Talk:Saint Seiya

message: Is there anyone in Saint Seiya who can fly and/or has superhuman strength? I am asking this so I can add them within these categories: :Category:Anime and manga characters who can fly/:Category:Anime and manga characters with superhuman strength. ~I'm anonymous
:The angels from the Tenkai-hen film can legitimately fly and actually have wings.  Many of the other characters end up in the air a lot, but they don't actually have wings.  I think the 5 main bronze saints can also fly when they get their God cloths, but do not take my word for that one, as I haven't actually read that far.  Also, most of the characters tend to have pretty huge strength, but this is, I believe, due to their Saint training.  I'm not sure if it's superhuman, as they don't usually uproot buildings or anything...  Hope that helps.  Aurora Execution (talk) 01:23, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Saint Seiya characters 

message: In my opinion we are giving article to a lot of minor characters like wolf Nachi, Lionet Ban, Troll Iwan and may others. Note that this characters fight only once (most of them) and some only appear in one chapter or episode of manga, even Ban once said "Finally my first line!" in the 12 temple saga. We could merge some to Minor spectres and minor saints and then create artcle for more important characters of other mangas like some titans, Bennu Kagaho or create an article for Tenma explaining NDIM and LOSTC.

:You used the wrong discussion page for this. But i really don't see the point of removing the articles. And if you want to do the Titans pages then go ahead. But you would have to use another character page since they are in the non-canon universe. Besides the Titans already have bio's in their Episode G article. And Tenma has one in the Next Dimension article. So there's no need for articles concerning them as of yet.--Refuteku (talk) 19:32, 25 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Ok, Ill remove that thing, but it doesnt bother having more than 70 articles for characters that only appear once? And its Lost Canvas canon? 
Tintor2 17:50, 25 November  2007 (UTC)
Lost Canvas isn't canon, no. --Refuteku (talk) 21:03, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

text: Those characters were deleted because they were terribly minor. Now there is no need to create concepts articles. Even by themselves, the minor characters wouldnt pass the Wikipedia:Notability (fiction) even if we look like a lot for reception. My idea is to leave articles to main characters (check YuYu Hakusho, Naruto, etc) the episode g characters info may need to be merged in the original articles to keep a good length without adding fancruft. Minor characters can be merged in the lists of characters of create a list of villains. If those minor characters appear only for one episode or they dont have importance, they can be deleted without problems.Tintor2 (talk) 18:49, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

text: And about what I said last November of creating articles to titans, I retract (I was a rookie in that time). We wouldnt also find reception for that and the list of epg characters doesnt seem to lack things.Tintor2 (talk) 18:51, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Too much minor character files and lack of important files!!! 

message: The whole series has constantly themes such as friendship, responsibility, justice and self sacrifice (to mention a few), should this be mentioned in the article? (or is this considered "original research"?)  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.180.142.4 (talk) 23:01, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, the themes are pretty obvious and most fans would agree on these qualities. But how do you cite that? I don't think any anime critic will write an article on it any time soon.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.126.77.81 (talk) 06:54, 9 September 2008 (UTC)

message: As far as I have been searching in ANN and the official publisher the series name is Saint Seiya Episode.G (聖闘士星矢EPISODE.G) and not Saint Seiya Episode G, so I guess the we need to add the dot to the series title. Thoughts?--Tintor2 (talk) 18:06, 1 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The infobox had the period before my cleanup, but I removed it because the article doesn't have the period. If sources show the official title with the period, though, it should be changed accordingly. —Dinoguy1000 18:13, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Episode G vs Episode.G

message: Hi, I've been working on cleaning up the spelling and grammar of the English language Saint Seiya wikipedia articles.  I've noticed that the saint seiya films article has been suggested for deletion because it's supposedly redundant and all the information in the article is supposedly already covered.  Unfortunately, this is not the case.  
Out of the five films in the article, only three have their own individual articles.  The other two would disapper if the general films article is removed.  I have no issue with deleting the films article, but ONLY AFTER the last two films have their own articles.  I don't want to take down the deletion banner without discussing this first, since it says not to put the deletion banner back up if it's taken down.  However, if someone makes articles for the second two films, I have no issue with deleting the general films article then.
However, from some of the comments in some above discussions, there is also someone saying that the individual film articles are not required, and they should be merged into the general films article.  The issue here is that we should probably only keep one of the two.  Either we have five separate film articles and no general film article, or one longer general film article with no separate articles.  That will clean it up a lot.  
Also, if no one responds before the time is up on the suggestion for deletion timer, I will take down the deletion banner and leave my explanation.  However, if anyone manages to get either the five separate articles, or improves the current main article, they can definitely delete whatever articles are truly redundant after that.

message: Saint Seiya was a great success in some countries of Western Europe, South America and Eastern Asia. Saint Seiya was also a revolution for the Yoroi mahō shōnen anime. Saint Seiya inspired many authors.
Ex:
*Hajime Yatate's Yoroiden Samurai Troopers
*Hiroshi Kawamoto's Tenkū Senki Shurato
*Yoshihiro Togashi's Yū Yū Hakusho
*Tite Kubo's BLEACH
*CLAMP's Magic Knight Rayearth
Saint Seiya isn't "Low-importance anime and manga article".  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 187.7.222.206 (talk) 19:16, 17 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: You can always ask for the article to be reassessed at WP:ANIME/ASSESS. However, you will need to show evidence that the series has achieved wide commercial success or critically acclaimed outside of Japan. At the moment, the article is week on such evidence. --Farix (Talk) 00:53, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

text: Also keep in mind that, ultimately, the importance rating is only a reflection of the importance of this article to WikiProject Anime and manga; it shouldn't be interpreted as a statement of the series' importance in any other context (even though we use other such contexts to assign importance in the first place). 「ダイノガイ千？！」? · Talk⇒Dinoguy1000 16:51, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Low Importance? NEVER

message: I was thinking that it would be a good idea to create an article that includes all the characters' techniques in Saint Seiya. The article would include all the techniques in Kurumada's original manga, Episode G and Lost Canvas. And a short description, also the names in japanese and translations, kanji, kana, etc. The article would be useful as some of this info is already available in character articles and descriptions, and compiling it would make it easier to read or to find, and there are other manga that have articles like this, such as Tetsuo Hara and Buronson's Hokuto no Ken. Its a proposal I had in mind, and if you guys agree, I am willing to write the article. Let me know what you think.  Onikiri (talk) 23:20, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: That type of article could be considered WP:Fancruft (only a few characters share techniques) and would fail WP:Notability.Tintor2 (talk) 23:42, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

text: i agree with Tintor2. That is too much fancruft and doesn't warrant its own article.--Refuteku (talk) 19:35, 8 March 2010 (UTC)

message: I noticed that the name is the Japanese version. Wiki goes by the most common English name. and Viz media calls it knights of the zodiac as well, shouldn't we rename this article to Knights of the zodiac considering?Bread Ninja (talk) 18:33, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Viz uses both Saint Seiya and Knights of the Zodiac as a title .Tintor2 (talk) 18:37, 9 March 2010 (UTC)

text: The longest US DVD release called it "Saint Seiya". We should also take into account the fact that the series is very old (1986) but was only very recently released in the US, and the name "Knights of the Zodiac" exists only since 2004. So we have potentially 18 years worth of english publications which could only refer to the series as Saint Seiya before it was officially released in english. In my opinion, it's clear english speaking countries are more familiar with StS than KotZ. And let's not forget that KotZ generally refers to the edited version of the TV show, wildly unpopular among fans...Folken de Fanel (talk) 21:09, 18 March 2010 (UTC)

As many of you probably know already, a live action movie is currently being developed.
