Toei owns the rights to all Seiya-related anime except for Lost Canvas for some reason that I don't understand.

tl;dr it's Dragonball Z but not stupid

Longform answer:
It's a series about these warriors who train to tap into a certain energy inside of themselves called Cosmos which gives them superhuman fighting abilities, which is then amplified by the armor they wear. There are three tiers depending on level of mastery and armor. Bronze is the weakest, then Silver, then Gold. Above even Gold is "God" which is generally not an attainable status except for Gods. Every god has their own warriors, but the warriors and their armor have different names depending on the god they work for.

Athena (the girl in the picture above) has Saints who use Cloths. Hades has Spectres who use Surplices. Poseidon has Marinas who use Scales.

Anyway, the series follows around 5 Saints as they fight various people from all over the place, against Hades, Poseidon, and even other Saints with ideological differences.

Nah.

It loses all the goofy shit, the action sequences are great, fights start and end quickly and the story keeps progressing to the next opponent. The fighting relative powers are also more logically consistent, so you don't end up with dudes that can blow up the planet being killed by a common rifle.

yeah they only take 15 episodes of meaningless shit and endless talks and emo moments to get to the big bad guy, be defeated by him and then win with typical shonen asspulls.

You can't say saint seiya is better than dbz, they're both equally terrible and great in their own way, but mostly terrible.

Lost canvas is the only good thing to come out of the series.

I'm really happy about this, Netflix has been showing a lot interest in both anime and Asian dramas lately. Hopefully this remake doesn't suck with it being CGI and all.

That's not true. It takes 15 episodes to get to the big bad, but the shit that happens along the way is actually important. People actually fight and get defeated. The average fight with a dude starts and ends in only 2 episodes. The end result is almost always death to the loser. Additionally, the different characters typically split up to engage opponents on multiple fronts at once so it's not like you've got one guy that's just the star of the show the whole time.
