They are wings of a heart that nobody can steal.

Using the armor of their constellations they explode the cosmos, the energy hidden in their bodies, and fight. They are the warriors that protect peace, love and wisdom on Earth: The Masters of Wisdom.

The plot of this animated series focuses on the story of a group of young warriors called "saints" (or "knights"), whose main protagonist is Seiya, Saint or knight who wears the armor of Pegasus. These warriors fight to protect the Greek goddess Athena and humanity from the forces of evil that want to dominate the Earth. For their battles, each saint uses his inner energy linked to the universe (the "cosmos"), his special fighting techniques, and his armor, all inspired by each of the 88 constellations, which represent them as knights or Saints of Athena and protect them in the fighting.

The cosmos

Life is an energy that emanates from three major constellations: The Big Dipper, Sirius and The Pleiades. The human being carries that energy inside, this universal force is called Cosmos . In theory, all people have a cosmos, but the Saints are the ones who make the most of this power.

When a Saint turns on his cosmos, it is visible in the eyes of others and is perceived by others who use the cosmos. The visual field occupied by the cosmos is a clear expression of the power of the Saint who uses it. When a Saint dies, this can be felt by other Saints, because they cease to perceive their cosmos.

Warriors wear armor of different kinds. They are robes or sacred robes delivered by the gods.

Holiness

In order for an aspirant to achieve the rank of Saint, in addition to mastering the basic techniques of combat, he must learn to channel the energy of his protective guardian constellation. The category of Saints is established according to the level of cosmo they manage to use in battles. To achieve this, every human being will have to dedicate his efforts to maintain habits, rules, behavior, a discipline that lead him to achieve learning and achieve mastery.

First you must learn to master the forms, through the elements that integrate it.

Second it has to dominate the foundations of Wisdom, by means of the planets that conserve it.

Third, the origin of Life must be understood through the constellations that contain it.

There is a big difference between Caballero and Santo. The series presents warriors much closer to the "saints" of ancient Greece who fought for their god, whom they aspired to resemble. Unlike the medieval royal knights who fought for their own benefit, the Saints fight for ideals superior to human needs. An example of this is that Seiya himself was warned by the Patriarch that if he used armor for personal purposes, he would be persecuted by all Saints in order to end that practice.

The Bronze Saints (The Form)

It can be said that a person is Holy, when the Spiritual Life that animates him, has integrated five of the seven elements. Holiness is the process by which inclusiveness develops.

There are 7 elements of the cosmos and it is necessary to master an element if the holy bearer of the sacred garment wishes to have this new power. Armor reacts along with these elements; but also the most powerful warriors can dominate an element without using their armor.

Each attack of the element of the cosmos can be advantageous against another element of the cosmos according to its natural qualities, even so, if a warrior's cosmos is more powerful than the warrior's cosmos whose element has an advantage, simply this advantage is annulled by having such Cosmos level The elements mentioned in the series are: fire , wind, thunder, earth, water, darkness and light . Each of them with their strengths and weaknesses, as well as their qualities. The element of light is supreme since it does not have any disadvantage in the face of other element attacks but it is the most difficult to find in any saint, that of darkness can only succumb easily against the light and most are evil warriors like the Martians .
