Knights of the Zodiac

With the full force of Sanctuary bent on destroying the four exhausted Bronze Knights, Princess Sienna's mission seems impossible. But, as Seiya is about to discover, the Princess brought a secret weapon to the 12 Palaces... something that will upset the balance of power in Sanctuary and reveal a message of hope in the Bronze Knights' darkest hour!

The Bronze Knights have penetrated to the innermost palace of Sanctuary, where the last and most dangerous Gold Knight awaits. To avenge his master, Shun volunteers to face Aphrodite, the Pisces Knight, alone. But both Seiya and Shun fall victim to Aphrodite's treacherous Demon Rose attacks. Beyond the final palace waits the elusive Master of Sanctuary. But what are his true plans for the Knights?

The battle for Sanctuary reaches its climax! Seiya penetrates to the heart of the Master's chamber, only to be paralyzed by the Master's deadly Phantom Demon Emperor Attack. With Seiya stricken, the Bronze Knights seem to have reached the end of their quest to save Princess Sienna's life... but all is not yet lost, as a figure from the past returns to face the Master in a final showdown!

Gods now walk the earth in human form, and not all of them are benevolent. Princess Sienna discovers this when she meets Julian Solo, who claims to be Poseidon, god of the seas. Julian believes that Sienna, the incarnation of the goddess Athena, is destined to be his bride. And his plans for their future together include a world cleansed of the human race...

To save Princess Sienna and stop Solo, the Bronze Knights must defeat the guardians of the sevens seas and destroy the seven pillars they defend. For Shun, this means facing Skila, master of illusions, and six deadly attacks, each more powerful than Shun's Andromeda Chains. For Shiryu, it means taking on Krisha, the incarnation of Poseidon's son, whose golden spear can slice through Shiryu's Dragon Shield with ease.

At the Arctic Ocean Pillar, Hyoga faces Isaac, an old friend turned fearsome enemy. At the North Atlantic Pillar, Ikki is attacked by Sea Dragon, Poseidon's right-hand man, who seems strangely familiar. Could the evil Master of Sanctuary, whom the Knights have defeated in their first epic battle, have returned to life?

Having donned the Sagittarius Gold Cloth, Seiya is ready to face Poseidon... or is he? Now fully awakened to his powers, Poseidon can deflect even the Centaur's golden arrow with ease. Only ultimate friendship will allow the Bronze Knights to destroy the undersea pillars and learn the secrets of Poseidon's power.

The Galaxian Wars continue with the mighty Unicorn Bronze Knight Jab going head to head against the Lionet Bronze Knight Ban. Then, in the ice-covered wasteland of Siberia, a mysterious letter orders the Swan Knight Hyoga to execute all the Bronze Knights who have violated their code. Will they survive, or will he?

The army of Hades has descended upon Sanctuary, and Athena's Knights face new horrors at every turn. The Gold Knights killed in past battles have returned as undead warriors of Hades. And with them come even more powerful Specters, supernatural beings sent by Hades to enslave the world of the living.

Seiya and his friends have often put their lives on the line to defend humanity and the goddess Athena. But when the deathless army of Hades invades the mortal world, mere human life may not be enough to stop it. To survive the Battle of the Gods, Athena's Knights will need the power of Heaven itself...

To stop the army of Hades, Athena's Knights have unleashed forces beyond even their control. Hit by two cosmic blows of the forbidden Athena Exclamation, Sanctuary itself begins to crumble. But the battle has only just begun.

Deep in the underworld, the Bronze Knights face the minions of Hades head-on. On the River Acheron, they must bargain with the treacherous ferryman, Charon. In the Hall of Judgment, their souls are weighed by the Specter Rene. And in the prisons beyond, they face the three-headed dog Cerberus and the Specter Pharaoh.
