What a way to die. I swear Minos could have been potentially the strongest judge b/c he can control people at will and thats so damn OP, but he just gets killed by the backlash of the explosion and that sucks so much.

I got 3 questions.
Why is Ikki just taking his sweet time? Is he injured?
Why didn't seiya and the others get gold cloths? They're owners are all dead now, so wtf?
And why is Pandora letting everyone just walk by her? Is she useless without her harp? She seemed so badass when she restrain Radymanthys back in sanctuary.

Overall it was pretty good but not as good as sanctuary.

Radymnthis was the strongest of the 3, or at the least the most relevant. IF the Gold Saints actually died due to the direct backlash, then it's not too far fetched to think Minos could have died from it even if he was relatively far away.

Ikki is badass like that, you know he takes his sweet time and plans his entrances for the perfect moment. Honestly he was crazy OP in this saga, loved it and love him, especially when he nearly finished off all 3 Judges simultaneously (my favorite character in SS, who had the best VA of all saint seiya characters up until this saga). His moments with Pandora have been great and entertaining as well, i'd ship them as an OTP if not for Esmeralda..

Seiya and the others don't get Gold Clothes, because then the enemies wouldn't be able to harp about how they are "only Bronze Saints" over 200+ times throughout the series.

Pandora didn't really have a great time to jump in to the fray. She was ordered away by Hades, and then Shaka and Athena show up. Seeing as how Shaka likely could have 1 shotted Hades, it was prudent of her not to jump in. Later the reinforcements keep streaming in, culminating with all the Gold Saints. Only some1 incredibly thickheaded or with obscene plot armor (i.e Seiya) would jump into that situation. I am however somewhat surprised/dissapointed that she didnt chat with Ikki at the last moment, although I guess it's likely we will be seeing that in the conclusion of the Hades Arc, along with whatever other backstory devolpments between Pandora/Ikki.

Imo this was actually the best Arc in the show, by a significant margin, even with the nearly criminal VA changes (Shun and Kiki are particularly facepalm worthy).

Shiryu finally used a different attack.
Stop the sequels high-ranking stupidity.
Group franchises in Top Anime page.
Because Gintama is just "one" anime and not 5.

WTF?! I thought Seiya was gonna have armor wings like he did in the opening!
I'm gonna miss the gold saints, I hope to see them, even as souls, in the next arc.
Athena's body is entrapped inside a vase? Looked really creepy.
I wonder why Pandora had a flashback of her family tragedy just as Ikki passed by her? Did he had anything to do with it?
