Episode 5: I'm liking Raikou's developments and seeing more with him. Yasusuke's development was amazing and I felt really bad for him but I definitely see him maybe taking the place as my favorite like Alfonso did last season. Still him becoming a thief and learning that the ones in charge are corrupt and becoming like the woman he loved I definitely enjoy that in his character. I wish the armor looked better but that was definitely a better episode, not where I want it to be but I think it's getting there, so I'm hoping for more later.

Really hoping this show picks up soon, because right now the previous anime at its worst was considerably better than this.
I do like the referencing of Japanese folklore, but the characters (save for Seimei, who doesn't feel like she fits a Garo series though) are so bland I can't bring myself to care about any of it.

Seimei is the character I can't stand right now. I like Raikou but still there isn't much here. At this rate I wish they continued with the Last series characters.

Episode 6: Well this was a better episode but still pretty mediocre. Though I enjoyed the whole talk about strength and weakness in it. I thought the huge Horror was taken down way too easily that there could have been more time for fighting than the random one off character story. It's good to see that Hakamadare has taken off pretty well as a thief with his own bandits. I am more intrigued in that storyline. Seimei had some better moments here too. I hope the storytelling and action improve because I am only watching this because it's called GARO, well I have hope that it gets better sooner rather than later.

Episode 7: Probably the best episode of the season and it's actually a good episode not just above Mediocre, I was really surprised at it. As much as Seimei's flaws annoy the crap out of me I really enjoyed this episode because of how much we learned about her, and how strong her spirit was to help save her mother after she was turned into a horror. That was really cool with turning her into a Madou Tool. Also a much better battle scene against something that put up a fight against Raikou. I do also like how caring Raikou is. Well still it needs to keep going up from here, I can't wait for more as long as it continues like this.

The fights in Crimson Moon have been pretty lackluster and anticlimactic I hope it improves in that aspect soon. Episode 8 looks like it might have backstory for Raikou which will be good.

Episode 7 was the best so far, I feel.
Seimei still annoys me, and I was hoping after the other priest is able to remove the seal on Raikou, that he would be able to summon the armor freely and we'd have more Zaruba. Then she goes and seals everything again. I like Raikou, but would prefer to see him in a more "conventional" Garo story. Also, was that a Grou Dragon? That's a hell of a pull from the things in Garo lore. I appreciated it when Garo will pull out things like that, which you almost forget about. |

Are there any more Makai knights in this new one than just Garo?

Episode 8: This was even better than the last episode! It was great and sad to learn about Raikou's past. I felt really bad for him that because the Emperor or whoever was in charge wanted more power had to kick Raikou and his Mother out of the country. I think the biggest thing was that Raikou never had amnesia or anything he knew who he was the whole time and seeing his brother made him want to be a Makai Knight even more. I hope we get to see more of Raikou and Yorinobu together as brothers. Seimei's Chariot is pretty kick ass again and I like that Seimei and Raikou took down the horror together. Kintoki even was pretty good and definitely want to know more about him since he seems to be a lot older than he looks. Well I think they finally hit their stride with this show right now, so I can finally say I'm looking forward to the next episode and can't wait for more. I do hope we get more Makai Knights though, I think an ally or rival to Raikou I think would be pretty interesting for the show, and that we had 3 pretty fast in the last anime makes me wonder if we are getting another one or not here. It would be a shock to have just 1 Makai Knight in a GARO series though. Well like I said this was a great episode for Raikou, I definitely love him more as a character and I can't wait for more this show now.

Episode 9: Well this show has finally reached it's stride of watchable and good episodes now. I enjoyed seeing Seimei's past and how far she is willing to go to save Raikou. She has become a much better character lately and that she is willing to keep the darkness in her to save Raikou I like a lot and her should what her character is, makes up for a lot of what I didn't like about her in the first place anyways. I like how the had the big fight in the beginning of the episode and then dealt with more of the character stuff the rest of the episode rather than the other way around. I think they have figured out their strengths and running with them more, also they make the Armor look much better too. Dark Raikou was rather fun with what he was doing, I would love to see his reaction to what he did when he was filled with the Dark energy. I think this might connect a little to Ryuga's series with his Dark Armor and in this episode with losing the light of the Golden Armor, maybe something happened to the Golden Knight who came before Ryuga like this horror or something like it. Like I was saying fantastic episode for the characters and a possible connection to another GARO series, the creators are doing their job here. Seriously, I have gone from dreading watching this to can't wait for the next episode, sometimes you have to be patient and stick through the hard times to get to the good ones. Well like I said I can't wait for more.
