And when you get to know some of the characters in an individual sense, you do get drawn to them because of how well they are presented with their personal traits and background. The personalities of the main cast overall can be considered stereotypical by modern day standards with Seiya as the act now/never think leader Ikki as the lone wolf and Shun as the more soft and feminine guy, but at least the chemistry is balanced and each character can be a foil to one another. But it's not only interesting that Seiya only develops, but the rest of the cast and even some of the villains have their own unique development as well.
But after a short while, Seiya comes to embrace his role as Earth's protector.
But after awhile, he discovers that he can use his role to hopefully have his sister also find him early on in the series. For example, the main character, Seiya, wants nothing to do with being a saint for Athena, and wants to find his long lost sister.

The amount of episodes put into this series allows each character to have their own contribution to the story, as well as to have their own individual and relationship development. Keep in mind this is a semi-retelling of Greek mythology with some Asian cultural twists to it which add a unique element to it in that sense. The pacing can be slow, but very spread out. If you're expecting something very accurate and 100% faithful, don't bet on it. If you pretty much know the original Greek stories on a basic level, I say it can add a bit more to the enjoyment. I like how the concept of chains for lets say Andromeda is transitioned from the original mythology to the character Shun, and of course everybody knows what the legend of the phoenix is, and its used very conveniently with the character Ikki. As a modern day re-telling of those qualities, I find that it's adapted very excellently. Story and CharactersWhat really appealed to me about this story was the inclusion of Greek mythology and the use of the constellations to each represent a guardian to Athena.
