comment
Plot Armor: Being a prequel to Saint Seiya, every Gold Saint (except Aioros) is Saved by Canon. The only reason why it's not a case of Invincible Hero is because they normally end a bloody mess after the big fights.

Mauve Shirt: Jon, an American man who helps Leo get into the nuclear power plant at the start of the manga. His introduction suggested that he was going to be the Badass Normal Audience Surrogate of the story, but he pulls a Heroic Sacrifice so Aiolia can save the day less than two chapters in. Though it gave the Gold Saint motivation to act later in the story, it wasn't needed.

Foregone Conclusion
 Saint Seiya: Episode.G (Manga) / int_3bc88a7f
comment
Foregone Conclusion: As an Immediate Prequel to the original series (which is set in 1986), the reader knows the Gold Saints, save Aioros, are alive by the time of the Sanctuary Saga of the original manga - which may be the biggest drawback to fully appreciate the series.

Adaptational Heroism: Shura, carrying this from the first anime series. In the classic manga, he willingly supported Saga plans and played a role in murdering Aioros, while in this manga he was Forced into Evil by Saga's Genrō Maō Ken.

Brainwashed: Being an Immediate Prequel to the original manga (which is set in 1986), here two of the Gold Saints are already brainwashed by this time: Shura, who killed Aioros, and Saga, masquerading as the Pope since 1973.

All Myths Are True

comment
All Myths Are True: Saint Seiya and its spin-offs are mostly based in Graeco-Roman mythology. However, Episode G published a series of prequel chapters titled Volume 0: Aioros, where Aioros and his brother Aioria battle against Egyptian god Apophis.

Posthumous Character: The manga is set in 1979, before the events of the original manga. Due to this, Aioros, who died before the events of the original manga, is shown alive in his flashbacks, before his canon demise.

Didn't Think This Through: The Titans needed Aiolia's lightning to regenerate Chronus' memories and powers. What do they do? Kidnap Lythos to enrage him and try to kill him about nearly ten times. Pontus really forgot to give them their common sense before their resurrection.

Artistic License – Nuclear Physics: The series opens with Leo Aiolia infiltrating a nuclear power plant that was under the control of a disgruntled cosmo-user who hadn't been given a cloth and deemed a saint despite his power. Expositing government officials explain that if the reactor—cut to an image of a cooling tower, not a reactor—goes critical, it will melt through the earth, to China. Nevermind the fact that critical reaction is actually the normal state of a reactor.
