This isnt limited to Seiya, Shiryu, Shun, Ikki, and Hyoga. But who’s your favorite saint? Mines Shun, he’s a queer feminine man meant to anger those who are queerphobic, and this hits different bc at the time this anime aired, queer portrayals were very far in between.

Best in what? Design? Lore? The strongest one? The coolest one? I would have to go with Shaka.

Doesn’t matter, just who’s your favorite.

Bronze : Ikki (the immortal bird) > Shiryu (pushing the sacrificial thing too far but a real example of chevalry) > Hyoga (extremely linked to his past) = Seiya (Pegasus Ryu sei ken!) > Shun (his pacifist side quickly becomes redundant)

Silver : Algol; Shaina; Yuzuriha

Gold : Shaka > Aiolia > Saga > Camus > Mu

God Warriors : Siegfried > Bud > Mime = Alberich

Marinas Generals : Kanon > Sorrento > Krishna > Isaac

Yeah, no. You're either misinformed or made that up.

To be honest there is a little manga exclusive scene where Shun gently reprimands Seiya for calling Aphrodite a weirdo, but that's an exception. Normally it was the other way around, it was implied that it was his femininity that was holding him back (thus Ikki claiming that Shun is actually stronger than him), Shun was trying to prove himself a man and his fight against Aphrodite can be interpreted as his struggle with gender dysphoria. Heck, even earlier in the series Seiya beat Misty because "he wasn't man enough to challenge himself and actually struggle". Kurumada likes to write about masculinity, sacrifice and honor, his series are very traditionalist and politically right-wing to the point of supporting medieval caste systems, religious martyrdom, traditional gender roles, and so on.

Well, I'm currently attempting to give the Saint Seiya series another try at the moment through the manga and the anime. But my favorite Saints so far would have to be Seiya and Shiryu. I like Seiya's confidence and wit when it comes to humbling arrogant opponents. As for Shiryu, I like his heart as a warrior. I also like his style of fighting as a Chinese martial artist.

Shiryu will always be my all time favorite, specially with the original anime cloth. But I also love Shaka (the BOSS mvp gold saint) and Fenrir (I really like his cloth lol)
