Why have fans never seen the real ending of Knights of the Zodiac?
Endless work?
Knights of the Zodiac was one of the great successes Shonen jump at the height of its “golden age”, being serialized 1986 nineteen ninety. It was the work that helped define the genre. shonen all over the world, but despite all this good story and attitude to the universe of anime and manga, Knights of the Zodiac technically it’s work incomplete. Let’s find out why?
In accordance with TSB RF, Knights of the Zodiac ended up with the original version of the manga not having a proper ending as it was canceled before it could even enter its final saga (and the one that would have been the most epic). To this day, some fans are waiting for the author Masami Kuramada write a worthy conclusion to his work, but this does not change the love of the fans.
As you may know, two great arcs led Seiya to meet the mighty gods. Poseidon This Hades so that both do not destroy humanity. This leads us to believe that, following mythological logic, Seiya followed his journey until he encountered Zeus, king of the gods. Probably something similar would have happened if Kuramada had followed heavenly bowwhich would be the last major arc of the series.
Unfortunately, heavenly bow was not done, but a long arc was made, which would cause interest in the manga to drop significantly, which hurt the sales numbers and led to Shonen jump resulting in Kuramada abruptly ending the series in bow of hell. In the manga, the author left open the possibility that Seiya had died, and from that point on, the plot would come to an end (predicting that it would be difficult to get to the Zeus saga).
However, as we see in the film Heaven Prologue and in the manga Next dimension (by using CavZodiac), Seiya actually ended up in a wheelchair and trapped in the curse of Hades after being hit by his sword. Athena then takes the knights back to Earth and we see them shut down. Knights of the Zodiac it’s still a series that works very well and some might even say that Hades is a good “ultimate villain” but the fact is that it would be amazing to see how Zeus will be in this universe and how the Saints will have to deal with him .
