Saint Seiya

Endless fighting, Each Character has uniqe zanpakuto/cloth, Similar approach on story, Fillers all over the place. Captains=Gold Saints Saint Seiya inspired Tite Kubo into being a mangaka. MUST watch for any Bleach fan. 

Both have cinematic fights and an epic cast with a sub-theme of self sacrifice. 

both tales about bishonens and pure manliness 

I can't believe it, dudes. They both so similar! Bankais, captains and like them saints have diffirent cloths with diffirent powers. (well some times they share one element) It's like a Bleach 20 years ago! I didn't seen anything so similar (and i watched Beelzebub), you should definitely check this out! 

you will realize that bleach's style is a "rehearse" attempt for saint seiya 

Saint Seiya "created" Bleach. Kubo is a fan of series so if you love bleach, you will love a True classic Saint Seiya too!  

Bleach is pretty much a spiritual successor to Saint Seiya. It has a similar arc structure. There are the Gold Saints which are the equivalent to the Captains. They have similarities with the main antagonist being similar be it powers and the plottwist. The Hades Arc which are adapted as OVA's are similar to Bleach's thousand year blood war Arc. If you like Bleach, there is a high chance you like Saint Seiya. 

both DBZ and Saint seiya are the best and most popular shounen anime of the 90's. If you haven't seen it yet, you can't miss this jewel. Both Train the Chi/ki/cosmos (spiritual energy) and the battles are epic, Saint seiya is a little more balanced and emotional/passionate so you'll find it similar to the great Gohan SS2/Cell battles :) 

Dragn Ball Z and Saint Seiya, both true legendary anime series. Both series involves fights, special skills and techniques, and based in an specific culture (Dragon Ball was originally based in chinese culture, Saint Seiya was based in greek culture). Both series talks about an orphan boy who trains himself and fights to become in the strongest warrior (Goku and Seiya). In both series, the main character becomes friends with his opponents (Goku becomes friends with Piccolo and Vegeta, Seiya becomes friends with Shiryu and Ikki). In both series we can see an special kind of heroes (Saiyans and Saints). These Warriors can become in a higher class of warriors (Super Saiyans and Gold Saints). Both unmissable anime legends. read more 

- Both are shonens from the same decade (80's-90's) that have a close style of fights and a lot of characters. - The plot gravitates around the fights. - The soundtrack is somewhat similar. 

both are pretty long, arduous to watch, and unite together along with King of Fighters to create the holy triumvirate of central/south american otaku culture 

Both series were created in the 80's and share the epicness of the 80's: over the top action, violent scenes, epic fights, the power of love and friendship, overpowered characters and manly tears (yes, Saint Seiya IS manly in its way).  

Battle shounen from the '80s with muscular warriors doing battle using martial arts tied to stars and/or constellations. There is a big focus on fate, destiny, and inheriting them from a previous generation. The fights follow a similar pattern involving punch-barrages, a life-aura effect, and lines like “now I’ll show you my ultimate technique”. 

Saint Seiya is not very similar to Hokuto, but the last arc of Hokuto no Ken when the Goshasei protect Yuria, we can see that they are very similar, both history, plot, powers and characters (Juuza = Shaka, etc.),Etc. 

These series are both considered classics and are from the same time period (late 80's early 90's) both also come from weekly shonen jump. Possibly due to both containing a lot of 80's anime common stylistic choices and music/OSTs ; watching both these in the modern day, they give me very similar vibes! I draw a lot of parallels between Seiya himself and Yusuke. Both young, hot headed and tough Japanese boys who's tenacity and combat prowess brings them to the forefront of a larger than life conflict. 

Classic shounen anime with quite similar artstyle. Both are long running series focused on action with the fights taking a long time. They follow the usual battle shounen tropes such as tournaments, but to be fair, these were the anime that helped with setting the tropes rather than copying them. The protagonists are also kinda similar, but that's to be expected. 

If you like Epic battles, you can't go wrong with another of the most popular anime ever: saint seiya Naruto (specially the saga where they have to rescue Sasuke) was heavily influenced by the great 1 vs 1 fights of saint seiya, you will begin to notice the cool similarities right way! 

Both anime teem with combats in which fighters rely on some inner strength that grows subsequently as the story develops. In Naruto, it is Chakra, while in Saint Seiya, it is Cosmos... Both anime do tackle similar themes such as: loyalty and brotherhood. 

Both series have a team of warriors wearing suitable battle attire. Though Saint Seiya is Shonen and Sailor Moon is Shojo, both series can be appreciated by both genders, as their story and setting, albeit different, have similarities: cosmo/galaxy setting, teamwork spirit, protecting the ones they care and love, fighting for a true cause (protecting the world, etc,), battle posing, unique attack moves for each character, and so on. 

Basically new Manga of Saint Seiya "Next Dimensions" but with better story, characters development. This is story before original Saint Seiya. If you love Saint Seiya classic, trust me this is just "BOMB". 

The story and the characters strongly recall Saint Seiya, by the same author. 

The characters & beyblades on Metal Fight Beyblade series are mostly inspirated from Saint Seiya. Could be said that Metal Fight Beyblade is the newer version of Saint Seiya. 

Both series share the same premise: a group of warriors have to protect a girl of divine nature. In Saint Seiya those warriors are called "saints", who figh according to the occidental constellations, as they serve the incarnation of the goddess Athena, Saori. In Fushigi Yuugi, they are called "seishis", fighting by the chinese constellations, in order to protect Miaka, god Suzaku's proxy. While Saint Seiya focuses on the battles themselves, Fushigi Yuugi's attention is driven more to the characters drama. All have epic fights and memorable characters, who often have to fight another deities warriors. However, they may contain some disturbing scenes as well. 

Saint Seiya and Ginga have many of the similar elements, even though the plot is quite different. If you like in Ginga how the protagonist slowly grows up from a puppy to a mature leader, then you will also like Saint Seiya, where the story also leads the viewers through the growing up of the protagonists from mere pupils to legendary warriors. Furthermore the action is also pretty similar in them, especially the fact that even if they get to the ground, they never give up the fight. The story is mostly serious, just like in Ginga, but it also contains some comical elements, which are more noticeable around the beginning. read more
