The movie is really fast-paced and in the end the story doesn't make much sense.
But now that I think about it, when was the last time Toei made something good?īut let's get to the point, this movie isn't really faithful to the original story.Īs expected from a 90-minutes movie, it skips a lot of content (only 5 fights against the gold saints), and needs to adds some bullshit to tie it together.

But, in the end, its an 'original' story that can't explain itself and feels too rushed.Īs a huge fan of the original series of Saint Seiya, I was really expecting something incredible before watching it. I would love to see this universe of Saint Seiya in another format like a CG series, even with lower production value. But its pretty clear you can't tell a story like this in one hour and half, and the move suffers from its stupidly fast peace. Ambient and movement sounds were very good and matched what we consider an AAA production.īeing honest, I don't think this movie was bad. The same can be said about the sounds effects. Unfortunately, the fights are really short because the movie doesn't have time and the story needs to go on. I received this all with a positive reaction. They changed visuals for a lot of characters, Milo even changing gender. The first appearance of Aiolia created an epic atmosphere. Overall, visually speaking, the battles were very well done. The movie's style is a mix of Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts, with heavy anime influence, specially in humor scenes. Milo, who was one of the best re-imagined characters, suffered with little screen time. With the exception of Aldebaran, Aiolia and Death Mask, they couldn't look more like coadjutors. settles a new universe in Saint Seiya franchise, it can't explain itself without relying on fan's knowledge.ĭue do the movie format, most of the Gold Saints have no personality at all. Lot of concepts are left open because the movie doesn't have time to explain them to you. The problem is, Saint Seiya: Legend of Sanctuary has a big flaw in its concept: you can't fit this Arc in a single movie, no matter how hard you try. So, I'll consider it as an original work for the most part in this review, as I don't like taking something as a bad thing just because it isn't the same as the old one. It uses the Zodiac Temples Arc as a base to its plot. This movie is a re-imagination of basic Saint Seiya concepts.
