I am the Goddess Pallas's guardian...
The true Pallasite...
Titan!
I am the Gold Saint, Sagittarius Seiya.
Seiya's True Feelings! Return From the Lies!
Seiya's True Feelings.
Return From the Lies.
What?
Giganto Impact!
Seiya!
Athena...
Your love is wrong.
Your love has made Pallas-sama suffer,
brought disaster to the humans,
and led many of your Saints to their deaths.
You are a goddess of war who brings destruction.
Sagittarius Seiya, your loyal Saint, is another
of your victims!
I'm no one's victim.
Don't make Athena... Saori-san cry.
Seiya!
Cry?
A goddess of war who will do whatever it takes to win?
I know that Saori-san has faced her destiny
of having been born as Athena.
And has sacrificed herself in battle to protect humanity.
She's stubborn, and she hates to lose.
But the people's suffering hurts her more than anyone else.
And each time a Saint died, she grieved!
Even if she never shed tears,
she cried in her heart!
That is who she is!
I don't want to let her be sad anymore.
Hard to believe those words are regarding a goddess.
To me, Kido Saori is a woman.
Aren't the Saints Athena's loyal soldiers?
You're following your orders, correct?
I'm not the kind of person who'd follow an order I didn't agree with.
I always fight of my own free will.
Your will?
It doesn't matter if she's human or a goddess.
Athena is the one I wanted to protect.
That's all.
Seiya...
And those are Sagittarius Seiya's true feelings?
A Gold Saint should be an example to all,
but you fight out of personal emotion?
Yes.
I don't care.
Laugh if you want.
I thought you were just a dog that kept barking Athena's name.
If I didn't continuously bark her name,
I wouldn't be an example to other Saints.
No, I wasn't laughing at you.
If I have offended you, I apologize.
It's only that now, I understand all too well what you're saying.
I feel the same way that you do.
I shall protect Pallas-sama, even if it costs me my life.
Not because anyone has ordered me to.
I shall protect her as a woman.
This is, without a doubt, my own will.
Titan...
I guess you're more reckless and passionate than I'd thought.
You and I both are.
If I still just blindly swore loyalty to my former master,
I never would have known such passion.
But now I feel joy in risking my life for Pallas-sama.
It is foolish to let one's feelings affect you.
But I do not regret it in the least.
And even if we are enemies,
I am happy that I met you, and had the chance to fight you!
I am honored.
Now, let us end this!
Risking our lives for those whom we love!
Not as two enemies,
but as two men!
What's this?
Satellite Crusher!
What a fight!
Seiya and Titan?
Are they evenly matched?
It's like One Thousand Wars...
No, their Cosmos colliding is even greater!
It's an amazing fight.
But against a god's power...
Who's there?
Someone's watching me.
Who are you?
Seiya, we'll help you!
Stay back, you guys.
Harbinger!
Those wounds...
They're fighting each other as men!
Don't interfere.
I'm surprised...
You're still standing and fighting, even after all those hits from
my Chronotector-clad fists.
Titan...
I may hate giving up more than anyone in the universe!
An unbreakable will! Splendid!
But... You cannot survive my ultimate attack!
It's dragging us in...
What's going on?
Titan's Cosmo is creating an incredible mass!
It's warping gravity!
My Cosmo is the size of a planet!
Can you withstand it, Seiya?
You'll try?
I have my friends.
I have those who pray for me.
Even if it takes everything I have, I will defeat you, Titan!
Then endure my ultimate attack!
Gigantic Planet End!
Burn... my Cosmo!
Cosmic Star Arrow!
Crush him!
Seiya!
Titan!
The fight isn't over.
I didn't think I'd beaten you so easily.
You're risking your life to protect the one you love.
You won't die that easily.
Well done, Seiya!
You are worthy of my mortal peril!
Titan!
Stay back, Pallas-sama!
Here I go!
Come, then!
Pallas!
Pallas-sama, get back!
No... You can't go on!
I shall fight!
I do not wish to see you further hurt.
You mustn't.
Seiya...
Withdraw.
Athena-oneesama...
Are you certain?
Yes.
Let's end this.
Pallas,
there is no need.
What?
Are you not frightened?
Afraid of you?
You're afraid...
of losing someone you love.
Aren't you trying to fight for the one you love?
Then you should understand how sad it is,
losing someone you love in battle...
And how foolish it would be.
Let us stop this, and cease to injure those we love.
How can you stop fighting?
I know you hate me!
I tried to destroy the humans, Earth, and you...
I wanted your attention, even if it meant your hatred.
What I've done is stolen those you loved.
And still, you can forgive me?
I could not answer the deep love you harbored
for me as the goddess of love.
I was unable to fill you with my love.
But don't you have someone who will love you now?
We're fighting each other, hurting each other,
and trying to see the end of our fate.
But now, we can be released from our fate!
Any more fighting will only hurt and sadden those we love.
I cannot hurt the one you love anymore.
Pallas...
I want you to be happy!
I...
I want you to be happy!
Athena-oneesama...
Titan-san, please help Pallas to be happy.
Your words are too good for me.
I have always intended to serve her with my life.
It's okay for me to be happy?
Athena-oneesama...
wants me to be happy?
Pallas!
What's this?
Pallas...
There isn't anyone who's not allowed to be happy.
But I've hurt you...
And I hurt the people of Earth.
Let us atone for it. We can start again.
I shall carry the burden of your sin, as well.
I shall walk with you.
Like the humans, who take one another's hands.
Who share their pain and suffering.
We can start anew!
I'm a failure as a goddess of love.
Your love is so vast.
No, Pallas...
I learned the wonders of love from you.
In the cruel world of the gods, when I lived my life in battle,
you gave me peace and warmth.
And you made me realize the wonders of love.
Athena-oneesama...
I remember...
I wanted you to smile at me this way.
The way you did in the Age of Myth...
Pallas-sama...
I can feel a kind Cosmo coming from Pallas.
This is her true Cosmo, as the goddess of love, isn't it?
So no one, friend or foe, will suffer anymore?
Our goddess is such a softy...
Pallas-sama...
Titan...
I...
Your happiness is my wish.
Please do as you desire.
Saori-san...
Seiya,
I'm sorry.
As Athena, I forced you to fight, and then rendered it all meaningless.
It's fine.
I wasn't fighting because you ordered me to.
Athena-oneesama...
Pallas?
I'll return your life.
Onee-sama...
Saori-san's Cosmo is coming back...
Pallas,
let us build the future together.
Let us fill the world with love.
Yes, Athena-oneesama.
What's this?
Pallas-sama?
What?
This is...
Saori-san!
Pallas-sama!
I can't have you two getting back together.
You're...
Europa!
Use a god to defeat a god...
Then kill the other. That was the plan,
but I guess I'll have to kill them both...
Then this is your doing?!
I'll defeat you!
What?
It's so confining, looking like a class-2 Pallasite.
This is my true form.
Saori-san!
Pallas-sama... Pallas-sama!
What is this?
Their Cosmo is badly weakened!
Curse you, Europa...
You'll pay for this!
Titan...
You have disobeyed my god's order,
and you saved Pallas.
That is treason.
For this serious crime, you will pay with your life.
What Cosmo...
The blade is more powerful than when Pallas held it.
As though it were a god itself...
Originally, the Eternal Dance belonged to my god.
Not to Pallas!
This is a god's power?
Yes...
You've seen it before.
Within yourself.
Subaru?
What's wrong?
Come back, Subaru!
Haven't you always thought you'd like to be a god?
That's right.
I wanted to be a god...
Why?
I wanted to be strong!
Humans are strong.
But that is a temporary strength.
A god's power is eternal!
The power of a god
is even stronger!
So that's your conclusion.
Then why don't you become a god?
I am the man who will become a god.
That's right...
Because you were a god from the start.
Subaru, a god?
What are you saying?
Now, the Ouroboros, the ring of two snakes
that absorbed Pallas's and Athena's Cosmos,
will make you eternal, beyond life and death!
The time has come.
Now, awaken...
My god, Saturn-sama!
No! The Equuleus Cloth!
Subaru's Cosmo is welling up!
Subaru, is that you?
