Pegasus Fantasy

"Pegasus Fantasy" (ペガサス幻想（ファンタジー）, Pegasasu Fantajī) is a song by Japanese metal band Make-Up. Serving as the band's fourth major release single, "Pegasus Fantasy" and its B-side, "Blue Forever" (永遠ブルー, Eien Burū), were used as the opening and ending theme songs for the first half of the original Saint Seiya anime. "Pegasus Fantasy" became Make-Up's most successful release, and they have re-released the song several times since its initial release in 1986. After releasing a "21st century ver." on their mini-album The Voice from Yesterday, Make-Up released a new version of the song in 2012, subtitled "Version Omega", which features Shoko Nakagawa, the voice actress for Athena, on guest vocals and is used as the opening theme song for the re-imagined Saint Seiya Omega anime. "Pegasus Fantasy Version Omega" reached number 29 on the Oricon's weekly rankings. Masami Kurumada, the author of the Saint Seiya manga, has included "Pegasus Fantasy" in the manga, with a background character seen singing it. It also appeared in Taiko no Tatsujin: Drum 'n' Fun!.
