Saint Seiya: Knights of the Zodiac Story Overview:
The anime will cover the first story arc which composes the Galaxian Wars and the Black Saints.Netflix describes the story as follows:
“Knights of the Zodiac: Saint Seiya follows modern day adventures of young warriors called ‘Knights’, who are sworn protectors of the reincarnated Greek goddess Athena. Each Knights wears a powerful armor based on their chosen zodiac constellation, and are called Knights of the Zodiac. They aid Athena in her battle against powerful Olympian gods who are bent on destroying the humankind.”
Is It Newcomer Friendly?
Obviously, the answer to that is Yes. This is the manga that started it all. The Knights of the Zodiac translation is fine enough on the whole. While Viz's original print release is now highly out-of-print, with some volumes going for way too much now on the secondhand market, it is fully available digitally for $6.99/volume, which is a great price, and sometimes goes on sale. This is the only way to legally experience the entire Saint Seiya story from start to finish, so if you're fine with reading manga digitally, then this is the way to go.
