Saintia Sho volume 3 - Masami Kuramada

 The third volume of this series, which btw animated was quite good yet still not received a second season.



And it follows more of the female saint handmaiden's of Athena, the Saintias.

During the face off with Eris, Athena comes to the help of Shoko to reach a stalemate.  But as Eris flees, she pulls Shoko to her lair with her, resulting in the untrained saint being held captive by the dryad Murder Phobos.



She is rescued by the saint send to Eris's sanctuary to assassinate her, Gold saint Scorpio Milo.  he quickly makes short work of Phobos and larer Ate, as he advances to the place where Eris slumbers.  Here he is held back by a fallen Silver saint, Orion Rigel.  He fights not for Eris, but with the resolve to protect her host, Shoko's sister and the woman he loves, Kyoko.

Shoko arrives as Milo defeats Rigel and stop him.  This allows Shoko one last chance to reach out to her sister and try to save her, but the battle has caused Eris to awaken.  Milo is forced as such to defeat her, wiping away Kyoko's cosmo as well in the process.

An action packed volume, focussing mostly on the raw might of a Gold saint.  The manga now stands at the point of the Galaxian Wars, where the original series began.  Let's see when we get volume four how it continues, as with 3 fully dedicated volumes the prelude is already far more detailed then it was in the anime itself.
