|
Overview
As in Greek mythology, he is the god and ruler of the seas,brother of Hades and Zeus. InKurumada's mythos, he incarnates on Earth by possessing the body ofa human, to be able to fulfill his will.
Poseidon has engaged in battle the protector goddess of theearth Athena, in several occasions, indifferent incarnations centuries apart. Kurumada reveals in hismanga that Poseidon battled Athena in the age of myth (Saint Seiyamanga, vol.1), and later they battled in the region of Attica, 2000 years before theirencounter in the 20th century. (Saint Seiya manga, vol.14). In thesame way as Athena's Saints, Poseidon has a personal army assistinghim since the ages of myth, formed by thousands of low-rankingsoldiers, and commanded by seven tremendously powerful warriorsknown as the Marina Generals, whose Cosmo equals that of a GoldSaint, and don powerful armors known as Scales, that representmythical beings of the sea.
Poseidon was introduced by Masami Kurumada in vol. 14 of hismanga Saint Seiya, as a young man named Julian Solo, and he firstappeared in the anime adaptation in episode 100, in the samemanner. Julian, the vessel chosen by Poseidon for his soul, is ayoung, very handsome man, with blonde hair. In the animeadaptation, his hair color is blue, to represent the seas.
Although Masami Kurumada presented Poseidon first in anantagonic role in his manga, it was revealed that in fact Poseidonnever wanted the destruction of mankind out of whim or pure evil.He is in fact, an honorable and benevolent deity. He wanted topunish humans for their evil deeds and corruption of Earth. Also,he had considerations toward Athena, since she has been theobject of his affection during millennia. He awoke in the 18thcentury and wanted to take revenge on Athena, but because she wasfighting Hades at the time, he decided he wouldn't take advantageof the situation, knowing that she wouldn't be able to oppose bothdeities, and returned to his slumber within Athena's Amphora, where he had beensealed centuries ago. In the third act of Kurumada's manga,Poseidon awakens briefly from his slumber, to assist Athena and herSaints in a moment of desperate need, in stopping the evil schemeof the god of the underworld, Hades.
Incarnation

In Kurumada's mythos, Poseidon, the god of the seas, in order toincarnate, has chosen a male member of the Solo family, since theage of myth. The Solo family, one of the wealthiest in Greece andin the world, has had hegemony over the seas during millennia, andhas had Poseidon's blessings as his chosen servants. The member ofthe Solo family Poseidon chooses serves as a vessel for his soul,to help him achieve his goals.
In Poseidon's latest incarnation, in the 20th century, heincarnated in the young heir of the family, a teenager named JulianSolo. His goal was to cleanse the Earth of humans, whom heconsidered to be evil and unworthy of the blessings of the gods,and wanted to build an utopian society on top of the ruins of theold Earth once all humans were eradicated. Also, he wanted to exactrevenge on Athena for having sealed his soul 2000 years before, intheir last battle.
Abilities and Attributes
Being one of the most powerful deities and the brother of Hadesand Zeus, Poseidon is far superior to humans in every way. As thegod of the seas, Poseidon rules over the sea and all its creatures.He commands the waters and rains, and can make them obey his everywhim. He possesses an immense, divine and immeasurable Cosmo, farsuperior to that of human, and can surpass even Athena's undernormal circumstances. He can channel his Cosmo through his body inthe form of intense energy blasts, more often he channels itthrough his Trident. His only weakness stands in his use of anincarnation, leaving him vulnerable to the power of Athena's Seal,which extracts his soul and induces him into a deep slumber. Withthe weakening of the Seal, he is capable of freeing himself fromthe imprisonment for a few minutes.
He wields the 'Big Will', also known as the Divine Cosmo, onlypossessed by gods, although he can't use all his divine cosmo dueto being reborn as an avatar. Poseidon was the first characterKurumada had make such statement in his manga.
Scales
In the same way his Marina Generals don powerful armor known asScales, the Emperor of the Seas also possesses his own Scales. Itis far superior to those worn by his Marina, and it is one of theDivine Armors that only the gods are allowed to wear. It was forgedon the image of the mighty ruler of the seas Poseidon, brandishinga trident, symbol of his power and domain.
As with the other eleven Olympians, he also possesses a Kamui,or Divine Cloth. But he never donned it in Kurumada's originalmanga.
Poseidonarc : The resurrection of the Emperor of the Seas
In the second act of Masami Kurumada's manga, Saori Kido attendsmillionaire heir Julian Solo's party, at Cape Sounion, Greece.Julian tells Saori that his father was a good friend of her lategrandfather Mitsumasa, and that he had been looking forward to meether, since he felt like he had always knew her. Minutes later,Saori was surprised by Julian's marriage proposal, to which sherefused. Some time after Saori left, Julian was approached by amysterious woman, who told him he had been chosen by Poseidon asthe vessel of his soul to reincarnate in this era. The woman calledherself MermaidThetis, and having said that, as Poseidon, she was his servant.Astonished, Julian was dismayed and in disbelief. Against his will,Thetis grabs Julian and quickly begins to dive to the depths of thesea. Julian Solo's human body could not handle the tremendous diveto the bottom of the ocean and faints during the journey. Uponawakening, he discovered he was at Poseidon's Undersea Temple andthe legendary city of Atlantis. Thetis' words turned out to betrue, and Julian was brought in front of his legendary Scales, thedivine armor that belonged to the God Poseidon since the age ofmyth.
Donning the Scales, the soul of Poseidon slowly began to flowand awake within Julian. Afterward, seven powerful warriorspresented themselves before Poseidon, as they were the legendaryMarina Generals, the personal guard of the Emperor of the Seas.Having sensed Poseidon's awakening and his will, they gathered andassumed their destinies as protectors of the god, as they had donesince the ages of myth. Soon Poseidon's Cosmo begins summoning andimmense army of Marina, led by his Generals - all loyal toPoseidon's will. Julian Solo's quest to 'cleanse' the planet hasbegun.
Julian Solo became disilusioned with mankind and realizing thatthe Earth was corrupted and ravaged by the evil of mankind. Mankindhas become a dirty stain on this world and soon decides toeradicate this cancer. Using his Poseidon's will and limitlesscosmo, Julian Solo unleashes powerful rains and heavy flooding onEarth for countless days. Destruction, death and chaos followedafter. In the Manga, Poseidon sends his powerful army and SirenSorento in chase of Athena. After failing in trying to make Athenameet with him by force, she decided to attend Poseidon'ssummonings, to try to find a way to solve the crisis.
In the Anime, the Poseidon arc was slightly modified in itsfirst parts to tie it to the anime-only Asgard arc, as Poseidonmanipulated Hilda and her Asgard Holy Warriors to attack Athena, aswell as sended his emissary Sorento to control the situation.However the spell is soon broken and Hilda ends up regainingcontrol of herself. Much to everyone dismay, Saori ends up beingswallowed by whirpool and transported to Atlantis.
Upon arriving to Poseidon's Undersea Temple, she discovered thatthe god had incarnated in the body of Julian Solo. Athena wassurprised when she realized this, since she knew she had imprisonedPoseidon centuries ago and sealed his soul, submerging him in aneternal slumber, so she wondered who or what could be the reasonbehind his return.
The Emperor of the Seas then proposed her to marry him, andproposed her to help him in the eradication of mankind and in thecreation of his utopia. She again refused Poseidon's proposals,enraging him. She asked him to stop the rains, to what he refused,telling her that the only way to stop the rains and flooding was todrain the waters by demolishing the columns that supported the seasand his Temple, the enormous and almost indestructible MammothPillars. She then offered herself as sacrifice to delay mankind'sdestruction by being locked away in the Main Breadwinner, the mainsupport of the seas, and receiving the waters and punishment onher. She knew that her Saints, sensing her will, would promptlyassist her in stopping this threat to the peace of Earth.
As Athena hoped, her Saints felt her will and Cosmo and preparedfor a new Holy War. The Bronze Saints, along with the remainingSilver and Gold Saints at Sanctuary were aware of the return ofPoseidon. Awakening from a deep coma resulting from the battle ofthe Twelve Temples, the Bronze Saints Pegasus Seiya, Dragon Shiryu, Cygnus Hyoga, and Andromeda Shunquickly gathered at Rozan GoRouHou, where they received thechallenge of Poseidon, delivered by Thetis. She told them thatAthena offered herself as sacrifice to delay the destruction ofEarth, and that the only way to save her and stop the rains was tocome to Poseidon's Temple and destroy the Mammoth Pillars.Following her with the help of Kiki, the Saints were able to reachthe Undersea Temple. Later, Phoenix Ikki joined them. Demolishing thePillars would be no easy task as they were guarded by the immenselypowerful Marina Generals, who represented mythical beings of theseas. They were known as Sea Horse Baian, Scylla Io, Chrysaor Krishna, Lyumnades Kaza, SeaDragon Kanon, Kraken Isaac and Siren Sorrento.
To achieve their goals faster, the Bronze Saints split, andfaced the Marina one by one, on their own. Terrible battles ensued,and the Bronze Saints seemed to face certain death at the hands ofthe Marina. But in their darkest hour, they would be encouraged bytheir goddess Athena, who despite her ordeals was watching overthem, and by the Gold Saints, who, after the battle of the TwelveTemples, had offered their blood to revive the Bronze Cloths.Having received the blood of the Gold Saints, and with the Cosmo ofthe Bronze Saints, who had mastered the Seventh Sense, flowingthrough them, the Bronze Cloths had been imbued with immense newpower and resistance, enough to equal that of the mighty GoldCloths.
With such incomparable new attributes, the Saints were able toequal and surpass the tremendous might of the Marina Generals.Defeating one by one, the Bronze Saints faced a new dilemma:demolishing the Mammoth Pillars, that seemed impervious to any kindof attack. Help arrived promptly, as Libra Roushi had sent OphiuchusShaina and Aries Mu'sapprentice Kiki to the scene, carrying the mighty Libra Gold Cloth.Wielding one of the twelve weapons of the Libra Cloth each, theSaints were able to demolish the Pillars as if they were merelyglass.
Still, the mystery of the resurrection of Poseidon remainedunsolved. How was he able to freem himself from Athena's seal wasan enigma to all. The answers could be many, the power of the sealwore off, Poseidon's might was enough to free him, and many more.But the real answer was much more frightening, and unexpected. Itwas revealed that Poseidon's servant and former Gemini Gold SaintSeaDragon Kanon hadbeen the force behind the return of Poseidon, and the events of theHoly War had actually started 13 years ago, a few days after thereturn of Athena to Earth.
Sent by Aiolos' soul, the holy Sagittarius Gold Cloth arrives toassist the Bronze Saints in the battle against Poseidon. Screenshotfrom the anime.
Kanon, driven by his greed of power, had attempted to convincehis brother, Gold Saint Gemini Saga, to murder Athena and usurp herpower at Sanctuary. Outraged, Saga imprisoned his brother Kanon ata cave in Cape Sounion, were he vowed to break free and kill Athenaand all who dared to oppose him. Some time later, Kanon foundcasually a trident and a small Urn with an ancient seal withAthena's name written in the Greek alphabet. Upon furtherinspection, Kanon realized the trident belonged to the god Poseidonand freed his soul, that was contained within the urn. By breakingthrough a wall in the prison, Kanon found a passageway that lead toa hall in Poseidon's Undersea Temple. He found there the MarinaScales and was inquired by Poseidon why had he awakened him. Posingas a servant of Poseidon, Kanon claimed to be the SeaDragon Marina,and said that he was at his feet, managing to deceive the deity.Poseidon told him that he was ready to awake and engage Athena inbattle, for he bore a grudge towards her, and that the Marina hadalready sensed his will and would soon assemble to assist him.Since Athena was merely a baby then, Poseidon said he would do noharm to her for the time being, and that he would possess the bodyof a young member of the Solo family, Julian, who by then was athree year-old. Doing so, Poseidon remained dormant in Julianwaiting for Athena to mature in the next few years to confront heronce again. Poseidon then entrusted Kanon with seeing to his armybeing assembled to be ready for his return.

Kanon, realizing that he could use Poseidon to achieve his evilgoals, was overjoyed and started to scheme the destruction ofAthena and his rise to power. However, he knew that to be able tomake his dream come true, it was necessary to keep Poseidon fromfully awakening within Julian, because if he did awake completely,he would be unstoppable and his plans would backfire.
Unfortunately, the Saints arrive at Poseidon Temple and battlethe god. Even in his dormant state, Poseidon is strong enough toshatter the Saints' Cloths and to wound them seriously. It seemsthe end of Athena, but from Sanctuary arrives the Sagittarius GoldCloth. Seiya dons the Gold Cloth and tries to hit Poseidon with itsGolden Arrow. Poseidon repels it repeatedly, but in the end,supported by the cosmo of all his friends, Seiya is able to strikePoseidon in the head. For some moments, the god's cosmo disappears.The Saints leave the scene, heading to assist Athena.
Beyond Poseidon's Chamber lies the Main Breadwinner, the lastand strongest pillar in the submarine sanctuary. The efforts of theSaints to shatter ir are futile, even while brandishing the Libraweapons. In despair, Seiya, Shiryu and Hyouga concert an absurdplan: Shiryu and Hyouga would use their strongest attacks as apropellant for Seiya, throwing himself against the pillar, actingas a living battering ram.
As the Saints prepare to act, Poseidon reawakens on Julian'sbody, almost completely. Enraged, he engages the Saints in battleonce again. Phoenix Ikki arrives at the scene and restrains themaddened deity until Shiryu and Hyouga are able to fulfill theirplan. Seiya flies toward the Main Breadwinner fully powered by thecollective cosmo of his friends. Smashing himself against thePillar, the Pegasus Saint is able to release Athena from herpunishment and bring her to safety. Amazingly, the Main Breadwinnershatters and crumbles before an awe-struck Poseidon. Havingdemolished the seven Mammoth Pillars and the Main Breadwinner, theflooding on Earth began to weaken.
The Sea god renews his attack on the Saints. Utterly overpoweredby the deity, the Saints have been gravely wounded by his fury.Poseidon decides to kill the goddess who dared to foil hisambition, throwing his trident at her. In the split second beforethe collision, a Saint acts as a human shield to protect the wearygoddess. It turns out to be Kanon, who ashamed by his sins, regainshis sanity and commits to his duty as a Saint once again.
Poseidon attacks Athena fiercely, but Athena decides to play herhigh card. Bringing her Amphora from the Main Breadwinner, sheapproaches Poseidon and opens it before him. The Amphora attacksPoseidon's soul within Julian and after a fierce struggle seals itwithin itself.
Poseidon's soul enters a dormant state again, and without thePillars and his divine Cosmo, the Sea Sanctuary begins to crumble.With her last ounces of strength, Athena brings her Saints tosafety, and Thetis takes Julian back to the shores.
After this sublime sacrifice by Athena and her Saints, peacereturned to Earth once again.
Hades arc :Divine assistance from Poseidon
In the third act of Kurumada's manga, Poseidon quickly becomes akey character during the climax. Athena has engaged once again hersworn enemy Hades, the result is a war betweendeities of catastrophic proportions for both sides.
After hours of deadly battles, the Bronze, Silver and GoldSaints manage to restrain the invasion of Sanctuary by Hades' army,and proceeded to the Underworld to kill the evil deity. The GoldSaints sacrifice their lives to demolish the enormous Wailing Wall,that separates the Underworld from the Elysion, in order to allowthe Bronze Saints to assist Athena, who was made prisoner by Hades'subordinate twin deities Hypnos and Thanatos
Despite that his soul was sealed again in the Amphora by the current re-incarnation of Athenaa few weeks before, Poseidon manages to once again seize JulianSolo's body to aid the weakened Bronze Saints battle the twin gods,in order to save the world from Hades's tyrannical rule by sendingthe immensely powerful Gold Cloths through the terribleinterdimensional expansion between the Underworld and the Elysion,by means of his divine might, to turn the tide of the battle infavor of Athena.
The Twin Gods commend and criticize Poseidon, a deity ofimmeasurable might, for crossing the Wall of Wailings and helpingthe same people who foiled his attempt to drown the world. Theyalso insinuated that Poseidon's motives may not have been entirelyaltruistic. The Twin Gods hinted that the reason Poseidon washelping the Bronze Saints against Hades was so that Poseidon washoping to attempt to conquer the world again in the future,something that would have been impossible if Hades won.
The sole surviving Marina General, Siren Sorento, is shocked to learn thatthe Emperor of the 7 seas has managed to weaken the seal on hissoul to help Athena's Bronze Saints. However, the Sea God quicklydeparts from Julian Solo's body. Julian wonders the origin ofSorento's perplexity, for he has no recollection of the previousevent. Sorento deduces that Poseidon's soul must have gone toslumber again and wishes that Athena and her Saints bring backlight to this world which is quickly being plunged into darkness byHades's eternal eclipse.
Julian Solo and Sorento resume the long task of aiding those whofound themselves victims during the catastrophe unleashed by thegreat flood from the Poseidon arc.
With their strength renewed by the assistance of the Emperor ofthe Seas, the Bronze Saints were able to continue their struggleagainst the malevolent deities, and after terrible battles andsuffering, were able to overcome their threat and restore peace tothe world once again.
