Since April I follow this anime show, which is in fact one in many years for me. It officially airs fortnightly on DAISUKI.net online streaming service, the Japanese counterpart of CRUNCHYROLL. Contents are available for free during the two weeks, until the next show is up and running.

Before I went to Japan I didn’t know this story of Greek mythology inspired warriors in their CLOTH armors, fighting for ATHENA’s cause, existed. That might be due to the fact that although very popular in France, Italy, Spain and South American countries, there was little or no localization into German and from what I read also less of a hype with English speaking audience. It is the 6th show into the latest story arc – SOUL OF GOLD – and I have been enjoying a good deal so far. I especially like the well-developed character designs of the GOLD SAINTS, of which LEO AIOLIA is the main character. I am also very fond of the soundtrack, which is very powerful in the opening and gentle for the ending theme. The lyrics of both songs below as well as the video of the opening. For the ending theme, here this fan made video.
