Garo Makai no Hana 14 released
Wiki: http://wiki.tvnihon.com/wiki/Garo_Makai_no_Hana_14
Looks like they did something with Mayuri's makeup. It looks nice.
Andou Haruka who plays Idora is lovely as usual.
This backstory baffles me. It seems like this series goes through the cycle of characters going "Well, Mayuri's a tool, not a human! Oh shit! No wait. She IS human after all! My bad." Unless I'm misunderstanding it, Mayuri was born a human and they decided to just use her as a tool. And it sounds like it'd be impossible to recreate her if she got destroyed. Do any of the writers consult with each other to make these things consistent?
And her mother's name is Shidou Magi? Does that mean Shidou's her dad or something?
Garo's writing is so nickpickable. Mayuri has to die! No wait, Raiga will save her. Oh, but it cost him some of his life, which is meaningless since people cut their life spans short all the time. I mean, it's like the plots are written for a cartoon or something.

Re: Garo Makai no Hana 14 released
This episode was a little confusing... My initial impression, and this is just from the visuals, was that Shidou Magi is Mayuri. It was her powerful will and human heart that was able to keep the Horror from possessing the baby. And once they realized this, they resurrected her as a tool. I don't know why they would make the baby a tool without proof that she had her Mother's gifts, unless they are going to give us more back-story showing that down the road.
However with a little more mulling it is more probable that despite being saved by her Mother, she is still tainted by the circumstances of her birth so they had no qualms about turning her into a tool. Also the writers probably felt that the angle of turning an orphaned child into a tool would in turn strengthen Raiga's argument that Mayuri is in fact human, and add a nice amount of melodrama too.
I got the feeling that Shidou was probably her Grandfather, because there was distance in their interactions, and he didn't seem to beat himself up too badly for thinking of Mayuri as a tool. Perhaps the shadowy figure watching Mayuri is her father?
Still there seem to be more questions with each passing episode, and they have obviously decided to be long in giving the audience the answers.

Re: Garo Makai no Hana 14 released
Maybe it was easier to call Mayuri a tool to curtail any attempt of people treating her as a human so she wouldn't become a Horror. Also Mayuri's eyes didn't have that unnatural blue tint in them compared to the previous episodes.

Re: Garo Makai no Hana 14 released
a confusing episode with its random flashes of imagery (horror, flower, and fish?). also we get an explanation to an ending theme sequence with the cookie/cracker things. speaking of that, i think the editors screwed up by showing the cookie/cracker things in an ending theme sequence before introducing them in the show itself.

Re: Garo Makai no Hana 14 released
Up until now I was worried that she's the organic version of an android or golem. Very relieved she isn't.
There's still one thing that bothers me. She's called Yuri gata, which insinuates there are other models/types. Makes me wonder what the others types could be.

There are quite a few Magou in Makai Senki and Red Requiem. It seems to be a term for any sort of bio-mechanical tool the priests use.

No wonder she looks familiar. She was at Gouraigan. Damn man. That cleavages. Why woman horror always hot? ( except some grannies and milfs)

Average episode. It's nice to see some of Mayuri's history, but kind of bland otherwise.

Re: Garo Makai no Hana 14 released
This episode got me confused as hell. Nice to see backstory for her but I'm still confused on if she's a human being or not. And did she really die? Lol...Looks like she did in order to give Raiga something to do. Weird. This show has had some lackluster episodes lately.

Re: Garo Makai no Hana 14 released
Nice that they're finally getting on with the plot. Though I suppose the earlier episodes were meant to develop Mayuri's character.
Actually so far the plot of this series seems rather simple. Hopefully we'll get a curve ball when we finally meet the mastermind behind Eiris' release.

No, Mayuri's mother is named Shidou Magi. They said so in the episode itself. Different people can have the same name!
