Synopsis

After the Saints' victory against Hades, Seiya is left wounded and motionless in a wheel chair with no possible chance of recovery. Athena's sister Artemis, the Virgin Goddess of the Moon and twin sister of Apollo, makes an elaborate proposal - to restore Seiya's physical health in exchange for the supremacy of Sanctuary. Athena accepts and Artemis and her "Knights of the Sky" swiftly take control of Sanctuary. Now Seiya and his fellow Bronze Saints combat the forces of Zeus to regain their homeland but it will not be so easy. Bronze Saints Hydra Ichi and Unicorn Jabu, and Silver Saint Ophiuchus Shaina have join forces with Artemis and Apollo.

The music is almost nonexistent, it's as if they forgot completely that the movie should actually have some of it.

When the movie hits the Icarus vs Seiya part it slowly starts to build up ...

Note: this is about the Heaven saga, the last part of Saint Seiya, so there are some spoilers of the previous sagas (but not for this movie), so please, have that in mind.

With the positive opinions the Hades Saga (chapter Sanctuary) received, Masami Kurumada, Saint Seiya's creator, finally got the OK to make the final stage of the series, that one that hadn't even been in the manga: the heaven part. For the very first time, we would receive an adaptation of the Olympus war, that final showdown we only heard rumors about. The idea was that this movie would ...
