《聖鬥士星矢 最終聖戰的戰士們》（聖闘士神話 / Soldier Dream）是1989年3月18日上映的「聖鬥士星矢」系列動畫電影第四部，全片長約45分鐘。作為系列作品的重要延伸，這部電影將劇情從原本的聖鬥士與黃金十二宮的對抗，擴展至更宏大的宇宙範疇，融入神話與末世感的元素，展現出更黑暗、緊張的戰鬥氛圍。

故事的核心圍繞著墮天使路西法展開。路西法本是神之子，卻因自身的野心與驕傲墮入地獄，在漫長的沉眠後於現代甦醒。他帶著對人類世界的憎恨與對全宇宙的控制慾望，開始引發一連串全球性的自然災害，使地球陷入前所未有的危機。為了阻止這場災難，守護和平的女神雅典娜·城戶紗織毅然決定以自己的生命為代價，孤身前往路西法的伏魔殿，希望以神血封印這位墮天使，拯救人類和全宇宙。

然而，星矢以及其他青銅聖鬥士得知消息後，也緊隨紗織的腳步前往伏魔殿。在這條救援之路上，他們遭遇了四名強大到連黃金聖鬥士也無法輕易擊敗的敵人——聖魔天使。這四位聖魔天使是路西法的手下，代表墮落與邪惡的力量，他們的出現讓整個聖域陷入空前的危機。電影以不祥之夜的開場描寫，四道邪惡光輝迅速闖入聖域，黃金聖鬥士紛紛倒下，展現出敵人的恐怖與壓迫感，也讓觀眾感受到故事緊迫的張力。在面對這股強大力量時，青銅聖鬥士們初期幾乎無力抵抗，只能眼睜睜看著雅典娜被路西法帶走。面對女神被俘的情勢，星矢與同伴們深知這不僅是拯救雅典娜的戰鬥，更關乎地球與整個宇宙的命運。於是，他們團結一心，展開一場生死決戰。整部電影以戰鬥與勇氣為主軸，描繪青銅聖鬥士們在極端壓力下如何突破自我、發揮潛力，以及對信念與友情的堅守。

電影中不僅有華麗的戰鬥場面，也強調神話色彩與末世感的烘托。路西法作為墮天使的設定，帶有強烈的象徵意義，他的存在不只是力量的挑戰，更象徵傲慢、野心與毀滅的誘惑。而青銅聖鬥士們則承載著正義與勇氣的象徵意義，他們在極度危險的環境下，仍為保護雅典娜和全宇宙而奮戰，呈現出英雄主義與自我犧牲精神。

整體而言，《聖鬥士星矢 最終聖戰的戰士們》在短短45分鐘內，成功地將原作的冒險精神與神話張力結合。不僅延續青銅聖鬥士與黃金聖鬥士之間的戰鬥魅力，也進一步擴展到宇宙級的威脅與挑戰，展現出星矢系列中英雄、友情與信念交織的深刻內涵。電影以激烈而壯觀的戰鬥、跌宕起伏的劇情以及強烈的心理描寫，讓觀眾充分感受到聖鬥士為守護宇宙而不懈奮戰的史詩般震撼。

“Saint Seiya: Warriors of the Final Holy Battle” (聖闘士神話 / Soldier Dream) is the fourth animated film in the Saint Seiya series, released on March 18, 1989, with a runtime of approximately 45 minutes. As a significant extension of the series, the film expands the storyline from the original battles between the Bronze Saints and the Gold Saints of the Twelve Houses to a grander cosmic scale, incorporating mythological elements and apocalyptic tension, resulting in a darker and more intense battle atmosphere.

The story centers on the fallen angel Lucifer. Once a child of the gods, Lucifer fell into hell due to his ambition and pride, and awakens in the modern era after a long slumber. Filled with hatred toward humanity and a desire to dominate the entire universe, he begins to unleash a series of global natural disasters, plunging Earth into unprecedented peril. To stop this catastrophe, the goddess Athena, Saori Kido, bravely decides to risk her life and journeys alone to Lucifer’s fortress, hoping to use her divine blood to seal the fallen angel and save both humanity and the universe.

Upon learning of her mission, Seiya and the other Bronze Saints follow closely behind to the fortress. Along the way, they encounter four immensely powerful foes known as the Saint Demon Angels, so formidable that even the Gold Saints struggle against them. These angels serve Lucifer and embody the forces of corruption and evil, plunging the Sanctuary into an unprecedented crisis. The film opens with a foreboding night, depicting the four evil lights striking the Sanctuary and swiftly defeating the Gold Saints, highlighting the terror and overwhelming power of the adversaries while immersing viewers in the tension of the story.

Initially, the Bronze Saints are nearly powerless against this overwhelming force and can only watch as Athena is taken by Lucifer. Recognizing that the battle is not only about rescuing Athena but also about the fate of Earth and the entire universe, Seiya and his companions unite and launch a life-or-death struggle. The film emphasizes courage and combat, portraying how the Bronze Saints, under extreme pressure, break through their limits, realize their potential, and uphold their faith and friendships.

Beyond the spectacular battles, the movie accentuates mythological and apocalyptic themes. Lucifer, as a fallen angel, carries profound symbolic weight—his presence represents not only a physical challenge but also the allure of pride, ambition, and destruction. Meanwhile, the Bronze Saints symbolize justice and courage, fighting to protect Athena and the universe even in the face of immense danger, exemplifying heroism and self-sacrifice.

Overall, “Saint Seiya: Warriors of the Final Holy Battle” successfully blends the adventurous spirit of the original series with mythological intensity within its brief 45-minute runtime. It not only continues the excitement of the battles between Bronze and Gold Saints but also extends the narrative to a cosmic scale, highlighting themes of heroism, friendship, and faith. Through its intense and grandiose combat sequences, dramatic storyline, and deep psychological portrayal, the film delivers an epic experience that vividly conveys the Saints’ relentless struggle to protect the universe.
