Obsidian Knight Zem

He looks so unlike any Makai Knight we've seen before. It's a little strange. The design is neat, but it doesn't fit with the aesthetic we've come to know.

Gaia had a similar thing going as well, although he still fit with the general aesthetic of Makai Knights. Zem is a cool design though, and you could always explain it as his armour being forged in a different country with different aesthetics to the usual armours

Goldstorm had its moments, but I'd rate it as being as flawed as Makai no Hana.

Both series didn't know how to handle character development, or progression.

Makai no Hana had more really friggin awesome standalone episodes and ideas.

Goldstorm had Decade and some really badass action scenes.

Both series were let down by the characters being completely uninteresting or wasted potential, and dull plots, especially Makai no Hana.

First episode of Retsuden was a ghost story played straight for the most part but I liked it, its great to see Rekka in a lead role and the undead Makai Knights made a nice change from the usual standard horrors. Only thing I didn't like was the incredibly obvious twist regarding the old Priest

I liked Rian more than the other two knights, honestly. She was empty as a character, but glasses and (especially) fuckboy were hard to watch unless they were actively fighting.

It's OK but if you watch it coming off of Makai Senki you're not going to like it because Makai Senki hit a peak that the franchise has struggled to get back to ever since. They use way too much obvious CG which is extremely jarring if you're watching the series in chronological order and are used to physical fight scenes.

It's unfortunate but probably the most interesting thing about Yamitera were the minor antagonists. I was honestly rooting for the crazy news anchor lady most of the time, and Enhou/Sonshi were far more interesting characters than most of the main cast.

YamiTera had a couple of good points.

For me it felt like Garo because it had;
>a dark cityscape
>despair
>heavy sex appeal
>memorable horrors - the bride, that fat fuck in the sewers, Sonshi, the real estate guy, news channel lady, Zedom
Garo is about trenchcoats and murderous demons. It's at its best when it's riding the 90s vampire wave.

The plot also tied in nicely with the standalone episodes. Really the only reason to dislike it is the lack of physical suits.
>>
>>14103008
See, I get what you mean, but I had the opposite reaction. The lack of any real cool designs amongst the horrors, the poor fight choreography in a lot of scenes, and the generally badly done character development for anyone not called Ryuga really turned me off of it. The fact that the armour were not only pure CG, but also were only on screen for about 20 seconds in each fight also didn't help. If you like it, thats fine, each to their own and all that, but you gotta admit its a heavily flawed show
>>

I don't know where the hate train for MnH is coming from. It's not near the level of the Kouga series (and not as good as HnK) but it's definitely the best non-Kouga live action series. The plot is weak but no weaker than Goldstorm. The in-suit fights are the greatest ever done. The stand alone episodes which, outside of Makai Senki, have always been the bread and butter of the franchise, are the best we've ever gotten. It brought back the horror feeling that seems to be forsaken most of the time now. I loved it.

Maybe it just works better watching it all at once rather than waiting week to week.

>>14103543
I found it weird that they only brought up Mayuri's memory loss at that time (although there might have been hints earlier) yet it's immediately a non-issue because the show was over.

>>14103545
I alternated between episodes of Shines and Flower to catch up and both were enjoyable yet disappointing in different ways.
>>
>>14103554
I hated Yamitera when I first watched it because if felt like it had thrown away most of what I liked about Garo, so watching Hana afterwards felt really good. I've softened on Yamitera over time, but I still think that Hana is a much more solid show if only because it focuses on what Garo does best. My issues with Hana are a lot smaller than my issues with Yamitera.
>>
>>14103550
The horrors in Makai no Hana were godtier.
By the looks of the first episode of Retsuden, it seem like it's not getting a high budget, which is a shame.
>>
Well I hope Zero will be good
>>
>>14103192
right, its just a line thats a common "lets annoy people" question
to answer its because their crap for a bunch of reasons
first off their just not good translations, they leave words untranslated all the time "to preserve the intention" or some crap and that not what translating is, they are way to literal so lines come off really stilted, a lot of the time they just mistranslated as well, there are several series they do where they have mangled plot points due to mistranslations.
thats on top of annoying obfuscating fonts and TERRIBLE video encoding because of the terrible fonts and hard coding because they dont want people to steal their terrible translations

short answer is, its because their over all bad and there are much better options
>>
>>14104067
I'm already halfway through the original Garo, should I abandon ship and grab another sub, or just continue
>>
>>14104157
gomenrider
>>
>>14104157
switch, youll get a better experiance
>>
>>14104157
switch to gomenrider. The mistranslations will probably be there, but at least you'll be able to see shit happening. TVN's Garo is one of their worst encodes, period, almost as bad as their fucked up Justirisers with that bogus aspect ratio.
>>
>>14104157
If you absolutely have to watch it now, get Gomenrider, otherwise wait a few decades for OT to finish their resub. Gomenrider is better than TVN but the raws are still shit and it's only a scrub.
>>
>>14104067
To say it again, the thing with TVN isn't just that their translations are stilted and quirky, it's that they can't actually translate, and they aren't able to tell when they aren't understanding a line. This example makes absolutely no sense in the context they put it, but instead of maybe thinking about it and letting someone else who speaks Japanese take a look at it, they just put it in anyway. Same with the "Banana New Shoe" incident.

Combine it with all the other things, how fucking hateful they are towards their critics, and how much they suck, you'd best stay away from them as much as possible.
>>
>>14103076
This scene was nice
>>
>>14104300
Wait is there somehow a better resolution of these scenes, because I already thought they were pretty good, so that sounds surprising and amazing
>>
>>14105208
Even GomenRider's version was working with a flawed encode. I don't have GR's (or TVN's) on my computer anymore, but someone compared them with Over-Time's version and GR's had issues like the band of light reflecting from Kouga's scabbard turning all jagged when it should be straight, and Kouga's hair looking kind of blobby.
Unfortunately Over-Time haven't done 2005 Garo past episode 9, so about two-thirds of the show still doesn't have a decent version available.

>>14102440
The heroes were so boring and unlikable that I root for the villains
>>
>>14103537

I still haven't quite finished MnH yet but I stopped after Babby Raiga/Zero buddy buddy action.

That one, Horror Movie, and that severely fucked up one with the dead girls are my favorite episodes of Flower.

>>14105255

Yeah. Although they came close with making me root for the heroes when Ryuga got blind.

Also, that one with the AV idol turning into other AV idols to kill humans with their specific fetish (underage, milf, chubby in that order iirc) is one of the better MOTWs theme-wise in that series, along with Bright Hope.

>>14105255
This. Yamitera had Sonshi (motherfucking Sonshi, man) and Goldstorm had hammy delightful Masahiro, who were undoubtedly better than the chucklefucks we had for protagonists.

From what I can tell it's at least true with Garo Sho for Ryuga. Haven't heard of any significance to smaller differences like Raiga having a different undersuit than the other Saejimas or the armor's proportions changing between the original series and Makai Senki.

There is also Garo Jin and Leon Ver if we take into account the anime

If they get episodes, armor either won't be used or it'll just be CG. A damn shame but them spending money on armors that appear for one episode is probably not gonna happen.

>>14108253
Garo On appeared for maybe 5 minutes at most and has its own suit. If they went as far as making an episode around Sonshi or Zynga, they'd probably make a suit for their armour
>>
>>14108253
I agree with you, but on the other hand it wouldn't be the first time. The knight that appeared in Kiba Gaiden was used just for that (though they used a repaint for Baron, I don't know if it was the same actual armor), the knight at the end of Makai no hana was also very momentary.

And let's not forget that most of the MOTW have also a physical suit, and some of them are as awesome as a knight armor.

Retsuden means Anthology, it's an anthology show of various stories set in the Garo universe, with different protagonists.
>>
I dropped off Garou after finishing Goldstorm Sho since the Garo anime doesn't interest me, but I never got around to watching the GS movie, how was it? I take it that Masahiro Inoue's character isn't in it but is the qt tiny makai priest chick in it atleast?
>>
>>14108423
Watch it. The movie is better than the show. Ryume is there, and she's more interesting than her TV version, and the same happens top Ryuga.
>>
>>14108436
Cool, will give it a look then.

Also did the Makai no Hana film project get dropped or something? I remember there being a completely info-less teaser for it sometime last year, I can't find much info about it online though
>>
>>14108436
Movie Ryuga is top tier, and Agou is also a great villain, probably my favourite of the movie villains. I'm probably the only person who liked TV Ryume more than movie Ryume but she is great in both. I do like the trickster aspects she has in the movie

Gold Storm was also released way before the actual movie, the teaser actually showed Ryuga from Yami and the movie didn't even have name, so I think the same is happening with Raiga's movie. They announced it just to say "hey, we are doing this" but the development would probably be in its earliest stage.
