Gemini Saga is the Gold Saint in the constellation Gemini in Saint Seiya (Sanctuary Arc), and is one of the most powerful Gold Saints.
Personality and Background
Saga disguised himself as the Pope and was the first Gold Saint that Masami Kurumada introduced in his manga along with Leo Aiolia, although their rank wasn't revealed until later volumes. In his first appearance, Saga presided the event in which Pegasus Seiya acquired the status of Saint. In the anime adaptation, he was introduced in identical manner, in episode 1.
Saga managed to treacherously put himself in control of the Sanctuary for many years after killing Pope Shion, the original Grand Pope of Sanctuary, by stealing his identity.
Saga is often described by other characters as someone with the kindness of an angel but with the darkness of a demon. This ambivalence ended up creating a split personality: a good Saga that was extremely loyal to Athena, and an evil one that keeps control of the body most of the time and killed the previous Pope to steal his place. When it takes control of Saga's body, his hair turns from blond to jet-black (the color schemes were altered for the anime, in which Saga's normally blue hair turned light grey). Saga's two "sides" can also communicate between themselves; in a dialogue the good Saga reproaches his evil "side" to have forced him to hurt Athena.

Chronology (86)
Before the Twelve Houses
Before the Sanctuary Arc, Saga was one of the most beloved men of Greece, in fact, a favorite of the Pope after Aiolos. When he becomes patriarch, he is considered near godly. (This is seen more in the manga section 7).
He is one of the first Gold Saints of his generation (without considering Dohko Libra and Aries Shion), always a wonderful, kind, and generous person. Only his twin brother Kanon knew about the evil that existed in his mind and tried to convince him to take over the sanctuary. However, the evil side of Saga had not yet taken control of him, so he decided to lock Kanon in a prison located in Cape Sounion. Confirmed in Episode G Deathmask did know the intentions of Saga, and even consented to his plan for the conquest of the land, since according to his philosophy: "Justice is in power!"
Before the Shrine Saga
Kanon vs. Saga
To stop the evil ambition of Kanon, Saga decides to lock him in the dungeon of Cape Sounion.From that fact Saga's personality changed to become evil.

Saga attempt to kill Athena
Saga attempted to kill Athena with a golden dagger when she was a baby. However it was prevented by Sagittarius Aiolos. When Aiolos saw the face of the Patriarch, he noticed to his surprise, that it was not Shion. Saga then attacked him, but Aiolos managed to escape, taking Athena and the Sagittarius Gold Cloth.
Saga of the Sanctuary
Saga posed as the real Pope of the Sanctuary for thirteen years. When he learned that the Sagittarius Gold Cloth was in Japan, he sent Docrates to recover it, who fought with Phoenix Ikki, regaining nearly all except for the helmet. When he heard, Saga told his subordinate Gigars come back to try to recover it. Gigars notice for it to Gesit and their Saints on the recommendation of Shaina Depths of Ophicus. Geist only temporarily regained the town dying in the attempt to defend Pegasus Seiya. When Saga learns Gigars pities and gives another opportunity to send someone to retrieve it.
Saga gives the order to send several Silver Saints to the front, but all end in failure. Saga ordered to kidnap Saori but the mission fails. Later, he learns that Ikki of Phoenix returns to the Death Queen Island and orders the Black Saints, who were banished renegade saints on the island, to kill Ikki.
Saga himself causes the explosion and destruction of the island, when Ikki, Seiya, Shun, and Hyoga are there, but are saved by Athena before it exploded. Saga ordered someone to the mountains to seek out Mu in Jamir to help find the Gold Cloth of Sagittarius who had returned to disappear.
Learning that Arachne Tarantula, sent to the mountains of Jamir, had perished, he decides to call the Gold Saint Scorpio Milo. Saga orders Milo to go to Japan to kill the Bronze Saints. Milo refuses in principle given the honor of Gold Saint to fight one who thinks she is inferior to him.
Saga says that they may have in his possession the Sagittarius Gold Cloth Sanctuary has lost for 13 years, and there are 2 Gold Saints fled the Sanctuary that could help them, Libra and Aries.
Milo finally agrees to go to Japan to kill the Bronze Saints. Then comes Leo Aioria to ask Saga to let him go in the place of Milo, He gets his permission. Saga explains to Milo that by sending Aioria in place is because he was the brother of Gold Saint Sagittarius Aiolos, the "traitor" of Athena, and seek to "clear his honor."
Saga also sends Cancer Deathmask to kill the old master Dohko of Libra, but fails due to the intervention of Dragon Shiryu and Aries Mu. He also sent Milo of Scorpio to the Isle of Andromeda to end the island's master, Cepheus Albiore which he defeateded with the help of Pisces Aphrodite in secret.
Saga gets a letter from Saori telling of his visit to the Shrine, and Saga prepared a deadly trap. Saga welcomes Leo Aioria who has returned from Japan and question him why has he returned withouth the Sagittarius Gold Cloth and without killing his enemy. Aioria, however, says that He wants to see Athena and Saga says it is impossible. Aioria prepares to challenge him to get it, then Saga called him a traitor like his brother Aiolos. Aioria tells Saga what Athena told in Japan. When Saga realizes that he knows the truth, attacks Aioria and fight breaks down at once. Then both attacking each other but are interrupted by Virgo Shaka. Saga then orders Shaka to kill Aioria, and in the midst of the battle when Aioria was distracted ,Saga attacks him, controlling his mind and ordering him to kill the Bronze Saints when passing the Temple of Leo.
At the foot of the Shrine, Saga orders Silver Ghost Sagitta Ptolemy with a golden arrow, who then shoots it into Athena's chest. Ptolemy explains that the Bronze Saints only have 12 hours to save her, and only the Pope knows how to remove it .
Saga intervenes when Pegasus Seiya reaches the Temple of Gemini with his cosmo creating a maze of light and shadow to Seiya so he can not find the exit of the Temple. Then when Dragon Shiryu, Hyoga of Cygnus and Andromeda Shun reach the entrance of the Temple, Seiya who had come out to his surprise, found them.
They decide to enter the temple together, but return to being a victim of maze of lights and shadows projected by Saga from the House of the Pope. When they believe to have found the exit, actually returned to the entrance. Saga increases their curiosity and makes them see two houses instead of one. Decide to split into two groups, Hyoga and Shun on one side and Shiryu Seiya and on the other. Then the illusion of Gemini Saint Saga projected, with the Gemini Gold Cloth in front of Hyoga and Shun.
Hyoga attacks the illusion with Diamond Dust, but the attack returned against them. Hyoga returns to attack with the Aurora Thunder Attack, despite the reluctance of Shun, and again turned against them. While Seiya and Shiryu are confronted by another illusion of the Gemini Saint, only Shiryu says he can not feel his presence.
When Seiya is about to attack is stopped by Shiryu and tells him the Gemini Gold Saint is not there. Shiryu says he feels as if someone has projected it's cosmo there. He also says he sees no obstacle and knows where the exit. Shiryu Seiya grabs and runs off dragging him by force, believed to be beaten Seiya screams as they passed the Gold Saint of Gemini, and finally ended up exiting the Temple of the Twins.
Saga admits his mistake to underestimate the blindness of Shiryu, and decides to end Shun and Hyoga. After receiving his rebounded attack, Hyoga collapses, but Shun gets up. Shun attacks the illusions with Andromeda chain but the chain collapses before touching it. Shun then formed Andromeda Nebula defense, forming circles on the floor.
Shun challenges him to enter the circle, but when he does enter it nothing happen. Shun then thought that the Saint does not really exist. Then the illusion Saga attacks him with Another Dimension. Shun gets his chain fastened to the pillars of the house, but Hyoga got ejected into another dimension.
Then the illusion repeats the attack of Another Dimension, but Shun returns to stand by its chain. The illusion break one end of the chain closer to letting fall in his attack. When suddenly a hint of cosmo breaks the concentration at the other end to make Saga lose his concentration and stops sending his cosmo to the Temple of the Twins and avoiding Shun to falling into another dimension.
Saga wonders who has the ability to do it, discarding it to Athena, Aries Mu, Pegasus Seiya, Dragon Shiryu, Aldebaran in Taurus and Libra Dohko, and eventually discovers that Phoenix Ikki from the Isle of Canon Island is the one that did it. Then after a while Ikki is back to his meditation and his cosmo vanished. Then Saga returns to project the illusion of the Temple of the Twins when Shun was still there.
The illusion asks Shun why he didn't escape when the illusion was gone, and Shun says he could not leave Hyoga to wander in another dimension alone. Then Saga attacks him again with Another Dimension, but Shun take action and unite the broken parts to his chain again, then attacks the illusion with Thunder Wave, and striking through the mask of the Gemini Cloth.
Andromeda chain reaches through space and time launch an attack interdimensional against Saga that was in the Chamber of the Pope. While retracting his chain back in Gemini Temple Shun realized that his chain brought back a necklace and wonder if it belongs to the real Gemini Saint. With the illusion of the maze is gone and exit revealed, Shun exit the temple and continued his journey.
The good part of Saga's soul started to talk to the bad soul and said despite his action to defend the Temple of the Twins, Shun won and could not be stopped and to which finally the bad part of Saga deny the result of the fight and allowing Shun to won.
Saga reappears when Bronze Saints struggled in the Temple of the Maiden against Virgo Shaka while taking a bath. Saga did not believe that the Bronze Saints would come to this temple, and hoped Virgo Shaka to stop them .
Saga then reappears when the Sagittarius Gold Cloth is back to Sanctuary, His mind doubts about whether Sagittarius Aiolos still alive and lived on. And then he has a hallucination of all the Gold Saints gathering in front of him seemingly on his defends but then they all turned against him with Athena and Aiolos coming to the Chamber of the Pope to kill him.
After Seiya found the message of Aiolos in Sagitarius temple, Saga learns that Aiolos had left a will in the Temple of the Sagitarius, and just after breaking a glass in her hand, cursed that Capricorn Shura will kill the Bronze Saints that were about to reach the Capricon Temple.
Later he cursed about Aquarius Camus losing his fight against Cygnus Hyoga and why Camus give way to Pegasus Seiya and Andromeda Shun. He also recounts all that has happened so far and can not help but doubts about the outcome of the battle, nevertheless he trust Pisces Aphrodite, the last of the Gold Saint that was left in line to defend.
When Shun collapses after receiving the Bloody Rose of Aphrodite, Saga creates secure victory. Shortly after Pegasus Seiya reaches the House of Grand Pope and met Saga who has taken off the Pope mask he always wore revealing his face. In those moments Saga had blue hair, and well personality.
Saga congratulated Seiya for reaching there, but Seiya runs and hit Saga in his face. Saga says he can not take the arrow to Athena. Seiya says he has been told that the Pope was all the one that could take it. Seiya strikes again with the Pegasus Meteor but Saga did not move.
Saga then mourns, and explains to Seiya that the shield of Athena is the one which can save her if he target it in the direction to where Athena is and told Seiya to hurry along. But at that moment Saga begins to have a personality change, his hair turned grey, eyes turned red, he regain the evil personality. He stopped Seiya from marching.
Saga believes that if he beats Athena and recover his scepter, Nike Goddess of Victory, with the Shield of Athena could challenge the Gods. Seiya gets up and attacks him with the Pegasus Meteor, damaging Saga's Pope clothes. Then Saga summon the Gemini Gold Cloth revealing his true identity, to the surprise of Seiya.
Saga attacks Seiya with Another Dimension but then the good personality intervenes within Saga, interrupting the attack and saving Seiya. But the evil personality continues to dominate his body, and Saga decides that if he can not kill Seiya, then he will deprive Seiya of his five senses and begins to remove them one by one.
Seiya then re-projecting a huge lift cosmo and attacks Saga with his Pegasus Ryu Sei Ken, initially Saga manages to halt it but when they end up gaining speed and power it hit him. But Saga gets up and hits back at Seiya. Seiya then counterattacked Saga, attacking him with his Pegasus Rolling Crash.
Both of them impact to the ground, but Saga stands unhurt and is about to beat Seiya, surprisingly the faces of the Gemini Gold Cloth Mask began to mourn. Evil Saga says he is the only one who can protect this world from the invasion of other gods such as Zeus, Hades and Poseidon and whoever stands in their way must die. Seiya gets up and says that he will die Saga then punches him knocking Seiya out.
When Saga proceed to finish off Seiya, Phoenix Ikki appears, throwing & stabbing Saga's hand with several Phoenix feathers. Saga believed Ikki already dead but now has to fight against. Blinded, Seiya gets up and Start walking to the statue of Athena with Athena's guidance, Saga attacked again, but Ikki defend the attack to protect Seiya.
Ikki attacks Saga but can not touch him, then Saga counter him with Another Dimension, but Ikki gets back from there and to stamp Saga attacks against a pillar. Saga decided to end the fighting as soon as possible Splitting the Chamber of the Pope creating a rift between Ikki and Seiya, to protect Seiya Ikki must jump the rift, but get a blow hit in his stomach by Saga and caught under the falling rubble.
After reaching the statue of Athena, Seiya took the Shield of Athena and start to lift it to direct the shield towards where Athena lay down, but just before he succeeded Saga lands a blow on him causing Seiya's body to spin violently and the light of the shield goes in multiple directions and for a brief moment landed exactly where Athena is before Seiya finnaly droped it. The brief light from the shiled saved Athena vanishing the golden arrow that was stuck in her chest. Saga believes in principle that Seiya failed, but in the distance is a divine light that tells that Athena was alive.
Saga hen start attacking Seiya who is unable to defend himself, and he is about to finish him, before Ikki appears to protect Seiya. Ikki attacks Saga with Phoenix's Wings Rise, but Saga avoided it and begins to beat Ikki by destroying his cloth, taking away the five senses and thrown him a large number of punches.
Before he finish off Ikki, Athena comes along together with the rest of the Bronze and Gold Saints. Saga can not believe that Shiryu, Hyoga and Shun still alive, and together the three attacked Saga, but their attacks do no harm and get returned to them, knocking them down.
Saga challenges the five saints pray that no disclosure against. The five of them got up Seiya, Shiryu, Hyoga, Shun and Ikki join their cosmos to attack Saga. Force of the attack cause Seiya's armor to explodes and because of the cosmo power Saga was thrown to the sky.
Even then he survived the attack, then the Golden Saints are agitated and position themselve to attack him, Athena intervenes and Saga stubbornly decides to fight her. When he lunges at Athena the Gold Cloth of Gemini diseparated from his body.
Saga launches his attack to Athena nevertheless, good personality appears from within Saga controlling one arm which then he grasps the scepter of Athena, piercing his own chest. At that final moment the mind is purified Saga's good personality came back once and for all, but his body had received a mortal blow from the Athena's sceptre, and soon after died in the arms of Athena after asking her forgiveness for all of the evil things he did.
Asgard Arc
In Asgard, Saga's spirit appears in the sky to comfort Seiya, who had fallen off a cliff. This sudden appearance of the spirit of Saga, supporting Seiya, Saint Pegasus makes the emotional cry. Even after his death, a Saint Saga remained loyal to Athena.
Poseidon Arc

Later, Saga appears in the last chapter in the saga of Poseidon with Shura, Camus, and Aiolos, as spirits looking at the edge of the hilltop shrine.
Legend of the Crimson Youth
In the third Saint Seiya theatrical feature, "Legend of the Crimson Youth", Saga returns to life with his comrades after being revived by Abel, the brother of Athena. It is interesting to note that, while the movie is non-canon and takes place prior to the Hades arc, it is Saga, Shura, and Camus who ultimately opposed Abel's actions after he kills Athena. Shura and Camus attacked immediately, while Saga waited for a more opportune moment to strike. Saga eventually would find Seiya and advise him into using his 7th sense to defeat Abel, shortly before committing kamikazi with Lynx Jyao, one of Abel's Titan warriors.
Chronology (OAVS Hades)
Gemini Saga reappears in the Hades Chapter. Together with Aquarius Camus and Capricorn Shura (making them the so-called "Wailing Trio"), Saga was revived by Hades in exchange for eternal life. He was sent to the Sanctuary with the mission to make way for the real Specters and bring Hades the head of Athena. In fact they just wanted to apologize to Athena, and warn her about his armor, and only with her, Athena could defeat the Dark Lord. Aries Shion, former Pope of the Sanctuary and Master Mu, Cancer Deathmask and Pisces Aprodithe were also revived as Specters of Hades, and several Silver Saints as well. During the journey, the "Trio of Lamentations" passes the House of Aries, and her guardian without many , the perception of Mú. Added by Bronze Saint problems. On this occasion, with the collaboration of Aries Shion, Mu was helpless, paralyzed by the power of his master. They can also easily pass the House of Taurus, Aldebaran was killed as previously by the specter Deep Niobe.
However, upon arriving at the House of Gemini, which should be empty, Saga, Shura and Camus are surprised by a powerful Cosmo, who is wearing the Gemini Cloth, and trying to stop them from advancing. Saga soon realizes that such a person could only be his brother, Kanon, and asks his companions to follow the House of Cancer, as he stands to face him. Kanon is determined to prevent their enemies from below, and creates the maze of Gemini, which prevents any enemy to find the exit, just as Saga made against the five protagonists before. Saga delivers a blow that crosses the entire Sanctuary and targets the Temple of Athena, where Kanon was. Once Kanon was reached, the illusions are shattered and the "Trio of Lamentations" finally leaves the house of Gemini. After leaving his former home, for a moment, Saga weeps upon learning that his brother was finally on the good side.
On entering the House of Cancer, the trio is struck by Virgo Shaka , which partially destroys the house. Saga, Shura and Camus disguise themselves with the armor of the spectra Dullahan Cube , Gorgon Ox and Elf Mills , respectively, they killed on the steps of Casa de Leon soon joined the group of Cyclops Giganto, and well have gone unnoticed by Aiolia Leo, despite this suspect them.
When you go to the next house, they are greeted by Shaka, which soon kills the other spectra, for they reveal the true reason for being on the side of Hades . But Saga notes that were still being observed. So the three were forced to confront Shaka.
Saga tries to send him to another dimension and the trio cannot hurt Shaka because the trio are not wearing Gold Cloths. The Virgo began to strip Saga of his senses with its technical Treasure of Heaven Before destroying the last sense, says Shaka saga to use the foul, the Athena Exclamation... Saga encourages his fellow Gold Saints to remember their purpose, goal and use the deadly blow, since its mission would be much more difficult without the five senses. So with tears in his eyes, the trio uses the blow and kill Shaka.
After leaving the Garden of Twin Trees, the scene of his fight with Shaka, the three are intercepted by Aries Mu , Leo Aiolia and Scorpio Milo . With only one direction, the three saw no other option but to re-use of the Athena Exclamation. His opponents do the same. A clash of two Athena Exclamations destroy the shrine. But soon it would happen, Pegasus Seiya , Dragon Shiryu, Cygnus Hyoga and Andromeda Shun intersect the destruction of two exclamations, throwing them against the "Trio of Lamentations." Still Saga, Shura and Camus survived.
Athena orders Mu, Milo Aiolia and take all three to her temple. Athena's plan was to go to hell and join Shaka to fight Hades. When they arrived at the temple, Athena gives Saga the golden dagger he used in an attempt to kill her thirteen years ago, and so she puts the dagger in her own neck.
Discovering the plan of Athena, the three are hanged by Mu, Milo and Aiolia to go to the Castle of Hades. Covertly they enter the castle, telling Pandora they were carrying the body of Athena, ordering her to take them to Hades' presence. However, Pappilon Myu left one of his Fairies watching everything and sends information to Hades, revealing the treason of the three. Once discovered they try to attack Pandora and force her to take them into Hades. However, the twelve hours of life that Hades granted them were coming to an end, and they started to die.
When dying a second time, Saga shows how he really was true to Athena, he ends up turning to dust in the arms of Seiya, and tells the Pegasus: "Protect our Goddess." They are the last words of Saga.
Saga is resurrected again in Hell, this time by Athena and receiving the armor that was originally his. He is sacrificed along with the other eleven Gold Saints to overthrow the Wailing Wall in order to give access to Athena's victory over Hades.
A Divine Punishment
In Tenkai-hen: Overture, Saga, along with Kanon and the other gold saints, returned for a brief moment to be judged by various Olympian Gods. They condemned him for participating in a war that caused many casualties among the deities, and sentenced him and the other humans to spend the eternity encased in a monument to serve as the ultimate example of punishment for the generation of humans to come. Saga felt no regret and accepted his fate.
Techniques and abilites
As one of the Gold Saints, Saga was a master at various forms of combat, being; attacks on the speed of light at base when he is serious he can surpass that speed, strong psycho-mental powers that allowed him to create realistic illusions and distort time and space, coupled with the fact that he could do this long-distance mind after finding the enemy's position. As an example of his great power Saga could deprive Pegasus Seiya of his five senses only using short bursts of the cosmos. He used the following attacks:
Galaxian Explosion (ギャラクシアン・エクスプロージョン／銀河爆砕): Your cosmic energy, reaching a peak and be shared equally in both arms, all the power goes against the opponent only . The cosmic energy starts in the form of a galaxy full of planets going towards the opponent. Then the galaxy collides and explodes with the opponent to create fulminant and devastating damage and this technique also could use as suicidal move. The power is identical to the explosion of a supernova, and a technique lethal extremely dangerous and difficult to escape, since the shock of the blow is very similar to an exploding galaxy, causing a powerful Big Bang effect capable of shattering only the enemy completely without destroying earth and the milky way (basically its an atomic attack on a lesser scale and the attack is directed to the insides of the enemy just like the other gold saints) .
Another Dimension: (アナザーディメンション／異界次元): both arms of the Gemini saint rise up toward the opponent, Saga concentrates its cosmos then it creates a powerful lightning, the lightning rips the timeline, creating a sort of black hole space. The opponent is launched into this hole, then it will end up in another dimension forever, like a spaceship out of orbit, according to Saga.
Demon Emperor Fist (幻朧魔皇拳): With a quick movement of hands, Saga "cuts" the air, thus opening a kind of space in the atmosphere. Then after the space is open he shoots a beam of light that goes through the opponent's brain through a vacuum created that exceeds the speed of light due to lack of air resistance. This technique directly attacks the opponent's brain, allowing Saga to manipulate him through suggestion (pretty much as a "brainwashing"), ordering him to attack anyone as long as there is a target. The effects will only disappear if the victim or target in question dies. A weaker version attacks the nervous system of the opponent, leaving him immobile and vulnerable to any attack.
Sensory Annihilation (五感剥奪): This ability alllows Saga to withdraw all the senses from the opponent; all five regulars along with the sense of thinking and heart-stopping, leaving his enemy in a sort of vegetative state.
Astral Projection (幽体離脱): Saga can control his Cloth at distance and uses his cosmic power to do so. However, it's not impossible to be perceived with this ability as Andromeda Shun's chain was able to detect exactly where he was and attack him using the empty space within the armor as traveling source. Gemini Kanon used the same Technique in Hades Arc, and Saga was also able to find his twin after becoming disillusioned by his immense power only to realize it was just an illusion. Saga can also teleport his Cloth from the distance.
Labyrinth of Twins:(ツインズの迷宮) Illusion to make enemies wander aimlessly around the Gemini Temple without being able to find an exit. Both Gemini Saga and Gemini Kanon are able to use this technique. In the Sanctuary Arc, Saga used this against the bronze saints; Dragon Shiryu was the only one able to find the exit because of his lack of sight, and hence the optical illusion had no effect on him. Andromeda Shun was also able to break it by attacking Gemini Saga and breaking his concentration. In the Hades Arc, the golden saints Capricorn Shura and Aquarius Camus were unable to get through it, even knowing that it was an illusion. The technique was only broken when Gemini Saga launched an attack directly to the Grand Master chamber, hurting Gemini Kanon and once again breaking the caster's concentration.
