Garo Yami wo Terasu Mono 09 "Sonshi"
 

OT's nomux subs just went up and it's an episode that must be seen. It's one of those episodes that begins when a great dose of plot reveals and ends with a truly spectacular battle that Garo is known for.

And this is why you don't go to the evil corporation's privately-owned news network to expose the evil corporation. Sorry, dude, your death looked really painful but you brought it on your own damn stupid self.

Great fight scene at the end. I'm definitely curious to see where the show goes now.

Here you are and I love you, action-FX porn

This is, without a doubt, the most epic Garo episode I have ever seen. Even with the CGI suits the fight scenes are still unbelievable. I am glad that this show has a baddie that no Makai Knight can even touch, well except that cut at the end. This show has just got upgraded from average to a must watch in my mind. Ryuga (and that naive journalist) got taught a lesson he won't soon forget. I am not a fan of Ryuga because he's always stun his fellow Knights in favor of the humans, and I am glad that he is now a wanted man. Maybe he will even learn something from this.

Best episode of the season thus far!!! I hated the CGI suits, as they looked really fake, but the battle itself was great to watch. There are finally some incredible villains and it was nice to see how useless the knights pretty much are. Hopefully this will get their characters to start doing something over just standing there arguing with each other. On the other hand, the whole Ryuga is a killer thing to the public was played out in such an over the top dumb way. That scene was just stupid and it seemed like the people turned on him way too quickly. Overall, I hope the rest of the series maintains this type of quality, but please, give me some freaking NON-CGI suit action.

It won't happen, there are no practical suits. The producer has apparently said that officially.

Wow, talk about lame. -snip- Actual suits top CGI suits any day. I don't mind CGI when it is things like fighting through the air, but come on.

I have a feeling I am going to rewatch that battle about a dozen times at least. What a fight!

Also, I'd like to see all 3 suits released by Figuarts. Love them.

Weight:
Changerion - (up: 100kg+, action: 40kg+)
Kamen Rider G4 (up: 100kg+, action: 40kg+)
Garo knight suits - (up: 60kg+, action 40kg+)
Kamen Rider suits (Heisei) - (up: 10kg+, action: 4kg+)
etc.

Not too many people can really move in that 40kg+ suit for too long.
Also there is no back up suits.

It's already been mentioned in forums like HJU how heavy the knight suits are, what the director is doing is for feasibility and practicality. Lightning fast move and fast choreography will be too damn difficult to do with the actual suits. You're calling him an ahole? Well, you must be a much better fucking director than he is huh? A guy who's just doing his job, who have to think many factors about the fucking production so they can move smoothly, more than just pleasing fucking fanboys, especially fanboys from the fucking far side of the world they don't give one fucking shit about
