I think this episode was a letdown and misdirected as hell. Yasumasa's death was not well done, you didn't feel anything, even for Yasusuke. And the fight was portrayed on a very weird way.
First they fight with the armor (and when i say fight I mean run one after another), and then they have another fight without armor. If that's not anticlimatic enough, the animation is just way below what they gave us with the somewhat equivalent fight from the previous season (Alfonso vs León), which was gorgeous.
Aside from that, they repeat the "Kaguya comes in the middle of the battle and blabla" that they've done three times in a row if I'm correct.
agree with Dragonfan.
Raikou & Yasusuke are a good chara & have many potential to be better.
but seems the story never make it there. completely a let down after what we have from Honoou no Kokuin where Alfonso & Leon fight+ story are more meaningful and awesome.
later on this Garo kinda let down i think. too many dialog but kinda low meaning. i like the animation & armor, but i prefer better story. not just repeatance of MOTW thing + draaaaaaagy problems which i think can be solved faster
