Character background and universe (Lore)

Shiryu is one of the five main Bronze Saints in Saint Seiya. Protected by the constellation of the Dragon, he was trained at the Five Peaks of Rozan by the elderly Master Dohko of Libra, under whom he developed extreme discipline and a remarkable mastery of the Cosmo.

Known for his calm demeanour, his spirit of sacrifice and his loyalty to Athena, Shiryu possesses iconic techniques such as the Rozan Shoryu Ha. His shield and Dragon Fist are regularly depicted as defensive and offensive weapons of exceptional power.

The God Cloth represents the ultimate evolution of his Bronze armour. It appears when the Saint’s Cosmo reaches a level approaching that of the gods and his armour resonates with the blood of Athena. This transformation offers protection and power far superior to previous versions of the Cloth.

This Saint Cloth Myth EX Dragon Shiryu [God Cloth] therefore celebrates one of Shiryu’s most prestigious forms, marking the culmination of his journey amongst Athena’s defenders.
