    Saint Seiya: Knights of the Zodiac is an anime based on Greek mythology about a group of knights competing in the Galactic War for the Sacred Armor of Pegasus - and ultimately the title of one of the saints of Athena. Seiya, the protagonist, is determined to win at all costs. There are many references to Greek mythology in the Saint Seiya: Knights of the Zodiac anime series.

    For example, all holy cloths are named after the Zodiac signs, such as the Sagittarius cloth. The Andromeda shackles are the same as the shackles that bind Andromeda in Greek mythology as a sacrifice to save Argos. The anime also realizes how unkind the gods are.
