Quick recap

Seiya is an orphan who fights for cash on the streets and searches for his sister Patricia, kidnapped when he was a kid. During a fight, a blue Cosmo bursts out of him. Millionaire Alman Kido finds him and tells him he is destined to be the Pegasus Knight and protect Sienna, Kido's adopted daughter and Athena's incarnation. Seiya trains with Marin, the Eagle Knight. Kido's ex-wife, Vander Guraad, wants Sienna dead before her power awakens. Kido sacrifices himself in an explosion to stop Guraad, and Sienna is captured. Seiya takes on Cassios and Nero, the Phoenix Knight, and helps Sienna control Athena's power. In the end, they set off to find Patricia.
