Viewed by the anime community as the male-counterparts to Sailor Moon, Saint Seiya never caught on in the States but is extremely popular in Japan and Spanish speaking countries, particularly Brazil.  

Apparently, the manga series' current home, Weekly Shōnen Champion has major plans to reveal, which will be announced in the magazine's spinoff publication, Monthly Champion RED magazine this August.  

In recent months, there have been a number of Saint Seiya projects announced and teased so the August issue of RED could contain new information on any of these.  Last August, Toei and Netflix revealed plans for a 12-episode CGI series and this February, the show's first teaser poster was revealed.  In addition, plans for a big-budget, live-action Saint Seiya adaptation were also revealed last May.  

The current manga series from Kurumada just recently ended so the next installment could also be what's announced in 2 months.  

Keep it locked to Anime Mojo to see what's ultimately unveiled in Monthly Champion RED.
