Saint Seiya - Merak Beta Haegen- Original Anime Production Douga + Storyboard copy

This rare combination of original production douga and storyboard features Merak Beta Hagen, a fierce God Warrior from Asgard, as seen in the Saint Seiya: Asgard Arc. Hagen, the warrior who serves Polaris Hilda, is known for his powerful fire-based attacks and his undying loyalty to Hilda, even in the face of betrayal. His signature move, Great Ardent Pressure, is one of the most iconic in the Asgard saga, making him a formidable opponent.

The douga captures the intensity and precision of Hagen's character during an action sequence, likely in a moment of combat where he displays his fiery powers. The detailed line work and emotion in his expression reflect the inner turmoil Hagen faces as he grapples with his loyalty to Hilda and his eventual realization of the truth. The accompanying storyboard provides context, illustrating the sequence of action and how it unfolds within the episode. It allows fans to see how the scene was planned, from layout to camera angles and direction.

This douga and storyboard set offers an exclusive glimpse into the production process, where storyboarding lays the groundwork for action, and dougas refine the character's movements and expressions. It's a significant piece for collectors who value both the artistic and narrative elements that make Saint Seiya such an enduring series, particularly the beloved Asgard Arc.
