Do you feel the power of the cosmos!?, January 25, 2009
This review is from: Saint Seiya: Collection 1 (DVD)
Well I had missed the first printing of the Saint Seiya collection sets and I have to say it is nice to have a reissue to be able to get a series quickly and easily instead of having to look all around for it or going through imports. As for the series itself it is an awesomely wonderful piece of '80's anime. The series is presented uncut so all the blood and fighting is kept intact. The series tells the tale of warriors or "Saints" chosen to contest for the golden armor. (The plot changes as the story goes on) Each saint is given an armor pertaining to a constellation. Along with individual armor each saint battles with a set of signature moves pertaining to their constellation. A great set for anyone who likes '80's or '90's anime and I hope there is more to come.

Great Collection., May 7, 2009
This review is from: Saint Seiya: Collection 1 (DVD)
Watching these dvds brings back the good old days when I was a kid watching Saint Seiya in the morning. The action is amazing and violent, which I love.
However, I do agree that the fact that only the first 60 episodes are being released does take away from the excitement of buying the collections. Unfortunately, I have bought both these collections and I just found the entire series including the entire hades and death of hades sagas for the same price. Its in spanish but I don't mind, because I actually prefer anime in spanish, the voice acting in spanish is way better than english. I have a friend that will buy the two collections I have so it's a win win for me.
So, I you want the entire series, don't buy this collection. Try to find and import, if you don't mind reading subtitles or if you speak spanish or japanese. If you don't care about getting the entire series then go ahead and buy this collection, you will enjoy watching an epic anime.

This is one of the series that started Japanese anime in the USA. The graphics isn't the best but I still love it :)
