Everyone sings the praises of Garo, so I might give it my vote. But I'm so turned off by what I've seen from Keita Amemiya leading into it that I'm hesitant.

I've got Tekkouki downloading, so I can't comment on that, but Gouraigan was trash so basically anything that isn't Kuuga is better than that.

All jokes aside, GARO is a masterpiece. It isn't without its problems, a lot of problems that seem now to be inherent baggage for every toku show, but if you like the idea of your toku fights to feel more like they've stepped out of the page of an American comic, if you like strong character arcs and a heavy focus on actual drama and story and don't want some mindless thing to just wash over you, then GARO is your dream toku show.
