![]() Aiolia tries to defeat Seiya and take the Cloth from him, but sees a vision of his deceased brother telling him that Seiya is a true protector of Athena. Seiya manages to defeat all three Silver Saints. Seiya is unable to fend off the three Silver Saints but the Gold Cloth of Sagittarius awakens, and assembles itself over Seiya. Three Silver Saints, Musca Dio, Canis Major Sirius, and Heracles Algethi appear, and mock Aiolia for not finishing off Seiya. Aiolia spares Seiya, out of respect for Shaina's sacrifice. Shaina revives, jumps in the way to save Seiya, and is critically injured. Aiolia knocks Shaina out and fights Seiya. When Aiolia appears in Japan, Seiya and Ophiuchus Shaina are fighting. He orders Aiolia to go to Japan to kill Saori Kido, Athena's incarnation during the 20th century, and her renegade Bronze Saints who possess the Gold Cloth of Sagittarius. The Pope summons Aiolia and the Scorpio Gold Saint, Milo, to his hall and says The Gold Cloths of Aries, Libra and Sagittarius are missing. Plot overview File:Saint-Aioria-manga.pngĪiolia, wearing his headpiece, in a panel from the manga in vol.9. Kurumada named Aiolia after the mythical island Aiolia or Aeolia, residence of Aiolos, the god of winds. Through the storyline, it is hinted that he and Virgo Shaka are close friends. More than once, this creates some conflicts between him and the calm Aries Mu. This manga is placed seven years before the main story of the original Saint Seiya manga, showing Aiolia when he was still a young Saint and was victim of the false stories that tainted his brother's image.Īiolia is impetuous and has hot-tempered, which incites him to action. Even so, years later, the spin-off manga Saint Seiya Episode G was released, authored under Kurumada's commission by Megumu Okada, and centered on the Gold Saints, having Aiolia as the main character. In an 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 and love 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 younger 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 Saint of Athena.Īiolia is regarded as an exemplary young man 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 Masami Kurumada subscribes to the revered Osamu Tezuka's Star System, (a stable cast of characters which play a different or similar role in the author's various works, sometimes with the same personality and sometimes with an entirely new one), he designed Aiolia's appearance very similar to Zaji, the main character in Raimei no Zaji, a manga that Kurumada wrote and drew years before Saint Seiya.
