"Unfortunately, through time, the Legend of The Saints faded...The Ages tell that wicked time will inevitably come again! And that the Saints will be the Warriors of Hope! And their kicks to crack the Earth.Their fists were known to rend the Heavens..."
FANFIC - SAINT SEIYA: THE HYPERMYTH
Well,this is my very first fanfiction. As if I weren't being bold enough just for writing it,I am writing it in english,which happens to be my second language.What can I do?I find this sort of stories so much more interesting when written in this language than in mine (portuguese).-It is also being a way for me to enhance my vocabulary-.So,I'm more than bound to make mistakes,which I will certainly avoid commiting with all my effort.Speaking of boldness,not only this piece of writing will be filled with it for the aforementioned reasons,unsatisfied,I decided to come up with a few more...First one: I intend this to be a Live Action Fanfiction (LAF, quite revealing, indeed) about Saint Seiya, with the actors I consider befitting for each character. The second reason would be the fact that I will be depicting facts that take place in an universe paralel to that of Saint Seiya.Using the foundation of the story of Saint Seiya,settings and ect...But repopulating it completely with my own fictional characters.So,if I have given the role of the Leo Saint to a determined actor,doesn't mean he's Leo Aiolia,but another fictional character that I've created for this little piece of rubbish.Therefore,you shouldn't be searching for similarities between a given actor and it's corresponding constelation's character in the original series.Since I'm making use of the idea of paralel and multiple universes,planes of existence or whatever you decide to call it, I will make an imense use of dramatic license in this particular story.Leaning on the frail and preposterous statement made in the original series itself,which affirmed that the whole world history had been influenced and even heavily altered by the existence of the greek Sanctuary of Athena and other organizations presided by deities and these deities vassals.I daresay that I'll try to take it to a new level, other than the one shown in the series,by inserting historical facts and figures and the interaction of the mythological entities with them.So profound this interaction will be that, in this particular universe many things that are today,and that were in the World of Saint Seiya never came to pass.The most remarkable of them: The French Revolution (or at least the whole of it).Even seemingly absurd,it is a concept clearly mentioned in the series and,if it appears too disturbing to a reader,I can only advise him/her to cease the reading right here.Many things will be just as they are in Saint Seiya.Others I will borrow from Saint Seiya: The Lost Canvas,as some of the Surplices and Evil Stars names,since most of the 108 aren't mentioned in the original series.Some other features I will just rip out of Saint Seiya: The Next Dimension. Promise I'll do my best to keep myself from overdoing that! Though some characters,places, techniques and other stuff may come from the spin-offs such as Saint Seiya: The Los Canvas or Saint Seiya: Episode G,or from the prequel/sequel Saint Seiya: The Next Dimension,my idea of the pieces of armor and main sittings' appearances is that of the original anime.
MUSIC
I do know that it seems terribly geeky,or whatever other adjective might be used to classify it,but I'm gonna be adding to the scenes links to the songs I find apropriate to the specific moment. I decided I just cannot give on that,simply because the instrumental music made for Saint Seiya is to me and a to large share of it's fans the very core of the work,not only for the sentiment of nostalgy,but for the true quality of Mr. Seiji Yokoyama's musical pieces.
