Garo Yami wo Terasu Mono 24 released

[MissTokuLover]

I thoroughly enjoyed this season, sure it still has its flaws but overall I enjoyed it, probably more than most people who are fans of the previous seasons. In the beginning, I thought the new characters were a bit dry and 1-dimensional, but as the series progressed, we got to see them grow and develope and I really grew to like them eventually.
The CGI in this series was pretty good overall, but used a bit too excessively though, the writing was good for the most part I thought.

I'd wondered the same thing, lol. I keep questioning how powerful of a Makai Priest Rian really is after seeing her get her ass whooped in pretty much every fight scene she was in. Even after she had that little training montage in the forest and gaining the ability to summon Rago after discovering Enhou was a Mado Horror, she was still useless besides the fact that she did help the Knights defeat Zedom.

Rian is a Makai Priest, I think some people tend to forget that Makai Priests specialise in magic, not physical combat...sure Rian may not be all that strong in physical combat, but she's a powerful magician, something that she has demonstrated numerous times throughout the series. So I'm not surprised that she was able to wipe the memories of the people of Volcity, she has used that mind-wiping magic numerous times. Magic and physical combat are 2 different capabilities, I think in terms of magic, that's the area where Rian's abilities really excel, I think she does not lose to Jabi at all.

Don't forget that there is 1 more episode guys, it aired last night, now we just have to wait for the subs.

To be fair, most of the time, the knights also have a hard time defeating horrors without their armours. And they are supposed to be superior in physical combat, plus their soul metal weapons.

Also, I thought Rian handled herself fairly well in the few fight scenes she had (vs Enhou in 16 and 20, even Rivera in ep12). Though I find it a pity she didn't get to use Lago at all. Burai may have given it to her, but he was pretty much hogging him throughout the end of the series.

However, Rian didn't seem to play much of a role in the last few fights. She practically sat out the battle against Rivera, drove a car while the rest were fighting Sonshi, and against Zedom, I only remember her posing with her pathetic pistol (and doing little else, even that part about spraying madou water seemed forced, like it was there for the sake of giving her something to contribute).

overall a good show and worthy of Garo series. I hope they will improve in the next series.

I do not mind much about the CGI, the out-of-suit fighting compensates for it.

for that I moment, I felt like watching final fantasy animated.. typical role of magician playing more of supporting role to the knights

to be fair, the horror in this series are Madou which seem to be stronger than the Ingas. This may make Rian (and also the knights) appears to be weaker than their counterparts in the previous series.

I think Rian deserves the shots at the horror Tousei... There should be at least one more shot for her father!

Well, not so many times, and not so many powerful... I mean, I think that, just in Tougen no fue, they did more and more powerful spells that Rian in the whole season. And, from those that she did, most of them were really lame. That water at the end was hilarious.

As I joked with a friend, Tougen no fue was like Amemiya watching Yami wo terasu mono and thinking "Oh man, those makai priests are awful... Let's do justice to them".

I just don't see her equal to Jabi, I see them at completely different levels, being Jabi an expert a Rian a noob.

I hope it is never, ever explained what happened to Kouga and them. Ever. Not one snippet. Just to infuriate people.

LMAO. Combine the Yami and original cast within the upcoming ZERO spin-off, only to exclude Kouga and the explanation of his dissapearance. Then make a Yami movie with the combined cast to merge the two universes together with the exception of Kouga.

You wanna know what really happened to Kouga? He retired to play Yu-Gi-Oh!

wiping people's memories, restoring someone's voice, assuming the form of another with uncanny precision...if those spells are what you call "lame", then I don't know what you people consider "powerful".

I think her lack of powerful spells is due to her using her pistol all the time. I mean she uses it more than her brush.

Rian's attempts at shooting Mado Horrors in the series had always proved ineffective. Yet it just took a number of shots to kill Tousei at the end, who was just a regular Inga Horror. I guess this confirms that her revolver just wasn't powerful enough which made her look weaker. Then again, Aguri was frustrated that his bow and arrow couldn't pierce Mado Horrors either which also made him look weak. Basically they both weren't ready for the higher-level Horrors.

Reminds me of Dragon Ball Z (Tien, Yamcha, Krillin etc.) and Bleach characters (Chad, Uryu, Orihime) who seemed to have potential at first but then eventually become irrelevant no matter how much they train and gain new abilities. It's like how the Red Ranger always gets the cool power-ups, lol.

Another Garo series is over. I really tried to like it, and with new characters I was excited. But looking at this series and the past Garo it just does not have those fine little details. Today I started a random Garo Makai Senki ep and made my co-worker stay 17 minutes longer then he should have because he was hooked (amid uttering 'that's - up, that's - up'). It's those details that are missing in this series. The stories don't even grab you emotionally and drag you in. I felt more oh-okay at a scene that was supposed to be emotional then anything else.

But I can't say I downright hated it, probably expected them to much to keep up with the hard work like they did before.

I think everyone else has pretty much said the same thing over the last fight so no need to say it aigan.

[abazigal]

I find I actually preferred this season of Garo over the previous 2. I found Makai Senki downright boring. Simply fast-forwarded to the end and couldn't bring myself to watch the initial episodes.

The original Kouga was too perfect. He never made mistakes. He always made the right call. After all while, it got boring.

Here, you have 3 young, immature knights who demonstrate how they have progressed and matured throughout the series to become better persons. Tell me you weren't rooting for Ryuga in ep19 when he was racing for his sword despite being blind.

Kouga wasn't perfect. He had people helping him if you didn't notice. Even at that time when he was trying to save Kaoru by getting that fruit. He was going to die but Rei saved him.

Wiping people's memories: Even the makai knights can do that with a tool. The watchdogs do it all the time. Not a big deal in Garo, mostly everyone can do that.

Restoring someone's voice: I would rather say unlock another spell. Not very impressive for me.

Assuming the form of another with uncanny precision: Yes, that Puar thing is good.

But, for example, remember the Sigma vs Jabi battle in Makai Senki. That wasn't physical, all with magic. Do you really think that Rian could to all that stuff?

She'll probably get One Hit KO if she fought in a battle like that.
