However, looking up season 3 on wikipedia, it says set in a alternate universe, so I'm not sure. I'll have to rewatch Makai Retsuden to see if I might have misinterpreted something. Anyway, about Vanishing Line, saw it yesterday and definitely liked it. Unlike the previous two anime series, the first episode has me hooked and cant wait to see more. 10/10 for badass Zaruba bike.

Maybe... However, the last episode of Makai Retsuden/Tales had a cameo by Eyrith who has time manipulating powers which allowed her to take Rekka and Rian. This would suggest that either a) Rekka and Rian are from different points of the same timeline or b) one of them is from an alternate timeline that branched off the original timeline. I would think a) is more plausible as from the short amount of time that we saw Eyrith's powers in Makai no Hana, her powers manipulated the timeline she is in (given the fact that she was responsible for Kaoru and Kouga's disappearances in the past).

I watched this, the animation seriously was insane. I am not sure if they will be able to keep it up for the whole runtime though, feel like it was a good idea to spend a lot of money on the premiere though. gets a lot of people hooked right in.

1. Notice how never even once in yamo o terasu mono and gold storm do they mention the time limit for makai armor nor do we see the timer that was present in almost every episode for seajima line. 2. The tower of heroic spirits doesn't seem to exist in ryuga's world (possibly destroyed in a alternate timeline)

You may be right. I might've missed that part while I was watching it. Quote:
True but b seems to make more sense considering that ryuga's world seems to have some clearly differnt rules:

Was checking when Blood Blockade Battlefront & Beyond's simuldub begins and saw that Funimation just started the simuldub for Vanishing Line today. It had been a while since I've watched Garo, so I gave it a shot.
Gotta say, this is one of the best introduction episodes of Garo I've seen. Flashy action, simple explanation of what's happening, creepy rape-y Horror, boobs in the first scene, armor finisher, and for good measure Zaruba's here to be a ring...ON A MOTORCYCLE!. Yep, this is how you start a Garo series. |

Is anyone else still watching? I kinda like this show. The characters are cool, the animation is solid and the plots are interesting to me.
Granted, there's not a whole lot of Garo in it which confuses me a bit, but maybe that's actually one of the show's strengths. We don't need 5 minutes of Garo every episode for things to be cool. Although I wish they would explain the lack of it a bit, like have it as a plot point, Sword either can't control it very long or maybe he hasn't even acquired it yet. I mean he did, but with the series not showing it a whole lot they could've delayed its debut until a certain point. Also, the very few times I watched the actual Garo the armor didn't appear for long in each episode either. |

I watched one episode and didn’t hate it, but wasn’t interested enough to go back. My biggest issue is that the main character came off as a complete douchebag.

I'm still loving this show a lot, but yeah the lack of Garo armour is very odd. I mean the franchise in general has never been big on lengthy armour sequences, but we're six episodes in and I'm not even sure how different Sword's version of the armour is.
Still, the characters are enough to keep me loving it. Sword's a big departure from the usual Garo-archetype which I dig a lot (he's a big 80s style action hero with a heart of gold) and the support characters are all extremely strong as well. Sophie's one of the best non-Makai characters the franchise has had.

Given that Sword is a big, bulky man, maybe doesn't need to use the armor right away until he finishes the horror off.
Also does any other Garo series have more weird horrors than Vanishing Line? I am asking because this series has a black horror (would call it a negro horror but I feel like that would be worse) and a vagina horror with demon titties. |
