The television adaptation began in 1986 at \u003cstrong\u003eToei Animation\u003c\/strong\u003e and follows Seiya and the Saints as they protect Athena through battles shaped by Greek mythology, cosmic power and elaborate armor design. With its dramatic choreography, emotional rivalries and iconic Cloths, \u003cem\u003eSaint Seiya\u003c\/em\u003e became one of the defining action series of its generation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe anime was created during the traditional cel era. Key poses were drawn on paper, cleaned as douga, transferred to transparent acetate and painted by hand.
