I watched two episodes on YouTube, a Christmas movie and now this special from 2025. As for the translation, then yes, things are bad. I obviously hastened to praise the translators, because they have only made 4 episodes so far.

Apparently, there was a predecessor to the 2025 movie that aired in 2024, also about an adventure in China. In the absence of new Space Squad content, it's good that Kabutack is keeping the franchise alive and I do hope that a sub group notices and remembers that the last 2 Metal Heroes need their attention. Can I watch the 2025 movie without worrying about spoilers for the show?

P.S. 2400th post!

Speaking of Kabutack, there was a Bearbrick blind box wave around last year that included Kabutack.

It is enough to watch the translated episodes to understand what is happening. It`s not worth watching from scratch, because it implies that the viewer knows the characters of the original.

Thanks! I'll watch the first 2 episodes at least, before watching it.

I tried watching the second Garo anime, Crimson Moon. In the end, I feel like I don't have all that much to say about it, since I didn't like it for almost the exact same reasons I didn't like The Carved Seal of Flames. I didn't think the characters, plot, or setting were handled well. It's too bad, obviously one of the big advantages of an anime vs a tokusatsu show is the fact you can do settings besides modern Japan much more easily. But both the faux-medieval-Spain setting in the first show and Heian Japan setting in the second felt really low effort to me. Whenever I get around to Vanishing Line I sincerely hope they at least make different mistakes!
