So Long Sweet SVES: Knights of the Zodiac - Island of Doom Explodes (Spoilers)

[Killtacular]

It's Zodiac's final week on CN! Reflect on how the show changed your life, your world, your friends. WHERE WERE YOU WHEN CARTOON NETWORK PLAYED "I RAN" BY BOWLING FOR SOUP? I was right there watching, dammit. I know MY life has been altered forever by the series.

 

[shoujoaifan]

My eyes, my beautiful eyes! What have they done to them!?

Actually, it was funny in a Duel Masters kinda of way, only I doubt they actually planned on making it like that and it really is a bad dub.

But who couldn't love a guy struggling with his birdies leaving him?

 

[PeppeRaskell1]

I would rather have watched it as the uncut, subtitled Saint Seiya.
I won't watch an anime like that any other way.

"Knights of the Zodiac? Seiya-t'aint so!"

 

[Youko Recca]

I know it changed you the most Matt,those trips to the gym and urges to give blood had to have come from somewhere .This dub was funny in my eyes...very.

 

[seiya1729]

Well

better watch the last episode.

 

[Crazy Pineapple]

I wonder if Dic will release their unaired episodes on DVD.

 

[Fireswarm]

Actually I am going to miss this show, I was just getting into the show. Oh well.

"You got fingernail polish all over my face!"

 

[shoujoaifan]

That preview at the end of KoTZ was ironically wrong yet fitting in a sad way.

"...who will win? Tune in next week!"

So long Knights of the Zodiac, who was originally called Saint Seiya and the clothes that weren't. It was a bad dub, but at least we got some laughs along the way.

So long KoTZ. So long SVES.

KoTZ wasn't great-great outside its intentional and unintentional humor. SVES had its moments, like giving us .Hack, which was sent to midnight since its intellectual conversations didn't cut it on last year's Sat. afternoon (my relatives of the single-digit ages LOVED it though. They had me tape it so they could watch it if they fell asleep), but most of the time we wouldn't even get a "doomed" series late at night.

Bye Bye Miss SVES Pie, something something and the something is dry...

What was the point of that song? Never bothered to hear the whole thing. How about this, without changing:

DON'T. YOU. Forget about me...

I replied to one of my own messages for the first time and I like it

SVES's ending is also ironically fitting:

"Play Again"

Sorry Ms. Samus-knock-off-that-we-still-love, sorry.

 

[Ikki D LEO]

So........did anyone watched the last episode?

 

[Spidey2099]

"You got fingernail polish all over my face!"

Yes....cotton candy-blue nail polish. How tacky.

Well, after almost a year's showing, I've only sat through about three episodes of this series, so I don't think the show's changed my life too much...

Except we could have an edited ending that ties everything up in tonight's episode:

"Fly, my knights! You've always saved me in the past--now it's my turn to save you!"

*A huge gust of lava spews upward, engulfing the energy orbs*

"Well, crap..."

Very nice tribute to SVES and KotZ there, shoujoaifan. I'm really gonna miss both of them too. Perhaps it was just the fact that KotZ was on late that I got into it. It's hard for me to get into anime shown during the day. But, I'll really miss even the crappy version of Saint Seiya. It was a part of Saint Seiya that I don't think anyone here will forget about for a long, long time.

Since this is the only show I'm really glad is gone, I only have one fitting tribute.

The original Saint Seiya intro.

All I can do now is hope that Univision, Telemundo, or the Anime Network air Seiya, while KOTZ dies a horrible death.

 

[Batmex]

So this was the last one?

 

[Anime Guy]

So this was the last one?

Yes. The absolutely last episode of KotZ.

 

[Lord Dalek]

Flock of Seagulls can now start watching CN again.

 

[PeppeRaskell1]

The edited version (KotZ) might end up on some syndicated local channel. I wouldn't put it past 'em.

Geez, I hope not.

(Still prays a Spanish network picks up Seiya)

 

[ClockStomper]

I'm gonna miss a show so stupid it looks like it was edited for mentally retarded orangatangs with pink eye, yet was unintentionally hilarious. Funny how "Saint" Sieya was changed to censor it, but they caved in and used "god" and "godess" in the show. I'll miss the edited version of "I ran" that lacks the word "die" and looks like a clip package made by a schitzophrenic albatross.
