Saint Seiya/Fanfic Recs
Proof that the remaining 10% is worth dying from the Ryu Sei Ken for here:
These are recommendations made by Tropers for Saint Seiya, all of which have been signed. After a few samples, you will be able to judge whether you might be interested in the 'fic, based on who recommended it. No-name recommendations will be Zapped (wiki). Nobody would back up the rec. Discussion of the recommendation is welcome on the discussion page. As such discussion is important, do remember to add the discussion page to the watchlist, if need be.
Do warn when a fanfic may head into non-canon territory. Some people just don't like it, and as we all know, Shipping is Serious Business.

Would you like to know who is stronger, Kanon or Saga? How about what is the difference between Cloths, Surplices and Scales?

- Recommended by thelovebug

- Warnings: M. Very M. In no way is anything in this epic not M-rated. Warnings include yaoi, rape, gang rape, blood, guts, more rape, war, incest, slavery, serious psychological trauma and, on the part of the reader, a strange foaming at the mouth if you are deprived of the story. Also, it's in Spanish.
- Synopsis: It's an AU of truly epic proportions, and encompasses both characters from the orignial Saint Seiya and Saint Seiya: The Lost Canvas, and the first arc is as of 2011 complete, with the second arc just underway. Plot-wise: twenty years ago, Prince Defteros and his army invaded the peaceful kingdom of Auva (a star in the Virgo constellation) and raped, pillaged and enslaved the Crown Prince, Asmita. Unfortunately he was more dangerous than either Defteros or Aspros bargained for, and in the present day, his younger brother Shaka is hell-bent on leading a revolution in Amsita's name against the evil Aiolia (who invaded Aspros' kingdom-It Makes Sense in Context), restoring Saga to the throne, and finding out just what happened to Asmita in his years as a slave to Aspros.
