The first part of the fourth volume is the highest point of the arc of the Black Knights, with the clash between the Pegasus Seiya and Ikki the Phoenix. While volumes 2 and 3 were very action-oriented and combat, Volume 4 begins to introduce the "meta-story" with a beginning revelation about the origins of the children who have now become knights bronze . The great priest and the sanctuary appear small touches in the dialogues, and we guess that these will become important later.
In addition to new characters introduced (4 silver knights) and - of course - bronze knights, the author develops or returns characters seen in previous volumes: Marine, who trained Seiya, and Mu, the mysterious individual can repair armor.
Also guess - even if it was already somewhat the case in the previous volumes - that Seiya will become the star of the series, the strongest bronze knights.
The quality of this deluxe edition is undeniable and allows to (re) discover this cult series in the best conditions.
