When evil gods invade the Earth,
the warriors known as Saints always appear.
A new legend of the young Saints begins now!
To foil Mars's plan to shroud the world in darkness,
the party ascends the Houses of Zodiac, where the Gold Saints await.
House of Taurus
In the second shrine, the House of Taurus,
Taurus Harbinger
Koga is overwhelmed by Taurus Harbinger.
Meanwhile,
Harbinger's Greatest Horn sends Ryuho
to the third shrine, the House of Gemini,
House of Gemini
where he finds himself
Gemini Paradox
in Gemini Paradox's clutches.
And Yuna appears before the fourth shrine,
the House of Cancer.
There are ten hours and sixteen minutes
until darkness engulfs the Earth.
I have to hurry.
Koga,
everyone...
House of Cancer
Bravo.
I'm amazed you've made it this far.
How rude of me.
I haven't introduced myself...
My name is Schiller.
The Gold Saint of Cancer, who protects the House of Cancer.
Master of death and creation,
Cancer Schiller.
True Fear! The Strange Aura Permeating the House of Cancer!
True Fear.
The Strange Aura Permeating the House of Cancer.
I'm surprised you're still standing...
I guess you have strong bones.
I can't fall here...
Then, shall I ensure that you never stand again?
Knee fracture.
Let me hear the sound of your heart shattering already.
I blew away those annoying bystanders,
so I could take my time listening to the song.
I don't know how you've made it this far.
But your life will end here.
That is fate.
I have no time to deal with you!
Aquila Spinning Predation!
Quite an introduction...
Did you think I'd leave myself open
if you attacked immediately?
That, perhaps, if you hit me with your strongest attack,
and if you were lucky...
I thought you had to be pretty strong
to have made it to the House of Cancer.
But you are just a Bronze.
You're nothing compared to us, the Gold Saints, with our mastery
of the ultimate Cosmo, the Seventh Sense.
The Gold Saints really are too strong, after all.
A life coming to an end.
Wonderful...
A splendid smell,
the smell of death.
A good smell,
a truly good smell.
I have to keep going.
Oh? So you're struggling.
Just now, you said you didn't have the time to fight me.
I don't much wish to fight you, either.
My creations will be more than enough
to handle a low-class opponent like yourself.
Those are all people I've killed.
When the soul departs the body, it becomes my marionette,
my loyal servant.
Their terrible form
exudes the scent of death...
Wonderful, isn't it?
Isn't it wonderful?
I'll let you be one of my creations, too.
Now die.
I'd hoped you'd take more care with them...
Well, they're only soulless bodies.
They'll get up again and again.
And there are still more.
Komachi!
Arne!
You were...
...captured...
...by Babel.
So you saw that?
No...
Komachi and Arne are...
Friends of yours, huh?
A reunion with friends.
I'll let you enjoy your time with them.
Komachi!
Arne!
So foolish.
That foolishness will cost you your life.
Meido Choraku!
Taste the fear of death...
And fall.
Feel death close in on you,
and tremble.
The scent of your death grows ever stronger...
You will join Babel...
And my Doom Squeeze, as well.
These marionettes are those
who were caught by the Doom Squeeze.
That pillar of Babel you saw...
The Doom Squeeze.
I'm the one who made it, using Athena's light.
Of course, I'm also the one who put the Saints inside...
Those in the Doom Squeeze are
in comas, in which they burn Cosmo endlessly.
You see,
I can control the bodies of the dead.
Even comatose bodies on the brink of death.
Mars-sama allows me to take the Saints I like,
to make into my marionettes.
I'll ask Mars-sama
if he'll let me make you one, too.
You said "coma," right?
Then...
Everyone trapped in Babel,
Komachi and Arne...
They're still alive!
I will
save everyone!
What a funny joke.
What can you do?
If you're too weak to even attack your friends...
You did well, but I suppose this is it.
Hmm...
I'm sure I'll hear your heart break soon.
Yuna...
Come on...
I broke the first through fifth metacarpals in both hands.
You can't put weight on them.
I've hurt almost every bone in your body...
You can't even turn over, let alone stand.
No...
Oh?
No,
I have to go.
What?
You can stand?
Impossible.
How can you stand?
His Cosmo.
It's swelled to several times what it was when the fight began.
Why won't his heart break?
I have to keep going...
He's far exceeded his body's limitations!
I have to keep going...
Is it the power of his mind that still moves him?
Of his heart?
I have to go...
How long will that heart last?
Let's find out!
Burn,
my Cosmo!
Very well.
Let your Cosmo burn!
Give me everything your Cosmo is capable of,
and I will shatter it...
Along with your heart!
Pegasus...
Greatest
...Ryu Sei Ken!
Horn!
I can't believe you brought me to my knees.
Pegasus!
Everyone...
Not only could I not break his heart,
his heart and his concern for his companions overcame me.
Interesting...
Interesting, Pegasus.
Go!
Become even stronger.
And when you're stronger than anyone,
then I'll shatter your heart!
That Cosmo at the House of Taurus...
Koga?
Koga! You did it, didn't you?
I need to make a path.
Koga is coming!
Yet another joke.
You can barely handle your friends.
Your feelings for your friends will be your undoing.
I can't hurt them.
I don't want to lose anyone else!
You don't have the strength...
You've barely any strength left to fight.
The smell of your death grows ever stronger in my nostrils.
Now, join my Doom Squeeze.
Meido Choraku!
There it is!
I won't be afraid...
I'll turn the momentum from this fall into power!
Divine Tornado!
Did you believe that would work on me?
No...
No, you didn't.
That wasn't an attempt to defeat me.
It was an attempt to anger me, wasn't it?
You thought I would be angry
and kill you myself, didn't you?
Without using your friends.
You chose to fight me,
with no chance of victory, instead of fighting your friends?
I already told you...
I'm not losing anything else! I am going to save Arne, Komachi,
and everyone!
That joke isn't funny anymore.
Not after telling it so many times...
Let me tell you a story about a boy.
When he was young,
he lost his village, his family, everything to war.
He wandered the bare earth, with only dirty water to drink.
A life in which death was always present.
Others in his situation lost their lives.
And on the next day, it could be him.
But...
The death of others could also lead to his survival.
When the boy realized this,
he fed off other lives to survive.
He swore in his heart
that he would become strong and survive.
He isn't...
He isn't like me at all.
Life only exists because of death.
Only the strong, the chosen, survive.
One day, he learned of the Saints' existence.
And he trained to become the strongest Saint in the world.
Many lives met their ends for the sake of his ambitions.
And he...
I gained the Gold Cloth of Cancer!
In this world, you win or lose,
live or die.
Save your friends?
That was a long monologue,
a story before your death.
Just as you desired, I shall kill you personally.
I'll send you somewhere special,
somewhere more wonderful than Doom Squeeze.
Meido Choraku envelopes you with the feeling of death.
But my next attack...
Fall into the true world of death.
Shake at the true terror of death.
Sekishiki Meikai Ha!
You can smell death's sad scent, can't you?
Where am I?
