Mitsumasa Kido's Foundation (Graad Foundation)
I left as subtitle the used denomination more common of the name of this great international corporation because until today your correct nickname is reason of doubts and speculations. You must already have read thereabout Galard, Gallar, Graad, Graal, Glard... what matters, in fact, it is that only two possible and correct attributions exist for this translation. In the mangá, and in all their current works, is it written グラード (Guraado). being like this, would it be impossible to translate it how most of the names above mentioned. (Just Graad and Glard would be in agreement with the transcription of the katakana). However the correct is Graad, because in Saint Seiya's works in English language thrown in Japan (in other words, official) it is written like Graad (Works as the mangá Jump Remix). This says everything and it defines the subject. But I come here to disrupt still more... In anime, seemingly, it is not like this. See this
scene:
Maybe it is orthography mistake of the I Sounded (that already happened before, as in the scene of the 12 houses where appears written "Caricornus", however, nevertheless, the difference is big (it changes of a letter, and increment of other in the end). Well, to leave this annoying part on the orthography of side, that of course is only valid two writing forms: Graad or Graude.
We know that Mitsumasa Kido was a millionaire playboy that traveled for the four songs of the world appreciating the landscapes and the beautiful women. Leaving precious amounts of tips and also of children... (...). Putting aside this fact for the time being, the situation changed when in Greece he/she came to know Aiolos. Maybe as regret for his/her irresponsibility, or maybe for understanding the plot of the destiny (mangá no. 13, page 8). Kido mobilized their resources, and as brilliant strategist, it foresaw to the profits of the future creating a world foundation that would give covering and support to small Saori, the Fundação Graad. Gigantic corporation, to the visa acted in several areas: economical, politics and scientific. (A Mitsubishi of the life...). When of the attack of Geist to an oil tanker. Saori was used even of an own Satellite of the Foundation. His/her area of performance was really very vast, similar today to Greenpace (only that with many more resources, and ideals an as much as different). Mitsumasa Kido worked until the end of his life to raise this Empire tends in view the battle that she would happen among the Horsemen. With this in mind didn't think twice about using of their children (or of orphans, version encourages) as infantry in this war. Spreading for the world 100 children in search of training in the enemy field (bases of the Shrine taken by Saga) with hope that some went well happened and they could struggle for Athena in the right moment. But this stratagem was very risky. In case they linked those children to the Armor of Sagittarius, or to the mysterious man that would have found her with Aiolos (it supplies, it is that nobody had knowledge if this had happened, or if somebody would really have helped the "traitor" Aiolos) unfortunately they would belong all to them eliminated... Fearing for this, Kido still spread more your field of performance. Knowing that old dictation: My enemy's enemies are my friends", Mitsumasa sought them, and with certainty, he only found one. I Pre-suppose this for the that Taizen and Gigantomaquia say: The Fundação Graad researched the wreckage of the sacred garments in the Cemetery of the Armors in Jamir. A thing takes the other, and maybe the Foundation has maintained indirect contact with Mu... not mattering if they knew each other or no, the fact is that Jamir was in the line of performance of the Fundação Graad. Another aspect that Kido should also know was on what happened in the Island of the Queen of the Death, and the renegades that the whole life struggled against the Shrine, for ideals excuses or for the lack of ideals, it doesn't matter. Their enemies' enemies even could come to be precious against the Shrine... (same that it is in combat, without them the Bronze Saints difficultly would be capable face Silver Saints. Without them there would not be "upgrade"). In fact, Kido should have some contact, or knowledge, on each one of the 100 places (ops, nothing guarantees that they are 100 training places, in fact impossible, they are only 48 or 52 Bronze Saints), I say on each whereabouts of their 100 orphans or children. Obvious, if no, difficultly it would order them for their destinies. (Nobody orders somebody for some place that doesn't know). Not even now that maybe knew some his enemy's enemies Kido felt convinced that only this would give right. Researching Jamir exactly, as Taizen, the Fundação Graad says found tracks of old Armors, that they were destroyed in passed combats (more precisely in the Saint War of 1743). Taizen is not explained these armors (Burin, Cup and Altar) they were found before the Era Seiya (1986), or after the end of Saga, when Shrine and Fundação Graad started to act together. If we take into account Gigantomaquia and the character Nicol of Altar have to consider that his armor was already active still in 1986. In other words, it was recovered of Jamir some time before... exactly for the Fundação Graad, and only piece in combat after the death of Saga, maybe under reconstruction of Mu, or Kiki. (Gigantomaquia happens before the phase of Hades). it is only a breach in this history, the fact that MAYBE, in Side History II, Arles went Saint of Altar. It is this implicit in the history, however it is not said LITERALLY, word for word. But if Arles was Saint of Altar, as his armor was to stop at the Cemetery of Jamir, as Taizen says? Well, we already saw in other matters that it encourages and mangá are different. Arles doesn't exist in the mangá. Then, maybe, in it encourages him, the Fundação Graad has found other armors (nothing excludes the fact that they have also found these foregoing ones permanently). Being like this, let us make a small digression. Let us say that at that time of the researches in Jamir they have (also) found some very peculiar Armors, and these researchers have taken this to the knowledge of Kido. Let us imagine that this fact has wakened up in Mitsumasa the desire to make something similar. After all, it didn't cost to try. (To cost cost, but money was not problem... haha). What wants saying is that maybe, the inspiring Armors of the Armors of Steel made in the Fundação Graad by Dr. Asamori went Armors of Athena, more precisely lost Armors of Bronze in the last Saint War. Maybe Vúlpecula (Fox); Ave of the Paradise, Ave Indiana or Toucan (Condor); Southern Fish, Flying Fish or Gilded Fish (Merlim). They are conjecture only, but very probable. Now, acting in three great areas. Kido should feel safer. But it was necessary more. Mitsumasa had in their hands an Armor of Gold, something for really valuable and risky of maintaining in ownership. He treated then of ordering their technicians and more technicians to make up the sacred clothes the such point of seeming a simple copy or something falsified. In this point I make a pause to mention a comment of a friend, Guilherme Coutinho (nick Access), that says in a better way the than I intended to say: - "As Kido to have contact with Mu, I think one more point than it reinforces that is the Armor of Sagittarius to be totally modified during the Galactic War. I don't think that have been make by simple humans, since if just didn't increase a decoration here and to paint of another color, until the wings had disappeared and they reappeared later." (Forum Monte Olimpo, 03/12/04). Mitsumasa Kido should be a man really powerful to get to set up size world plan. It is not of finding strange the fact of many believe that Kido was Zeus' Reincarnation. That scene where Saori visits the planetarium leaves understood this. However in the mangá the passage in that Mitsumasa is questioned directly TO GOD it questions the previous fact. As anything of that is probable, in the sense of having proofs, not of impossibility, let us continue analyzing the Fundação Graad... When it arrived the right moment, Saori, Athena, it should mobilize a great tournament of proportions never views. Boast and media was that Kido more he wanted, because he intended to call the attention of the Shrine, more than that, wanted that Saga if it exposed. That it participated in the actions and that it committed mistakes, underestimating all of the actions already foreseen by Mitsumasa. Then of the 100 boys sent to the boundaries of the world for arduous training, only 10 returned as young Horsemen. As Saori says in the mangá, it was the expected minimum for Kido. Saga, when seeing, until then, 8 Saints of Bronze struggling for a "supposed" Armor of Gold, he decides to act, still secretly, without a lot of exhibition, ordering Hyoga to discover the facts and to give end to the "usurpers". Badly knew Saga that Hyoga was one of the 100 orphans and that the blood would speak stronger in the hour H. was with factors similar to this with that Kido counted. We have although to say that, maybe Saga, until this moment, acted "smoothly" due to the fact of Sion (in the anime) still not to be dead. As soon as vein to die, Saga-Arles had more freedom for action, immediately ordering Dócrates to give end to the Bronze "rebels'" Saints. In the mangá, this didn't happen, but it happened yes other "coincidence". Saga had trusted Ikki as it had trusted Hyoga to give cable of the others. Maybe for influence of Shaka, that must have told to his Great Master encounter with the Saint of Phoenix. "Badly knew Saga that Ikki was one of the 100 orphans"... The Fundação Graad had other point to his favor that the Shrine didn't have. The Foundation was something assimilated by the modern culture. It was a normal company, and all their actions didn't need to be illustrious to the lay people, (at least they didn't need justification, you pray was a company, his goal is profits, they should think haha). Already the Shrine was something strange the banality of the world, he should stay reclusive and distant of the common eyes. Like this, any action against to GOOD SEEN, almost lover, Fundação Graad would be something for really implicating for the Shrine, that if he was not careful could have the world knocking on their doors personified in journalists "paparazzi". This maybe explains the fact of Dócrates to "FLEE OF the POLICE" in a passage of the anime. We see in the Saga G that the Shrine maintains many obscure and secret relationships with the daily world. The fact of a possible Saint to appear in the media maybe it disturbed their businesses "top-secrets." See of this it sorts things out, the Fundação Graad was the Shield of Athena, while their Bronze were her Scepter of Victory.
Trívia - Did they Already see that chapter where Hyoga appears driving a car? But how? He is not 14 years old? How could he drive? Would he be without letter? Haha with certainty, but maybe the answer for that is that he would be driving in a track private of the Fundação Graad, no controlled by the "Japanese State traffic department". Haha like this, Hyoga had authorization to drive... |
