Saint Seiya: The Lost Canvas (2009–2011): Season 1, Episode 2 - Hadesu kakusei: Awakening of Hades - full transcript

Chapter 2 Hades' Awakening

Greece. The Sanctuary.

Since the age of myth,

this place has been the home of Athena's Saints,
those who protect justice and peace in the world.

The Pope governs the land here, and commands the Saints of the 88 Constellations.

In the heart of the Sanctuary,

there exists the 12 Zodiac Houses, each guarded by a Gold Saint.

Further in, beyond the Pope's hall, you'll find Athena's chamber.

From there, the descended Athena overlooks the Sanctuary.

The training of Saint candidates is always so intense.

But among these people, only a few become Saints.

Are you Tenma, the newcomer?

Do you want to spar with me?

Don't do that!

Libra Dohko-sama brought him back personally.

He deciphered the Cosmo all by himself.

He's no small fry.

You might not be his match...

What nonsense.

Who do you think I am?

I'm Yato-sama, the person closest to being a Saint here.

There's no way I would lose!

I've heard about that Yato fellow.

See what I mean?

Rumours say that he's a violent person.

So that's you.

Well, it's not like I have the right to judge others.

Nice to meet you.

Don't mess with me!

En garde!

Bring it on!

Oh?

For a moment, I thought you had potential.

That's all you have?

With this, you want to become an Athena's Saint?

Don't make me laugh!

You...

...should just go home.

Dohko-sama must have made a blunder somewhere.

Damn!

Making a fool out of me!

Ouch!

You're pathetic, Tenma.

Dohko, you've returned.

I just finished my reconnaissance mission.

By the way, you've been here for a few months already.

You still can't shatter this kind of rock?

Of course I can! It's just a rock!

You witnessed it before, didn't you?

On the night of the storm...

I could do it then.

But why can't I do it now?

That's because you haven't understood the principles of destruction.

Principles of destruction?

Yes.

Firstly, you need to understand that everything in this world is made up of atoms.

In this grand universe, everything is made
up of atoms born from the Big Bang.

The power of us Saints comes from

refining and exploding the universe within us, otherwise known as the Cosmo.

In other words,

we smash the atoms.

On that day, you were preoccupied with saving your friends,

and you subconsciously refined your Cosmo to its limits,

thus, breaking that rock.

If, like that time, you focus your mind on breaking the rock...

Didn't you make a promise that you'll definitely become a Saint before going home?

Fortunately, I'll be staying at the Sanctuary for a while.

I would love to make you work hard everyday.

Damn it!

I know that I promised him!

Alone...

He must have finished tons of paintings already....

Bring it on!

Alone?

It really is!

Wait!

A girl?

Sa...

Sasha?

Why do you know my name?

It really is you!

It's me, Tenma!

Tenma?

We grew up together with Alone, in the same orphanage!

I never thought that you'd end up at the Sanctuary after being adopted.

You lost your childhood memories?

Look, this is the wreath which you made!

You're really Tenma?

It's been so long.

Come on.

I have not forgotten.

The reckless Tenma... And the kind-hearted Alone-niisan...

Even after coming here, I've never stopped thinking about you guys.

Oh yeah, Sasha.

Why are you here?

Alone would be surprised if he knew.

Tenma, you came to the Sanctuary in order to become a Saint?

That's right! I promised Alone that I would become a Saint, no matter what.

What are you doing in the Sanctuary?

I...

I...

Sasha, run!

Tenma!

There's a lively little kitten over here!

Looks like fun!

I came here for Athena's head, but...

I've found a little toy to play with!

Damn!

Who the hell are you?!

I'm Worm Raimi-sama of the Terrestrial Submission Star.

It is my hobby to enjoy the cries of women and girls!

Stop it! Get your hands off Sasha!

It's useless, no matter how much you squirm!

With your dinky power, it's impossible to break free of my worms!

So, little lady...

How would you cry out?

Damn!

How can I lose to this bastard!

After all, I...

I decided to become a Saint, no matter what!

Bastards like you!

Alone...

Sasha!

That child...

Don't you dare touch her!

What? He cut through my worms?

Damn, I missed!

This runt is not a Saint... why would he have a Cosmo?

Take this!

Worm's Bind!

To deal with this runt,

I had to use my special attack?!

Don't surprise me like that!

You stupid runt!

Stinky runt!

That's enough.

I won't let you hurt Tenma any further!

Wait a second...

I'll kill you soon enough!

What's this sensation?

Cosmo...

It's...

It's so huge...!

I see. You're...

You've saved me the trouble of finding you.

I'll redeem myself with this!

Worm's Bind!

Sasha...

Stardust Revolution!

Aries Shion.

I apologize for my late arrival.

Athena.

S-Sasha is Athena?

2 years later...

He's finished.

I...

I won't lose!

That light!

He did it.

Winner, Tenma!

Well done, Tenma.

I recognize you as a Saint,

and I grant you this Cloth!

And thus,

a new Pegasus Saint is born!

Right now,

we have received reports of rampant specter activity somewhere in Italy.

The situation is getting urgent.

Tenma,

as a newborn Saint,

prepare yourself for the incoming battle with Hades' Army.

For the sake of this world...

you must do your best to protect Athena.

Athena-sama.

It can't be!

I've finally become a Saint.

What about you, Alone?

I've been painting everyday.

Just as promised.

But, Tenma...

I see a gray world...

My paintings have lost their spirit...

Everything that I paint...

...dies eventually.

What a pitiful soul.

Having such a pure heart,

you're trembling after becoming aware of your sins.

You're?

From that time...

You yearn to salvage the souls of others through your paintings.

Everything you do is justified and beautiful.

After all...

Death is the most basic form of salvation...

Death is...

...salvation?

It looks like you have to find salvation for yourself first.

Come on, let's go.

Where to?

The Forest Cathedral.

You should know that there's a painting of a saint in the cathedral,

a painting which would make any sinner turn over a new leaf.

It is your dream to look at that painting.

Then, that dream of yours...

...I'll fulfill it.

The cathedral...

That door has always been closed!

I have been waiting for you.

This man came to the church to see my painting.

This way please.

The stars are shifting rapidly.

Yo, Sasha.

Tenma! How were you able to come here?

This is Athena's wing.

You shouldn't be able to enter so easily.

It's a secret.

I have a lot of things to tell you but,

you're Athena, after all.

Even if that's the case...

You're as reckless as ever.

Tenma, do you remember?

The things which happened when we were small...

I was always protecting the kind-hearted and pacifistic Alone-niisan.

And the one that protected us siblings was you, Tenma...

Without fail, you would always come to protect us.

Yeah.

So, after you left,

I decided I would protect Alone in place of you.

The Specters are gathering close to our hometown.

Yes.

That dude...

Alone...

I hope he's doing well.

Deeper inside...

...lies the painting I've always wanted to see.

Tenma.

I want salvation...

I want to see that painting!

If I do that...

If I do that...

I'll definitely!

Why?

He looks like me.

You mustn't avert your gaze, Alone-sama.

That's your true appearance.

It's the appearance of the true savior.

Look, you delivered salvation to those people.

It's the place I grew up in.

What if...

What if...

Three days ago,

you painted these children, didn't you?

You painted with love...

that's why it became like this.

I...

All because I painted them!

There's no need to grieve.

Behold this painting.

Death is salvation.

It is a tranquil end.

Everyone becomes equal.

It's an absolute salvation.

The children are smiling.

They won't be ostracized for being poor...

They won't have to worry about hunger...

They won't have to worry about tomorrow...

I see.

Death is salvation.

And, I'm...

The moon was normal just a few moments ago!

Sasha, this is?

I...

I...

I am King of the Underworld, one who looks over death.

Hades...

Hades has...

...awoken.

The Holy War has begun!

the distant memories have lost their colors.

i open the old artbox silently

my childhood friend was always there,

with an unchanging smile.

our dreams were drawn

on the heart's canvas

the colors have not faded yet

holding hands,

we experience the warmth from the past...

why do people have love and hate

were we born like this?

happiness and sadness are entwined,

forever shackling our youth.

Alone...

I heard that Hades is currently at our hometown...

I'm worried about you.

Until I return, please be safe!

For Sasha's sake as well...

I'll definitely protect you!
