If you're a true fan of Saint Seiya ... maybe you must not see this anime... This anime starts with a short battle between Seiya, the new Sagitarius Saint and Mars and when you hope to see the new power of the Saint they make a cut and put Kouga... the most stupid Saint in all the franchise. All scenes with Kouga in the screen are unbearable. Kouga pass all the time talking about save Athena that's not bad if you do not looks like his lover... It's okay if they want a new Pegasus Saint... but the character itself is hateful. Talking about the pegasus saint... theCloth it's like latex or something like that. Do not look like metal... they look like cloth, like cotton or silk. The plot is not better... in special the "Tournament Part" or the part of the Zodiac Temples... The "Zodiac Temples" are a copy from the same battle in the original manga but worse. There are Gold Saints that do not respect the rules and have the gold armor... The Taurus Saint is a person who loves kill people to hear how your bones break... the Aquarius Saint let the "evil" curse his armor to be stronger... the Capricorn Saint is an Old Guy who in a moment becames Broly and fuck all the logic. Finally the "Piscis Saint" who is like Gilgamesh from Fate/Stay Night... but less cool than Gilgamesh, of course. This "arc" finish with Seiya letting Kouga using the Sagitarius Cloth... for plot reasons, to kill a God who appears from the nothing. The Last Arc is the "Pallas Arc" in this Arc some cloths return to a form more like the Original Manga... but with gems, because they do not want to lose this magical girl anime touch... All the battles in this arc are trash until they got to the Pallas Castle... the old Bronze Saints of Saint Seiya reappears to fight... In the end Seiya upgrade his Cloth and a new enemy appears from nothing, again... fuck Seiya, broken his new armor in seconds, something very strange if you saw another Saint Seiya series before... And Kouga saves the day talking... yes, talking... in a fucking second, the enemy becames his friend and say farewell... Please, do not watch this anime if you don't want suffer.

ENGLISH REVIEW AFTER PORTUGUESE Bom, Saint Seiya não é um anime muito bom! Mas ele foi um clássico marcante para os antigos. Saint Seiya Ômega comete muitos erros de seu antecessor, entre eles estão: - Haruto: A ideia de criar um cavaleiro ninja, não é ruim, só que ele foi mal produzido. Haruto! Exatamente como você leu! Ele te lembra algum nome? Claro que lembra, Naruto! E de ninja o que eu vi nele foi o mais clichê possível. - Repetimento De Ataques: Saint Seiya sempre teve isso, mas de tanto ver isso acabamos relevando. Mas quando a luta se baseia em uso de poderes! SEPREPAREM PARA UMA CHUVA DE HATE! - Elementos: Por que colocar elementos, se vão ser apenas: Fogo, Aguá, Terra, Vento, Luz e Trevas! O Hyoga e o Shun entra aonde nessa história???? Desnecessário! - Armaduras: Muitas armaduras tem um desing muito fraco! E a ideia de as Urnas terem sido trocadas por cristais, foi muito mais desnecessário do que os elementos! As urnas mostravam que os cavaleiros, além de terem missões, eles tinham que carregar o peso que iriam usar nas batalhas, isso mostra a determinação de cada personagem. Na segunda temporada elas voltam! GRAÇAS A DEUS! A história tem seus altos e baixos, ela começa mais ou menos, ela fica boazinha, ela cai e levanta de novo como o próprio Seiya haha! Mas, ela é boa. Considerações Finais: O anime não é um completo lixo, tem seus erros, a maioria poderia ter sido consertada por Masame Kurumada. A melhor parte do anime, com certeza é o inicio até o final das doze casas, mesmo que tenham cavaleiros de ouro mal desenvolvidos! Fim! :D PS: This review was made by a Brazilian! AQUI É BRASIL!!!! English Version: Well, Saint Seiya is not a very good anime! But it was a striking classic for the ancients. Saint Seiya Omega makes many mistakes from its predecessor, among them: - Haruto: The idea of creating a ninja knight is not a bad thing, just that he was poorly produced. Haruto! Just as you read it! Does he remind you of any names? Of course you remember, Naruto! And from ninja what I saw in him was as cliché as possible. - Repetition of Attacks: Saint Seiya always had this, but from seeing it so much we ended up. But when the fight is based on using powers! GET READY FOR A HATE RAIN! - Elements: Why put elements, if only: Fire, Water, Earth, Wind, Light and Darkness! Where's Hyoga and Shun enter this story ???? Not necessary! - Armor: Many armor has a very weak design! And the idea that the ballot boxes were swapped for crystals was far more unnecessary than the elements! The ballot boxes showed that the knights, besides having missions, had to carry the weight they would use in battles, this shows the determination of each character. In season two they come back! THANK GOD! The story has its ups and downs, it starts more or less, she gets good, she falls and gets up again like Seiya himself haha! But, she's good. Final Thoughts: The anime is not a complete rubbish, it has its mistakes, most could have been fixed by Masame Kurumada. The best part of the anime, of course, is the beginning to the end of the twelve houses, even if they have poorly developed gold knights! End! : D PS: This review was made by a Brazilian! HERE IS BRAZIL!!!!

Saint Seiya Omega is an alternative continuation to the original Saint Seiya anime about 15 years since the defeat of Hades, lord of the underworld. Seiya inherited the Sagittarius Gold Cloth and the show starts off immediately with a new antagonist trying to fight Athena. Both Seiya and Mars disappear for several years until the baby Athena was alongside with grew. Mars would return kidnapping Athena and the new protagonist's Koga has the goal to stop Mars and get Athena back. Story The structure of the show is almost similar to the original. Some old Saints who fought Mars had their body's corrupted and can't seriously participate in battlewhich include Shaina and the legendary Saints aka. the main characters from the previous series. Mars' goal is to use Athena's power to create a new earth and take over as the god who rules over the Saints. Many of the mightiest Saints work under him which can be considered questionable for old fans, but since he has the power of Athena, I guess that kinda excuses it. Even some Gold Saints are on his side. Koga and his comrades have to beat Mars' henchmen which include 11 of the 12 Gold Saints to reach Mars and free Athena. It takes quiet a while to get there but overall its a pretty interesting arc. The final arc is about Athena's little sister appearing alongside a curse that drains the life force of Athena. Pallas' army have time manipulators that kinda make them difficult to handle. Koga and the others got new clothes from defeating a god in the previous arc giving them a boost in power. The Gold Saints are also in the disposal of Athena and the legendary Saints finally get to fight. It is very exciting to watch especially since some characters get some interesting arcs to flesh them out. The finale was also very bombastic but can be off putting for those who hate power of bond, but in a show like Saint Seiya it seems like a believable thing to happen. Characters Pegasus Koga is starting off as an annoying brat getting forced into training of a Saint and acting all cocky. Eventually he would become more mature. There are some internal conflict inside him regarding to some new elements (pun intended) that were introduced in Omega. In the second arc he would be more like a mentor for Subaru. Subaru is hard to explain without spoiling too much. He is a cocky kid with insane amount of power, but is just a steel saint at the start. A saint using human technology instead of a cloth. His motivation is to become a god but eventually see the value in being a human and respecting the people around him. He also goes to a similar conflict like Koga which makes the relationship between the two that much better. He would also obtain the Equuleus Cloth, the cloth considered the little brother of Pegasus, further hitting home the relationship between Koga and Subaru. Orion Eden is the son of Mars and kinda starts of an antagonist too. He appears to be a discount Ikki at first but his internal turmoil and conflicts regarding his father's decisions drives him forward to seek his truth. Eventually he would lose everything that was important to him. In the second arc he does try to find meaning and participates in the war against Pallas to find that. He acts also as an elder brother to Subaru and encourages him even in situations of being conflicted. Subaru in a sense is similar to Eden. Subaru can't understand some of the stuff going on, while Eden tries to move on from the things he lost. Dragon Ryuho is Shiryu's son and his the new Dragon Bronze Saint. There isn't much to say about him. He appears to be the weakest in characterization despite being the only character related to a legendary Saint. He has important scenes but they aren't much remembered. Aquila Yuna is the female Saint of the group. Probably the strongest in characterization and not backing down regardless how dangerous the situation is. She is shown to have internal struggles which prevent her to move forward at first, but when she knows she is needed, she is the most reliable member of the team. Wolf Haruto seems to be kinda a meme by Toei. A Ninja who became a Saint and mix both into one. It's almost comical especially when he gets into Rock and Roll... since he can manipulate Rocks, it makes it even more weird. Regardless he is the smartest in the group and always looks for intel as well as plans his movement when the situation allows it. Also he is one of the first to awaken seventh sense. Lionet Soma is one of the weakest characters in terms of writing after Ryuho. He had a personal stake in the first arc with Mars' daughter taking the live of his father. Him getting over his thirst for revenge is the only thing that makes him interesting. Mars looks awfully goofy for a Saint Seiya antagonist. He had an interesting backdrop seeing the world is corrupt and wanting to kill Athena for protecting such a world. In of those fights, some weird shit happens and he gains insane amount of power and becomes a god. His defeat was satisfying tho. Pallas had a decent character arc too. It was more her relationship with Titan, her sister and reacting to how the Saints fight that eventually made her interesting. Titan himself is a very respectful antagonist too starting to see his enemies as worthly opponents and even praising them. As previously he looked down on Seiya for failing to kill Pallas when he got the opportunity. Legendary Saints were interesting. Shun is probably the one who was the most active of them. We see him chasing further his goal to solve issues without violence but when pushed he won't pull any punches back. Seiya is matured a lot and is very enjoyable whenever he is on screen. The first arc he would use his iconic moves which Koga learned. In the second arc he would inherit the true moves of the Sagittarius cloth and use them. His final fights were also a spectacle. Hyoga didn't do a lot. He would help Koga to get his confidence back in the first arc. In the second arc he would get to fight the former Aquarius Gold Saint Tokisawa who took the side of Pallas. It's a dream match up to see who would really be worthly the Aquarius Cloth. Shiryu didn't get to do much and I think got the short end of the stick. It is worse when you know he finally wears the Libra Gold Cloth and won't even get a proper fight. Phoenix Ikki would appear and kick ass as always. He was always the big brother under the bronze Saints in the past. And while he doesn't act like an old mentor, his speeches are motivational as always. Gold Saints are probably the weakest from all Gold Saint generation. Seiya is obviously a spectacle as a character. Shiryu didn't get to do much but still was a good mentor type of character for his son. Now to the new ones. Taurus Harbinger started off as a weird candidate for a Gold Cloth wearing person. He likes to humiliate and make his opponents suffer. But in the second arc we see a lot more as he reacts on the damage caused by Pallas' army. It turned him from one of the worst written Taurus Saints to one of the best so far. Aries Kiki is honestly a disappointment. Despite being a Gold Cloth wearer, he still seems to walk behind the other Gold Saints. He did some cool shit but his personality didn't go anywhere. Aquarius Tokisada was introduced as he obtained the cloth without having the seventh sense thus being technically the weakest Gold Saint ever. But his abilities kinda make up for it as he can manipulate the passage of time. Eventually he got tired of being used, and became overconfident in his time powers. Sonja who killed Soma's dad would become the Scorpion Gold Saint. She started off as a strong angatonist who got tainted her hands in blood hoping her family life turns back to how it was before her father changed. The lack of seventh sense made her incapable to master the Scorpion Cloth and dies. Libra Genbu is the Gold Saint that temporary took the Gold Cloth from Shiryu or rather the cloth picked him. He is Shiryu's junior student thus knows how similar techniques. He is encouraging the Bronze Saints and show them with his fights the meaning of being a Saint. The Gemini Saints through your average Gemini sibling arc. They are female this time but its still interesting to see how it goes. The remaining Gold Saints aren't worth talking. Leo will be humiliated by Pisces and that's all to remember him for. Music I think Saint Seiya has great music in general. I enjoyed all the openings so far and really like listening to them again. Art This is a bit of a weird part. Despite being an action based show with death and a sequel to one of the most violent shows, modern censorship really hit it hard. I don't recall a single drop of blood which makes the fights kinda mediocre and less serious. Since anyone can just get up as long as the plot wants. And injuries never feel serious. Colors are pretty and bright, but can be off putting. Enjoyment I didn't mention a few things earlier. One being that suddenly cosmo is categorized by fixed Elements which kinda becomes off putting and ruin what we expected since you will think in your mind what element what character's cloth is fitting now. It is later explained that it happened because of that massive cosmo thingy that turned Mars into a god but before that gets explained, you turn the show off. The action also a mixed back because of censorship and only a few Gold Saints are enjoyable to see. There is also a lot of pointless feeling filler. The character arcs and Seiya were real good highlights of the show. Yuna, Eden, Seiya, Genbu and Harbinger were really good characters. Also the cloth are now in a gem instead of a giant metal box. Except in the next arc when come get upgraded, the metal boxes come back and the characters have to carry them everywhere. And it seems like every male character besides Eden has an older sister complex which is cringy. There are 2 of them. It's really hard to give a proper conclusion. It depends on what you can tolerate. There are plenty of good characters, enjoyable fights and interesting internal conflicts.

I consider myself a somewhat rare breed. an american that like Saint Seiya... some of us are out there, but it's kinda hard to find others when the VAST VAST majority of any videos related to the anime are in spanish, french or any other latin language that isn't english. this series is very big in latin america. a freind of mine often says that its almost a religion in Latin America. but i'm not here to judge them or talk about the wonderful 80s anime. im here to talk about something i never thought i would talk about....Saint Seiya; Omega. oh boy... let's doit. The Story; 5/10 Omega is a continuation of the 80s story if i recall correctly. Seiya (who is now the Sagittarius saint) leaves his legacy to the next generation of Saint who the show now focuses on. im okay with that, to see the next generation of a story can be fine and at times really great....when done right. to my memory, Naruto is the only other anime i know to continue it's story to the next generation in the form of "Boruto", as swell as that is, in my eyes, Boruto is a fat let down, lame new characters, ok plot but the execution sucked imo so...i was rather off put. Saint seiya Omega is no different in my eyes. the story its self isnt very interesting, or original (evil god wants to take earth but some awesome warriors with a good god prevent eveil god from doing so, lose a few good charcters and the end). thats pretty much the same plot as the original 80s anime. because it is. and it's Omegas story as well. if you havent seen a story like this or anything similar, then it's fine. there is a clear motive with reason and there is a foreseeable goal to reach. but again, the 80s anime already did this. and it did it better imo too. Art; 2/10 oh no......oh god no! how???!!!! how can this be??? how can a show made in 2012 look WORSE THAN THE 1986 VERSION???? yeah the color is cleaner, yeah its got that normal resolution but.... the character designs..... they look awful...the Pegasus cloth it's....oh no... the Cloths are always described and designed to look metallic. but these look like theyre made from plastic and nylon... not just the pegasus cloth, but ALL THE CLOTHS LOOK BAD! the Sagittarius cloth...the wings look like they are pointy metal doritos... the cloths and other armor look...eww. the only design that was respectable was the "sagittarius God Cloth" it looks similar to the original aside from some parts lokking bigger like the pauldrons. the wings are significantly improved too. but it doesn't look...godly. not like the ones from Soul of Gold. those designs were clean, sexy, fitting for the gold cloths. i simply do not like the art style. to me, it doesnt scream saint seiya sigh, before i give myself another big headache, what about the animation? surely the animation has improved, the fights are more fluent, and the character work is more refined too right? WRONG!!! a common issue found in saint seiyas fight seens (80s anime and manga included) was how static the fights were, they wouldn't show alot of movement or often never moved position. it was like there feet were glued to the ground. now to be completely fair, animating fight scenes with cloth designs that were elaborate and complex, i can imagine are very very hard and time consuming. i understand and respect that. just look soul of gold, yeah the gold saints and their God cloths were moving fast and and all, but there models barely moved, and i understand that trying to animate designs like Sagittarius, virgo, and taurus for example would be a nightmare to animate, so thats fair. Omega does not get the same pass though. the animation is sloppy alot of the time (somehow worse than the 80s animation which is a feat in of it's self), questionable at some and even decent in a few cases, but the fight scenes are all more static than the 80s counterpart and the animation quality is very inconsistent. now this could be because the team animating it are new, and this is their first go, if so, thats explainable. but, that doesnt excuse the fact that the designs are far more simplistic than other entries for the series. the art, is poor. sound; 7/10 if there is one aspect i can at least say Omega does well, it's the sound. the openings are all very unique and different in their own way. and some of the music in the show is quite enjoyable. compared to the music used in the Asterisk War it's not as thrilling or epic, but it's still nice, but i wouldn't call them memorable. it's a shame i have so little to say for this category, the sound design is fine. its very good. but honestly thats all i can say. characters; 3/10 oh boy... where do i even begin.... ill start with the positives. Seiya, our new and alive sagittarius saint, has matured and grown quite abit since the 80s anime and the hades chapters. we see him now as a careful, confident, inspring, still has a bit of his old personality which i do think is neat and great man the new saints can look up to. some of the new saints are also quite notable, Yuna, one of Kougas friends, has a well laid out backstory and is actually quite endearing to me... yeah. the new Aries Saint Kiki, who was by Mu's side is also well written, following the past aries saints legacy while making one for his own. and Taurus Harbinger is rather interesting. he's kind of a rebel with Athenas saints and is rather more direct and bruttish...well he is a taurus saint after all. now for the bad. Kouga, wether he is Seiyas and Saoris son or not, he is very very bland blonde and boring. always saying he will save athena, only to get his ass handed to him and be saved by the power of love and frienship. really. this is annoying. if the good guys always win, it gets boring, and thats what happens with kouga.let's take Seiya for example. headstrong like kouga is, gets his ass beaten down, hard, really hard. ina pinch, the gold cloth comes to him for a massive power boost. kinda like the super seiyan before the super seiyan. and when things got really bad, he got the pegasus god cloth in elysion. he took down the 2 minor gods. then he gets capped again by hades. so... seiya has his moments of being an underdog. kouga though.... isnt as umm...gifted, Kouga doesnt get a gold cloth or a god cloth to aid him, i mean, he gets the omega cloth at the very end so ill give him that, but before the omega cloths stuff, he often needed someone else to finish off someone, or the "power of love and friendship". the problem is that we've seen this type of charcter done before but kouga is done worse than many other sadly. Saori Kido, the reincarnation of Athena, the greek goddess of war is not very well written either. she's like Zelda in a way, powerful being who should be able to look our for herself, ends up being a princess needing to be rescued alot. "thank you for your service, seiya, but athena is another castle." there are so many other characters here that i could lay waste upon, but for the interest of time, im not gonna bother. overall, some charcters are somewhat neat, but many others are just not pleasent to think about or deal with. Enjoyment; 3/10 this show had some nice moments but were very far and few between alot of annoying dialogue, bad animation and art style, and a lame ass plot. im very dissapointed.... overall; 3/10 i really wanted to like this show. i really did, i genuinely started optimistic about it, hoping it would be a fantastic adventure like the original 80s anime, but hope that it would differentiate its self in a cool and unique way. but it didnt, this show to me was a continuation reboot with a worse art style, bad writing, and a copy paste story progression. it was very similar to the 80s story and it became very bland and predictable very quick.

Disclaimer: This anime was my introduction into, and probably the extent of my involvement with, the franchise. ✪ Genre: action (gunfights, swordplay), adventure, drama, contemporary fantasy, shounen, superpower ✔ Positive Aspects ✔ ◧ The animation of the anime is the only positive aspect of this series that I could name. Specifically, we witnessed fairly distinct characters using different kinds of bodysuits, majestic structures left and right, in combination with colors that were highly saturated and very vibrant, easily capturing and retaining the viewers' attention.✘ Negative Aspects ✘ ◧ When I am embarking on a new shounen anime journey, I do expect to stumble across some cliches (the protagonist's legendary bravado which is wholly predicated upon his selfless, borderline masochistic, intention to protect his friends, and the world in general; the antagonist's intention to acquire immense physical strength either for the sake of it, or for the liberation of mankind from itself by facilitating its destruction; some protagonists' and/or antagonists' quest towards more strength for some, at best, incomprehensible reasons, at worst, preposterous etc.) but that's quite different from having those cliches deployed in the most cartoonish fashion imaginable. It's as if the creators of this anime were intending to mock the genre itself by releasing a humorless parody based on every single cliche that the former has to offer. ◧ In the sound department nothing really stood out - the same tracks were being regurgitated throughout. ◧ As far as the character development goes, well, there was not really any to speak of. Most of the protagonists' and antagonists' intentions, beliefs, emotions, and thought processes were, to the extent they were made clear, pretty formulaic. ◧ In the action scenes department, nothing much was going on either. A great majority of the time was spent on specific choreographies (with graphics, head titles and all) which accompanied every character's individual combat moves. Another significant part of the time was spent on mundane verbal exchanges between rivals, before, during, and after the fight. And, finally, what was left was spent on repeating this sequence: the protagonist's/protagonists' beatdown and his/her/their display of bravado. ◧ The anime was broken down to (2) seasons, with completely different sets of antagonists, but the unfolding of both plots was characteristically similar in pace. Both seasons 'got into it' rather quickly, introduced us to the characters and antagonists almost immediately, gave us a clear idea of how all this was going to unfold and wasted quite some time with the protagonists simply running around and getting into fights with everyone. Furthermore, I would like to note that the 2nd season was completely unnecessary. If anything, it may have made the anime sillier since the protagonist's social existence, and consequently, his importance to the story, have been severely downgraded. ◧ Conceptually, I can't say that I was much enthusiastic about it. I am uncertain as to whether or not, and if so, to what degree, I may have been negatively predisposed given that I am of Greek ancestry, but, I don't think that the use of Greek mythology was very sensible. At various times throughout I felt that certain aspects of it did not make much sense, and the terminology used was rather idiotic (e.g. 'cosmo', 'cloth stones' many individual combat moves had silly-sounding names, etc.). Also, quite a few structural elements did not make that much sense either (e.g. the relationship between 'cloth stones' and their respective constellations; the origins of existent 'gods' and the conspicuous absence of many others; the earth's persistent attractiveness for the antagonists' plans despite being wildly dissimilar, etc.). Overall: A bundle of shounen anime cliches deployed in the most run-of-the-mill manner possible. If you value your time, do not bother.
