Fantastic episode! I knew Genbu was worth the hype! He was such a badass! He wiped the floor with Tokisada! I guess the rumor about him being Ikki's disciple was false because he was trained by Dohko as he planned for Genbu to don the libra gold cloth. By the way, it was nice seeing him all young again despite the scene being like a second long. Genbu is definitely a true saint, declaring his devotion to Athena not Mars.

Anyway, doesn't anyone think that Tokisada's Chrono Execution look VERY familiar? Hmm.... ;)

Also we got a glimpse of the scorpio gold saint and it was none other than Sonia! Kudos to those who predicted this! It seems that Medea once again handed over the cloth. I thought she looked fantastic! The half mask thing was genius! I definitely prefer this design over Paradox's. She reminds me of another character, hmm...I wonder who it can be.....oh I know.... Haman Karn of Zeta Gundam!
I bet some of you guys are thinking, 'what the heck are you smoking?' They kinda have the same hair.

Also I thought it was funny how Fudo was blasted away, screaming and all, by Eden and once he was gonna hit the floor, he assumes his indian style sitting position and was like 'wut up, dude?' Oh, I was a bit confused, was watching a raw, but did Fudo just let him go?

And one last thing, that ghost face thing on Tokisada's chest totally creeps me out.

I was wondering how the heck Mars an Medea are able to give gold cloths to other persons and how can they use Athena power. Most of omega gold saints are traitors to Athena, so cloths should abandon them if they still have they own will. Omega concept is in pieces and not even trying to make a balanced entirety.

By the way, fight between Genbu and Tokisada was great, so full of action :)

Even though Tokisada has useful skills, I disliked him, and what they did to aquarius cloth. Genbu was cool, I expected him to be on Mars' side when he first appeared and "stole" libra cloth, but I liked how it turned out (bronzies need some allies after all).

Everything starting to collapse made me wonder how many goldies will die this time..

Scorpio Sonia? Awesome! One more female gold saint, and new scorpio cloth looks best so far (from gold ones).

Fudo letting Eden go makes no sense to me. A major battle that could possibly decide the fate of the world, for better or worse, is happening and you decide to remain agnostic and hope everything will figure itself out in the end? Not plausible, you're a gold saint, take a stand.

One needs to congratulate Omega for having female gold saints and more important female characters than the original. Sonia looks like a badass.

Genbu truly deserves to be called a Gold Saint but, then again, like Kiki he is old school (he trained with Dohko after all). I liked this episode much more than previous ones.

ok, time to bash the episode (jk)

first of all, genbu was cool, i'm not surprised that both episodes that i liked had to do with dohko, even tho he is dead, he still makes things badass.

i'm not talking about fudo, everyone knows how i feel about him, meh.

so, old saint seiya fans, didnt genbu appear somewhere in the beginning of the original series? i faintly remember him as shiryu was telling someone about his past and the dude that used to train with him but decided to not become a saint, if i'm not being delusional, that was very well placed, one point for omega.

i totaly hated tokisada, hated the ghost thing on his chest, hated his moves, hated everything, even the copied motion from chrono execution (ahen, aurora execution) wasnt enough for me to like the character, everything from beginning to end that had this guy on, was just forced to the extreme.

talking about forced, yeah yeah sonia (the female with the best character design on this series btw) do look nice on her shiny gold cloth, but man...if the libra cloth chose genbu to be a real saint (one more to the list, leo, libra and aries, the rest are just random pseudo bosses with gold clothes gifted to them) why the hell the other clothes don't do anything? makes no sense as usual, medea is like the santa clauss of gold clothes right now, no me gusta. talk about the will of the clothes, minus one point to omega.

at least on the next episode i'll see soma and sonia, probably the only two non spineless characters on this series, and i hope that soma finally breaks sonia's mask so i can see her face ;)

ps: i loled at haruto stupidity at the end, "don't go" - nooo raaawwwr, *gets swalled*, yep, he had his kouga moment this episode, and even poor ryuho got caught with him...oh dear.

3/5 overall.

There was a character like that, but it wasn't Genbu, so no points for Omega :P

Awesome episode, Genku was indent awesome. You know it is getting serious, now that our heros need to be saved by other Gold Saints.

I admit though when I first saw Sonia, I didn't recongnise her, I thought it was another new character, I wasn't even sure if it was male or female. Did Madea just tell her to go kill Eden. That is cold, make her kill her brother who she loves dearly to proove loyalty, and that is your son lady. He was in your womb for goodness sake. But that is how commited she is to her ambition.

Though Sonia vs Eden, that probably wouldn't be a good battle, I don't see any of them going all out, unless Aria's name is brought up, than that would change things. Eden loves her, Sonia hates and blames her for corrupting Eden. But looks like that is not going to happen, might as well just have her and Soma settle things once and for all. And I hoping we see her without the mask. Though that could be bad news for Soma or good news, most likely bad news that more likely going to kill him than give her heart to him. Ha ha. If her mask comes off, I wonder if there will be a strong resembolence to Saori.

After seeing this episode I kind of wish Kuramada wrote ryuho into his canonverse and not adding a different name to Shiryu's new born. The connection between Genbu and shiryu was pretty cool I must admit. But like I've said before there are so many awesome elements in omega that I feel are very rushed. For example instead of going to the next fight, let's see a full episode of Genbu training under doko and his connection with Shiryu. But like some you have said it seems that this show is aiming for its 52 or so episode mark so none of the gold saints may not have a chance to have their story pushed any further. But they being said soild episode and next week should be interesting. Lol I kinda feel sorry for soma. He had to deal with a Hornet and now a scorpion?, be carefull with that sting!

I would glady watch 12 episodes about each gold saint background, and how / why they were chosen to be gold saints.

But since as we saw on the previous episodes, omega just messed everything around and medea is the santa claus of gold clothes, first tokisada and now sonia, so yeah pretty much there is no background for those two, but even tho i hate paradox for instance, i would've liked to see more about her past, the same with micaene and harbinger, heck even kiki (why not? we could even see some mu if that would happen) bleh, omega had so much potential, wasted on 90% of lame battles and 80% of spineless characters :(

wth man? no full fight against Virgo :/ Shaka vs Ikki was probably the best fight among the Saint Seiya series (followed closely by Manigoldo/Sage vs Thanatos an Albafica vs Minos) so i was looking forward to this since the arc started... o well at least i liked seeing Sonya as a Gold Saint an Gembu is kinda cool

Quality, quality animation everywhere!
Everything about this episode was anticlimatic and nonsensical.They would do better if they actually gave Haruto's his shining moment as Tokisada killed his bro, revenge time, yada yada. Now not only did they lost precious time to watch a fight that didn't resolve anything and only stated Genbu's badassery (and then they won't do much with him either because he now has to act as a pillar for the houses), they now have to fight with Tokisada AGAIN and lose even more time. Also Eden vs. Fudo didn't have any versus in it, so... yeah. Very dissapointing episode.

Not hard to be that. None of the fights have been good so far.
