** Only one Silver Saint was adapted: Sagitta Ptolemy, the final knight that cursed Saori, making the heroes rush through the twelve houses. In the original manga and anime, the Pope sends [[SortingAlgorithmOfEvil more and more]] of them as assassins to kill Saori and the Bronze Saints before they eventually decide to fight back and take the battle to Sanctuary, and two Silver Saints (Marin and Shaina) are relevant to [[TheHero Seiya's]] backstory and progress through the Sanctuary; not to mention Shun wanted to avenge his master Deidalos's death at the hands of Virgo Aphrodite.
** Downplayed with Libra Dorko, Shiryu's OldMaster in the source material. He is not mentioned at all in the film, yet is implied Shiryu learned everything [[TheSmartGuy he knows about the Sanctuary and his techniques]] through him.

** None of the Bronze Saints backgrounds are adapted beyond them being trained by the Mitsumasa Kido organization for Saori' protection, as she is the reincarnation of Athena. Likewise, Saori is [[AdaptationalNiceGuy changed considerably]] to be turned into a NaiveNewcomer AudienceSurrogate for newcomers in the franchise. Saori likewise instead of remaining in the entrance of the temple unconscious and slowly dying, goes ''with'' the Bronze Saints through the Sanctuary.
** Alongside this, [[AdaptedOut due to the exclusion of multiple characters]], the journey through Sanctuary is shorter as many of the Gold Saints [[AdaptationalHeroism react differently to a group of knights going with a young girl]] through the temple. While core scenes are adapted, others like the journey through the Gemini house, Ikki's conflict with Shaka Virgo or the duel between Shun and Aphrodite Piscis are cut.
** The final confrontation is straight up different from the source material, more akin of a pop-corn movie. In the source material [[spoiler: Saga Gemini reveals himself to Seiya in the final hour before Saori's eventual death, showing his evil personality and trashing the floor with Seiya and then Ikki. In the movie, feeling cornered, Saga kills Piscis Aphrodite and reveals himself to everyone, awakening multiple machines and becoming a giant monster]] for Seiya and Saori to defeat together.
