Good stuff! Probably the best of the Knights of the Zodiac movies. It's crazy seeing Apollo return, he's like Broly in this sense. Anyways, I really enjoyed the settings and the music here, and I couldn't help but notice that they used some sound effects which were probably in the same sound library that the folks at Valve used when making Half-Life 2 (which also came out in 2004) Either way, it's interesting how Saint Seiya is textually about greek mythology and the relationship between mankind and gods, but on a subtextual level it's a lot closer to a Samurai story about the Bushido code andwhen must one obey or disobey their master, and what is it that differenciates the master and the serf. It's fascinating. Knights of the Zodiac has these elements to it that really make it stand out from shonen manga from the same time
