Sagitta Silver Cloth

The Sagitta Silver Cloth is one of the 88 Cloths in Saint Seiya. It is one of the Silver Cloths which is the second rank of Cloths.

Saint Seiya
Created by the alchemists of Mu along with the other 87 Cloths. In the 20th century it was given to Ptolemy. He wore it when he on the order of the Pope, attacked Saori Kido. He succeeded in hitting the woman with a golden arrow that would slowly pierce her heart, but Kido was surrounded by several Bronze Saints. One whom immediately retaliated and struck Ptolemy with enough force that cracked and shattered the Sagitta Cloth. Ptolemy soon succumbed to his injuries and was buried in the cemetery.

The Lost Canvas
The Sagitta Silver Cloth is used by the unnamed Sagitta Saint of the 18th century. The Saint is seen wearing it during a mission to Italy where he and his fellow Saints encounter some of Hades' 108 Specters in a Forest Cathedral and are killed. The Sagitta Cloth and the other Cloths remain with the Saints bodies in the Forest Cathedral. The Saint accepts an offer to serve Hades, and receives a new body and a Surplice version of the Sagitta Cloth which is destroyed by Libra Dohko and Aries Shion.

Two hundred years before, the Sagitta Silver Cloth is worn by Archon who uses it in the Holy War against Hades. He becomes brainwashed during a civil war in the Sanctuary and battles Cancer Sage until he is reverted back to his senses. Archon then joins the other Saints in restoring order in Athena's Sanctuary.

Saintia Sho
The Sagitta Cloth appears in Saintia Sho, where Ptolemy wears it during an audience with the Pope in Sanctuary.

Design and Creation
The Sagitta Cloth was designed by Masami Kurumada for the first theatrical release of Saint Seiya. Kurumada contributed design sketches for the new Saints that would appear as the antagonists. The design was redesigned by Shingo Araki into the version that Maya is wearing, where it received a blue colouring. Kurumada used his original design for the version that Ptolemy wears in Chapter 29: Sanctuary! The Twelve Palaces of the manga. When the chapter was made in the anime adaptation, Shingo Araki would not redesign it to the version that Maya uses and kept more to Kurumada's version.
