Saint Seiya

why didn't anyone mention that?

I have to get around to watching this.  I always hear nothing but good things about it.

Do you suggest watching the original first?  Haven't there been like 4 different series?

Yu Yu Hakusho & Rurouni Kenshin.

There is like 1 main anime + hades arc and 2 OVA and a new series... it's a bit messy

the main series is like 120 episodes.. and yes you should watch that one first... otherwise you don't know what the f is going on in the others..

ok, then I guess I'll share a more critical perspective

I think it's boring, the epitome of repetitiveness and aged very very badly. I love old anime series like the original Macross TV, Legends of Galactic Heroes, Touch, Ashita no Joe and many more, but Saint Seiya really isn't worth it in my opinion.

So...

I remember reading this thread when it was first around, and tonight I felt like watching a new anime, so I searched and found this thread again. After hearing you two recommend it, I watched the first episode.

And all I have to say is what the f? :P Does the show actually turn interesting, or is it a blatant porno throughout the series?

lololol. It's like that the whole series.

It's a very, very serious show though. It has a story throughout and each character has their own goals and motivations. It just also has a lot of tits throughout.
