I was disappointed that Ryuuga got his sight back too, but was okay with it after realizing that Hakana lost her sight. As long as some price is paid.

Anyway, a lot of flashbacks this time, but it told the much needed back story for the series. We finally know how all the pieces of the puzzle ended up where they were, and they even crammed some backstory for Rian in there too. I don't quite remember what she said, but she wasn't initially planning on being a Makai Priest, right?

At least Takeru is still missing a hand.

Edit:
If you think about it, Priest Burai is kind of chicken shit. While it's not his fault, Hakana's "death" happened in something he was personally involved in. He doesn't even bother to tell Ryuuga that or give him the details of his mother's death. Or what she died for. He just makes it sound like she died suddenly from natural causes or an accident or something.

Wow, I totally missed the part where Tousei explains that his mother was a former Makai Priest. That explains a lot.

As I probably mentioned numerous times since right after the ep aired, I either wanted Ryuuga to regain his sight after his speech (end of last ep) or at the final ep of the show. What happened felt both a bit weird and anticlimactic. Nonetheless, AT LEAST there was some price to be paid.

Hey Aguri, when are you going to fix your bow? You will be needing that soon.

The story we got was great and it resolves pretty much everything. I enjoyed that the why Ryuuga acted in such a hostile way to Burai in ep 1 was explained (still I do find it weird that Ryuuga seemed to forget about it afterwards).

Burai, could you please look a bit less depressing and that your back prevents you from moving?

Overall, spontaneous eye-healing aside, this was a good episode.

Looks like Enhou will be done for next time. Based on the ep's title however, "Justice", I do wonder if she will snap out of the Horror's control and pull off a surprise attack on Tousei or something.

Another pretty good episode

Compared to the hostility at the beginning of the show, it shows how much Ryuuga has matured by not getting angry at Burai for directly involved in his mother's disappearance and even thanked Burai for what he'd done. Burai's methods may not be the best, but his training made him Garo. He was able to keep his promise to his mother. If he didn't become Garo, his mother's endurance of captivity would be all for naught.

Now we have most of the back story pieces in place

And yeah, at least the magically restored eyesight has some tradeoff

They still haven't explained why Garo lost it's golden brilliance... or did I miss that part?

Burai's kinda a dick... How can he not tell Ryuuga why/how his mom died?

Sonshi embraced his Madou Horror self pretty quickly. Does that mean he's rather weak-willed, considering how Enhou didn't completely give in to the dark side that easily?

Yeah, I noticed that too. Sonshi does seem like he's more brawn than brains though.

Hakana has her reasons, but it's amazing how everyone else didn't age in 15 years!

So Burai didn't tell Ryuuga that his mom was dead until after he got the Garo armor? That's like 10 years! What a dick!

Aguri looks like he just smelled a fart or something.

Here's a simple question. Why did the red girl tried to take Rian trapped in that room if she was Ryuga's mother?

About that, I think it's just the room that has it's own will and that she just warned her about that.

To be honest, I almost cried in this episode when Hakana gave up her eyesight to restore Ryuga's eyes. That was one heartfelt moment for me.

Seems like... Enhou is going to die in the next episode :D

The mother's love for her son was a touching part I agree. Made me teary eyed. But then, just like what Luna said about Ryuuga regaining his sight after scenario... sigh... what the f... I'd rather see Ryuuga gaining temporary vision while in Garo armor and had to rely on his other senses when in normal mode. It'll make him more bad-ass. Oh well, I'm gonna blame the story/script writer/s instead. The hell with you killing the moment. @_@

I am asking myself the same question. Are they going to explain this or do we have to buy just what we have?

i would say it as to do something with kouga... maybe he sacrificed it in a big fight or something like that and vanished in another world. maybe we'll get the answer in the next garo movie.

it was a really sad episode... but the part with the eyes restoring... could be a bit more dramatic...

And Hakana can just easily escape with Burai......oh well. That restoration is kinda hurried, but nevertheless we got a teary-eyed scene here.

wow, next episode is Rian's turn to don the red. Hot already

Because it got the new girl Rian, the room doesn't need Hakana anymore
