Mitsumasa Kido

(城戸光政, Kido Mitsumasa?)

Seiyu: Kouhei Miyauchi (宮内 幸平, Miyauchi Kōhei?)

Foster grandfather of Saori, who adopted her and took her to Japan after finding a dying Sagittarius Aiolos in Sanctuary. In the manga, it was revealed that he was actually the birth father of all the orphans he sent around the world to be trained as Saints. In the anime, he merely took the children from various orphanages (sometimes even kidnapping them, as shown in Seiya's case), and sent them for their training. In order to hide the Sagittarius cloth from Sanctuary, he had people put additional work on it to mask the original shape of the Sagittarius cloth. Just before he die, he told Saori everything regarding the encounter with Aiolos in Sanctuary.
