>Everybody says the action and animation are incredible.
>One guy said the movie is about 80% action scenes.
>There is a new final form. The guy said he thought the story got a bit contrived in the end in order to force it in.
>Also the movie starts with an "ero" scene.
>Horses are amazing.
>Also said the story feels like a "Kobayashi Kamen Rider" thing.

>There is a new final form. The guy said he thought the story got a bit contrived in the end in order to force it in.
This happens in literally every Garo.
>>14242340
I feel like Tsubasabito and the Garo/Zoro fusion are the only powerups that fit pretty well in their stories
>>14242299
>Horses are Amazing
Great now that song is gonna be stuck in my head while I try to go to bed. Thanks a lot. Ass.
https://u.pomf.is/clvkls.webm
So is anyone actually watching the dub? Wondering if it's all of the same quality.
>>14242306
>>Horses are amazing.
But can they beat swordsurfing bomb horses?
>>14242306
>That shot in the top left
>>14242340
>This happens in literally every Garo.
Makai Senki didn't have one.
>>14242352
What about Yamitera's powerup that was just the regular armor?
>>14242594
Thats fine but the part where Zen and Gai randomly turned gold was kinda odd
>>14242387
I watched the first two episodes and it seemed okay but the voices for Rafael and Al are really bad looking at later stuff
>>14242648
Wasn't the gold power up just temporary because it was Garo spreading its light?
>>14242387
Funimation is shit so there was no chance of the dub ever being good, especially since they use whatever fucks they can get in Texas including shoving rooster teeth faggots into shows.
>>14242931
So all the "Kobayashi is being tough on Leon again" comments are true.
>>14243164
Jesus christ, why can't he ever get a break?
>>14243164
What does it say in the fan art?
Do we have a date on Divine Flames OST yet?
>>14243385
Divne Blade is going to be on the new Jam Project album on the 29th of next month. Other than that, no word on the OST or Howlite's release date
>>14243393
I suspect that it might be released by Fall or hopefully earlier.
>>14243396
The anime soundtracks released around the end or shortly after the end of their run, so I'd be surprised if it took really long to be released
This image will never not be amazing.
>>14243662
HnK had a lot of cool imagery
>>14243777
That's a great shot, and I know I'll get some hate for saying this, but I cannot unsee Berserk there.
Garm's VA is surprisingly attractive
>>14242689
>>14242648
that still follows the whole "climax power up" trope
>>14244036
>surprsingly

Garo/Zoro fusion is easily the best one.
>Leon/Garo
>Rafael/Gaia
>German/Zoro
>Alfonso/Garo
>Raikou/Garo
>Hakamadare/Zanga
Rank the leitmotifs.
>>14243223
So who has it worse, him or Gills?
>>14243246
I'm curious about this as well.
>>14244450
>Rafael/Gaia
>Hakamadare/Zanga
>Leon/Garo = German/Zoro = Alfonso/Garo
>Raikou/Garo
New Retsuden is up on OT
So is Makai Retsuden 6 a consequence of something that happens at Biku movie? I mean, it looks like they are sending makai priestess to hunt her down, but we don't know the reason why.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7ag81UfmxMc
So, apparently the sound track for Divine Flame was composed by MONACA after the animation was complete, to perfectly match the visuals.
Honestly I was thinking Touhoku Shinsha had gone sour on anime when HnK bombed and were rushing the other TV series and the movie out the door to fulfill contract obligations, but it looks like they really had the staff's back for the movie at least.
There's some new footage from the opening of the movie with the JAM song at 8:50 in the video if anybody wants to see it.
>>14244450
Hakamadare > Leon > Raphael > Raikou > Alfonso > German
>>14245549
That looks fucking rad
>>14245431
Seems like it is
>They will kill me!
>Fight to survive!
>Who am I suppose to fight?
>Yourself.
What about the guys trying to kill her? Did they both forgot about them in the middle of the conversation?
>>14245549
>Horror roars at Leon
>He roars back and charges
>>14245549
The HnK OST sold amazingly.
>>14246179
Better than the series itself, didn't it?
>>14246314
WHEN AND WHERE?!?
>>14246173
Fighting people who are trying to kill you is so 2002.
>>14246433
Games Glorious, says so on the picture
So how soon are we getting this movie?
>>14247927
If we're lucky, late 2016.
>>14242306
>Movie starts with an "Ero" scene
Hmmm
>>14248679
I doubt it's them for some reason.
http://p-bandai.jp/item/item-1000104062/
>>14248987
LOL
I knew it
>>14248764
If it's at the start of the movie, it's most likely a random couple about to be attacked by a horror or a random guy having sex with a woman horror.
>>14248987
That's just the same figure sold last time isn't it?
>>14248987
>>14249548
I guess that answers why a bunch of pieces on the back were removable even though that feature wasn't necessary for attaching the cape.
30K for this
>>14248987
>Beast of the Midnight Sun figure

Interview with Kenyuu Horiuchi and Daisuke Namikawa
>>14250950
It's not an SHF, it's a Makai Kado which is essentially a Garo S.I.C line. That being said, it's a really nice figure, with great detailing.
>>14248987
I know it's a retool but how's the base figure of this? I've never bought a Garo SHF before.
>>14250959
Oh cool. How's the SHF compared to it?
>>14250940
I'd want one of the other Knights before a Garo form, but apparently there's no market for the anime guys.
>>14250965
There's a pretty good difference in terms of overall size. Yes, it's a different MK for this photo because it's one I already had taken a while ago but Ryuga's roughly the same size as the Kouga one so you get the idea.
>>14251013
>>14250965
SHF Garo is underdetailed and suffers from weird proportions like many early SHF.
>>14250751
>Yuichiro Hayase
Most places I can find say his name is Hayashi.

Typo
>>14251070
Who could it be this time
I'm watching Makai Tales and I just realized how beautiful Rekka's eyes are, are those contacts?
2 more days
>>14251428
So when do you think we'll get subs?
>>14251452
When Funimation releases theirs
>>14251452
Depends on the release of the DVD/Bluray, if we're lucky the wait for that won't be too long, 4 maybe 5 months. Then the bigger question is who will sub it, Funi won't do one untill their DVD release, so the only other candidate is Whynot (If they're even still around) and maybe Over-Time, but I don't think they'd sub something that was bound to get an official release anyway.
>>14251458
Has funi actually released DVDs for Garo?
>>14251504
They have! they released the first half of the series last month on dvd (with a selectable mediocre dub if you're into that) and are releasing the second half pretty soon
The movie is around 78mins long
It's not too long for Funi to work on.
>>14251533
Funi will do it, its not really a question of IF, its a question of WHEN
>>14250724
>particularly Ema's action scenes were overwhelming and I couldn't peel my eyes away (from her butt)!
Takei...
>>14251624
Remember Anon, ass is important
>>14251077
One of these days I'd love to see a show or a movie based of Roar of Steel. The origins of the Garoverse sound too cool to stay on paper.
>>14252977
at this rate Amemiya will have Raiga ending up with Bikuu to make ultimate babies.
>>14253090
But Raiga's for Mayuri!
>>14253100
well if he can change Ryuga, he can also change Raiga.
He is changing Rei now.
>>14253248
>Changing based Rei
Amemiya must be stopped
>>14253100
Might as well start a breeding program so they can spread them Garo genes.
>>14253090
Speaking of Biku just saw ep 6, a bit weird and left some things unexplained (what the fuck, some kind of anti-makai priest assassins guild?) but I liked it, Bikku's not exactly overflowing with femininity but there's something still attractive about her, other guy picked up the slack in cuteness anyway.
Does the actress do her own stunts BTW?
>>14253390
She did involved in rehearsal training, and the director has been encouraging the actors themselves to do their own stunts.
I do believe she did her own stunts in the movie and that episode.
>>14253492
>>14253492
>dem abs

>>14253496
>When you can't fap for a while due to a surgery

laughably mediocre
one month of light calisthenics will yield better results.
>>14253575
you dont need muscles when you can use magic
>>14253090
What about making 2 timelines?
- Timeline 1: Raiga marries Bikuu and have god-tier descendants. Earth eventually turn into an utopia with some minor darkness and the Makai knights are basically pest control
- Timeline 2: Mayuri can't have children, the Saejima line is over, mankind perish and the worst part, Ryuga is the new Garo. This is the Yamitera timeline.
>>14253794
Forgot to add Raiga finds his dad on timeline 1 and Kouga is a cool grandpa. He never found him on timeline 2
>>14253575
Ah jesus, would you ever fuck off
>>14253492
It's nice that she knows how to move, but the character is bad. She was trying so hard to look badass it was ridiculous. Not even Crow reached that level.
Reading blog posts, and I'd wager that tonights episode is most likely Ryume
>>14245549
>Divine Blade is actually an insert song
Huh
http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/product/LABM-7184
>Looking at the tracklist for the Jam Project 15th anniversary live
>There is an entire section devoted to Garo songs
>The rest of the track list in general is amazing
If only I wasn't broke
This cape is so annoying. If they rerelease this as Taiga with a softgoods cape I'd buy that without hesitation.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iBHb_cNr6BA
Couple of Divine Flame clips went up on youtube, the action looks crazy
>>14255054
God it looks so fucking amazing
>>14255077
They're really giving Leon a lot of out of suit stuff in this movie, I love it
>>14255077
These fight scenes are so silly now a days. The sense of momentum makes no sense. It looks like they are sliding around and then freeze in air for no other reason than the animators don't know how to make high speed movements not look derpy.
>>14255117
This is the bs I'm talking about. Nigga runs off of giant ass horror thing's head, jumps off....somehow ends up moving the opposite direction and right in front of the monster's head digging his sword in like his momentum was going into the head instead of away from it.
First shot of Rei in Zero: Dragon Blood
>>14255272
>>14255273
Am I crazy or has he changed his outfit slightly
Such a sexy suit
>>14255273
What's with the tiny skull and crossbones?
>>14255314
He's a Makai Pirate now.
>>14255314
Amemiya is changing him, remember?
>>14255345
Y'know I've seen a few people mention that, but I've never seen an actual source
>>14255054
>That poor horse.
Now we know where all the animation budget for HnK went.
>>14255350
>That teasing of who took the picture on Amemiya and Silva's twitters
I wonder who it is
>>14254891
More like Daigo
A new actor from his agency will be in today's episode
Also Daigo's actor has written a somewhat long story about transfer student in his blog, which is kind of unusual.
>>14255352
Amemiya mentioned in his tweet sometime ago saying he wanted to show the other side of Rei in the new series. Well that could mean anything actually.
>>14255054
I feel kinda worried. We only see Alphonso suit up for like one scene with the horse.
>>14255363
So Daigo is finally going to do something.
>>14255367
As far as I can tell, he's gonna get one big badass fight with the "Beautiful" horror before Dario turns on them. Not sure if he'll get anything after that
>>14255317
That'd be hella cool.
>>14255317
>Makai Pirate
>>14255363
Will it be more Sexual Harassment Rei? I like Sexual Harassment Rei better than good guy Rei.
>>14255142
>why is this fantasy anime about magical knights fighting demons not using real world physics
>>14255001
One of my capes joint snapped off be careful
>>14255001
I actually have it posed without the cape. Maybe if I had some kind of stand to hold it up, but I think it holds up better on its two feet without it.
>>14255317
You know, a Garo story set in the age of piracy would be cool: sea monsters, ghost/horror ships, islands filled with crazy natives and voodoo shit...
Shopped
Daigo and Haruna this week
>>14255526
>but I think it holds up better on its two feet without it.
Oh that's definitely true.
High school gag this week!!!
>>14255724
>>14255732
>>14255734
Must be written by Amemiya again
>>14255732
>>14255734
>>14255739
Who are these people?
>>14255739
>>14255743
>>14255742
Aren't those Daigo and Haruna dressed strangely?
>>14255749
>>14255750
Oh I didn't realize it was them the way there dressed.
Good to see this suit again, the horror looked pretty cool as well. Pretty good episode overall
>>14255768
>>14255773
Next week
絵空事 / 試金石
>>14255767
Do we finally get to see Daigo not job again?
>>14255797
Yep. He was also the best part of the episode hands down.
Zero still being months away is making me anxious.
>>14255846
The accenting makes him look like he's rusting. I don't know if I like that or not.
It's neat that they're finally making his other accents (knees, sword hilts, feet, etc.) accurately white rather than that weird pea soup green like on every other Zero figure.
Any dailymotion raws for this weeks Retsuden? I want to get a good look at the Horror
>>14255793
Another split episode like Wataru/Mayuri? Hopefully it's as good as that.
>>14256853
Hell, if its the same level of quality I'll probably enjoy it more now that I know what to expect
Divine Flame spoilers when?

>One of the secret pics was just Leon smiling
They know he isn't allowed to be happy
>>14257083
>Lara
Back the same way German is I assume? I'd wager its being caused by Dario trying to bring back his previous princess and will have to be stopped
>>14257167
>*Precious not Previous
>>14257167
I doubt it's the same as German. Based on pic related, I'm guessing Garm temporarily "dies" to let German back to the living.
>>14257307
Oh shit I never noticed that, what the hell
>>14256929
Not seen any spoilers yet but apparently its really good
>>14257126
Definitely a Ryuga episode cuz Zaji always troll on Garos.
>>14257548
Could be someone like Taiga else, since Ryuga got his chance in the pachinco game.
>>14257126
10 minutes of Zaji being slayed over and over
Closest I got to spilers so far is that German does indeed get naked in the movie.
Also some staff:
Storyboard/direction: Hayashi Yuuichirou, Sunghoo Park (ep 18 director/animator)
Animation directors: Sai Fumihide, Katou Masayuki, Sunghoo Park
Armor animation directors: Kawahara Tomohiro, Sano Takayuki
Famous animators so far only Shinya Ohira.
Guy says he'll post the rest of the staff after the movie is over.
Hopefully he'll mention if there's any moving hand drawn armor action, I would shit myself if it did.
>>14257691
Adding: Sunghoo Park, Tanaka Hironori, Kubo Masahiko, Hashimoto Takashi, Konno Naoyuki, Hayashi Yuuichirou
Best action scene seems to Ema's wire action with those white arm things.
First actual spoiler:people were brought back by a Madou Tool called the Ring of Zirkel,left behind by Mendoza, which has the ability to bring back from Makai the souls of people who were eaten by Horrors, but using it disrupts the natural balance and may destroy the world
Is the source of ep 3 of Makai Retsuden fucked up at the end? I redownloaded the subbed version and it lags when Anna hugs Mayuri.
>>14257307
>That dress
Oh come on, I know I can't expect physics but at least show me what she dresses underneath
>Leon Garo's new form
>swords sticking out from the back and work as funnels
>swords are really dead Garo souls
>>14257601
Taiga got to fight Zaji in THE BIBLE manga.And in fact, Zaji had already fought Kouga and Raiga when he fought Taiga, thanks to time control shenanigans.
>You musn't drop your pen. A pen is a student's life.
My sides.
Finally got around to watching the Biku episode. Her fighting style being slower/heavier instead of flipping everywhere all the time like a normal Makai Priest was sorta cool, kind of reminds me of how Kouga fights even.
>>14257819
Figured as much
>>14257819
As an add on to this, almost every comment I'm seeing on Twitter about the movie says that it made them cry
>>14257819
Any word on the circumstances of the final battle?
I-I'm sorry that I misjudged you Daigo-kun, not that I like you or anything
This episode was pretty good, not my favourite but Daigo was fucking gold and its good to see him get to actually beat down a horror. The school plot with Haruna felt a little unnecessary
Cool Horror suit as well
So Alfonsois married! To the girl from the last episode.
But gets his first kiss stolen by the horror [\spoiler]
>>14258978
>That spoiler
I'm so proud of my soneven though his innocence is stolen by the horror
I wish Leon kept the scarves when he became Garo for real.
>>14258985
but then he wouldn't have the glorious cape
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2SInmzDVdss&feature=youtu.be
Sayaka is cute
>>14258839
Just bits here and there.the horror changes forms , Leon gets a hand cut off at some point (at least one person seemed to imply it wasn't confirmed whether he got it back permanently at the end) then he's swallowed (?) by the horror. He has some sort of inner scene, I believe this is when Lala appears, she's not really back to life but just a memory, it seems. Garo's final form has remote weapons "like bits in Gundam".
>>14259004>Leon gets a hand cut off
He gonna need a soul metal replacement like Takeru then
>>14259004
Neat.Sword bits?
>>14259004
Leon's life really sucks.
>>14259085
Yeah.
Also to add.the horror absorbs the ring and gains the ability to send things off to another dimension. People were discussing whether Leon got his arm cut off or it just disappeared into another dimension. Some guy who saw the movie twice on the first day said you can see the fly off, though.
Actually there were several people that watched the movie twice back to back yesterday. One guy on twitter went 3 times.
So far there's not been a single negative comment. Of course, people that go to a movie on the first day are suspect to talk, but there were even a couple who said they didn't much like HnK and still loved the movie.
>>14259126
That's good to hear... but that means the wait will feel even longer.
>>14259126
This movie is too hyped up. I have a hard time believing that it's going to be as great as it's said to be.
>>14259151
We can only go by what's being said by people who saw it, believe it or not this is the general reception so far
>>14258983
Where's the source for this.
>>14259177It was a joke
>>14257819
Is that how he resurrected Bernuando?
>>14259334
They got obsidian so there is no need for another villain in the movie
>>14259339
I think he's asking if the Ring of Zirkel is how Mendoza resurrected Bernando
I think this episode made Heat have a mental breakdown
>>14259579
Wonder if we're ever gonna get an episode with an actual Garo in it.
>>14259622
He was in it, barely.
>>14259622
That isn't really what Retsuden is about
>>14259635
Well, I mean for one episode.With Taiga, or something.
>>14259640That'll probably be the last episode
>>14259647
>Kouga and Mayuri
Kouga, you sly dog
>>14259654
Wait shit.
>>14259640
>Taiga
I actually want an episode with Kouga and Kaoru raising Raiga. Not Mayuri. That'd just be silly.
>>14259579
I'd still take an episode of nothing over long stretches where the episodic plots and main storyline are blatantly stretched out like the more two-parter heavy Rider shows.
Garo divine flame subs when?
>>14259838
You
You are new here aren't you
>>14259838
HahahahahahahahahaNow I'm sad
>>14259840
No, Though I've taken a haitus from here since GnT aired. And really haven't caught up with the news about the movie. All I know is that it apparently is showing today.
>>14259852
Yes. In theaters.
>>14259852
Showing in theaters. In Japan. So subs are a little far away unless somebody sneaks a camera in and a translator is willing to bother with the camrip.
>>14259864
not likely to happen
Japan is super strict when it comes to pirating movies like that
>Baraduk Barago Yaryba Garo... It's a proverb in ancient Makai language which means "every knight is a light of hope." The name Yaiba originates from Yaryba. Barago, Yaiba, Garo... All of these are words which hold the meaning of "hope."
>>14259954
This franchise becomes adorably cheesy when you keep in mind that the main characters run around calling themselves "hope".
>>14260003
It's always been cheesy with all the light and darkness silliness.
>>14259863
"selective" theaters
It's not showing everywhere in the country
>>14259640
I want an episode with a grunt knight killing horrors just through hard work and guts. They could use that guy from Makai Senki.
http://amemone.com/2016/05/22/%E5%8A%87%E5%A0%B4%E7%89%88-%E7%89%99%E7%8B%BC-garo-divine-flame%E3%80%90%E3%83%8D%E3%82%BF%E3%83%90%E3%83%AC%E6%84%9F%E6%83%B3%E8%A9%95%E4%BE%A1%E8%A9%95%E5%88%A4%E3%80%91%E4%BA%BA%E6%B0%97/
>>14260302
It doesn't really have anything exceptLeon losing his arm
>>14260003
To make it even better, "Zaruba" literally means "friend" in Makai.
>>14260309I can't fucking believe that, how does Leon continue to suffer so much?
I want to watch those PVs but they give away the entire movie
>>14260342
He will probably ended updying to save his brother before he can become a knightfor the sequel
>>14261049Then his little brother, Roberto, names his son Leon, whom he trains to become Garo. And history repeats itself.
