Wow, this episode was awesome. It jumped right into the action wtih full throttle battle on the road.

Sword and his group really ran into a troublesome foe. I love the momentum this episode carried too between the small talk and action. Loved the vechicle Gina was driving too. Very badass.

The segment with the gun shooting was also dope. I almost got Mad Max-like feel from this episode.

Awoken some feelings in me. That was a good episode, but it was trying to fit more, than it can.
Looks like next episode will be about nothing again.

This series tries to rush everything, but at the same time, we haven't seen much.

This was a really awesome, but sad episode. Everyone put up a very great fight. Gina's vehicle is very cool. Zaruba sacrificing himself for Sophie was heartbreaking. He's the best bike I've ever seen. RIP.

Apparently he could teleport ... if he had grabbed the girl, he would take her away. Well done Zaruba!
The question isn't "What anime do you like?" That is merely a list.

Another great episode. Sword is easily one of my favorite MC's in a long time. It's nice getting a manly MC who gets things done instead of some skinny teenager who does nothing but whine.

OST is scheduled to come out on April 11th. So we're going to have to wait a bit, but I feel it's going to be completely worth it.

It wouldn't be Garo show if the protagonist doesn't get an upgrade I was a little worried Mappa forgot also this episode was awesome but very strange because as Veteran Garo fan of the live action shows like Makai Senki or Yami o Terasu Mono I don't think Maruba in any of those shows died so that makes me wonder if this them saying they want to close the book on the Garo TV anime now ? :(

This Garo officially Suxx, hard. Most pointless death, when the heroes come 5 seconds later. Was not Zaruba supposed to be the source of Golden Armour? Man Honoo no Kokuin is humiliated by association with this...

That was one action packed epic of an episode.
I liked how the battalion of horrors looked like something out of Mad Max.

Zaruba was the finest talking ride in ages.

The Mad Max was strong in this one.

Honestly I thought it was a really weak episode. There was so much things which came out of nowhere like Luke and how the enemies had no effect. And why did Zaruba sacrifice himself if Sword appeared like 3 seconds later?

Really enjoyed this episode, happy to see Luke catching up with the gang finally. I think my only complaint was that the horrors seem like their not really trying that hard, I don't like the whole coming to fight and then retreating two seconds later. I'm ready for them to get to El Dorado and the real fighting to begin.

The action was great. Reminded me of Redline's aesthetic.

But the episode had really awkward pacing/distance/speed issues. First, where did Luke even come from? Gina's car was nitrous boosted into the red lines; Luke pops in out of nowhere with no vehicle. Second, when Sophie is running away at Zaruba's top speed, Dark Knight catches up with them instantly with no vehicle (like father like son i guess). Third, Sword and Gina (who are now also vehicle-less) instantly catch up with Sophie after Zaruba sacrifices himself.

also crack theory: between this and him being on all the tv screens ep 15, im getting the sense that bishop might not be "real" in the sense that what weve seen from him so far are just projections and his real body is somewhere in a capsule or something

They should have called this show Mad Max the anime.

Definitely the best episode yet, I even decided to rewatch it seeing how awesome it is!

Fantastic fight scenes and upbeat rock music, really keeps you pumped!

Oh hot dam, Luke is back! Really digging his new look, plus he's still a badass as per usual. Seeing him shoot the horrors mid air was just grand.

Zaruba's death however was completely unexpected, it took me by surprise. I wanted to see more of him :(

That all said the episode wasn't perfect. It had shaky camera syndrome again and some parts of it seemed rather rushed. The fight between Sword and the Dark Knight was short and seemed rather pointless. It would have been better had they resumed it during the next episode.
Bondrewd did nothing wrong.

RIP Zaruba? I wonder if he will be reincarnated. He usually never dies. His death were sad, but if he is reincarnated in possibly next season of Garo, then it's not that sad, although it is sad and Zaruba have been with us since the beginning of the show and a very close friend to both Sword and Sophie.

I be daym, we got to see some cool transformation and an epic battle in this ep. Sword merged with the bike and became one. That armor looked really cool and he were so OP too. It's was a bit expected to see Luke back. It's cool to see him back in the game with full spirit.

Dammit, I thought Sophie would be kidnapped in this ep. so they could finally reveal the King. But I guess that won't happen in the next ep. either.
