Original subtitles

[narrator] It is said that every several hundred years,

the goddess Athena is reincarnated.

And now a new Athena has been born into this world,

but, this time, under a dark prophecy that she will lead mankind to ruin.

The warriors who protected the goddess Athena were known as Knights.

Today, a new generation of Knights control the fate of the world.

They are called the Knights of the Zodiac.

[narrator] Previously on Saint Seiya...

Farewell, my friends!

SCARLET NEEDLE ANTARES!

DIAMOND DUST!

Take this!

Milady!

UNICORN GALLOP!

[Mylock] You've come.

We'll protect Sienna!

[breathing in agreement]

Ah...! Jab?

You guys got here right in time.

What took you so long?!

Sorry Mylock,

we've been busy with a little training... in hell!

Hmph. I'm sure you Bronze Knights are formidable against other opponents.

But I'm a Silver Knight, a combat specialist.

[chuckle] I suppose I should be scared. But I'm not.

[chuckle] I salute your bravado.

Gee thanks, but if you wanna see how far I can go,

there's an old arena or something over there.

It's the perfect spot for a fight.

If you insist, I'll accept your challenge...

little Bronze Knight.

But I expect to be entertained.

[Shaun] Seiya, wait...

What's wrong?

I can run on my own.

You can let me down now.

Okay, I'm good. Let's go!

Alright...

Next stop: the House of Sagittarius!

[sigh] Another flame's gone out...

My lady...

[exhales]

[exhales]

-Boo! -Aagh!

-I got you good, old man. Hee-hee-hee! -Kiki?!

Quit playing around. Now's not the time.

[giggle] Sorry.

We're back!

That's great...

But where are Mu and Aldebaran? We need them!

[sigh] It's kind of a long story.

[Mylock] What?!

We lost two Gold Knights and Marin?!

And on top of that, the Grand Master is a fake...?

That's why I'm back

to let the other Gold Knights know our true enemy is the Grand Master.

When they know the truth,

we might be able to end this fight once and for all.

I see... Then you should hurry.

I'll stay here and protect Lady Sienna.

Hm.

I better stick around here, too.

I doubt the old man can handle the job all by himself.

Excuse me?!

Or I can go. If you want. [giggle]

[frustrated]

I'm just kidding!

I'm counting on you, Kiki.

[giggle]

Aww. Now all I have is the sleeping princess

and the old man to keep me company?

But don't worry!

If anything happens, I can use my telekinesis to...

[surprised]

Another battle is brewing...

We'll settle things here, Cerberus Dante.

Very well, Jab...

Athena's not around, so you can finally give me all you've got.

What's that supposed to mean?

[scornful laugh]

It would be a shame to hear you complain that how you held yourself back,

all because you didn't want to hurt the lady.

[chuckle] Who knew Silver Knights could be so generous?

If I were you, I'd be more worried about my own neck.

Fool...

You still don't understand the vast difference between Bronze and Silver.

That may have been true before...

Back then, we were beaten by Seiya and the others,

and our pride was shredded!

That's why we suffered and endured...

and went through our own hellish training over and over.

But now, as one of Athena's Knights. I won't let myself lose again!

[dismissive laugh]

Well if you're finished with your speech, make your move.

You seem confident now,

but even if you get past me,

you'll never make it past Seiya and the others.

What did you just say!?

Sorry, did I strike a nerve?

I'm tired of your whining...

Come face me, all five of you!

As if we'd do something so cowardly.

Maybe you're the one who needs help from your friends.

[Morris] Sounds like fun,

mind we join in?

[Ichi] Who the hell is that?!

And where did those waves come from?!

Do you always have to make such a dramatic entrance, Morris?

My entrance isn't the only thing that's dramatic, Asterion...

Watch this!

WHALE-SPOUT BOMBER!

Aaaaugh!

[pained]

[attacking yell]

[winces]

-Allow me to warm things up. -What?!

Now witness my true power!

MILLION PHANTOM ATTACK!

Gwaaaargh!

Agh!

Ichi! Ban!

How boring.

But what else would you expect from Bronze Knights?

Why did you interfere?

Come now, Dante.

You can't take all the fun for yourself.

Very well. But don't touch Unicorn Jab.

He's mine...

Hey, Ichi... you still alive?

Yeah... Somehow...

Good. You two stay back and rest...

Let us handle this.

[pained]

This isn't gonna be easy.

Blame Jab.

He's the one who told Dante to call his friends.

Shut it, Nach!

Our job remains the same!

We'll crush them here!

Nach! Geki! Listen up! Give it all you've got!

Who died and made you boss?!

Who cares? Just smash the foe in front of you.

Ha! Give it your best... little Bronze Knights...

Great! Now's the time to show him what we can do!

Let's go, guys!

Yeeeaaah!

-[attacking yell] -[attacking yell]

-[jumping effort] -Tch!

[Morris] You're the one called Geki, aren't you?

Quite a physique you have.

You're not so bad yourself, Morris.

[Geki] It's not just his strength.

It's like there aren't any holes in his defense...

What's wrong? Too scared to move?

Nope...

[moan]

Hmph! HANGING BEAR!

My deadliest weapons are these two arms!

-nothing can pry them loose! -[moan]

In the wilds of the Rocky Mountains I trained against giant grizzly bears!

I must have lifted hundreds like this!

Now surrender or I'll break your neck!

Surrender?

You think I'm one of your grizzly bears?

-Ridiculous! -[frustrated]

WHALE-SPOUT BOMBER!

[surprised]

So this is what a Silver Knight can do...

But Jab, you showed us your spirit as a Knight...

If I'm going to pay you back, I can't fail here.

I thought you were Shaun?!

[Ban] Ha! You lost too?

I can't believe you let her beat you...

There's nothing else to wait for.

Let's go home.

Yeah, I'm starving!

Hey! Are you guys seriously just gonna laugh this off?!

...?!

What are you trying to say?

I'm saying you guys are taking this too lightly!

You lost, but you're laughing like you didn't.

Don't you have any pride?

[punching effort]

That's enough. Be Quiet!

Make me!

[effort]

Stop it Jab!

[panting]

Jab?

I... I... hate this.

I didn't go through all that hell

just to be tossed into the desert and laughed at.

I know this sounds stupid but...

I felt like I was the hero of my own story.

I mean I trained as hard as I possibly could.

I earned the Unicorn Armor.

Became one of Athena's Knights.

So, what will you do now?

That's obvious. I'm going to train all over again.

So I can reclaim myself... it's the only way.

[sigh] I hate to break it to you.

But you're a complete idiot.

[chuckle] Agreed.

I thought you were smarter than that.

[tch] Well, should we get movin'?

Yeah, I guess so...

Great! Now we can all be idiots together!

Wait, so you guys are in?!?

Come on, Jab.

This fight ain't over yet.

Hell, it's just getting started

But first [grinning] we gotta get some food.

[Geki] After that, we willingly stepped back into training,

or as I like to call it, hell.

[exerting strength]

[exerting strength]

-[punching effort] -Hraaaaugh!

What the...?! [punching yell]

[attacking yell]

[pained]

Now, it's my turn!

HANGING GRIZZLY!

Gah! Let go of me!

Never!

[Geki] The rest is up to you... friends!

Geki!

[frustrated] What the hell?

Ugh...

I underestimated you because you're Bronze...

But you're... pretty... good.

I'd heard rumors that some Silver Knight are light on their feet.

Light on their feet?

Do you think that's all it takes to become a Silver Knight?

Why don't you show me what it takes, Asterion.

Sounds like you're in a hurry to die.

That's fine by me, but it's too cramped here.

Let's change up the scenery.

Do you think a Bronze Knight fast enough to keep up with me?

A wolf is swift when it comes down to chasing its prey!

Not bad, for a Bronze Knight.

[heavy breathing] [chuckle]

But how will you handle this?

Check these moves!

MILLION PHANTOM ATTACK!

I've seen this before!

[chuckle] [impact yell]

Huh? ahhhhh...

[pained]

Speed isn't the only power you have.

That's right.

You can't escape my high-density attacks,

not when I have the ability to predict your moves!

That may be... but I crawled through hell once!

I can't let you beat me!

Now it's time for you to taste the fangs of the wolf!

DEAD HOWLING!

What!?

[bounce pain]

Hmph... The playful bite of a puppy is far from a real attack.

Ugh...

Still breathing, are you?

Well, you won't be for long.

I'm not done...

we Bronze Knights don't know when to give up.

You know...

The thing about wolves is... they live in packs.

But some stray from the group and seek their own way as lone wolves.

Hrraaaah!

Have you lost your mind?

Even if your Armor is only Bronze, removing it proves you have a death wish.

Hmph. The Grand Master's dogs might not understand,

but a lone wolf is always prepared to die.

Then I'll gladly finish you off for good!

MILLION PHANTOM ATTACK!

Impossible!

He's so quick without his armor?!

Jab... It was fun running with you guys!

Rraaaagh!!

His Cosmo flared up, but now it's almost gone...

Nach, what are you thinking?!

Rraaaagh!!

DEAD HOWLING!

Foolish pup!

I can predict your attacks.

It's too easy to finish you by counter-attacking!

[gasp] Nach reversed my counter!

He's so fast, I can't recover--!

that means you are going to kill us both...

So this is the spirit of the wolf!

[Jab] Geki... Nach...!

Your determination's inspiring...

I'll win this fight for both of you!

[attacking yell]

Take this, Dante!

UNICORN GALLOP!

[attacking yell]

Damn it!

You have zero technique.

Agh!

What's wrong? Where did all that bravado go?

Heh... [spits out blood]

You really think your silly ball and chain can beat me?

Ok, let's see if you can handle this.

[frustrated]

INFERNO HURRICANE!

Burned out already? And after all that talk.

...?!

An attack like that is pretty easy to handle... if you've got guts!

-What?! -I can tell that you're still holding back.

How would a mere Bronze know what I am capable of?

Keep acting all high and mighty, you'll go past the point of no return.

On second thought, it might be too late.

What's your endgame here?

That's a stupid question.

Are you really willing to die for this?

I don't plan on dying.

I'm just tired of being a coward.

I won't betray myself again.

Very well...

I didn't want to use this move on a measly Bronze Knight...

But you deserve it.

Now that's a cute trick.

I've released the hound that guards the gates of hell!

Now witness his true form!

INFERNO HURRICANE!

[frustrated]

[pained]

[breathing hard]

[breathing hard]

You're pretty good at juggling, Dante...

But all a Knight really needs to fight is their own body...

Ha! Says the freshly minted Bronze Knight.

[pained] My experience doesn't matter...

What matters is my determination...

It was destiny,

long ago when my dad and I visited the Alman Kido's mansion.

I met the goddess.

She was so noble and beautiful...

When I saw her, I knew it would be my destiny to protect her.

I was sure that she'd be the girl in my story

and I was going to be the hero.

Of course, a kid's dreams don't go as planned...

I'm not going to let anyone put me down for following my destiny!

And I won't let you lay a finger on Sienna!

This time the flames of hell will burn you away.

INFERNO HURRICANE!

Your attack is weak!

-What?! -UNICORN GALLOP!

Gaaaagh!

[pained]

[losing his consciousness]

[breathing hard]

You fought hard...

Much respect Silver Knight Dante.

[pained]

But I'm the hero of this story...

Me...! [breathing]

[ballad playing]

? Believe me, I'm speechless ?

? I wish that I could say ?

? Those words You whispered so sweetly ?

? And maybe I'll regret this ?

? But I've gotta be honest ?

? 'Cause we made a promise ?

? I won't break it now ?

? I wish I could hold you ?

? But how could I be so unfair ?

? To lead us to nowhere? ?

? We've both been down that road before ?

? And if this should end us ?

? Please know that I'm helpless ?

? I've made up my mind ?

? It's not that I don't feel ?

? The feelings you do ?

? It's just my heart's not ready yet ?

? For something so soon ?

-? Oh, no, no ? -? Yeah ?

? It's just my heart's not ready yet ?

-? Ain't ready ? -? For somebody new ?

? No ?

? Yeah ?

? Oh ?
