Masami Kurumada talks about the live-action movie of "Saint Seiya" and believes it will convey the passion of the original work

The highly anticipated live-action movie of the classic manga "Saint Seiya" will be released first in Japan on April 28 and in North America on May 12. Recently, the original author Masami Kurumada accepted an interview with the media and expressed his latest thoughts. He vowed that "I believe it will convey the passion of the original work." Please look forward to the release of the film.

The live-action Saint Seiya film tells a new original story: When the mysterious power "Cosmo" awakens in the body of the street orphan Seiya, he puts on the ancient Greek Pegasus armor and joins a supernatural war for the fate of Sienna, a girl who struggles to control her own divine power.

In the past, most of the film and television adaptations of classic Japanese comics were criticized by fans for "ruining the original work". This time, the live-action movie of "Saint Seiya" has received good feedback, except for the complaints that the saint armor is not shiny enough. The original author Masami Kurumada, who served as the production consultant, is obviously very satisfied.

When the film is about to be released, Masami Kurumada said in an interview with the media, "The boys and girls who grew up watching Seiya have created such a sincere movie for us overseas. I believe that the enthusiasm and sincerity will definitely be conveyed to the audience."
