No, Okada cannot change Kurumada's words. He can add to the franchise, but he cannot contradict Kurumada. Whenever there is a contradiction, we default to Kurumada as he is the original author and has more weight in the franchise compared to someone like Okada.Okada changed many descriptions from the original manga and also added new concepts. In this case he changed the description of the Athena Exclamation.
Okada cannot change the description of the Athena Exclamation. His explanation isn't even a contradiction, it's a flowery rephrasing of what is already established in the original manga written by Kurumada. You're intentionally taking an interpretation that suits your own head canon narrative that isn't consistent with any description of the technique in all of Saint Seiya. Your head canon contradicts the original manga where it is established the AE = Big Bang. Okada stated the AE can tear apart the universe - which means it can destroy it as that's the pretense written by Kurumada who is the orignal author. Okada cannot retcon Kurumada.
This is not relevant to anything I said. The Athena Exclamation does not have spatial manipulation. The Gold Saints broke a hole in Yomotsu Hirasaka which is the boundary between life and death. This is stated in the classic manga. We know the Gold Saints are capable of escaping there due to Deathmask. They did not break a hole in spacetime, the Athena Exclamation cannot do that.Athena created a distortion in space and time when she created the path to Olympus. Athena also teleports Seiya and company away from the Underworld at the end of the battle. This is not impressive for the power of the goddess. Shaka also has that power.
No, there is no hint of symbolism. He created a literal Big Bang as seen in the kanji, no hint of "macrocosmo" was used as the literal kanji "uchuu" was used which is literal universe. It is also elaborated all over the franchise the 7th sense can reach the Big Bang via miracles.It is just an internal big bang because of the symbolism of the cosmos as a mini-universe. Even Aldebaran easily stops Seiya's attack described as a big bang with one hand, and Aldebaran does not have the power of an Athena Exclamation.
Aldebaran catching it is an outlier for Aldebaran, not the 7th sense where it is established that Saints can create literal Big Bangs with miracles through the 7th sense which Seiya did when he awoken the 7th sense.
No. This is not correct. You clearly do not know what a contradiction is. The original manga establishes God Cloths require an exchange of infinite cosmo. Okada NOT MENTIONING that infinite cosmo is exchanged, is NOT a contradiction. Kurumada wrote in the original manga that infinite cosmos is required to activate a God Cloth, Okada did not say "there is no infinite cosmo" therefore you cannot establish there is a contradiction.A concept introduced in a different way in this manga, where the characters never mentioned that they raised their cosmos to infinity. We also saw how the Gold Cloth of that universe are always in the form of a God Cloth, so they don't have to raise their cosmos to awaken these armors.
THE ABSENCE OF INFORMATION IS NOT A CONTRADICTION. A contradiction requires a diametrically opposed statement to be given, to conclude there are two inconsolable facts.
Furthermore, the God Cloth Saints do not have enough screen-time to support your claim "they are always in God Cloth". That is head canon. Just because we only see them in God Cloth for an unknown period of time does not support your claim. As with Shun, his cloth only changed back when he took it off.
I did not make this claim. Low 2-C is an infinitely large tier regardless, there would still be no contradiction, but let me explain this to you again. The power of the 7th sense is to allow the user to reach Big Bangs via MIRACLES. Miracles are a concept introduced in Kurumada's manga "Saint Seiya". They allow Saints to do the impossible and amp their stats. The 7th sense has the ability to allow a Saint to access the miraculous energy of the primordial Big Bang.Aldebaran does not have the power of an Athena Exclamation.
Yes it was, but you're intentionally inventing head canon to arrive at a faulty conclusion. The Athena Exclamation is established in the classic manga written by Kurumada that it is a technique with the power of the Big Bang.The Athena Exclamation is never described with the power of a big bang in this manga. The Virgo Cloth and Shaka were completely disintegrated by the Athena Exclamation. As I explained, Saga and company were never hit by the full power of the Athena Exclamation, because Shiryu disperses the attack.
If destroying or damaging a Gold Cloth was impressive, even Niobe destroys Taurus' Gold Cloth after killing him, and Suikyo half dead damaged Libra's Gold Cloth and a Dohko (novice) overcame the power of that attack. This does not indicate that these characters have the power of the Athena Exclamation.
The impressive thing about Thanatos' feat is that he destroyed the Gold Cloth and defeated Seiya and company with one attack, and then we saw how Hypnos was able to defeat Shun with God Cloth, so the gods were comparable to the God Saints. Hypnos and Thanatos (as two of the most powerful gods, only surpassed by the Olympians) are much more powerful than Aiolos.
The Virgo cloth was never destroyed, you'd have to prove Shaka can recreate his cloth, an ability he's NEVER shown to do. Among the Gold Saints, only Mu has the ability to repair cloths, this is shown in classic and G.
Yes, I am glad we agree that Okada's scaling is consistent. The incomplete 9th sense does not reach he level of the Gods, that is the realm of the Dunamis. You misunderstandthe meaning of "Aiolos is portrayed as..." a depiction isn't inherently accurate. Aiolos is merely presented as on the level of low tier Gods, I never made the claim he could beat Thanatos or Hypnos, in-fact if you read my quick scale, I literally scaled them above him.
Anyway Alonik if you wish to continue this discussion, PM me. It's cluttering up the thread.
