French critic Thomas Berthelon , writing for Actua BD , makes a note on the unoriginality of the plot . While the manga is full of references to '' Saint Seiya '' , the story is based on the same known schemes and the characters are too similar to the protagonists of the original series . The critic writing for Manga-News also notes that the exchanges between Saints and Titans can become repetitive . Meanwhile , for Brazilian critic Pedro Hunter of Omelete , '' Episode.G '' sets itself apart from the usual '' shōnen '' manga by not featuring only endless battles and undeveloped storylines . He finds the way Okada depicts his characters as an integrating part of the real world particularly interesting and highlights the inclusion of real life events like the Three Mile Island accident into the plot
