Too much information for translation.
And yes. I'm being lazy. :)

In short
A young knight Dougai Ryuga received a command from an unknown sender which leads him to Volcity. Volcity has been said to be the city of dreams and hope, but what Ryuga found there is the presents of Horrors. Ryuga summons his armor, which lost its shine for some reason.
There he met the others who are going to free Volcity from the hands of darkness.

*New series is directed by Kaneda Ryu, and not Amemiya Keita.
*As mentioned on their blog the knights will be full CG models instead of actual suits.

*squees like a little girl*

Yippee! A new Garo show! April's gonna be a good month. :D



PS Do we have a DVD release date for the last movie (The Wizard of Oz looking one)? I hope to see subs of that before this starts.

Didn't it like, just come out in theaters in Japan? I doubt we'll see subs soon, although it does look quite neat.

I'm also very excited for the new series, it looks great, I'm also liking the new Knights' designs, although I'm not sure how I feel about the colors on the new Garo suit.

I so can't wait, even though I'm not halfway done with Makai Senki.

Damn, I still need to finish the first series. And Makai Senki. And Kiba Gaiden. And the first movie. :lol

Well, that's good, to me it seemed they have done everything possible with "One face" Kouga (love, revenge, rivality, messianic mission, etc.).
I don't dislike him, but a third season with his same stoic attitude again would have not worked so well. And I can't possibly imagine the guy evolving a bit.

Which is why they need a movie to wrap things up for Kouga.
To rediscover himself in his "final" mission.

That's weird, I think Kouga evolved during the two seasons quite well. Eh, to each his own.
