Masami Kurumada est un créateur de manga japonais réputé pour sa spécialisation dans les récits de combat mettant en scène des personnages bishōnen et mahō shōnen. Ses protagonistes masculins incarnent l'archétype du « véritable homme », qui aspire à la perfection du courage et de la virilité par le sacrifice, l'altruisme et l'héroïsme authentique. Les personnages de ses œuvres reflètent fréquemment les idéaux classiques et modernes de la masculinité de la société. Le style distinctif de Kurumada et son focalisation sur ces archétypes en font une figure significative dans le genre du manga de combat.
Ayant miraculeusement survécu à leur combat contre les Spectres, Tenma, Dohko et Shion rentrent au sanctuaire. Pendant ce temps, en 1990, suite à son terrible combat contre Hadès, Seiya est inconscient. Shun, Chevalier d’Andromède, et Saori/Athéna décident de consulter la Déesse de la Lune, Artémis, qui pourra peut-être guérir ses blessures. Ils se rendent donc dans l’Olympe.

In the Hall of Judgment, their souls are weighed by the Specter René. And in the prisons beyond, they face the three-headed dog Cerberus and the Specter Pharaoh. But still more horrors await them in the endless dungeons of the underworld. Why has Orpheus, the legendary Silver Knight who vanished off the face of the earth, reappeared as a loyal servant of Hades? And what part will the Bronze Knights play in the schemes of Lady Pandora? Only the power of the eighth sense can guide Seiya and his friends through the realms of ultimate darkness!

Now, to face Hades in his true form, the Knights must pass beyond the Wall of Lamentation, which only gods can cross, and find the paradise of Elysium. Such a quest is beyond the power of ordinary mortals, but if Seiya and his friends can summon the 12 Gold Cloths, they can work miracles even in the darkest depths of the Underworld!
