Original subtitles

When evil threatens the world,

the warriors of hope will always appear.

Garbed in Cloths of the constellations,

they fight by exploding the energy within them:

their Cosmo.

They are the warriors who

protect the love and peace of the world...

The Saints!

Saint Koga's journey to find Athena continues.

Yuna and Aria destroy the core that was

sending wind Cosmo to the Tower of Babel.

After the ruins shut down,

Seiya appears in front of them with a message.

He tells the young Saints to take care of Athena,

and he disappears.

And Yuna is left with the mysterious wind Cosmo crystal.

Young men, let the Cosmo in your hearts burn!

Reunion in the Motherland! Confrontation of Student and Master on a Snowy Field!

Reunion in the Motherland.

Confrontation of student and master on a snowy field.

It's snowing!

Wow!

What's so great about snow?

This sucks.

It's pretty.

But this is strange.

There shouldn't be so much snow at this time of year.

Yuna?

It doesn't make sense.

You saw all the places we've been, right?

The flowers and trees had withered.

The forests,

the towns,

the lakes.

They were all dried up and empty.

Is it because of Mars's Tower of Babel?

Oh, yeah!

It's absorbing all of the Earth's Cosmo,

so it's making things weird.

But what should we do?

We destroyed the core of one of the ruins.

Four remain.

Okay, leave it to me.

I'll destroy the other cores.

I won't let Mars win!

Yeah!

Let's go!

Where?

Wait!

Let's go, Yuna.

Not only did you fail to retrieve Athena,

but we also lost the Wind Core and three of our men.

And you call yourselves Silver Saints?

Until a new Sanctuary is constructed, using the Tower of Babel's power,

true peace will not come.

Your task is to slay the rebels

and to bring Athena back.

Sonia-sama.

Would you leave this to me?

Who are you?

Peacock Pavlin.

I happen to know one of the traitors.

Know them?

Yes.

I think I know where they may be headed.

I believe it is my responsibility to correct my mistake.

Very well, Pavlin.

Bring back our Athena.

Yes, ma'am.

I take my leave.

Go.

So the Saints still aren't completely under our control?

It's cold.

I think this is as far as we're gonna get today.

The blizzards in this area are severe.

But this should stop soon.

Then we'll head to the town.

What? What's wrong?

You seem to know your way around.

Is this somewhere you already know?

I grew up around here.

So this is your homeland?

Would they let us stay at your place?

Yeah, it'd sure beat staying in a cave.

I'm sorry, but that isn't possible.

No one is there.

I lost my parents and relatives

to a war, a long time ago...

I'm sorry.

Sorry.

It's fine.

Don't worry about it.

I wasn't the only one.

So you've always been alone, Yuna?

Yeah, I guess so.

Ever since I was young, I've never relied on anyone.

It seems like you've always been a grown-up.

A grown-up?

No... Not at all!

That's right...

There was one person who helped me...

Thief!

A mask?

So you don't know of Athena's Saints.

Saints?

You!

Thanks.

You caught the thief.

Come along.

No!

Wait.

How much was that bread?

You're going to pay for it?

No, I want you to hire her.

What? Why?

She seems to have nerve and strength.

She's no sloth.

I'd imagine the bread is a fair price for a day's work.

But still...

Even if it's you requesting it, she's still a thief.

If you hire her, she won't be a thief.

Listen.

Stealing is wrong.

Get what you want by working.

Thank you.

You saved me.

You're a good girl.

What's your name?

Yuna.

Yuna, huh?

I'm Pavlin.

The Peacock Silver Saint, Pavlin.

Pavlin always used to say...

Think hard to find a better way, a third way.

She's a good person.

So instead of letting you keep the bread or making you return it,

she wanted you to find a way to earn it.

I wanted to be just like her.

I wanted to be one of Athena's Saints,

so there wouldn't be any more children like me.

I wanted to do everything I can

to prevent any more children from having to go through the same sadness I did.

And so, I talked to Pavlin.

Yuna,

what can you feel from the stars' movement?

Confusion?

Rebellion...

Rage.

Hope?

A small, but a pure, hope!

It's still weak, but someday,

a hope that will have great power.

Yuna...

You may have the power to read the stars.

Read the stars?

The talent to feel the powers of the universe,

and put the movements into words.

Make your Cosmo of use to others.

I will make you a Saint.

So Pavlin trained me, and she sent me to the Palaestra.

Then she was your teacher.

They say a friend's teacher is like your own teacher.

Tell me more about her.

What happened with her after that?

I haven't seen her since.

You haven't?

No.

The Saints are busy all over the world.

It can't be helped.

Are you lonely?

Yes.

But I'm sure Pavlin would say...

Oh, my!

I didn't mean to say all that.

Okay, the blizzard's stopped.

Let's go now.

We should get some rest in town.

This is Yuna's town?

Aria?

What happened here?

War.

Seven years ago, right after I left,

this was the site of a battle.

There are still people in the town twenty kilometers to the east.

Let's go there.

Yeah.

Aria, are you all right?

I'm okay, Yuna...

You're getting exhausted.

We should hurry for Aria's sake as well.

Yeah.

I'd love to, but...

I sense a Cosmo.

Stay on guard.

Don't worry.

If it's only one enemy, we'll be fine.

Wait.

Leave this to me, and keep going.

What?

I know this area better than anyone else.

So my advantage exceeds anyone else's.

But we can't just leave you alone...

I'll be okay.

I'll use my knowledge of the area to escape.

More importantly, I think a Silver Saint is coming.

Protect Aria.

That's our priority now.

Got it.

Don't do anything stupid.

Just buy us a little time.

Yeah.

Yuna...

Aria, let's go.

Pavlin?

I thought it was you...

Where is your mask, Yuna?

It seems you have forgotten the rules of the Saints.

I haven't forgotten.

I removed the mask by choice.

Are you talking back to your teacher?

I suppose it is true that you kidnapped Athena

and destroyed the Wind Core.

Which means that I must punish you.

Pavlin...

Pavlin!

You Silver Saints are being tricked!

Mars is...

No talking!

Diich Pieria!

Beg forgiveness from Mars,

and hand over Athena.

I cannot.

Why?

Mars only wants the power of the Sanctuary for himself!

He's stealing the Earth's Cosmo as we speak,

ignoring the disasters it causes.

Why can't you understand that?

Mars's word is absolute.

No!

You were always so calm and intelligent.

Why would you obey Mars?

You don't understand, Yuna.

The Saints fight for Athena.

We need nothing else.

Aria...

The current Athena isn't the true Athena!

We fight for the real Athena!

With such weak Cosmo?

Someone with neither power nor resolve will lose.

Peacock Blizzard!

Stand, Yuna.

If you can't defeat me,

you won't be able to protect anything.

Yuna, burn your Cosmo.

Don't cry.

You mustn't cry.

Do you think you can be a Saint with such a weak heart?

Can you protect others' happiness?

That's right, Yuna.

Become a stronger Saint than anyone.

You will be the fist that protects Athena and the people of this world.

Yuna, burn your Cosmo.

Pavlin...

I didn't take off my mask as a sign of rebellion against Athena.

I believe that following my own path

will lead me to what is best for Athena.

I know that obeying the rules of my heart,

not the rules that are given to me,

is something that I must do

to make my wish come true, and to become strong.

Pavlin,

I will become strong...

And protect those I must protect!

This is my resolve!

Aquila

Spinning Predation!

Peacock Blizzard!

Yuna,

you are a splendid Saint now.

I'm proud of you.

Pavlin?

I'm glad I came to see you...

Before the others could kill you.

I thought you'd betray us,

Peacock.

We'll slay you and the rebels who kidnapped Athena.

Sagitta Sham!

Reticulum Balazo.

Auriga Almaaz.

You will be slain by the power of the Saints who support Mars-sama.

Yuna, tell your friends.

Athena...

Kido Saori is alive.

Mars appointed Aria as the new Athena as a front,

while he holds Kido Saori captive.

He's planning something.

Saori-san is safe?

Don't give up.

There is time before his plan comes to fruition.

You still have time.

If you don't give up, you can save Kido Saori.

Yuna, leave this to me.

Protect Aria, and go on ahead.

What are you talking about?

If they catch you, it's over.

But I can't leave you here alone...

Didn't you resolve to fight?

Obey your heart.

And maintain your resolve!

Pavlin...

Hurry.

These are your teacher's orders.

Pavlin.

I'll fight with the same resolve you share.

So hurry.

These are your teacher's orders.

Thank you, Pavlin.

A female Saint who has broken the rules.

It's undecided whether the rules have yet been broken.

A female Saint must not show her face to anyone.

If anyone sees it, you must love them or kill them.

As a Saint of Athena, I removed my mask.

Do you understand what that means?

Why, you...

We'll kill you first!

Peacock Blizzard!

Yuna!

Are you okay, Yuna?

Did you get hurt?

I'm fine.

I see.

Good to hear.

Listen, Koga.

Athena... Saori-san is alive.

She was just captured by Mars.

Who told you that?

My wonderful teacher

told me.

I'm glad you're safe.

I'm back.
