Are Seiya and Shun more a Base-Breaking Character than Scrappy? They (or Shun at least) have some fans.

As part of the cleanup, I took the following entries out:
- The Problem with Licensed Games: We yet have to see a Saint Seiya game on any console that isn't critically bashed.
- Actually, the Playstation 3 game Saint Seiya: Sanctuary Battle has gotten recent reviews, and the upcoming fighting game is getting some good buzz, with people comparing it with JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Heritage for the Future.
This one contradicts itself. Maybe something can stay, but not nattered like this.
- Saint Seiya has SO many yaoi couples that is actually hard to enumerate all of them...i can add Shun/Sorrento,Hyoga/Camus,Ikki/Shun (incest!),Saga/Kanon (again!),Mu/Aldebaran,Ikki/Shaka,etc etc etc. In fact since Saint Seiya was so popularized in Europe and Latin America in the early internet times (and also when the occidentals anime fans begin to gather in there), one of the animes (if not the most) with more yaoi fanfictions was Saint Seiya (and most popular yaoi writers ever begun their "careers" with it also).
That example needs to be split up before it can go back.

- Saori is reviled by "fandom feminists" who hate how she prefers to act as The Strategist, use her Healing Hands and become a Barrier Maiden, rather than being an Action Girl like the female Saints. This apparently makes her "an useless Load and Distressed Damsel without any value for the show"... never mind that the *real* Goddess Athena (Goddess of Strategy and Defensive Warfare) acted like that in Greek mythology, guiding the heroes and planning their strategies rather than fighting unless it was really needed, and that Saori herself always was the one to deliver the Finishing Move on the Big Bad, after going through lots of crap to help the guys as much as she can.
Taken from The Scrappy, at face value it reads less like "Why people hate Saori" and more like "why people who hate Saori are idiots". The Scrappy is character who is hated by most of the fanbase, not just the one who has some hatedom (that's every character, if you dig enough), and from what i see here she's not that hated if someone put this entry this way.
