The 97-episode Saint Seiya Omega has arrived on Crunchyroll, marking the complete series available with both English dub and subtitles. Produced by Toei Animation to celebrate the franchise's 25th anniversary, the series dives into a new generation of Saints protecting Athena and Earth.
Set years after the original Saint Seiya, this iteration focuses on Kouga, a young boy raised by Saori Kido (Athena). When a new threat emerges from Mars, Kouga awakens his Cloth and joins other young Saints to battle the encroaching darkness. The show leans into its action and adventure roots, blending mythological themes with sci-fi elements and a focus on astronomy-inspired powers.
While a departure from the original's tone and character focus, Saint Seiya Omega offers a fresh take on the beloved franchise. Its extensive run allows for deep character development and elaborate combat sequences, making it a substantial binge for fans of the Saint Seiya universe or those looking for a lengthy mythological action series.
