This is my favorite anime of all TIMES!  it is one of the best in japan when it was out! and it has the most detailed BANDAI toys ever created in my opinion..


This anime is all about Greek Mythology.. Theres the Knights or (saints) In japan.. (the guys with ARMOR)  every single one of this armor represents a REAL LIFE constellation in our gallaxy. As you know theres a pegasus constellation. So in the anime theres a guy named "seiya" which uses the Pegasus Cloth (or armor).  The main plot is to protect the goddess Athena! which the Knights are supposed to protect in times of chaos.   As I said the series is all Greek Mythology in every single way. So the knights most of the time have to fights Gods, such as Poseidon and the God from the Nord Mythology as well. Then fun part is that these Gods have (Knights/Saints) that protects them as well! just like Athena is protected by her OWN group of Knights.. So whenever they fight is not easy because BEFORE they can get to the GOD that is causing problems around the planet they have to fight the God / Goddess ' knights first! If you guys want to watch a good anime watch this. You won't regret it! The main characters are 5 BRONZE saints which are entitle to protect the goddess. This 5 saints are "Pegasus, Dragon, Cygnus, Andromeda and the Phoenix!

Theres 3 kind of Knights/saints...

Bronze Saints - low class saints
Silver Saints - Middle class saints
Gold Saints - Top Tier / God like Saints.  (this guy wear GOLD armor) and they represent the 12 zodiacal signs! from aries to Pisces.  


Wee fans loved the Gold Saints the most.. Why? they are the strongest of them all and they represent a Zodiacal sign as well. Which all of us have logically. And they really worked the Gold Saints the most for fans to like them a lot. A fan would know why.


The 5 main characters! you can easily see who they are by looking at their armor which represents a constellation!


ALL the bronze Saints/Knights:


Pegasus - Seiya VS Gold Saint "LEO"! - Aioria
