Legend of Sanctuary

“	Are the Gods truly such grandiose beings? Before the Gods, are humans truly insignificant beings? But we mortals are always giving our best to live our lives to the fullest. You think you deserve to be a God? When instead of protecting us, you laugh at those who fight to survive? To bring forgiveness... And to care for humanity... Is this not the purpose of the Gods? Saori is always willing to share her life with us... She believes in us! ... HOW CAN YOU CALL YOURSELF A GOD IF YOU HAVE NO LOVE FOR HUMANITY? IF THIS IS WHAT GODS TRULY ARE, THEN I DON'T NEED ANY OF YOU!	„
	~ Seiya to Apollo

Background

Pegasus Seiya (天馬星座の星矢, Pegasasu no Seiya), also known as simply Seiya (星矢, Seiya) is the titular main protagonist of the Saint Seiya manga and anime series, written and illustrated by Masami Kurumada. Seiya is one of the Goddess Athena's 88 Saints, powerful warriors who fight using their bodies as weapons, defending the Earth from any evil that may threaten it. Being the one chosen by the Pegasus constellation, Seiya is one among the 52 Bronze Saints.

This version of Seiya is from the anime film, Saint Seiya: Heaven Chapter ~ Overture, an alternate continuity to the main Saint Seiya universe, taking place directly after the Hades Arc. In it, Seiya remains underneath the curse of Hades' Sword after he was stabbed by it at the end of the Hades Arc. Due to the Saints continuously rising up against the Gods, Athena has been replaced as Earth's guardian by Artemis, the Goddess of the Moon.

Seiya awakens from his coma and sets off to find Athena in order to save her, as her blood is slowly running out. Once it does, Earth will be completely overtake by the Gods of Olympus. Along his way, Seiya battle against the Angels, three powerful warriors sent from Olympus, slowly gaining back more and more of his Cosmo as he fights. Once he reaches Athena, he's able to expel the curse from his body.

Apollo, the God of the Sun, then descends onto the Earth, engaging in a duel with Seiya. Seiya during the fight awakens the Ninth Sense and his Pegasus Cloth upgrades itself to a higher level. While Seiya does not win, he is able to land a direct hit on Apollo. It was revealed that Apollo was in fact, a benevolent God, and erases the memories of Seiya being a Saint, in order to give him and Athena better lives.

It is speculated that Seiya would have regained his memories in a later part of the Heaven Chapter saga, which was intended to be a trilogy. However, the project was cancelled due to various complications, and the Heaven Chapter ~ Overture film was delegated as an alternate continuity rather than a direct sequel to the Saint Seiya series.

All previous abilities to a greater extent, Matter Manipulation, Soul Manipulation (Seventh Sense users can destroy matter below the level of Quarks.

Seiya should have this as well, due to being comparable by the time of Episode G - Assassin.).

All previous resistances.

Standard Equipment: Pegasus Bronze Cloth.

Intelligence: As one of the five Bronze Saints who defend Athena, Seiya is incredibly gifted. Having trained in the Sanctuary, a place where Soldiers trained day and night for hours on end in order to become Saints, Seiya is an expert in hand-to-hand combat. While fighting, he can analyze his opponent's fighting style, strengths, techniques and weaknesses. He's consistently been able to pick apart special techniques and completely nullify them, even if he's only seen them once. Seiya's skills would continuously grow, eventually allowing him to fight against various opponents that had far more experience in comparison to him, notably the Gold Saints and the various Gods that Seiya has fought against. However, Seiya can be impatient and reckless at times, and never really recieved any kind of formal education from Sanctuary, and lacks knowledge in many academic areas. However, thanks to Sanctuary training, he does have a legitimate grasp on human biology, astronomy and can speak Greek, giving him plenty of knowledge in other areas.

Weaknesses: Seiya is quite impulsive and brash at times. He can sometimes rush headfirst into situations without having a complete grasp on the situation. He never received much of a formal education, so he is a bit lacking in certain academic areas. However, many of these negative traits lessened over time as Seiya grew older, as he was able to improve himself over the years.

Notable Attacks/Techniques:

• 

  Pegasus Ryu-Sei Ken

• 

  Pegasus Rolling Crush

• 

  Pegasus Sui-Sei Ken

• Pegasus Ryu-Sei Ken (Pegasus Meteor Fist): Seiya's signature technique. Seiya elevates and burns his Cosmo, releasing an innumerable amount of energy-powered punches from his right fist, firing blasts of Cosmo energy at his opponent. It gets faster every single time Seiya uses it, as he continuously tries to perfect it every time.
• Pegasus Rolling Crush: Seiya grabs his opponent from behind, surrounding both him and his opponent in a veil of Cosmo. Seiya then jumps up at high speeds and pile-drives his enemy headfirst into the ground at similar speeds, causing massive damage.
• Pegasus Sui-Sei Ken (Pegasus Comet Fist): Seiya's most powerful attack. Rather than firing off many punches from his fist, Seiya focuses all of his Cosmo into one singular punch. This "Comet" is then fired at his opponent, inflicting heavy damage. In this continuity, this was the attack used to scar Apollo.

Key: Pegasus Bronze Cloth | New Pegasus Bronze Cloth

Note: This version of Seiya is from an alternate continuity where the events of Saint Seiya: Next Dimension and Saint Seiya: Episode G - Assassin did not occur, instead having the events of Heaven Chapter ~ Overture take place directly after the Hades Arc. As such, in addition to the new hax that he gains from the film, he should have all of the hax that he received in the previous Saint Seiya arcs, with the exception of the abilities given by the Sagittarius Gold Cloth and the Pegasus God Cloth, as he has neither in this film.
