Garo Makai no Hana Discussion

The choice of actor is on purpose.
Kitaro (きたろう as in actor's name /鬼太郎) with youkai (妖怪) and undeads gives the perfect match.

OMFG, episode 4 is by far one of the greatest Garo episodes ever made!!!!!

I loved the nods to American horror movies along with the little social commentary about CGI taking over practical effects. Not to mention the Horror itself was one of the best designs out there. This episode rocks and it is going to be tough to top this one.

Forgot to mention: I loved the bit where Raiga was drawing. It's cool to see him take after both parents. Gonza's line about having no idea where he got his sense of art was priceless.

Episode 4 was great. Maybe the first truly great episode this series. Episode gets bonus points for starring Oyassan from Kuuga.

Greatest episode of toku ever made. I'm not even joking. My all time favourite toku franchise took a trip, or at least nodded at some of my all time favourite films. A single episode of toku will probably never top this for me.

I have to agree, that was one of the best episodes of anything I've watched in a while and without a doubt one of Garo's best. Absolutely superb.

It was a brilliant touch by Overtime to use yellow font for the movie subs too, it made everything work even better.

Perhaps I'm mistaken, but Episode 5 seems to have Thane Camus aka. Ring in it as another Horror. Guess our boy liked the series so much he wanted more than the mini-series. Good for him.

They filmed Zero BB after Makai no Hana.

Hoo boy, that new Makai Armor in Episode 5. Just one surprise after another with it. Hope it gets the figure treatment.
