The Saint Seiya Series Review (also known as the Saint Seiya Overview or the Saint Seiya Guidebook) was a 1980s fan-produced guide to the St. Seiya series created by Pat Munson-Siter. It was sold at NOLACon II and was one of the only English-language canon resources available at the time.[1] It later inspired an unofficial RPG system by Jon Lash.[2]

The overview was first published serially in Celluloid Diversions. The September 1988 issue of CD announced that it was finally complete at 120 full pages.[3]
