Episode 3's raw is up and it's a good one. This week we get to see not only a lot more of Aguri, but also the debut of his armored form: Gai. There's a lot more teamwork in this one, too, as Team Burai finally begins working together on a mission (well, kinda - more like three of them work together while one gets stuck under a big CGI blob monster ) and we get to see some of their cool new Makai gear. We also get the answers to some big questions:
Just how awesome is Takeru? How squeaky can Rian's voice get? Which Makai Knight do you never want to play billiards with? How much nudity is actually too much for Garo? (watch this one at work, kids, it'll be fun ) Last edited by Switchblade; 04-20-2013 at 02:09 PM.. |

I like how Rian change his voice when talking to Aguri and Aguri's glasses turns out to be not really ordinary

Does "Garo-tastic" mean fight scenes with naked porn stars? Yeah, this was Garo-tastic.
Takeru is proving to be a really fun character. Plus, Junya Ikeda gets to do some action atuff, that's always good. Aguri is a dick, but I expect that. His plan was a bit overly complex, but still awesome. |

You know, while I'm really liking the writing, acting, and choreography on display so far, I have a hard time getting over the lack of practical armor. I'm really hoping that some actual suits show up at some point, because while this is definitely some of the best CG I've seen in tokusatsu, it still doesn't compare to seeing that glorious armor rendered in real life, and to think that for whatever reason, they can't do that anymore, that's a crying shame, because as I said, everything else has been fantastic these first three episodes.
Also, am I the only one noticing this: the music has a western tawng to it, Lian's costume features a brown coat and her pistol looks kinda steampunk-ish, the city looks all shiny and futuristic but seems kinda fascistic, and the heroes all have a more rough and tumble look to them... I'm not the only one seeing this connection, right?

I'm not the only one seeing this connection, right? (Really should rewatch Firefly. I love that show.) Anyways, another really solid episode. Really loving how different the dynamic is between the Makai Knights and Priests in this season compared to the last two.

I'm not the only one seeing this connection, right? ...Speaking of, this show has made me realize just how much I want a Trigun toku made by these guys. I never knew I wanted that before. I'd still settle for a new anime that adapts ALL of the manga though. Last edited by Blade Raider; 04-27-2013 at 11:18 PM.. |

All right, we are three episodes in and this show is still not doing anything for me. There are some good ideas in it, but it seems quite bland and there has been no character development at all. Sure, it is only 3 episodes, but so far Burai seems to have had more character just sitting at his desk compared to all 3 knights and Lian together.

Man this was another excellent episode. The way this show is going it may end up surpassing Makai Senki for me.
