I can't find my favorite childhood anime that was shown on Cartoon Network
back in the '90s.

The characters looked similar to Dragon Ball's, so it was probably a Japanese
Toonami show. The hero is a warrior who has a magical silver box which when
opens, some kind of a red armor fits on his arms and legs and gives him super
fighting powers.

Also, this wasn't a cyborg show or space related show. Plus, the characters
were only humans.

I have searched everywhere possible, copied all titles I found into Google
Image trying to find an image that would lead me to the name of the anime for
3 days but no success.

Appreciate your help.

saint-seiya
Anime in '90s where the main character transforms into red armor with a magical silver box


Sounds kind of like [Ronin
Warriors](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ronin_Warriors) and the red armor guy
is named [Ryo](http://roninwarriors.wikia.com/wiki/Ryo_of_the_Wildfire)

It sounds like [**Saint Seiya**](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Seiya)
(a.k.a. _Knights of the Zodiac_ in NA).
