Saban to Adapt Garo into New American Series

Post by Mxylv »

Well, this is interesting.

"Earlier today, Haim Saban, the man behind Power Rangers and a few other one-time things that didn't work out, has officially announced that he will be taking footage from the Hyper Action Midnight Drama series, Garo, for an entirely new American production. As you probably don't know, Power Rangers actually originated as [skipping over all the stuff about Sentai], making Garo the first non-Toei series to be adapted for the modern American audience.

Saban has also officially revealed the name for the new series: Wolf Knight--appropriate enough, as the title character of the original series is just this. Unlike Power Rangers, where new titles are created just a few years after their Japanese counterparts are released, Saban reports that no series would be skipped over in order to maintain the world-building.

Saban has not yet given the titles of each individual season, but rumors are circulating that the counterpart of Makai Senki will be dubbed Fanged Fury. He has also confirmed that the main character will “likely” be a teenage American white male, but beyond that he has not said anything further on the casting, characters or intended audience."

I'm outraged. Localizations always ruin everything.

I'm not even going to read the article, I'd rather just not know.

The funny thing is that I've always thought about that XD. I mean, we know there should be makai knights all around the world, so it would be an interesting take to leave another country make a Garo series.

So is this legitimate, or just another April Fool's Day joke?

If I’d rolled my eyes any harder, they would be stuck looking at my brain. 🙄
I’m the one nightmares are afraid of.
