Hello, this is more of a question than a correction but..is it Helios or Elios? In the Encyclopedia its under 'H' but here, you refer to him as Elios.
"Once she realizes that it was wrong to question her trust, however, it reappears. The Reve disappears once and for all when ChibiUsa actually meets Elios. "

Actually, that is from when I FIRST started the encyclopaedia, several years ago. There are lots of weird little things like that, if you look hard enough. I'm in the process of making full pages for everyone, so I'm updating a LOT of information!!
It's actually supposed to be Helios, not Elios. The name is referring to the ancient Greek god Helios. Although some people say "Elios," that's incorrect. Think about it - Elios is not even a word, and certainly not a Greek god. Why use something that isn't even a word? It should be Helios.
I'm actually working on the page for Helios right now, slowly but surely. With the more important characters such as him, it takes me a long time to do ALL of my research through all of the manga and anime, and all my fact-checking. So look for an updated entry on him soon, with his own page!!

I always thought it was Helios and that Elios was just a nickname. Sort of like people named Christina might be called Chris or Tina.

Nope, lots of people just say his name is "Elios," but they're incorrect. The reason is because the romanization (exact series of sounds of the katakana) of the characters that represent the name is Eriosu, but that is not the way it's meant to be spelled in ENGLISH. Sort of like how  is romanized as Arutemisu, but it is spelled in English as Artemis. The katakana characters are romanized as Eriosu, but that set of characters is meant to represent the French word "Helios," in which the H is silent (unlike in the English word). Keep in mind that French words (as well as English words) are used ALL OVER the Japanese manga, so we end up with lots of both - such as in the name Perle (which is also the French word for pearl!) |

I just wanted to announce that I've finished the Helios/Pegasus entry on my webpage. You can find it in the "Friends" section, in the "Senshi Info" section, or through the encyclopedia through H (Helios) or P (Pegasus)!

I found a booboo! In the manga in volume 12 in Act 36 you don't see Helios in human form, he is in Pegasus form in a golden cage. I only have the first two mangas of SuperS so I know it doesn't mention anything about only being able to visit dreams as Pegasus, this might happen later in the series but not in Act 36 as described. Just pointing that out. Besides, if he can only visit other people as Pegasus, how can he keep appearing as Helios?

I'm always making some crazy typos, because I usually type a little bit, then run off to do something else. Either that, or I'm looking directly at a manga or episode while I'm typing, so I'm not really paying much attention. Oops! At some point, I'm gonna have to go through everything with a fine-toothed comb  |

Just pointing that out. Besides, if he can only visit other people as Pegasus, how can he keep appearing as Helios? *scratches head* ok, I'm confused. Are you looking at the English manga or the Japanese manga? I have the Japanese manga, and I'm DEFINITELY showing him as Helios in Act 36 - it's on page 146, to be precise. As far as the "within a cage" comment, I think that's either a typo (accidentally put two sentences together), or I misinterpretted the picture on page 150, where he is descending into the cage... I'll have to change that later. I'm actually kind of baffled about the Pegasus thing... I'm going to have to reread (again). I know that as Pegasus, he says he is limited to that form, and when he returns as Helios in Act 36, Nehellenia says that he "escaped her curse" just the once, meaning that maybe he got out that one time (a pretty significant time, since it is when he kissed ChibiUsa), so perhaps he can't escape it again? Not sure... must re-read!! |

Yeah it shows Helios human descending into the cage, but when he gets there it shows Pegasus lying in the cage, your page says: As I said before, I only have the first two for SuperS, so it might show him later in the cage, I'm just pointing out that in Act 36 he isn't in the cage. Also about the dream thing, I have no clue lol, I just know that he does say something about escaping, but I just want to know what's going on with the picture  It looks like the spirit of Helios is seeping back into the Pegasus body... which is REALLY confusing because shouldn't it be the other way around? Sometimes the manga completely loses me... I would think it was just he fell and then turned into the Pegasus, but if you look at the picture he's really wispy, even moreso then most manga pictures. I don't know the manga confuses me so badly.... |
