These series are one of the pioneers of the history of anime, and we should judge it by that. The meaning of this anime in the 86' was tremendous, but it is merely anecdotal. Saint Seiya is the foundation stone of all the good animes in the 90's.
On the other hand, the series are a bit childish and sometimes poor directed. A lot of scenes were terribly repeating and long, I'm literally talking about chapters that very little happens, and the plot does not avance. The battles aren't very interesting either, they're slow and really basic, and even excessively predictable at times. The opponents look god-like-strong and in matter of minutes they look lame against the same warriors.
I would say that these series means a lot by its context, and by how it inspired another animes in the 90's and 00's; but being one of the first animes also mean that it wasn't so good.
Watched it all and now looking forward to watch Hades Chapter, The Lost Canvas, Omega, Soul of God and Saintia Sho; I hope they raise the level. Would not recommend 6/10
