Never in a million years would he thought he would see his "evil" little brother take up the duties of the Gemini Saint and fight for justice. This confrmed that the cloth had accepted Kanon as its current master, and Saga secretly wept with joy. Revealing that, although Kanon was not physically there, the Gemini Cloth was. Saga scoffed and blasted the illusion with a fist. Kanon simply replied that he had Athena's permission to guard over the temple from intruders. Saga remembered the time where Kanon had proposed the plan to assassinate the Grand Pope and Athena, and demanded an explanation from his younger brother as to what he was doing in this temple. The older Gemini urged his two companions to find a way out of the temple as he remained to confront the new Gemini Saint. Kanon's act of benevolence had earned their trust, after all.Ĭamus and Shura were baffled as to the identity of the man wearing Saga's Gemini cloth, but Saga himself immediately knew who it was that dared to don his old armor. It seems that the "final blow" Milo had used on him was not the deadly Antares, but a pressure point to stop the bleeding. Athena looked over to the Gemini, who was now on his knees and recovering. Milo then turned around and apologized to Athena before exiting the palace. Milo struck the final blow into Kanon, impaling his chest with one finger. Being Gemini Saga's younger brother, Kanon certainly had enough raw power to really hurt Milo if he wanted to. At the same time, Milo was silently bewildered that Kanon had not once retaliated. Determined to gain the trust of the saints, Kanon told Milo that he would receive the Antares to illustrate his new dedication to Athena. The Scorpio stalked towards the Gemini and prepared to release the final blow, the Antares. Milo contested that, while their goddess may have forgiven Kanon for his deeds, the other saints of Sanctuary cannot afford to do the same. Having heard the commotion, Athena herself walked out of her bedroom to plead with Milo to stop. A third and fourth wave followed, until a bloody Kanon was now writhing in pain from the holes in his body. Milo unleashed a second wave of needles, and Kanon still did not budge. Kanon, determined to prove his new allegiance, remained still and did not lash out. Kanon refused, and Milo immediately attacked the former Sea Dragon with his patented move, the "Scarlet Needle". Milo berated him and offered Kanon one last opportunity to leave unharmed. Kanon explained to Milo that he had come to terms with his past and was now a Saint of Athena. Main Article: Sea Dragon Kanon Saint Seiya (1986): Hades In a special prequel chapter, the authors re-tell the story of how Kanon escaped his prison and became Sea Dragon Kanon. In the end, however, Kanon was a man who would be remembered as not only a Saint of Athena, but an honorable one. After his redemption, Kanon became a much more centered person, much like his twin brother Gemini Saga, but Kanon still retained his ruthless personality with its harsh characteristics to some extent for instance, he berated Pegasus Seiya and Andromeda Shun harshly for hesitating to finish their enemies, for hesitation could be a weakness that their enemies could take advantage of. ![]() Nevertheless, Kanon is also notable for redeeming himself of his sins in the past, joining forces with Athena as the Gemini Gold Saint and wreaking havoc against Hades' army of Specters in the 21st century Holy War. Much to his dismay, however, his brother opposed this and incarcerated him at the Cape Sounion Prison.Īfter his escape from the prison, Kanon became the one person responsible for Poseidon's half-awakening, all the while posing as the true leader of the Mariners as the Marine General Sea Dragon to manipulate Poseidon's army in helping him achieve his desires, showing his manipulative and cunning nature. His conclusion was that their amazing and powerful abilities were gifts from the Gods for them to take advantage of. Kanon is a character with substantial importance in the Saint Seiya universe, being directly responsible for triggering two main events: The conflict of the 12 Temples by inciting Gemini Saga to succumb to his inner evil desires and the resurrection of the Sea God Poseidon.Īt first, Kanon was depicted as a treacherous man, always tempting his twin brother to use his power to advance his status and influence beyond that of a mere Gold Saint.
