Re: Why not Garo?

Post by DevGryphon »

Yami wo Terasu Mono was my first foray into the Garo series. I thought it was kinda boring at first and that the CGI was jarring but I stuck with it. Now that the series is over for now, I'm going to watch the rest of the series and movies.

Its funny you posted this because I started watching Garo (first series) and I'm on episode 21. I like Garo, its not as. Flashy as SS or KR and it's sexual moments are extremely disturbing but it's got something going for it. Everything GARO related subbed by you guys and gals I plan to watch. I want to know why. Kouga and crew don't appear in In the One who Shines in the Darkness third show. I'm going through the series in order.

Eversince i watched the very first episode of Garo it got me hooked instantly.. I've been recommending it to my friends to watch and got them hooked on to it as well. They've been wondering though how come they haven't heard of this series if it's this good and i have been asking myself the same question still

Same with me! Except I never thought it was boring. I just thought the CGI fights were stupid (after watching so much Sentai and Kamen Rider) but then I eventually got used to it as I kept watching. I just finished Yami wo Terasu Mono and now I'm starting the original GARO series.

I have one question though; did the movies all come out one after another once the series had ended? Or was it like Super Sentai / Kamen Rider where the movies have a placement and continuity. For example, should I finish the original GARO series first, and then watch the "Byakuya no Maju", "RED REQUIEM", and "Ankoku Kishi Gaiden" in that order? Or did some of those movies take place between certain episodes? The movies all look really awesome but I don't want to watch them at the wrong time or too early. Same question goes for MAKAISENKI and the "Togen no Fue" movie.

I'm still new to GARO and I'm absolutely lovin' it so far. I've been telling all my friends about it. It's way better than Super Sentai and Kamen Rider but I still love them too. Watching each episode of GARO is like watching a mini Jet-Li movie, lol.

Okay, so all the movies do take place after the end of the series. Thanks for clarifying. Also, I'm wondering why no one has subbed the Sokoku no Maryu movie yet.

Oh okay. I actually didn't know it was still that new. I was just wondering.

Well, Kiba, chronologically speaking, should go after season 1, isn't it? Though I recommend to see it after Red Requiem, as you said.

Well I just finished Yami no Terasu Mono in two sittings... Sorry it took me so long to take the jump. Currently the rest is dld as I type this.

Besides - since I don't know where to put that question, I might put it here. In episode 24 of Yami [...] it said end of chapter Volcitiy. So the story for Ryuga isn't complete and we get more Ryuga action? How do they achieve such things, because he is now FULL ON Garo with so much gold and light *slightyl confused*

Nah, I doubt we'll see more of Yami. Honestly, that's the way all the Garo series end. A lot of people were confused by the ending of the first series, since they didn't realize it was called the Arc of the Black Knight or whatever it was and thought it was the name of an upcoming sequel, myself included.

It just makes the story sound more epic when it sounds like a chapter in an ongoing legend, which is a big theme in Garo.

Damn, the entire Yami series in just two sittings?! That's amazing. Props to you. I wished I could finish any series that fast. I've told my friends, "I have a lot of Super Sentai, Kamen Rider and GARO series downloaded but I haven't really started any of them yet besides Gokaiger and GARO. I wished there was a Hyperbolic Time Chamber so I could just go in there and use up an entire year to watch every show, then come out and only one day had passed, LOL".

They could totally continue Ryuga's story with Rian if they really wanted to. I guess we'll see what happens with this new upcoming ZERO series. Maybe Ryuga will end up being in it as well.
