The second season of Saint Seiya Lost Canvas just finished and I believe it's high time I took both series into consideration and shared my thoughts about them. Forgive me for collapsing the two into a single entity, but once the whole show is completed most reviewers will actually do the same.

For starters, it's worth mentioning, that although the series has been up as an OVA for more than 2 years now, we are still only half-way through. This is because at the time the first episode was aired, the manga was still ongoing and only recently came to a spectacular end (at least for ...

Is my first review, english is not my first language, don´t be harsh XDDD.
SS Lost Canvas, is like a dreamed SHONEN adaptation, nice animation, a real war, no plotkai. Shonen series should imitate lost canvas

Im a classic Saint Seiya fan, but I consider Lost Canvas as the superior one.

Now, first I will introduce people about saint seiya:

This anime tells the story of the previous Holy War, taking place in the 18th century, 250 years before the original series, in the Saint Seiya universe. The story centers on the relation between Tenma, the Pegasus Saint and his beloved friends, Alone, who eventually becomes his greatest enemy, ...

In this installment, picking up from where the last series leaves off, there is more at stake, more danger, and it gets progressively darker but yet exciting at the same time. Though Tenma is officially the main character, the 3 acts that this story centers more around 3 gold saints.

The 3 gold saints are Manigoldo, the Cancer saint, El Cid, the Capricorn saint, and Sisyphus, the Sagitaurrius saint. And even though their respective original series counterparts didn’t really have much screen time as lets say Saga, Mwu, or Milo did, these characters do a whole lot and demonstrate how fucking bad ass they are. ...

I don't get why people voted so high for this anime...

The characters are bleak, at best, as well as the story. Stuff usually just...Happens, with like a brief explanation or 5 seconds of informing the viewer that it just happens, I guess?

It seemed interesting at first, with Hades + Athena's revival, but then the show just skips 2 years...Right off the bat? Now, I've seen this being done in Naruto, Fairy Tail, One Piece (the big 3) because, well, they have A LOT of episodes and time to explain characters/plots, etc., and they can (maybe) afford it (tho I still think it's one of the ...

Continuation of the first season, unfortunately without a third, so far.

As for the first 13 episodes, even in these there will be a high graphic quality, great characters and clashes (perhaps even better than the first part), between epic and dramatic drama of the Holy War of Lost Canvas, against the king of the underworld.

STORY: 10

As mentioned before, there is the continuation of the war, which will see some very important clashes, namely those against the twin gods, Hypnos and Thanathos, two bastions of Hades' army.

I don't go into details to avoid spoilers, but the development is epic, it deserves.

It's a decent anime, since the original Saint Seiya its not that good, we can see that Lost Canvas as the main animation of the series.

The story it is like need to be, Athena VS Hades, saints vs specters, and all the fight to protect the planet Earth.

The characters all pretty much have the same personality, the saints are good, and the specters are evil, i don't liked the characters, the protagonist. But there excessions, like Manigold was a really good character and that specter who fight with taurus, they are really excessions in that simple based good and evil personality.
And there is too much ...

Possa ser que pareça fanboysisse mas essa serie diferente de ômega é realmente maravilhosa pode parecer parecido com a serie original mas apesar disso ela continua a ter toques chamativos e diferentes, posso estar exagerando mas essa serie pode até competir com a série original, e oque me deixa perplexo a arte dela e melhor que ambas as séries tanto a original quanto a mais recente como o ômega e soul of gold mas oque destaca com certeza é a trilha sonora que realmente é uma das melhores que já ouvi além da dublagem ser bastante boa e combinar com a maioria dos personagens, apesar ...

Preliminary (8/13 eps)

This review is for both season 1 and 2 of Lost Canvas. I watched about eight episodes of the second season so it is not a complete review, but comprehensive enough where I feel I can give my thoughts.

Season 1 and 2 are very similar to how they are executed. Saint Seiya is an extremely efficient anime. Meaning, no second is wasted and every episode has a purpose. Everything is methodically put well together, and its clear they produced this well. I just had a hard time enjoying it, although I cant rate this lower than an "8" because it is technically "good" (art, ...

This anime is so freaking good. I watched the entire Saint Seiya series plus the movies. I love this prequel. Shiori Teshirogi did an amazing job in creating the characters and story. I really want this anime to get a third season because it is brutally underrated. More people should know about Saint Seiya in general but sadly it isn't big in the West. If you're interested in starting Saint Seiya, I really recommend The Lost Canvas because it's short and does a fantastic job in explaining the gist of the holy wars. 10/10! PS. My favorite characters are Alone, Tenma, Albafica, Sisyphus, and Manigoldo!

General: (7.35 / 10)

The truth was very high expectations with this adaptation for the seriousness that this work took in what could be seen from the first installment of Lost Canvas and it keeps having those positive points such as animation and history but I feel that unfortunately under a step in when it comes to characters and overall enjoyment.
Now with this brief introduction let's take a closer look ...

Story: (7/10)

We continue with the journey of Tenma and company in search of the castle of Hades to stop the holy war, while the golden saints are the true protagonists of the ...
