I was just going to say that, yeah. I don't think I've ever seen him smile before. :lol

Or without the bangs.

So it is Kouga? Horeysheet.

So I finally watched Soukoku No Mayruu after putting it off for ages in the hope of Over-time subbing it.

What the hell did I just watch?

Don't get me wrong it was a brilliant film, just it was just downright bizarre. Its quite interesting to see Kouga's story evolve from this macabre horror into just plain fantasy.

The backdrops and design were beautiful. Without a doubt the best looking toku film I've seen and certainly up there for films in general.

Keita Amemiya with a big budget.

It blew my mind when I realized Zangetsu was Kakashi. Really cool flick, I thought. Cool to see Garo take a backseat and remind everyone how badass Kouga is all by his lonesome with any ol sword

I have a question. Does Shougeki Gouraigan directly tie into the Garo universe or not acknowledge each other like Rider and Sentai did for 40 some odd years?

There is a small Garo in-joke in episode four where Mika Hijii has a cameo. Otherwise there is no connection because the shows aren't meant to be related to each other in any way, they just have the same director.

No.

EDIT: Oh, and Kamen Rider (and Kikaider) has been coexisting with Sentai since JAKQ vs. Goranger.

I heard that blu-ray quality subs of the original Garo series were recently released, but I can't remember on which site! Anyone out there know anything about this?

Oh man if this is for real!

It also reminds me that I never did finish the third season of GARO in the end, oops :/
