In the Saint Seiya universe, there are 88 Cloths, each representing one of the 88 constellations. They are divided into 3 categories, from the weakest to the strongest : 48 Bronze Cloths, 24 Silver Cloths, and 12 Gold Cloths. The databook named "Cosmo Special" explains that there are ... 4 Cloths which are still unaccounted for. However, in the Episode G manga and on some action-figures packaging, it is said that there are 52 Bronze Cloths. The theory is that 4 cloths became god cloths, in according to Hypnos' statement that there haven't been any since mythological times. Vol. 24 of the manga positions Seiya, Shiryu, Hyoga and Shun under the Argo Navis constellation, which may indicate that the 4 missing cloths are of the four Argo Navis constellations.

Pode afirmar-se que Saint Seiya deu contribuições especiais no desenvolvimento da cultura japonesa de mangás e animes. É a mais importante e antiga origem para Doujinshi, que acabou crescendo numa subcultura periférica significativa de anime e mangá. Os grupos Doujinshi têm atualmente um grande número de membros no Leste Asiático, América do Sul e Oeste Europeu.

While Saint Seiya may have been produced in the mid to late 80s, it looks like an anime from the late 70s thanks to the quality of the DVD. The show is presented in color with a full frame aspect ratio and there are quite a few problems with the transfer. For starters there is a lot of grain in the image as well as a bunch of speckle. As if that weren't enough most of the colors here are faded and the picture has a soft edge to it. The animation is another gray area that Saint Seiya is plagued by visually and the show is rather choppy when you get right down to it. Fans may not care too much, but for newcomers there are much better managed series on the market.

In Saint Seiya, most characters are warriors who wear different types of "cloth" (armor). The different cloths are fashioned by smiths working for the competing Gods, to be used by their own warriors to defend themselves or attempt to conquer the domain of other gods (more frequently, a god will attempt to seize the human world, which is the possession of Athena). Of note is the fact that none of the actual makers of cloth is ever depicted, although it is explained that Mū (and by inference, Shion and Kiki) are descendants of the tribe who forged Athena's Saints' cloth. It is said that only Mu is capable of repairing cloth.
