Thank u !!! Love U ! ❤️ Keep doing the amazing job !

Thank you so much! Love you too Anon<3! Thanks for the request and here you go!

Sorrento: 

He is the type that will try his best to comfort his daughter. When you are crying and throwing tantrum for who knows what now. “Dad, why didn’t you buy me that dollie?!” Your seven-year-old voice screamed out. ‘That’s why’ Sorrento sighed as he scooped you up in his arms. “Because that doll cost just as much as the food that you and I have to eat for the next few weeks,” Sorrento said, taking you with him toward the food section of the store. You mumbled under your breath but you knew that your dad was right. You needed food.

Io:

 “Y/n, if you keep doing this, you will be put in timeout. I am going to say this one last time. We need to go home in 10 minutes. It's almost dinner time. Ok, Y/n.” Io said, placing his hand on his daughter’s head. You glared at your father and immediately stomped your foot and screamed. Io took a deep breath and picked you up, and walked back to the house. “Y/n go to your room. You will come out when I call you for dinner.” Io said, placing you on the ground. You knew you were in big trouble when your dad didn’t yell at you.

Isaak: 

The first time you threw a fit, he snapped and got really angry at you causing you to burst into tears. Ever since that day, he refused to get that angry with you. You were just an 8-year-old child and you didn’t deserve that. He makes sure that if you do throw a tantrum, he makes sure to not yell at you but he will put you in time out or in your room till you are calm and will talk to you about your little tantrum. Isakk doesn’t like putting you in your room when you are sad but he knows that if he holds you close and tries to comfort you; you are just gonna keep throwing tantrums.

Baian:

Io e Baian

Crop of my submission for the Taurus periode stsfanzine ! Check out the full drawing on their website 😊

The Italian dub really went crazy with him. And for crazy I mean lazy. He’s just Sea Horse. Without a name. Cavallo del Mare. That sounds damn ridiculous.  Why did you do this to him. 

Overall score (character, not looks): 7/10

Yessssss, the new series is starting! After this I will have one more poll to ask you what I should do next, but for now? Let’s talk about Baian!

The first General to appear in the Poseidon Arc, though not the very first one to appear in the series, is one I kinda liked, but not loved. Part of my indecision about him is due to how he got introduced in the Italian dub (yeah, I just laughed at that name for half the time, I’m sorry).  I know, I know. Cut me some slacks, there are some things I cannot stand and there are Italian dub names I definitely hate. Love the dub, but for the love of every higher being in existence, why. 

But, without losing myself in useless stuff, let’s break down this character. 

Baian is a faithful warrior, loyal to Poseidon in the same way our beloved Saints are loyal to Athena, and he’s a powerful warrior. Not only he said so, but he showed his strength, and I shamelessly cheered when he straight up yeeted Seiya so hard he resurfaced.

Not only that, but he’s smart. In fact, Baian not only used an offensive strategy against Seiya, but also a defensive one, thus showing hos versatile his fighting style can be.  Hadn’t Seiya not already known that particular technique (Misty, I’m looking at you), I don’t think Baian would have lost. 

Objectively speaking, Baian is more powerful than a Bronze Saint, even if said Bronze Saint as a somewhat Gold Cloth at hand. He would have won, but plot is important, so he lost anyway. 

Though, he did get a 7/10 score, and the reason is his personality. In my opinion, the way they introduced him and kept him was... I don’t know. He’s arrogant, but not in a way I see as likeable.  I still like him, but when a character strikes the wrong chord as soon as they appear, I will have a bad time reconsidering them. This is exactly what happened with Baian.  I didn’t have a very good first impression, and I never truly appreciated him without being biased by said first impression.
