Sagittarius Seiya (射手座（サジタリアス）の星矢 Sajitariasu no Seiya?) is the Sagittarius Gold Saint in the era of Omega. Seiya can use the element of Light.

Background
Formely the wearer of the Pegasus Bronze Cloth, Seiya is now regarded as a Legendary Gold Saint in the millieu of Omega. Having defended Athena in the past from powerful enemies, Seiya once again takes flight in his mission to protect Athena assisted by the Sagittarius Gold Cloth.

First Holy War Against Mars
During the period of peace that followed after the Holy War against Hades, the God of War Mars and his army of warriors called Martians invade the Earth and fight Athena and the Legendary Bronze Saints. Seiya, now officially wearing the Sagittarius Gold Cloth, stood up to the challenge with his companions  to defend the love and peace of the world once more.

During their first encounter, a meteor charged with dark cosmo, for unknown reasons, fell on the battlefield, momentarily ending the threat posed by Mars. This meteor brought with it a mysterious power, which resonated with Athena's Cloth. This collision caused a change in all of the Saints cloth, which enabled them the ability to use one of eight elements while also changing the Cloths into small gems called Cloth Stones. A new legend of the Saints had begun.

S econd Battle Against Mars
Unfortunately for the Saints, the meteor also granted Mars and his army with new power. With his new armor "Galaxy" and the ability to control the element of Darkness, Mars and his warriors return to face Athena and the Saints again.

With this new power Mars attacked Sanctuary in hopes of trying to capture Athena, who was raising the infant who would later become Pegasus Kōga. He attacks Athena, inflicting her with a mark of Darkness, but before he could continue, Seiya intervenes. Seeking to defend Athena and Kouga, Seiya faces the God of War in combat. In the clash, Mars manages to shatter parts of the Saggittarius Gold Cloth, but Seiya is still able to compete with the God of War in power. Finally, with the arrival of the rest of the Legendary Bronze Saints he manages to win and seal Mars, but the seal will not last forever. It is later revealed that Seiya had leapt into the darkness that Mars had contained within himself so as to become a last resort when he could no longer harbor the evil force within him.

Because of the power of Darkness Mars had attained, during their battle, most of the Saints who had faced him acquired Brands of Darkness, which prevents whoever is marked with the inability to burn their Cosmo or risk being comsumed by the darkness, effectively preventing them from fighting. When Seiya is released from the shackles of darkness on Mars, he is shown to have several of these scattered across his body.

Third Battle Against Mars
During the brief period of peace that came after the seal of Mars, Seiya is shown to have disappeared. Thirteen years later, Athena delivers the Pegasus Cloth to Kouga. Mars finally breaks free from his seal and goes to capture an unprotected Athena. Seiya, in turn, uses his Cosmo to teach Kouga, the Pegasus Ryu Sei Ken and explains to him more about his Cosmos.

While attempting to rescue Aria and Athena in Sanctuary, Leo Mycenae and Mars are able to defeat all the young Saints. About to end the life of Kouga, Mars is stopped by the brief return of Seiya's spirit, to the surprise of the God of War, who soon notices that his power is nearly extinguished. With his last bit of strength, Seiya is able to again confront Mars, and to protect, causes a big explosion in a clash of power between him and Mars. With the intervention of Seiya, the young Bronze Saints escape with their lives from the Tower of Babel.

Seiya is then seen again after the destruction of the Wind Ruin. Using his last remnants of Cosmo, Seiya manages to send a message, by the Pegasus Constellation to Kouga and the other Bronze Saints telling them that "To you I entrust Athena". After the message, Medea relates to Mars that Seiya's Cosmo has completely vanished.

Seiya's Return
The "Final" battle to save the Earth led the Bronze Saints to Mars, where Kōga finds himself possessed by Abzu, the God of Darkness. In turn, it is revealed that Seiya was being imprisoned for an indeterminate time in the depths of the red star, with his body covered and chained in Brands of Darkness. Mars, regretting having been consumed by the darkness, protected Seiya so that Abzu wouldn't possess him. He had kept Seiya alive to serve as a last resort, to continue the fight against the darkness in the case where was no longer able to contain it.

With the cosmo of Aquila Yuna, Lionet Sōma, Dragon Ryuho, Wolf Haruto and Orion Eden, combined with the remnants of Athena's scepter, the chains binding Seiya are broken. Seiya hastens back to the surface and prevents Abzu from killing Saori. With the help of Yuna, the only Bronze Saint to be standing still, they finally managed to release the Pegasus Saint from Abzu's possession.

Unfortunately, the respite is short-lived. Abzu fled the scene and kidnapped Saori. Seiya transfers the Sagittarius Gold Cloth to Kōga who is the only Saint still untouched by the darkness, to leap into Abzu's darkness and put an end to the battle once and for all. When Koga manages to free Athena, he throws her to the ground before Abzu can retake her. Seiya is the one who catches her, truly reuniting the two. Finally, once Kōga had defeated Abzu, a purifiying rain pours throughout Earth, cleansing people with Brands of Darkness finally having protected the love and peace in the world once more.

New War
After the struggle against Abzu, a new danger threatens Athena. Pallas, Athena's younger sister and God of Love , is about to make her comeback on Earth. On the orders of Athena, Seiya must kill Pallas, armed with the infamous Golden Dagger of a previous Gold Saint. However, he meets a young girl who begins to shed tears, ready to accept her fatal sentence. Torn between his duty and his feelings, the Gold Saint can not resolve to stain his hands with the blood of a child. It is at this point where the Pallasite Titan appears to prevent Pallas' death. After a brief scuffle, the latter carries the child, leaving Seiya alone with his remorse. His hesitation for Athena and her Saints has lead to a new war. Once back at the Sanctuary, Seiya reported to Athena to apologize for not killing sister Pallas. Still feeling remorse by what just happened, Seiya was convinced that he was no longer worthy to be a Gold Saint. Saori managed to comfort him and asked him to forgive her for having faced such an experience. The Saint and his Goddess' cause of concern did not waver as they stand to close to each other. Pleased, Seiya renews his oath and promises that he will protect Saori, which is a promise that the He reiterates shortly after to Kōga, during his visit to the Sanctuary.

Some time later, while Pallasites attack people around the world, Athena dreams to go to end the conflict that Seiya previously refused. Finally, Athena summoned her Saints to prepare for the coming war. During her speech, Pallas' braclet begins to drain Athena's life force, making her fall. Seiya acts quickly to catch her. Shortly after the death of Genbu, Seiya vows that he will not hesitate any longer, and will finally join in the war against Pallas. Not long after Seiya travels to a now besieged Pallasbelda and meets with the other bronze Saints. Now  with Athena on site, the legendary Saint comes easily to rout the enemy. Once the danger has passed, Seiya stays with Saori and assists the Bronze Saints to the location of the hideout of Pallas: the fortress of Pallasbelda.

Battle Of Pallas Belda
Prior to storming the premises. Seiya carried the weakened Athena back to her resting chambers, then vows that he will not hesitate any longer, and takes the Golden Dagger from it's box, determined to use it. Seiya then joined Pallas Belda, accompanied by some Silver Saints and Steel Saints. There, he and his friends found Kōga then opens the way to destroying the city gate. Nevertheless, many Pallasites soldiers stand in the way of the Saints. Seiya decides to create a diversion to allow his companions forward.

Thereafter, the Saint is working to win the Pallas Belda, decimating enemies in his path. During his advance, he meets Eden , about to start a fight against Europa. After a brief exchange of blows,Europa scares Seiya and talk a bit with the son of Mars before resuming his journey. Some time later,Seiya comes to rescue Kōga and friends, then threatened by Titan and Pallas. Seiya tries to shoot Pallas unchecking a golden arrow but Titan stop Golden Arrow with His Holly Sword. The shot misses despite all his new target thanks to the intervention of Koga. After the departure of Pallas and Titan, Seiya goes his way with his companions.

Pallas Castle Gate
Following the destruction of the Gate of Time, Seiya enters Pallas' castle with Athena and other Saints. Along the way, the group encounters Europa, which takes a perverse pleasure in ridiculing. Ulcerated Seiya engages in combat but his friends bring him back to reason. After the departure of Pallasite, the Saints are faced with four roads, one leading to Pallas. The group decides to split up to take different paths. Seiya chooses to stay with the remaining Gold Saints to protect Saori. In doing so, he takes the road Vanahemir

Battle in Pallas' Castle
Gallia interrupts the two Gemini Saints and strikes a lethal blow to Paradox. After dealing with Paradox, Gallia turns her attention to Athena and the Gold Saints, easily deflecting all their attacks until she is forced to reveal her Photontector by Aries Kiki's Stardust Revolution. Meanwhile, the other three groups figure out the meaning of the endless path, figuring that someone has trapped them in. As Seiya's attacks are easily deflected, Gallia is about to kill Him, but informs her to stand back, with Gallia coldly responding with her loyalty belonging to someone else. However, Integra and Paradox combine their Cosmo, and destroy Europa's trick with the Another Dimension, allowing the other groups to reach the battlefield. However, Paradox succumbs to her wounds and dies in Integra's arms, fulfilling her destiny as the Gemini Gold Saint

Fight Against Hyperion
Athena and the remaining Gold saints make to Pallas' Chamber where they are intercepted by Great Sword Hyperion. His power is such that the combined efforts of Seiya,Harbinger and Shiryu are easily cast aside. Fudo, Kiki, and Shiryu decide to face off against Hyperion, allowing Athena, Seiya, and Harbinger to move forward. Hyperion's Destructiontector and Destruction Slash greatsword prove too powerful for the three Gold Saints' attacks on their own. In a final show of strength, they combine their Cosmo knowing that they may perish because of the vast cosmo needed to unleash the forbidden attack: Athena Exclamation. The Saints and Pallasites including, Shiryu's son Ryuho throughout Pallasvelda react to the outpouring of Cosmo, and as the Destruction Slash greatsword is destroyed, the three Gold Saints' Cosmos vanish along with their bodies. Seiya is shown to be visibly shaken, shedding tears after feeling his fellow Saint's cosmo dissapear. He then reaffirms that he must protect Athena while they head towards Pallas, even at the cost of his own life.

Techniques

 * Pegasus Ryūsei Ken : (ペガサス流星拳, Pegasus Meteor Fist): The Pegasus Saint's signature technique. Seiya concentrates cosmos in his hands and weaves the stars of the Pegasus constellation, and fires punches capable of hitting the enemy hundreds of times per second at a distance. After achieving the seventh sense and becoming the Sagittiarus Gold Saint, Seiya is able to unleash millions of faster-than-light speed punches (depending on cosmo, can possibly be even greater) at his enemies,  becoming a radiant fury of light. Seiya is also capable of using kicks to perform this technique, though it is not shown or used in this fashion in the era of Omega.
 * Atomic Thunderbolt (atomikku sandāboruto): Seiya inherits this techhnique in the 2nd season. Using it in the same fashion as his Pegasus Meteor Fist, Seiya unleashes a devastating stream of golden light at his foes. This technique has been used by the former Sagittarius Gold Saint, Aiolos, who has been remembered for his integrity towards justice and his loyalty to Athena. This technique is famous for its faster-than-light punches.
