TLDR: If you like animes which revolve around animals(especially dogs), where they fight for a just cause in a cruel world, and you can see friendship, humanity, betrayal, lots of character development, and other similar themes, then I recommend this action filled anime to you. But let's dig a bit deeper.
Story:
The storyline is continuous, each episode builds on the previous ones. And because this is a sequel it even builds a lot onto the prequel anime, Ginga Nagareboshi Gin. However, it's not a problem if you haven't seen that one first, because this anime will tell the basic things which you need to know

in order to understand who is who in the story.
It could be said that the plot is pretty simple, there is the Big Bad, and the protagonists have to defeat him to bring peace. At first it might look this simple, but when we see the backstory of the villains, and different problems arises between the protagonists, then the story suddenly doesn't feel very simple at all. Sometimes it even presents situations where one cannot make a right moral decision, but the main character still have to do something. Apart from this we get a deep-dive in the feelings of a few of the protagonists, which results in very touching moments, and makes us understand them even better.
Now as I write all of this, the story might seem dramatic. It is, but of course as in most story even here there is a comic relief, who can always put a smile on the viewers' faces.
There are many fighting scenes in series, and they're all exciting and well made. Sometimes the characters need to use strategy and bluffing to keep their lives, and at other times they die like heroes while giving speeches which are heart-gripping.
The end of the story is unarguably beautiful and satisfying, we get a nice happy ending, even if not everything is happy. The final battle was a bit rushed, and was altered in a weird way, but it's kind of understandable, and not that bad.
Art:
This aspect is the one which is the most controversial among fans. It's undeniable, there are badly animated scenes, where the faces and shapes really look weird. But this is not that common. Many people have strong opinion about Deen's animation quality, but here they were able to achieve a decent animation, with some scenes being a bit derpier, but also some episodes were animated outstandingly good. For example in many scenes the lighting is astonishing, and they paid great attention to the details. So if you heard at some places that this anime has "crappy animation", then I would advise you to still give it a chance, it's not as bad as they say.
The backgrounds were always drawn very beautifully, and those combined with the beautiful lighting could create a very memorable and touching moment.
Sounds:
The sounds are great, and seiyuus are awesome! Everyone's voice fits well, and they could always give the feeling what they needed to give.
The music were amazing, some of them rose the given scene so high... It really enhanced the experience. Especially when suddenly in a dramatic scene a fitting music starts playing, and from that point on not only the characters talk, but it's something lot more. My personal favorite is the opening and ending, "Verge of Death", "Spirit of Succession", but all of them great.
Characters:
This is also an aspect of the anime in which it really shines. The main protagonists starts out as a puppy, who know very little, so obviously he will make mistakes. Sometimes his decisions might even seem wrong, but he is still learning, and developing. And I think this is a great thing in this anime. If we look back from the end to the beginning of the story, then we can see how much each character have developed. It's hard to tell specifics without spoilers, but many characters will change their minds entirely about specific things, and this is also very satisfying to watch.
It's a good feature in the series that at the end the team of protagonists is not a randomly assembled group of strays, but all the characters are well known, and we know what to expect from them.
The villains were also interesting in this series, especially the first one, but generally all of them had an interesting backstory, which makes the viewers understand why they became so ruthless.
Enjoyment:
If you like action animes with animals, then I'm pretty sure you'll have a good time watching this series. The drama, emotions, and epic action hooked me a lot.
In my opinion this series is one of those which cannot be forgotten easily, it has many memorable scenes and likeable characters. So I would recommend everyone to give it a try. Maybe you will enjoy it even more if you already seen the prequel, but as I said at the beginning it's not necessary.

I saw Saint Seiya for the first time around a year ago, and at the first few episodes I had doubts with the series, but episode 8 was the turning point. From that point on there were always something to be excited about, the storyline never became boring. This story is understandably popular in many parts of the world, it well deserved its fame. We can witness not just the fight between Bronze, Silver and Gold Saints, or experience the many plot twists what the series presents us, but we can also get a feel about the brotherhood of the main Bronzes. At some parts
