Saint Seiya: Ougon Densetsu Kanketsu Hen (聖闘士星矢 黄金伝説 完結編, lit. Saint Seiya: Golden Legend - Final Chapter) is a video game adaptation of the shounen manga series Saint Seiya for the Famicom, of which the prequel (Saint Seiya: Ougon Densetsu) saw an official French release on the NES titled Les Chevaliers du Zodiaque: La Légende d'Or. It is a RPG/beat 'em up hybrid that adapts the Twelve Temples arc from the manga, where the Bronze Saints have to save Saori Kido from a fatal injury by finding the Pope, the only one that can heal her. To do this, the Bronze Saints must cross the Twelve Temples of the Zodiac, each one guarded by a Gold Saint. The sections where the player goes to the temple is shown as a side-scrolling beat 'em up and the fights with the Gold Saints are played like a turn-based RPG.
eien86 in this run breezes through all the Gold Saints, discovers the mystery behind the Pope, and saves Saori in record time.

WARNING: There is a high amount of flashing lights during every Gold Saint encounter that is not suitable to those with photosensitivity issues.
There is also a commentary video from the author that explains the mechanics of the game and provides an English translation. This movie, again with the author's commentary, was also featured on Anime Speedruns Fest 2024.
The baseline tab shows the default movie beating the game as fast as possible without any special conditions.
