My opinion: This manga
ended up in my PAL because my husband wanted to return to the Knights of the Zodiac from his childhood. But we were wrong standard. In fact, in "The Lost Canvas", the story takes place in the past, long before Pegasus, Andromeda or Seiya.
So much for the clarification on the situation "history" of this new saga of the Knights of the Zodiac.
In this first volume history is slowly taking place, featuring the characters. It operates in the heart of a war between Athena (reigned on Earth protected by the Golden Knights) and Hades, god of the underworld who wishes to invade Earth with its spectra.
The story is nice, Tenma (later Knight) and Alone (destiny important) are engaging characters. The stroke of the pen is quite nice, although I found some scenes quite cluttered.
However, this manga is not a favorite for me. I think the saga continue only if my husband is interested. I have other priorities manga;)
My rating:
Currently the series includes 17 volumes .
