When will this manga be adapted? I really want it to can’t wait to see Artemis get animated. Also Aries Shion, Libra Dohko, Virgo Shijima, Pisces Cardinale, Taurus Ox, and all other canon gold saints of the 18th century.

The anime hasn't been announced yet and I don't think it will be announced in the nearest future.

Personally, after seeing what happened with Saintia Shou anime adaptation, I would prefer to not see any Saint Seiya anime in the next years, lol.

As for ND alone, I think if it ever gets an anime adaptation, it might be when the manga enters its climax.

What's the issue with Saintia Shou? I was never interested in it so I have no idea.

Anime adaptation of Saintia Shou is disasterous, to put it simple. Why? Here are some reasons that come to my mind:
- the source material was adapted poorly and many things were omitted; - its animation was really bad and sometimes resembled more a slideshow than actual anime;
- its artstyle was a poor attempt to imitate Shingo Araki's style, known from the original anime series. Characters also suffered from being poorly drawn. There were a lot of body disproportions, like (which was the most common issue) too big heads of main characters.

Only positive things I can think of while thinking about Saintia Shou anime are: opening theme, soundtrack in general, and some still shots of characters that actually looked good and detailed (as long as there was not much movement, that is).

If you want to start your adventure with Saintia Shou, then I highly recommend picking up the manga. It's really good with awesome story and beautiful art.

BTW I did a quick reading of a synopsis, do they give a specific reason for their Amazons not wearing a mask? Or is it the same reason as in Omega when Yuna says she doesn't wear it because she doesn't want to, or something?

I'm so, so sorry that I'm replying after several months. I swear I saw your post shortly after you wrote it, but I forgot that I didn't reply to it... :(


Artemis' Satellites (that's how her forces are called like, by the way) don't need to wear masks, because they serve under Artemis, not Athena; therefore rules applying to Saints of Athena have no effect on them.

Female Saints of Athena, excluding Saintias (serving directly under the goddess), had to wear masks to "cast aside their womanhood" in order to be able to fight alongside male Saints.

Artemis' Satellites didn't have to wear those masks also because all Satellites' were females, proud to serve as female servants under their goddess, Artemis. That's why there was no need to hide or cast away their womanhood, as in Athena's Saints' case. They were proud of the fact they were female warriors.
