SEIYA started out in 1986 as a manga by Masami Kurumada and published
in SHONEN JUMP, and have been reprinted in book form by Shonen as
well. In October of 1986 SEIYA showed up on Japanese TV as an animated
series produced by Toei Doga (a subsidary of Toei Animation -- Toei Doga). Originally intended to have a run of 52 or so episodes,
it proved so popular that it went to 73 episodes before ending -- and was
immediately followed by a second season of the series.
