Oh, I hope not. That picture looks kind of cool, like the ones they released for their Captain Harlock and Gaiking projects. I just hope it doesn't wind up looking like the 3D One Piece movie, that was pretty off-looking Laughing

Supposedly Masami Kurumada himself is going to be heavily involved in this CG movie so hopefully we won't be getting another Tenkai-hen ~Overture~ problem again.

Anyway, the idea of it being CG is a little odd and different but I'm willing to give it a try when I get the chance to do so.

I thought it was going to be a live-action film of Saint Seiya, but the trailer makes me want to watch more, and my uncle is going to be happy with this news. I wait, to see it, since Kurumada is involved in the project. Very Happy

*wakes up* Huh? Wha? *reads*
...
PEGASUS... RYUSEI KEN! AWESOME!!

But, I'll say it again (though this is much bigger news): Wake me up when someone (CR, Hulu, you guys, etc.) starts hosting the original series. But, now I won't get much sleep anyway.

More Saint Seiya is a great thing, but CG? I hope it turns out well.

I know it won't happen but i wish if Kuramada regains his sanity and bring back Tohru Furuya for the role of Seiya. The cast change in Saint Seiya will go done as the worst decision made in the seiyuu industry IMHO.

You are aware that Toei didn't release the Gaiking promos, right? That was a company who wanted Toei's approval and a budget for an actual movie.

The movie was supposed to be released in 2011 in Japan and 2012 in the rest of the world. We've heard nothing since that video was released.

Hopefully, this doesn't end up the same way. Because more Saint Seiya is always a good thing.
