!!Villains

[[folder:Cassios]]
!!! Voiced By: Creator/BanjoGinga (JP), Maurice Dean Witt ([=DiC=] EN), Matt Culpepper (ADV EN), Creator/AndrewLove (Sentai/Netflix EN), Creator/HermanLopez (LA Spanish)
[[quoteright:187:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/PP041-Cassios_7534.jpg]]

A pupil of Shaina and one of the main contenders for the Pegasus Cloth, which he loses to Seiya. He mostly serves as Shaina's right hand man.
----
* AdaptationalBadass: In the anime version, he is able to defeat both Shiryu and Shun without any trouble, nor any Cloth. Also, he fought Aiolia till the end and even holding him for a while (implying he awakens his Cosmo), going as far as [[TakingTheBullet taking the bullet]] for Seiya, instead of killing himself like in the manga.
* AntiVillain: Cassios is no saint, pun intended, but compared to some of the more gruesome villains he's more or less just an angry thug; As shown when he throws his life away for Shaina's sake and saves both Seiya and Aiolia when his strength is put in the right direction.
* AxCrazy: In the manga version, he collected the severed heads of his opponents, and was planning on doing the same thing with Seiya.
* BadassNormal: Cassios is strong enough to fight Saints if they are not invested fully in the fight, as Shun and Shiryu learn. He wasn't a candidate for the Pegasus armor for nothing.
* AdaptationalNiceGuy: Downplayed. He is still pretty sadistic in the anime. But at least he didn't kill his defeated opponents, nor he collected his heads, as he did in the manga.
* TheBrute: He has no special techniques, only brute force. Adverts most of the nastier aspects after his defeat at Seiya's hands, and cares for a wounded Shaina, [[spoiler:going as far as to save the object of her love, even though he hates Seiya.]]
* DumbMuscle: Didn't even know about Cosmo when he fought Seiya the first time. Seiya even called him dumb.
* EarAche: Got his cut by Seiya during their fight for the Pegasus Cloth.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: He truly cared for his SexyMentor Shaina.
* {{Gonk}}: Cassios isn't exactly a pretty man and Seiya disfiguring him further didn't help either.
* GoOutWithASmile: [[spoiler:He dies content after accomplishing his HeroicSacrifice.]]
* HellishPupils: Early on they make him look even more sinister.
* HeroicSacrifice: [[spoiler:He takes Seiya's place and dies during the fight with Leo Aiolia, in order to wake Aiolia from the control of Saga's ''Imperial Phantasm Fist''. Not for Seiya, mind you, but to avoid Shaina the pain of losing the man she loved.]]
* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: Again, [[spoiler:he sacrifices his life to save Seiya from a BrainwashedAndCrazy Leo Aiolia, not to save Seiya (because Cassios loathes him) but because he knows Shaina loves Seiya and thus would be hurt if Seiya died]].
* LaserGuidedKarma: When he first fought Seiya, he liked to threaten him with taking apart his limbs bit by bit, and offered to start with his ear. That very same fight it's ''he'' who loses his ear to Seiya.
* MauveShirt
* MonstrosityEqualsWeakness: He has enormous physical strength and stamina to match his huge body, but due to not having mastered the use of Cosmo, in the end he's less powerful than an actual Saint.
* MusclesAreMeaningless: Because Cosmo is everything; with him in particular this is very relative, as he is strong enough to kick Shun and Shiryu's asses to try and keep them away from fighting Aiolia, showing that he is more than capable of fighting Saints if they are caught unaware. [[spoiler:Also, Aiolia's punches can ''flatten forests'' and any normal person would have been atomized by his attacks, yet Cassios was still able to briefly hold him back.]]
* NotDrawnToScale: He gets pretty big at times during the first episode. When the twelve Houses arc rolled around they found a more realistic height.
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: In the beginning, he mocks Seiya for his Japanese heritage, saying that only Greeks should be able to inherit the Cloths. To be fair, quite a few of the other Saints in the beginning also expressed this opinion.
* TeensAreMonsters: Despite being merely 15, in the manga version he already killed many of his opponents, and collected their heads, as a serial-killer.
* UndyingLoyalty: To Shaina.
* UnskilledButStrong: He tossed Shiryu and Shun around like ragdolls, and was briefly able to [[spoiler:restrain Aeolia (a Gold Saint himself) in a bearhug to prevent him from beating up Seiya]], but he never mastered Cosmo and thus, never learned any techniques that make use of it, [[spoiler:so he loses his life to Aeolia in the end.]] And to be completely fair, Shiryu and Shun had only just recently finished their own encounters with Gold Saints and were likely still tired. Shiryu in particular had his soul torn out ''twice.''
** The anime implies he awakens his Cosmo to hold Aiolia back even just a little longer, if the white aura of energy around his body can be trusted.
* YoungerThanHeLooks: Despite looking like a mature old man, turns out is merely ''15''.

!!! Voiced by: Creator/MasaharuSato (JP), Creator/JohnGremillion (ADV EN)
A former apprentice who was cast down as a candidate for saint for his violent tendencies and penchant for murder.

* AxCrazy: He loves violence. His cruelty is the reason for his failure to become a Saint.
* TheBrute: Has an enormous strength. Also acts as a {{Foil}} to Cassios, who shows far more humanity and noble qualities by the time Jaki appears.
* DisneyVillainDeath: He dies after falling off a cliff.
* EveryoneHasStandards: On the receiving end: Saints are notoriously ruthless {{Combat Pragmatist}}s, with their ranks including the likes of [[NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast Cancer]] [[CardCarryingVillain Deathmask]]... But ''this guy'' was rejected.
* FillerVillain: An anime-only character that fights Marin in the middle of the Twelve Temples arc.
* {{Foil}}: He's pretty much Cassios without redeeming traits: both are huge, muscular and brutal, but while at least Cassios has a heart and genuinely wants to conquer the Cloth of Pegasus, Jaki is a monster who's only in for the kill and doesn't even give a crap about becoming a Saint, as long as he can maim and kill.

!!! Voiced by: Creator/MasaharuSato (JP), Creator/JohnGremillion (ADV EN)
Gigars is Pope Arles' second-in-command.
----

* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: When Gigars sees that Ikki has killed the Fire Saint, he and the guards who accompanied him sanctuary run away. Since then, he disappeared and was never seen again.
* TheDragon: Gigas was at first the personal adviser and chief of staff to the Pope Arles, commanding and directing the missions of the Saints of Sanctuary of Athena.
* EvilChancellor: Has a quite high position, and a nasty disposition.
* EvilMentor: To Phaeton.
* EyepatchOfPower: It's actually ''[[MundaneMadeAwesome a freaking diamond]]''.
* FillerVillain: He and Phaeton appear only in the anime.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: He disappears from the series after the Fire Saint is defeated.
* YouHaveFailedMe: Explicitly fears this after the Crystal Saint is defeated, and takes matters in his hands, going to Japan with his protégé, the Fire Saint. His failure leads him to not come back to the Sanctuary and disappear forever, in fear for his life.

[[folder:Ohko (''Anime Only'')]]
!!! Voiced By: Creator/KazuhikoInoue (JP), Scott Rudy (ADV EN), Marcos Patiño (LA Spanish)
[[quoteright:149:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/PP151-Ohko_9096.jpg]]

Ohko is a former pupil of Libra Dohko and Shiryu's former sparring partner. He was rejected by Dohko due to his violent ways.
----

* ArrogantKungFuGuy: Grew up to become this, after the loss of his parents and the rejection from his former master.
* AnimalMotifs: Tiger.
* AntiVillain: He's not really evil, just very violent and seeking rivals to crush and become a stronger fighter. Despite his ways, Ohko still keeps some standards, as he proves it when he rescues Shunrei after she almost drowns in the Rozan waterfalls (Shiryu was unable to save her due to being blind at the time). He challenges Shiryu to a duel to the death, but when he learns Shiryu has become blind, he keeps it fair by blindfolding himself because he truly wants to defeat Shiryu honorably. When he still loses to Shiryu, he admits Shiryu was the stronger fighter after all and as he lays down agonizing from their fight, he asks the Dragon Saint to keep fighting for the sake of those he loves.
* BloodKnight: He felt impotent and unable to do anything the day his parents were killed by some bandits. Ever since then, he became obsessed with power to become stronger, and as he grew up as a fighter he would turn to a life of violence, seeking out thugs and any other strong people he could challenge.
* CainAndAbel: In the childhood friends sense, the Cain to Shiryu's Abel.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: As he reveals it to his former master Dohko, Ohko's parents were killed by bandits when he was just a little child. He was then taken in by Dohko as a disciple, but he became obsessed with fighting and becoming a stronger warrior and soon, he was rejected by the old master, turning into a violent wanderer challenging fighters here and there.
* DeceptiveDisciple: Played straight with he and Libra Dohko. Though Ohko was more of a {{JerkAss}} than anything. Even then, Dohko accepts him as a disciple again after his final fight versus Shiryu.
* {{Delinquent}}: He was quite powerful, but he had a violent temper, breaking Dohko's rules and seeking fights with whoever he could.
* DiedInYourArmsTonight: Shiryu's. Before dying, the hatred that Ohko held for the one who prevented him from becoming a Saint disappeared, and the brother-like affection for him returns. So he dies more or less in peace in Shiryu's arms, asking him to go on forward.
* DubNameChange: Demetrios in italian's dub. An offline quote from Dohko also implies that he's not native to China, but moved in.
* FillerVillain: Appears in two anime-only episodes.
* RedOniBlueOni: Red to Shiryu's blue.
* TheRival: To Shiryu for the Dragon's Cloth.
* TigerVersusDragon: Played straight, his animal motif is a tiger and he fights Shiryu whose own motif is a dragon.

Gigars' second-in-command and eventual successor.
----

* EvilRedhead: Has red hair.
* FillerVillain: He and Gigars appaer only in the anime.
* NoNonsenseNemesis: When he's put in charge of recovering the Gold Cloth helmet, his ''first'' move is to send in [[PersonOfMassDestruction Lizard Misty]], [[TheAce a fighter so respected]] that Shaina stopped demanding ''she'' was sent the moment she heard because it was obvious he'd come back triumphant, and then ''gave him back-up'' in the form of the almost as formidable Marin and Centaurus Babel and the almost unbeatable duo of [[MightyGlacier Cetus Moses]] and Hound Asterion (a ''mind reader''), just to stay on the safe side. {{Deconstructed}} when Marin's betrayal and the arrival of the Steel Saints cause everyone else to die, as the only Silver Saint of comparable power is [[AxCrazy Shaina]] and he has no authority over the Gold Saints.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Also known as Bhaton.
* SmugSnake
* TheUnreveal: Is never stated if he is a Saint or not, but he does wear some metal accessories, and has some fighting ability.
* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: Disappears after the Sanctuary's battle.

Ikki's only friend and love interest at Death Queen Island, a slave in the manga and Guilty's daughter in the anime. Noted for her marked resemblance to Shun.
----

* AbusiveParents: In the anime, she was Master Guilty's daughter. In the manga, she was a mere slave girl sold to Guilty's crew.
* BeautyEqualsGoodness: Very sweet and very cute.
* BreakTheCutie: She was nearing complete breakage when she's first seen, but then...
* FlorenceNightingaleEffect: With Ikki.
* HairOfGoldHeartOfGold: Holds the distinction of [[BecauseYouWereNiceToMe being the only person on Death Queen Island]] who showed Ikki any measure of kindness.
* IdenticalStranger: A genderflipped and blonde Shun. Lampshaded by Esmeralda and Ikki themselves:
--> '''Esmeralda''': What, Ikki? You thought I was your little brother again?
--> '''Ikki''': Ah yeah, sorry about that. You guys look alike so much, except for your hair and eye color...
* InnocentFlowerGirl: She loved flowers. A delicate wreath of fresh flowers adorned the cross he had fashioned for her the day she died.
* KillTheCutie: Guilty killed her in front of Ikki's own eyes. [[UnstoppableRage At least he got the anger he was looking for when that happened...]]
* TheLostLenore: To Ikki in the Anime.
* TheMedic: She cares for Ikki after training sessions by sneaking in the dungeon where he was resting.
* MoralityPet: She and the Saints are this for Ikki.
* OffingTheOffspring: Anime-only.
* OneTrueLove: Ikki doesn't show it [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold much, if at all]], but considering that Ikki was willing to kill a perfect illusion of his own beloved younger brother, and ''still'' admits to Casa that had he searched his mind more thoroughly and found Esmeralda earlier, he would have fallen for his trap, then hell, yes she's this.
* RelatedInTheAdaptation: To Master Guilty. Which arguably makes her treatment by him even ''[[AbusiveParents worse]]''.
* TooGoodForThisSinfulEarth: A compassionate girl, who ends dying at the hands of Guilty.

A childhood friend of Seiya and the caretaker of the orphanage where both her and Seiya grew up.
----

* AllLoveIsUnrequited: Poor girl doesn't even get to tell Seiya her feelings proper before she and the orphanage are unceremoniously chucked out of the narrative.
* BettyAndVeronica: She's the Betty to Saori's Veronica, being Seiya's childhood Friend. Keep in mind, Seiya has only been ship teased with both girls.
* DubNameChange: "Lania" in Italian.
* GirlishPigtails: Her hairstyle.
* NiceGirl: Is really patient with the children at the orphanage.
* OutOfFocus: When she was first introduced, she and Seiya knew each other well, and even had a bit of ShipTease due to her one-sided crush on Seiya. By the time the Hades arc rolls around and she's finally referenced again, Seiya can only remember the poor girl as that little girl he made cry one time when he stomped in the flowers. Even when the panel itself ''had her with a nametag''.
* TeamMom: She chose to stay at the orphanage she was raised in and became this to the children there. The anime had her in the vicinity of three troublesome kids most of the time she was given some screen, plus she explains to Seiya that she's good with kids so she voluntarily asked the director if she could work for the place.

[[quoteright:190:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/PP021-Mitsumasa-Kido_591.jpg]]
The mysterious head of the Graad Foundation, Mitsumasa Kido is a Japanese multimillionaire who adopted Saori Kido as his granddaughter and a multitude of children that wound up growing up to be the Saints of Athena.
----

* AbusiveParents: Considering that the Bronze Saints are his biological kids (manga) or his pupils (anime), the TrainingFromHell he made them go through qualifies as abusive for sure.
* TheChessMaster: He is the head of the Graad Foundation and used it to find his large number of children (or locate and pretty much abduct a just as large number of orphan boys) that, in the future, become the Bonze Saint and Athena's protectors.
* DubNameChange: To keep up with Saori Kido becoming "Lady Isabel" and Tokyo itself being "New Luxor", Mitsumasa Kido is renamed "Alman of Thule" in the Italian version of the anime.
* KansasCityShuffle: In the manga, he changes the appearance of the Sagittarius Cloth on purpose, to the point that the Silver Saints think it is a fake.
* KarmaHoudini: Sacrifices his own children, gets to die of old age before any of them could make him bleed for it.
* PetTheDog: For all that he mistreated the Bronze Saints, at least he raised Saori to be respectful of them and scolded her for treating them like slaves.
* ReallyGetsAround: In the manga, he fathered all those young Saints to different women.
* ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney: He holds the Galactic Tournament and reveals the Saints to the world, much to the cringe of Sanctuary. [[AllCrimesAreEqual They don't take it well]].
* SecretKeeper: He keeps hidden that Saori was the reincarnation of Goddess Athena, who reincarnates in a human being every 200 years.
* UnrelatedInTheAdaptation: In the anime all the Bronze Saint kids are his ''adopted'' children. In the manga, he was really their ''biological'' father, a fact which drives Ikki in particular [[GoMadFromTheRevelation pretty mad]].
* WellIntentionedExtremist: He arranged for a bunch of boys (either his biological sons or helpless orphans, depending on the version) to be subjected to lots of abuse and TrainingFromHell, because he sincerely believed that it'd help to save the world.
** The anime shows that he was very aware that the boys would suffer horribly and wasn't happy with the idea itself, such as when he tells Saori about the boys' future as her Saints and tells her to treat them well when they return.
** Even in the manga, when Saori reveals herself as Athena, a flashback shows he had the horrible realization that he will have to sacrifice the children, and bear their hatred for it. But he still did it.

Natassia was Cygnus Hyoga's mother who perished after her ship sank in the Arctic Ocean, leaving the ship stranded from the thick icy surface. She is the main reason Hyoga became a Saint.

* HumanPopsicle: She died when the ship sinks into the icy sea near Siberia. As the ship sunk in the icy sea, her body remained unblemished.
* MissingMom: To Hyoga. Having the ability to visit her frozen tomb was the real reason who drove Hyoga to became a Saint.
* PosthumousCharacter: Natassia is a recurrent character in Hyoga's memories, and this was used many times by his enemies, to make him remember the grief he felt when he lost his mother. Except the [=DiC=] dub (see above).

Tatsumi is Mitsumasa Kido and later Saori Kido's personal butler. He is the executor of the Graad Foundation in Saori's absence.
----

* BattleButler: He is apparently good at kendo. [[SubvertedTrope Not that it does him any good in a show where superpowered boys are the rule.]]
* ButtMonkey: He always tries to be strong and protect Saori but even the Sanctuary soldiers can defeat him. Is the series' comic relief.
* TheDogBitesBack: Ikki comes back six years after the huge beatdown Tatsumi gave him, and after his fiery entrance he makes a vow before the crowd to make him pay for what he's done. ''And he fills it right there''.
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: He starts as a rather flat and downright abusive retainer for the future Saints, later develops as a man who was honor-bound to protect Saori (while still being rather unpleasant to the saints), and ultimately was the series' comic relief.
* DemotedToComicRelief: As the series advances, his role in the story gets reduced to this.
* DubNameChange: As with his masters, he forgoes the Japanese name in the Italian Dub and is simply called "Myloc".
* DumbMuscle: He's pretty strong and will fight for Miss Saori even if the odds are stacked against him, but not too smart.
* GoodIsNotNice: He was rather cruel and abusive towards the saints during their childhood.
* ImprovisedWeapon: Readies himself with a Kendo suit and shinai for the journey to the Sanctuary. Lampshaded in the Italian dub, where, since Kendo at the time of airing wasn't widely known, he's not even sure about what he has found, but he thinks it looks intimidating.
* KarmaHoudini: The fact that Tatsumi hasn't been tortured to death by the same Saints he abused as children is nothing short of a miracle.
* KickTheDog: Beats young Ikki pretty bad by tying him upside-down with a kendo stick and kept telling him that his sacrifice of going to Death Queen Island doesn't matter since Shun was going to an even worse place.
* JerkAss: He brutally abused the kids at first, specially Ikki.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: But he genuinely cared for Saori, whom he helped raise after Mitsumasa Kido's death.
* MyMasterRightOrWrong: Follows Mitsumasa Kido and later Saori Kido through the [[spoiler: 100 orphan controversy]] and when the Sanctuary was going after Saori for being a ''False Athena''.
* OhCrap: His reaction when he sees Ikki really survived Death Queen Island.
