Voiced by: Sho Hayami

Baian was the protector of the North Pacific Ocean's Mammoth Pillar, one of the eight that kept the water above from drowning the Underwater Sanctuary. He had sworn to protect the pillar at all costs. Pegasus Seiya was the first to reach him and initially struggled with the Mariner. Months before, Seiya had defeated the Silver Saint Lizard Misty, a man that, like Baian, used air currents to render himself invulnerable. With the experience reaped from that battle and his reinforced Cloth, the Saint soundly defeated Baian.^[3]

Scylla Io (スキュラのイオ, Sukyura no Io)

Voiced by: Issei Futamata

Io used attacks that matched the six creatures that made up the Scylla beast from Greek myth, but, after withstanding Scylla's attacks, Shun was able to successfully counterattack each of them. Shun spared Io, but as he prepared to destroy the Pillar with the weapons of the Libra Cloth, Io, compelled by his adamant devotion to Poseidon, jumped in front of the attack to stop it.

Chrysaor Krishna (クリュサオルのクリシュナ, Kuryusaoru no Kurishuna)

Voiced by: Masaharu Sato

Krishna was the guardian of the Indian Ocean Mammoth Pillar. He employed a golden lance and spiritual power derived from the Kundalini transcendental forces. Dragon Shiryū challenged the Chrysaor Mariner. The lance proved to be too much for the Dragon Saint until he remembered that the spirit of Excalibur laid in his right arm, handed down to him by Shura. Thus he was able to break the lance in half. Krishna was not fazed and meditated to flare his Cosmo to the maximum, unleashing a final attack on Shiryū. The combat ended with Dragon Saint hitting Krishna's Chakra points while losing his sight from Krishna's attack. Krishna was defeated and Shiryū destroyed the Pillar with the help of Kiki.^[5]

He took out Pegasus Seiya, Cygnus Hyōga and Andromeda Shun with his illusions. However, when Phoenix Ikki first arrived, Caça was unable to sense any treasured feelings. He only found one enclosed deep in the Saint's heart. This, however, angered the Phoenix Saint, leading to the Limnades Mariner's death.^[6]

Voiced by: Ryusei Nakao

There he became a Mariner and guardian of the Mammoth Pillar of the Arctic Ocean.

He met with Taurus Aldebaran's resistance, but Athena interrupted the battle, ordering Sorrento to take her to Poseidon. He obliged and returned to the Underwater Sanctuary. Later, when the Saints invaded, he faced Andromeda Shun, who after a fierce fight managed to defeat Sorrento and destroy his pillar. During the events, Sorrento became suspicious of the Sea Dragon Mariner, concluding that Poseidon's resurrection and the ensuing war were the results of Sea Dragon's ambition and not Poseidon's. These suspicions were confirmed during Phoenix Ikki's battle against Sea Dragon Kanon. After Athena sealed Poseidon's soul and returned to the surface, Sorrento did the same and sought out Julian Solo, the former host of Poseidon's soul. Together they decided to travel the world and help the people that suffered in the catastrophe caused by Poseidon. Sorrento was still with Julian when Poseidon reawakened and sent help to the Bronze Saints in the battle in Elysion.^[1][2]

He then proceeds by using his Cosmic Marionettion technique and traps the Saints, whom he tortures by breaking Dohko's hand. But as he is about to break Shion's neck, Garuda Suikyō appears.

As the revived Gold Saints came to Hades castle with Athena's body, Zelos was there to greet them. The Gold Saints disregarded him and Aquarius Camus pushed him aside with his cold winds. Thus, when the revived Saints lay dying on the floor due to their time limit, the Specter took out his frustration on Camus.

Voice Actor: Hikaru Midorikawa

Eagle Marin's long lost brother. Mentioned by Ophiuchus Shaina in the final volume of Masami Kurumada's manga. His background was further revealed in the Tenkai-Hen Josō ~Overture~ theatrical feature and its introductory short comic book, authored by Kurumada, in both of which he appears as an Angel. His movie incarnation now remains out of the Saint Seiya canon, as he is now being featured in the latest installments of Saint Seiya: Next Dimension, in which he also appears as an Angel, chained in the prison of the moon and is released by Callisto, with the mission to assassinate Pegasus Seiya, his reward being his freedom if he fulfills it. His Glory is specifically named Sleep Angel Version Glory (スリープ・エンジェル・バーション天衣, Surīpu Enjeru Bāshon Gurōrī). His mission comes to a halt due to the intervention of Cygnus Hyōga and Eagle Marin, whom he finds familiar. Although Kurumada has retained many of his original traits, whether he will remain the same character portrayed in the film or a completely new rendition, is yet to be revealed.

The Lunar Realm

The Lunar Realm (月の世界, Tsuki no Sekai) is ruled by the beautiful goddess Artemis, older sister to Athena and younger sister of Apollon.

Moon Goddess Artemis (月の女神・アルテミス, Tsuki no Megami Arutemisu)

The beautiful goddess of the moon, and elder sister to Athena. The goddess is initially hostile to her sister due to her battles with Hades and Poseidon. Though she reveals to Athena that the only way to remove Hades' curse from Seiya's body is to travel back in time with the help of Chronos. Her base of operations is the temple of the moon, situated on the slopes of Mount Olympus. This temple is protected by numerous soldiers called "Satellites".^[25]

Handmaid Callisto (侍女・カリスト, Jijo Karisuto)

Servant of Artemis and high-ranking officer among the Satellites, the personal guard of Artemis. She is very caring of her goddess, and will resort to anything for her safety. Callisto initially warns the goddess Athena not to visit Artemis because she is angered by the goddess of war's past conflicts. Athena refuses, so Callisto allows her to pass. She still deems her very risky to Artemis so she later sends Lascomoune, captain of the Satellites, to kill Athena.^[26][27] After her failure, she resorts to sending the much more powerful warrior, Tōma the Angel, to kill Athena's Saints, releasing him from the Lunar Prison. In chapter 30 of Saint Seiya Next Dimension, during Tōma's reintroduction to the canon, Callisto replaces the shady, unidentified character that freed the Angel, in Kurumada's short introductory comic book for the now apocryphal ~Overture~ film.

Moon Witch Hecate (月の魔女ヘカーテ, Tsuki no Majo Hekāte)

The elderly witch of the moon. Kurumada based her on the mythological persona Hecate. She tricks Athena into cutting off her hair by means of an illusion of multiple pathways to the temple of the moon.

Later, she resurfaces unharmed, as she was able to survive Chronos' assault.^[26] The young Hecate displays a childish and whimsical behavior and has exhibited the ability to transform into a crow. Sometime after Athena's departure, she assists the Saints in reaching Athena's garland, which leads them to the era of the past Holy War. Hecate is a thousand years old, and it is the keeper of the road leading to the temple of Artemis, situated on the slopes of Olympus, which begins with a very large stone column, surmounted by a crescent moon.^[25]
