character development - fights - story arc - logic (lol) HOWEVER the people moaning about the fact that it is not a 1:1 replica of the anime should take a trip back down memory lane (on Youtube for example) and realize that those were too lengthy, verbose and that most of the fights were left to the reader as an exercise.
As far as I'm concerned this is the best Saint Seiya Movie EVER. In Sanctuary they confront 'Pope' and wage a desperate battle against the greatest Saints, the 'Gold Saints'. She is saved by a boy, Seiya 'Bronze Saint' from a sudden attack by an assassin, through the accident Saori realizes her destiny and mission and decides to go to 'Sanctuary' with Seiya and his company of Bronze Saints. In this present day story, many years since the long fought 'Holy War' we find Saori Kido, a girl troubled by her mysterious powers. Warriors called 'Saints' are the champions of hope who have always appeared since the Age of Myth whenever evil threatens the world.
