A Holy War, from ancient mythology, where the Goddess Athena and Hades have fought against each other while defending the earth repeatedly over the span of 200 years. The story takes place in 18th century Europe, 243 years prior to the original "Saint Seiya" Three small children, Tenma, Alone, and Sasha have all shared a very happy childhood together. Tenma who is quite aggressive but upstanding has moved to Sanctuary to become a saint. It is there that he is reunited with Sasha who is the sister of Alone and leans that she is the reincarnation of Goddess Athena. Alone who is kind, gentle and loves painting was chosen for the body of enemy King Hades. Tenma eventually becomes a saint of Pegasus and engages in a fierce battle with his best friend Alone, the King of Hades. Pegasus Tenma, King Hades, and the Goddess Athena and through the twist of their 3 fates merge together which unfolds a prologue to the original Saint Seiya.

Recommendations

In both, the two main guys are enemies that were childhood best friends. The goal is the same: two sides, where the bad guy wishes the world destruction and the end of humanity, while the good guy wishes not just to save the world, but save his (current enemie) best friend. Also in both the "Bad guy" used to be a very gentle and kind person but it was possessed by evil, and tries to defeat his best friend. Also in both animes, the bad guy has a sister that was also a best friend of the guy, and that possesses powers.
Both have constelations based characters,and the main one is the Pegasus one,so are Ginga and Tenma(and original series Seiya)personalities alike.
