If you loved Hong Kil-dong, try Saint Seiya: The Heated Battle of the Gods

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Theysit in Action / Fantasy territory. If that's the register that drew you to Hong Kil-dong, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Saint Seiya: The Heated Battle of the Gods is

You look for Hyoga in Asgard. Athena vanishes as you search, and then Dolvar's warriors confront you. Yamauchi’s pacing lends urgency to the stakes. The animation style recalls an era of Saturday morning pleasures. It lingers in the memory.
