Knights of the Zodiac

Seiya battles a powerful opponent to gain possession of the Pegasus Cloth.

In Japan, Seiya discovers that Saori Kido has organized a martial arts tournament for Saints.

Cygnus Saint Hyoga leaves the Siberian seas and travels to Tokyo for the Galaxian Wars tournament.

Seiya struggles as he deals with Dragon Shiryu's exceptional attack and defense.

As the fighters battle without their Cloths, Shiryu is sure that victory is imminent.

During the fight between Shun and Jabu, Shun's Nebula Chain forms the letters, "AXIA"; Shun tells everyone that these letters and the chain is telling something about the Saint's enemy.

The Phoenix Saint Ikki wreaks havoc in the tournament as he attacks Shun and Jabu.

Seiya and his fellow competitors fight through the pain to pursue Ikki, who has stolen the Gold Cloth to aid in his sinister plans.

Worried about the change in Ikki, Shun heads to a tree where they trained when they were young.

In an attempt to find a person named Mu to repair the Pegasus and Dragon Cloths, Shiryu travels to Jamir, a place known as the Cemetery of Cloths.

The Pegasus Cloth enters the battle with the Black Saints, but Shiryu does not.

Hyoga comes face to face with Ikki, but Ikki uses his Diamond Dust attack against him.

Shiryu's sacrifice to repair the Cloths leaves him as no match for Black Dragon.

Seiya and Hyoga return from their brush with death to help take on Ikki.

After the battle, Ikki reveals the living hell he experienced on Death Queen Island.

Docrates abducts Saori and demands that Seiya bring the helmet of the Gold Cloth to the colosseum.

Docrates threatens his hostages' lives if the knights refuse his demands; Hyoga thinks up a plan.

Gheist and her Ghost Saints threaten to blow up an oil tanker if they aren't given the helmet.

Saori reveals the location of Geist's island hideout; Seiya and his friends head there to take back the helmet, but one threat after another awaits them.

Seiya and his friends head out to see the masters who trained them to learn about their enemies.

Hyoga returns to Siberia to find his master has turned evil; he demands Hyoga turn over the helmet.

Since four of the Bronze Saints are not in Japan, Giggars decides to go to Japan with the Flame Saint to retrieve the Mask of the Gold Cloth; Andromeda Saint Shun and the Flame Saint's fight begins.

Seiya and his friends, including the resurrected Ikki, realize that their enemy is Pope Ares.

Misty is sent to kill Seiya and sends him flying into the ocean, but Seiya isn't ready to give up.

Seiya attempts to save Marin and is defeated by Asterion, but then Marin rejoins the fight.

Overwhelmed by the Silver Saint Babel, Seiya and his friends are rescued by mysterious Steel Saints.

Algol and Spartan attack Seiya, Shun and Shiryu; the Medusa Shield turns Seiya and Shun to stone.

Shiryu must defeat Argol to rescue Seiya and Shun, but his Dragon Shield is turned to stone.

Shiryu is taken to Lushan to recover; Saori is kidnapped by a flock of crows controlled by Jamain.

Seiya manages to rescue Saori from the crow's clutches, but they are cornered at the top of a cliff.

The Silver Saints' Dante and Capella overpower Shun and Hyoga, throwing them off the cliff; as they turn their attention to Saori, Ikki suddenly arrives.

Ikki returns to Death Queen Island after receiving a challenge from the new leader, Jango; as he thinks of his deceased lover, Esmeralda, Ikki realizes why he is fighting and vows to wipe out the Black Saints for good.

Back in China, Shiryu's eyes show no signs of improvement despite his friend Shunrei's efforts.

Reminded by his master to focus on the reasons why he fights, Shiryu meets Ohko to settle their score; unwilling to fight a weakened Shiryu, Ohko blindfolds his own eyes to make the fight even.

Seiya looks for the Water of Life to cure Shiryu; Saori and her Saints search for the Gold Cloth.

Pope Arles orders the Gold Saint Milo to eliminate Seiya; in Japan, Seiya is attacked by Shaina.

Seiya refuses to fight Shaina's attacks, but suddenly Gold Saint Aioria arrives and attacks.

Saori arrives just as Aioria wins and reveals the truth about her past with Aioria's brother, Aiolos.

Shiryu is given the Water of Life, but it doesn't work; suddenly, Deathmask arrives to kill Roshi.

Before the battle at the Sanctuary, Seiya and his friends stop at the orphanage where they grew up.

Shun rescues June before he rejoins the others; Aioria confronts Arles about his brother and Athena.

To save Saori's life, Seiya and his friends have just hours to travel through the 12 Houses and fetch the Pope to remove the arrow in her chest.

The Bronze Saints are helpless against Aldebaran, the Gold Saint of the House of Taurus; Seiya is hit and loses all of his senses.

Seiya awakens his Seventh Sense during the fight with Aldebaran and advances alone into the House of Gemini, a world of alternating light and darkness.

Hyoga battles the Gold Saint of Gemini, but his attacks are all thrown back at him; Seiya and Shiryu also fight the Gold Saint in the other House of Gemini.

Just before Shun is pulled into an alternate dimension, he is rescued by his brother Ikki; Shun faces the Gold Saint of Gemini once more to try and save Hyoga.

Free of the alternate dimension, Hyoga faces off against Camus, the Gold Saint of Aquarius and the one who taught Hyoga's master.

The House of Cancer is filled with the faces of those killed by Cancer Deathmask, and an enraged Shiryu takes on the sneering Saint.

Shiryu can sense Shunrei's prayers helping him as he battles Deathmask; Deathmask can also sense the prayers and goes to finish Shunrei off.

Shiryu launches a furious counterattack against Deathmask but fails to do any damage until something shocking happens.

Seiya is glad to see Aioria in the House of Leo, but the Gold Saint is surprisingly hostile; Marin battles her way to the Sanctuary.

Seiya finally lands a blow with help from Marin's Cosmo, but Aioria gets back up and begins pummeling Seiya with murder in his eyes.

As Shiryu and Shun race to the House of Leo, Seiya's former rival Cassios arrives and tells them that Ares is controlling Aioria.

Now free from his trance, Aioria warns Seiya about Shaka, the man closest to God, who is waiting in the House of Virgo; Assassins come for Ikki on Canon Island.

Immobilized and cut off from Saori's attempts to reach him with her Cosmo, Ikki is helpless against the onslaught of Shaka's disciples.

Seiya, Shiryu and Shun enter the House of Virgo and attempt to defeat Shaka before he opens his eyes; just as Shaka beats them effortlessly, Ikki appears.

Ikki battles Shaka's Six Incarnations with his Phoenix Illusion, but it has no effect; Ikki sees a vision of himself as a child as they fight.

Five of Ikki's senses are gone and he cannot move, but he won't allow Shun to battle Shaka; Ikki has realized something during the fight with Shaka.

Shun risks his life and burns his Cosmo to warm the weakened Hyoga; Seiya and Shiryu arrive at the House of Scorpio and begin to battle the Gold Saint Milo.

Shiryu opens the ice box and finally succeeds to release Hyoga from the ice box, but his energy power is so low so Shun decides to warm him up. While Shun is saving Hyoga, Seiya and Shiryu go to the next house.

A revived Hyoga tells Seiya and Shiryu to leave with the unconscious Shun, and stays behind to battle Milo; a horde of soldiers arrives to kill Saori.

Hyoga's ultimate attack has no effect on Milo, but he refuses to give up; seeing Hyoga's determination, Milo reveals the real reason Camus encased him in ice.

When Tatsumi places the Golden Sceptre in Saori's hand, it summons the Sagittarius Gold Cloth; Tatsumi explains it once belonged to Aioria's brother, the Gold Saint Aiolos.

The Gold Cloth's arrow reveals a passage into the House of Sagittarius, but one deadly trap after another awaits Seiya and his friends.

The Bronze Saints find the House of Capricorn unguarded, but Gold Saint Shura attacks as they leave; Shiryu pushes his friends to safety and begins to do battle with Shura.

Despite doing some damage to Shura with a desperate gambit, Shiryu is gravely injured; the only way he can defeat Shura is to use a technique forbidden by his master.

At the House of Aquarius, Hyoga faces off against Camus, the master of his master; Camus explains that in a battle between Ice Saints, the winner will be the one whose cold is closer to absolute zero.

To let Seiya advance to the Pope's chambers, Shun plans to fight alone at the House of Pisces; he faces off against Pisces Aphrodite, the final guardian of the 12 Houses.

Aphrodite reveals that he killed Shun's master Albiore alongside Scorpio Milo, and Shun attacks to avenge his master.

Aphrodite's black rose attacks destroy Shun's chains and also the Andromeda Cloth; defenseless and on the verge of death, Shun's true power awakens and he unleashes the Nebula Storm.

Marin risks her own life to rescue Seiya from the poisonous Demon Roses; Seiya entrusts the fallen Marin to Shaina and enters the Pope's chambers.

Showing a different personality and clad in the Gemini Gold Cloth, the Pope begins to destroy Seiya's senses; Mu senses Shaka calling out to him.

Her life saved by the shield of Athena, Saori heads for the Pope's chambers as her Bronze and Gold Saints make their way to battle the Gemini Gold Saint.

Ruler of Asgard Hilda assembles the seven God Warriors of Asgardian legend to defeat the Sanctuary.

Hilda's sister Freya reveals that the change in Hilda will cause grave danger as ice caps melt.

Seiya and his friends race to Valhalla Palace to free Hilda from the Nibelung Ring's evil control.

Shiryu arrives to rescue Seiya from Thor's assault and reveals they need the seven guardian stones.

Shiryu keeps getting up in spite of Fenrir's onslaught; Fenrir refuses to trust anyone but wolves.

Shiryu and Fenrir's battle continues as both find their powerful attacks can't finish the fight.

Hyoga attempts to convince Hagen to give up his guardian stone for Freya's sake.

Raised in the cold climate of Siberia, Hyoga struggles in the oppressive heat of the magma cavern.

Hyoga leaves Flare to Kiki and he goes to the next step to get the Odin Sapphire; so far Shun does not get any injuries, but he starts hearing a sound of harp.

Shun continues to struggle to battle Mime as he realizes the lyre's music has deceived his senses.

Mime turns his assault on Ikki, who senses something hidden within Mime's powerful Cosmo.

Ikki has revealed Mime's heart by his "Great Illusion"; Now, Mime starts to bring back his love for his father, Forker, which he killed.

Considered the greatest mind in Asgard, Alberich heads out to stop the Saints and encounters Marin as she tries to infiltrate Asgard.

With Marin enclosed in amethyst and Alberich demanding his surrender, Seiya makes a harrowing decision and unleashes his Pegasus Meteor Punch.

Fearing Seiya and Marin will die in the amethyst, Hyoga can't bring himself to use his full power.

Alberich's Amethyst Shield is useless battling Shiryu's Dragon Shield, but his Nature Unity is not.

The God Warrior Syd waits for Shun at the Valhalla Palace; Marin tells Shaina about Syd's strength.

Shun is hit, but Ikki calls from afar as his consciousness fades and rekindles his will to fight.

Burning with hunger to take his brother Syd's place as a true God Warrior, Bud overwhelms Ikki.

Only the God Warrior Siegfried remains, the immortal hero of Asgardian legend, and one by one, the Bronze Saints fall before his might.

Shiryu takes on Siegfried, but his attacks are futile against the seemingly immortal warrior.

The Bronze Saints entrust Seiya with their remaining life energy, upsetting Siegfried's confidence.

After having the seven guardian stones, Seiya must retrieve the legendary sword Balmung, but Hilda's dark energy blocks his way.

Seiya uses Balmung to free Hilda.

Saori awakens after being taken by a wave and is shocked to see the man who once asked her to marry him standing before her as Poseidon.

Saori enters the pillar supporting the seas to take on the water herself and give humanity a chance.

The only way Saori can be saved is by destroying the pillars, which are guarded by Mariner Generals.

After the deadly battle with Bian, Seiya finally defeats him; he tries to break down the pillar, but he cannot destroy it; at the same time, Shun just starts fighting with Io of Scylla who guards the South Pacific pillar.

Shun's versatile chain counteracts Io's beasts; Poseidon tells Saori about discovering his destiny.

Shun notices his Bronze Cloth glowing with more power; Shiryu has difficulty against Krishna.

The Knights of Athena battle the Knights of Ares for control of the Golden Cloth of Sagittarius.

Shun finds Seiya and Hyoga at the pillar of the Antarctic Ocean, but they are attacked by the guardian of the Antarctic Ocean pillar, Kasa.

Determined not to let emotions influence him, Hyoga heads to the Arctic pillar and finds Isaac.

Witnessing Isaac's cruelty toward young Kiki, Hyoga no longer hesitates to fight his old partner.

Ikki is certain he's felt the powerful energy of the Mariner General Sea Dragon somewhere before.

Seiya faces Poseidon and his Bronze Cloth glows with golden light, but Poseidon destroys it easily.

Shun destroys the South Atlantic pillar; in the Sagittarius Gold Cloth, Seiya challenges Poseidon.

Not even the golden arrow of Sagittarius can harm the divine Poseidon, but Seiya keeps going.

With Shiryu and Hyoga also wearing Gold Cloth, Athena's Bronze Saints finally defeat Poseidon, but not even Libra's Shield can take down the central pillar.
