Overview

Saint Seiya: The Hades Chapter is an animated television series released in 2002. The plot centers on the antagonist Hades, who initiates a plan to take over the world. To achieve this objective, Hades sends deceased Gold Saints to retrieve the head of Athena. Seiya and the other Bronze Saints intervene to offer their assistance in the conflict. However, their efforts are not welcomed by the remaining Gold Saints who are still alive. The narrative focuses on this confrontation between the various factions of Saints as they navigate the threat posed by Hades. While the term saint is defined in religious contexts as a person recognized for holiness, moral perfection, or a special relationship with the sacred, the series utilizes the term to describe the warriors involved in this battle. The conflict highlights the tension between the Bronze Saints and the living Gold Saints as they face the supernatural challenge presented by the forces of Hades.
