Saint Seiya Brave Soldiers - GR Review

As if the stars couldn't anticipate this return!

Saint Seiya was, in my world, never one of the "big" anime franchise players. It never reached the heights of the Dragonball variations or earned the genuine affection of Sailor Moon, but all of the hallmarks of a great anime are there. Incomprehensible storyline? Check. Too many characters to keep track of? Check. People constantly dying (or seemingly dying) only to be magically resurrected to keep the story going? Oh, just give me the damn marker already. I'll just keep checking off boxes.

Saint Seiya: Brave Warriors consists of three different storylines that all involve the main cast—Seiya, the other guys, the one I think is a fella but sounds like a lady and wears pink armor—saving Athena from all kinds of troublesome situations involving other Saints. There are multiple different classes of the Saints, and Seiya and his friends are all from the Bronze tier (which is odd that the Goddess of Wisdom would rely on the weakest warriors under her command to save her) battling the bastardry of the Gold and God-level generals.
