Saint Seiya fans who understands what that series was trying to teach/show us will understand this new adaptation! And no, it's not a complete remake with girl Saints and a girl replacing Pegasus Seiya... This is not an anime like Sailor Moon either. This one is much better and full of emotions. You can't help but root for the main characters and hope for the best... The story is actually happening during the original series of Saint Seiya that aired in the 80s. There may be some slight plot holes here and there, but overall, it ties in perfectlywith the original series. I must admit I was skeptical even before watching this new anime, but I am so glad that I started watching it because I would have missed out on an amazing story full of emotions...

The art does not follow the same style as the manga but that was on purpose. This anime tried to keep the same style as the original Saint Seiya series with a modern twist to it. I find that is perfectly fine as they have sequences where the animators drew masterpieces.

The soundtrack of this anime is also topnotch! I give that a solid "Godlike" 10. ;D Many tracks takes cue from the original serie's soundtrack and add its own twist to it. There are many new tracks in this anime that has the Saint Seiya uplifting theme and those are also amazing songs!!! Some tracks are of course, very sad/tragic... but nevertheless, amazingly done tracks!

I guarantee you are missing out in a real gem if you have not watched it yet. It's only 12 episodes and I wish there was more and pray this does not mean what I think it means... ;O
