It is said that every several hundred years,

the goddess Athena is reincarnated.

And now a new Athena has been born into this world,

but, this time, under a dark prophecy that she will lead mankind to ruin.

The warriors who protected the goddess Athena were known as Knights.

Today, a new generation of Knights control the fate of the world.

They are called the Knights of the Zodiac.

Previously on Saint Seiya...

Cassios!

The brainwashing will hold until Aiolia sees someone die.

This is for you, Cassios!

Wake up, Aiolia!

Pegasus Ryu-Sei-Ken!

Seiya.

Aiolia.

Cassios...

your sacrifice won't be in vain.

Wait, Seiya.

Better?

It doesn't hurt anymore.

Seiya.

Shaun! Long!

You made it!

Seiya.

Your Cosmo blazes far more powerfully than before,

up to the level of a Gold Knight.

What?

But heed Mu's warning.

Gold Knights are still more powerful than you are,

especially Shaka, who guards the House of Virgo.

He's almost a god.

A god?

What do you mean?

And you must remember, do not provoke Shaka to open his eyes.

Huh? Why?

When Shaka opens his eyes,

no one can survive his onslaught.

Thank you, Aiolia.

Ready?

Leo's flame has already burned out.

We have seven hours left.

Sienna...

And we still have to get past seven Gold Knights.

Let's hurry.

You may as well come out.

You knew I was here?

From the beginning...

Scorpio Milo.

The young Bronze Knights may be on the wrong path,

but still, I can't help but admire their feverish spirit.

I'll meet them at my temple.

But as for you...

I'll slay you where you stand, traitor.

Even though the Grand Master uses the forbidden Phantom Demon Attack,

you're still on his side?

That's exactly why I remain loyal.

What?

You don't understand, do you?

The Grand Master was willing to use the attack

because he wanted to ensure your power stayed by his side.

Did you know he wept when you left?

The Grand Master?

It was the first time I'd ever seen him cry.

He selflessly makes the tough decisions that no one else will,

and he wants nothing more than to lead us Knights down the right path.

I can never forgive you for betraying him.

I trust the will of my brother, Aiolos.

I trust what I felt in my heart when I saw Athena!

So you insist on betraying Sanctuary.

We are Knights.

Let's settle this with our fists.

You've never been one to talk things out, Milo.

I couldn't agree more.

Lightning Plasma!

Just what I'd expect from the fist of Leo.

You'd think light-speed punches would leave me no leeway to dodge.

But spreading out the punches prevents any retaliation

It's truly the strongest combination of offense and defense,

but...

this Crimson Scorpion Stinger shoots through the tiniest crack

in my enemy's defense with unmatched accuracy.

There!

Scarlet Needle!

I would expect nothing less from the Crimson Scorpion,

but you still can't defeat me!

Don't you see you're just getting closer to certain death?

This time, you won't escape!

Lightning Bolt!

Hmph.

What?

It seems your fists faltered a little.

Maybe it's an aftereffect of the Phantom Demon Attack.

Scarlet Needle!

Agh!

When evenly matched Gold Knights fight each other,

the slightest slip-up is fatal.

You're going to apologize...

with your death!

-Milo... -

that's enough.

Grand Master?

Why are you stopping me?

This man betrayed you!

Aiolia is sincere to a fault.

I admire that about him.

But, Master...

I feel responsible that his older brother betrayed us and was killed.

All of this has turned to tragedy due to my own weakness.

Grand Master...

We must devote ourselves to the battle that will determine the fate of mankind.

I fear we will not accomplish our mission unless all the Gold Knights unite.

Surely Aiolia will come to understand.

You are truly noble, Grand Master.

Aiolia, the feverish spirit of the Bronze Knights

is nothing compared to your own.

One day, it will light up all of Sanctuary.

I hope the day will come when we can fight alongside each other.

Aldebaran, my friend,

you still seem to have some doubts.

I do.

The Grand Master is a noble soul.

I fear an act like this would be seen as raising our hands against him.

And what if the Grand Master held some secret?

What then?

What are you saying, Mu?

Daedalus and I both trained

under the unwavering hand of Grand Master Sion.

All the more reason why you should show some respect.

That's why I felt something wrong with the Grand Master.

Daedalus felt it too.

It almost makes you wonder if the one in the Grand Master's chamber

is actually my Master Sion.

You're not making sense.

Just wondering, that's all.

I need to be sure.

Seiya, I hope you're all right.

If I could, I would be fighting by your side right now.

Marin.

Huh?

Aiolos?

Marin...

remember your mission.

I could never forget!

Huh?

What--What is this place?

The House of Sagittarius?

Why would it lead me here?

I thought the guardian Knight of the temple was gone.

That's the Gold Sagittarius Knight.

Protect Athena, whatever it takes.

Marin, do you know why you are the Eagle Knight?

No. Why?

An eagle flying in the sky

can spot even a single mouse crawling on the ground.

When you look from on high, you see the big picture.

The big picture?

Of Sanctuary...

gathering under Athena and fighting at her side.

Is this my destiny?

Am I really capable of doing something like that?

You are.

I know, because my younger brother Aiolia chose you.

Then it's settled.

I'll discard myself and my past.

I will become this mask.

Marin! You all right?

Huh? Is it getting close to your bedtime?

I was only kidding.

Don't get all bent out of shape on me.

Listen to me, Genet.

The Bronze Knights bear the full weight of Sanctuary.

It starts here at Star Hill.

Okay...

Know this.

Soon you'll have to pick up my torch.

Huh? What does that mean?

You need to hurry.

Wait!

But you were the one that stopped!

I don't like the look of this.

We need to keep moving.

We're running out of time!

Where are you going, children?

Who are you? Show yourself!

We are servants of Virgo Shaka.

Gold Knight Shaka? Where is he?!

No one is allowed to go beyond this point.

Leave if you value your lives.

We're on our way to the Grand Master to save Athena,

and we'll keep going, even if we have to defeat the Gold Virgo Knight,

Hah! Mere Bronze Knights?

Such impudence.

Impudent, but interesting.

It's been many years since any foolish young Knights dared to come here.

We simply cannot let them through.

We'll test whether you're worthy to see the Gold Virgo Knight,

and if you fail...

You will die.

Don't let your guard down.

First I will test your strength.

Show me your skills.

Okay, then.

One Ryu-Sei-Ken will take care of you bags of bones!

I'll end this right now with my Lúshan Shenglóng bà!

Guys, seriously?

Take this!

Pegasus Ryu-Sei-Ken!

Intangible enemies are no match for my most forceful attack.

Lúshan Shenglóng bà!

Nicely done.

Wait. Look!

What?

Nebula Chain!

These skulls are already dead.

Attacking is not gonna work.

It'll work...

if I do it again and again!

Pegasus Ryu-Sei-Ken!

How 'bout that?!

Save your energy, Seiya.

Damn it!

Huh?

Nebula Chain!

Uh...

You're right, Shaun. This isn't working.

They recover fast.

This could take forever.

There's no way out.

Jump to that rock!

What do we do now?

-Leave them to me. -Huh?

Nebula Chain!

Yes! I'll hold them here.

Now go!

-But, Shaun-- -Don't worry about me!

I'll catch up.

Think of Athena.

For Athena!

We'll be waiting for you up ahead!

Let's do this.

Impressive...

but it's over now!

A pity.

Such a pointless effort.

I got tired of waiting.

Aw, great.

What are you going to test this time?

Next I will test your hearts.

What the hell does that mean?!

Simple.

Move only forward.

"Move only forward"?

The path is too narrow,

so move aside, or we're going through you.

-What? -

Damn it!

Now what?

The Skull Knight said to move only forward.

This has to be a trick.

Even if it is, the fire is too thick.

We'd be burned to a crisp even with our armor.

Are hearts are being tested.

Long!

We have to cast ourselves forward and trust fate.

No! Long!

What are you thinking?!

I'll scatter this fire, no matter how strong it is.

I strike hard with Lúshan Shenglóng bà...

but I strike through...

with Lúshan Soaring Dragon!

Seiya, now's your chance!

-Run! -But, Long--

Think of Athena!

For Athena!

You're determined,

but that's completely meaningless.

I thought you would be the first to die.

Where are you? Come out!

Impressive.

One Bronze Knight has survived.

You amuse me.

Our battle is not a show for your amusement!

Hah!

I'm going to make you regret what you did to my friends!
