Aiolia holds his loved ones close to his heart, particularly his servants Lithos Crysallis and Galan, whom he considers to be family. This conflict is behind the grudge he holds against the rest of the Gold Saints and it often drives him to fight them and challenge the Pope's commands.
However, it is made evident that even though he resents his brother and suffers immensely because of him, he still loves him very much. Through the story, it is hinted that he and Virgo Shaka are close friends.Īiolia is named after the mythical island Aiolia or Aeolia, residence of Aiolos, the god of winds.Īlso, due to his talent and power, he is referred to as the reincarnation of Achilles.īiography Early years Saint Seiya: Episode Gĭespite being a natural blond, Aiolia dyes his hair red to distance himself from his brother, whom most of Sanctuary believes to be a traitor. More than once, this creates some conflicts between him and the calm Aries Mu. This manga is placed seven years before the main story, showing Aiolia when he was still a young saint and was victim of the fake stories that tainted his brother image.Īiolia is impetuous and has a hot spirit that incites him to action. Even so, years later, the manga Saint Seiya Episode G was released, authored under Kurumada's commission by Okada Megumu, centered on the Gold Saints and having Aiolia as the main character. In some interview, Masami Kurumada stated that he intended to use Aiolia as the main character of his series, hence his early introduction in the manga, but later he decided to use Pegasus Seiya. Even during the time Aiolia thought Aiolos was a traitor, he showed immense respect toward his memory. Due to this, Aiolia works hard to prove his loyalty to the goddess and erase the shame his brother's actions bestowed upon them. He is the young brother of Sagittarius Aiolos, considered a traitor that attempted to kill Athena when she was still a baby. In his first appearance, Aiolia was present during the moment Pegasus Seiya was granted the Pegasus Bronze Cloth, and the status of Athena's Saint.Īiolia is shown as a reference in the Sanctuary due to his righteousness and strength. In the anime adaptation, due to a relative excess of yellow tones in Kurumada's design, Aiolia's hair color was modified to light brown to achieve a better color balance and contrast.Īiolia is the first Gold Saint introduced by Masami Kurumada in his manga, along with Saga disguised as the Pope, in vol.1, although their rank wasn't revealed until later volumes. In his manga, Kurumada gave Aiolia blonde hair.
As if characters can't be grey, KotZ (not going to call it Saint Seiya) split Mitsumasa Kido into two characters, one good while another evil. They should have not called it Saint Seiya if they only want to borrow the design characters and some scenes off the manga but getting the whole world view wrong or Americanized.
Dumb, sanitized, Americanized, likely homophobic take on Saint Seiya.
