I am a die hard fan of the original Saint Seiya(Saints Netflix, not Knights!), but I didn't come in expecting much from this show. However, Netflix somehow managed to not even meet my subpar standard, how that is possible I have no clue. My hypest moment during this was the first time I hard the opening, happy that they at least kept their opening similar to the original.
The story has a few changes from the original run like the original 5 not being orphans that were trained to become saints at a early age and for some reason they change Shun to a girl named Shaun and Siryu to Long(wtf) but there are no huge changes. However instead of being orphans who were trained from a young age to be protectors of the next Athena, it's turned into the most generic of 80's cartoon cliches.
The pacing is terrible, the voice acting is hammed in, I mean I got the best enjoyment out of a manhole! The nicest thing I have to say about Netflix's Saint Seiya is that it looks better than that crappy movie, a feat no one should be proud of. Watching this has made me rethink just how bad Power Rangers Megaforce is, or for my anime fans The Wisemans Grandson, because they actually tried to deliver a show.
All in all, 6 episodes, all rushed, all boring except for my homie the Manhole Saint. The only reason this is getting a star is cause I'm required to, the rating is this will make you look at Boku no Pico as an actual show with a deep storyline, enough said. Think of something you hated watching, it's better than this.
score 1/10
