Research into *Saint Seiya: The Hades Chapter - Inferno* and other official franchise media confirms no character named Aspides dell'Hydra exists. The name Aspides connects solely to the EUNAVFOR ASPIDES maritime operation, unrelated to *Saint Seiya*. Hydra corresponds to Hydra Ichi, a documented Bronze Saint of Athena, though never identified as Aspides dell'Hydra. Synopses, character lists, and episode descriptions for *The Hades Chapter - Inferno* OVAs and related works also contain no reference to this name. Consequently, Aspides dell'Hydra remains absent from the franchise's documented elements.
