shion x dohko (saint seiya) well actually I didn’t really pay attention to this couple until today, searching dohko pics. They go incredible together, and they are very popular *3* I just like dohko uke, is like annoyed but he loves shion, and he is a MANLY UKE. yea that existsssssss and I love it. dohko is so manly…<3 and shion treats him like something cute and teasable yess. he likes being seme lol and mhnn lost canvas has a lot of this pairing, though I don’t really like lost canvas that much… manga is beauty though. name would be shioko xD I dunno
@abyss-no-ishiEsto es lo que pasa cuando no me arreglan el Scaner. No puedo escanear los dibujos que ya tengo entintados y me pongo a hacer éstas cosas… XD
So! Like, around last year, I made my first saint seiya fanart and it was a height chart of the gold saints (here) - so for my year anniversary of posting for this fandom I wanted to redraw it! With bonus Shion and Kanon this time
First of all, I’m not a huge shipper lol, not that I dislike it because I definitely like to, I mostly gravitate to whatever’s popular. I don’t know why I just never feel compelled to draw much of any ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
But I thought hard about it and picked out a bunch, in no particular order, that I actively like - as in I’ll give it a like or a reblog - anything else I’m pretty indifferent towards
Under the cut I’ll ramble about each one lol + some extra quick sketches for my favorite ones (warning: it’s long)
Dohko and Shion (old people hard to draw…): Okay this one I love a lot. The scene of their goodbyes in Lost Canvas and the Hades Chapter genuinely stirred my heart and the like, concept of them growing old for 200 years and still being in love… that makes my heart melt…
Shun and Hyoga: There’s a lot about… masculinity in saint seiya that make me roll my eyes, but Shun added a softness to him that I really appreciated
Marin and Shaina: They get so little interaction outside of interacting with Seiya that it’s kinda hard to tell what they’re like… But I really like seeing art of them!
DM and Aphrodite: These two are really fun. Deathmask in particular is just… a really fun character that I totally adore (He’s unapologetically a bad dude and that is very funny to me). There’s a ridiculousness and sweetness to these two that I really like lol, not much more to it! I also like the idea that they both garden together, hence the sketch ^
- Note about Shura: I like stuff with him included too! Especially with DM, however I find it especially difficult to ship him with anyone because of how… wishy-washy he is lol. His level of redeemability in some works makes it seem like he wouldn’t get along well with these two at all sometimes
Seiya and Saori: I have mixed feelings about the ship but the shouting each others names thing is equal parts charming and irritating to me lol
Kanon and Rhadamanthys: This one really comes out of nowhere lol I saw that there was quite a bit of art for it and it just hit different, it’s good stuff
El Cid and Sisyphus: Okay… out of all of these this one is my favorite. I absolutely adored LC and liked the deeper friendship between these two that the anime explored. I really really liked that they traveled together and love the idea that they’re overworked archeology partners (That’s right El Cid has his own notes and theories ) I think it’s very sweet. I actually do wanna draw art for them in the future
Camus and Milo: Epic divorced men… There’s an easy tragedy aspect you can apply to them that I think can be interesting - special shoutout to Kardia and Degel too for being the slightly better version of them lol
