Synopsis
Every time evil invades the world, the Knights of the Zodiac appear to fight it, guided by the goddess Athena, as since ancient times. This happens again and the person in charge of dealing with it will be Seiya, a young Japanese orphan who is sent to Greece to become a bronze knight. Once back in Japan he will be reunited with his childhood friends who have also become knights after training for years. Now they will compete among themselves to see who will wear the gold armor of Sagittarius. But this will not be possible, once it is stolen by order of the Patriarch of the Sanctuary in Greece, who has gone over to the side of evil. Then, the knights must unite to defend humanity and protect the reincarnation of the goddess Athena, the young Saori Kido.
