Netflix's reboot of Saint Seiya, created in collaboration with Toei Animation, directed by Yoshiharu Ashino (who previously directed Tweeny Witches, Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox, and Cross Ange) and produced by Avengers Assemble's Eugene Son. This show was the series' second foray into all CGI animation after Saint Seiya: Legend of Sanctuary. The six episodes were released in July/August 2019 as Part 1, with the second six released on January 23, 2020, as Part 2. The series is a loose retelling of the events of the manga, featuring an original villain.Every few centuries, the Gods are reincarnated onto Earth and fight over who shall have control over the planet. Amongst them is Athena, a goddess who works to defend mankind. Alongside her are her Knights, legendary warriors who can wield the power of the cosmos in order to aid Athena in her quest.The Knights are led by the organization Sanctuary, who are ordinarily allied with Athena, but this incarnation of Athena was born with a prophecy that she would fail and bring about humanity's destruction. There is also Vander Guraad, a man who wants to liberate humankind from the will of the gods by using technology to destroy them and any Knights who stand against him.In June 2022, a sequel titled Saint Seiya: Knights of the Zodiac – Battle for Sanctuary was announced by Crunchyroll. | |

Wrong Genre Savvy: Seiya points he expected Shaun was meaner and tougher than the others, since she's the only girl around. Shaun subverts that, showing she's actually kind and polite, if laidback. She's not behind the boys in terms of power, though - she just prefers to fight defensively. | |

Long-Lost Relative | |
| Saint Seiya: Knights of the Zodiac / int_455f6a91 | comment |
Long-Lost Relative: Just like in the original series, Seiya was separated from his sister at a young age and he hopes he can find her by fighting for Athena. This time she was explicitly rescued by a Gold Saint because Sanctuary was abducting children who displayed signs of Cosmo. Since Seiya hadn't awakened his powers yet, he was left behind. In the second season it's implied that Seiya's mentor Marin may be his sister, but if she is, she doesn't remember it herself. Andromeda Shaun believed that her brother Nero died while training. Turns out he survived and acquired the Phoenix armor. Bad news is, he's now full using The Power of Hate, working with Guraad and more than willing to kill his "weakling" sister. | |

Adaptation Distillation | |
| Saint Seiya: Knights of the Zodiac / int_5a40d6a | comment |
Adaptation Distillation: Almost all the characters keep their main traits and motivations in comparison to the original, if with some changes. For example, Shaina, whose part of her character was all about her mask hiding her true side, lost this peculiarity since the rule about female saints hiding their faces with masks apparently doesn't exist in this version or it's optional, like in Marin's case. | |

Casting Gag | |
| Saint Seiya: Knights of the Zodiac / int_6ec4232f | comment |
Casting Gag: Hilariously enough, the original English release brings back quite a few voice actors from the ADV dub of the TV series, albeit in different roles. Blake Shepard who voiced Peacock Shiva (an anime-only character who was one of Shaka's disciples) now takes a main role as Dragon Long. John Swasey, who voiced Hydra Ichi, now voices Libra Dohko. Cameron Bautsch, who voiced Pegasus Seiya as a child, provides the voice for Wolf Nachi. John Gremillion who originally voiced another anime-only character, Gigas, now plays Aries Mu. Kira Vincent-Davis (the original voice of Shaina) voices Kiki. Jay Hickman (the original voice of Shiryu) provides the voice of a security manhole robot and most hilariously, Cancer Deathmask. | |

Villain Has a Point | |
| Saint Seiya: Knights of the Zodiac / int_723be11b | comment |
Villain Has a Point: Given what we've seen in plenty Saint Seiya productions, Vander is right about humanity constantly being at the whims of Jerkass Gods and that they could be better off without them. The issue here is that he's willing to murder a girl who he once saw as a daughter to save the world. Who is also, coincidentally, logically the one most likely to save the world, due to being the incarnation of the goddess who has done so habitually. And is the only non-Jerkass God in the setting. | |

You Can't Fight Fate: The schism in Sanctuary is caused by two different attempts to avert this - those who believe that Athena's destiny to doom humanity can be averted by killing her before she gets the chance, and those who believe that it can be averted by supporting her so that she does not fail in her efforts to protect it. | |

In this version, their Powered Armor makes them more dangerous and durable than some of the Silver Saints and they can absorb cosmo attacks. | |

| Saint Seiya: Knights of the Zodiac / int_8204a6ad | comment |
The Magic Versus Technology War: Vander Guraad's army is mostly composed of lots of people with assault rifles, gunships (Apaches, for the most part) and the Black Saints vs. the Bronze Saints, with their Cosmo and armors. The Bronze Saints do some pretty impressive amount of damage single-handedly. And they are the weakest tier of Saint Power Levels, and are actively trying to avoid killing any of Guraad's soldiers, a sentiment said soldiers do not reciprocate. | |

| Saint Seiya: Knights of the Zodiac / int_b552b24 | comment |
Truer to the Text: Subverted. While this series changes a lot from the source material, certain story beats from the manga that were changed or not adapted in the original anime have been restored: Hyoga/Magnus is sent by the Sanctuary to kill the Bronze Saints, which was Adapted Out in the original anime (this is expanded with him having also been sent to murder Athena herself), and has his snarky and arrogant personality back. Seiya's fight with Ikki/Nero is more like in the manga: it takes place in a cave, Seiya fights without his Cloth, and repels Ikki/Nero's strongest attack with one hand before defeating him (the original anime changed it to taking place outdoors, Seiya being fully suited up, and him blocking Phoenix's attack with Shiryu's shield instead). Phoenix's Phantom Fist vision is a flashback to his training (instead of being moved to a later episode) and has his encounter with Shaka restored (this had not been shown in the original anime because the Shaka encounter story was only published afterwards and inserted into the Black Saints arc in collected editions). Misty is the one who attempts to kill the Bronze Saints after Ikki/Nero is defeated, instead of Canon Foreigner Filler Villain Docrates. Mu observes the Bronze Saints from afar during their fights against Ikki/Nero and the first wave of Silver Saints, helping them by creating an illusion of their dead bodies (over the bodies of the Black Saints) to fake their deaths. This had been Adapted Out in the original anime. The fights against the Silver Saints play out more like in the manga, although some of them are Adapted Out. Since the Crystal Saint was not adapted, Aquarius Camus is Hyoga's teacher as he was originally. | |

Phoenix Nero's scar on his forehead is more obviously visible than his Ikki counterpart's, which bordered on Informed Attribute | |

Lighter and Softer | |
| Saint Seiya: Knights of the Zodiac / int_ce6555f0 | comment |
Lighter and Softer: The violence from this series is much, much less gory than the one from the original manga and anime (Case in point: In this version of the story, Seiya doesn't cut Cassius ear.) | |

Adaptational Wimp | |
| Saint Seiya: Knights of the Zodiac / int_d500b978 | comment |
Adaptational Wimp: In the original manga/anime, Bear Geki actually causes some trouble to Seiya during their fight. Here, Seiya only needs a couple of seconds to defeat him. Perseus Algol is one of the strongest Silver Saints in the manga. In this version, despite Nero hyping Algol, Long managed to defeat him fairy easily after destroying the Medusa Shield. | |

Dub Name Change | |
| Saint Seiya: Knights of the Zodiac / int_e2c4b927 | comment |
Dub Name Change: By the director's admission, he found baffling that despite coming from multiple backgrounds the characters have Japanese names. Seiya is in the minority for having his original name and being Japanese. Other dubs, like in France, Latin America or Japan avert this where everyone kept their original names. Ikki is named Nero. Not only is Shun a girl but she's named Shaun. Saori is Sienna, like in the Viz manga and the Knights of the Zodiac adaptation. Hyoga is named Magnus. Shiryu is named Long. Seika is named Patricia. Mitsumasa is named Alman. Tatsumi is named Mylock. | |
