| not a fan of the new OP. boring. Leon all depressed. cant say i blame him. I like the farming family, they have spunk. Too bad im 90% sure something terrible is gonna happen to them. Don't think the prince is ever going to forgive Leon, though he does seem worried about him. After a 2 week break we are greeted with a borefest. But its a very important episode none the less. |

| I feel in love with that family. Can someone recommend me anime like that where a family is just farming trying to survive. Bonus points if the story has stranger that comes to help them out. |

| Oh gawd... I pray that Lara doesn't die. She's the perfect "something to protect" that Leon lacks and Alfonso had which caused Garo to choose Alfonso in the first place. And I am so loving that one scene in the end sequence - Leon dressed in white protecting Lara? Remember that Leon has been wearing black the whole first half of the series so him changing his wardrobe to white must symbolize well...something cliche but I don't care! I can't wait for it to happen! |

| Liked the old OP better. But the new ED is awesome. The soundtrack playing through this episode is really nice. Sets for a relaxing mood. Like the family too, hope nothing bad happens to them :( |
 |
| This is continuing to be a pretty solid anime. OP is alright but the ED is great once again. Leon really needs to find purpose and for now he has one. I really don't think Lara will be killed off, but as for her family... |

| oh man i loved this episode, im adoring the directing this is heading in and leon is evoking one of my all time favorite types of character development wiht the likes of luke from tales of the abyss(game the anime blows), a character who was hot headed and too self centered that makes a horrible mistake that takes away everything he once had as well as coming face to face with the damage it does to those around him and countless innocents, they wont forgive themselves for what they have done but they will strive to be a better person in the honor of the lives thye cut short. I seriously love this type of thing and its so rare that it happens that im dying to see more of where it goes I really like the new girl, the cover art for the 2nd half as well as the ED looks lik it confirms shes gonna be a main character from here on out which im all for, though as others have said her family is essentially impending their doom. Though hopefully come a little bit down the line there will be enough reason to list her as a main character on here Cannot wait to see where this show goes. |

| While this hasn't been one of the best series I've seen, it continues to keep me interested and even guessing in some ways. The way the first half ended kind of put me off at first, but this episode renewed my interest once again. The entire episode was like a big neon flashing sign saying "something horrible is going to happen to this farm!" I hope the appearance of Lara in the ED means that I'm wrong, or at least that she will survive, but I kind of doubt it. It seems that while he may spend some time with this family to get his priorities straight and learn what it means to really be human and protect those you love, that it cannot end well for the family. Something is going to have to happen to get him back in the game, and that usually entails the death of loved ones. I'm not really a fan of Alfonso, I just don't like him. His attitude has improved, and he's doing well getting the country back on track. I'll give him that, but as a character he just doesn't feel right to me. The preview showed Alchemist lady with Leon, I kind of took that as a bad omen. I hope I'm wrong. |

| I like more the new ending than the new OP. The episode was nice. Leon is recovery yourself and slowly but it's okay... I hope he can get away his feelings about is armor... :) |

| Terrible OP but good comeback episode. |
 |
| I feel like that girl will die and be a way for leon to bounce back from his depression. |
| not so much fan of the new op or ed, but I liked the ep. Not every ep should be fulled with action. Anyways, it began on a new arc so a quiet and more peaceful ep were the best to start a new arc, though I expected i would see the wolves that killed Lara's father (I have a feeling they are horrors). they must come with a reason that Leon can once again become a Makai night and with a horror in the picture he can achieve it. And yes, I ship Lara x Leon too. ^_^ |
 |
| I feel kinda meh about this episode. The previous op was better, the ed I like it. However, I still like Alfonso more than Léon, as he feels more mature and interesting character. I hope they won't turn him to be the villian. EDIT; I still don't like that up and downs in their voices when they charge, that aAaAaAa, it just makes me laugh and it looks stupid to me. xD |

| I have bad feelings about what will happen with that family. Great episode anyway. I love the new ED. |
 |
| A nice & calm episode. I did not expect this kind of episode in Garo, but hey it was actually really good. And just with this one episode, they managed to make me care about every single person in "Leon's new family."(unfortunately, I still do not care about Leon) Good job. Was it just me, or the cinematography in this episode was really different & noticeably better compared to the past episodes? By the way, I am surprised on how people dislike the new OP. Yeah, it's a bit unfitting to the overall atmosphere of the show, but to say it's terrible? |

| I like anime. |
| Leon taking refuge in a farm with good people. Alfonso taking all the responsibility after that incident. Some harm is gonna come to the king since that woman who was with Mendoza is still there undetected of her contribution to his schemes. Will Leon ever get the Garo Armor back? It's still a blur and quite not possible given the situation he's in. |
CreamZi said: Some harm is gonna come to the king since that woman who was with Mendoza is still there undetected of her contribution to his schemes. That's one thing that I am confused of. How come no one knows that she used(or maybe she still is?) to be Mendoza's loyal assistant? Like, really? I found that to be pretty weird. |
| I like anime. |
| Start long-awaited, although there are no twists or engaging action sequences, the episode is enjoyable to follow. Narration slow but presents us with a return to normal good. The OST is fabulous and the designs are not bad quality. For now I am satisfied. Demonarion said: The new ed is sweet. The new op is nice but I prefer the previous one. Ditto. |
 |
| Oh a pretty good episode, it's nice to see Leon feel better. I like this kind of episode where the main character is lost and tries to find a new motivation. |
| Nice, relaxing episode, in a way. Thought the old man was suspicious, but apparently, he isn't. Hopefully Lara doesn't get killed off. |
 |
| So, finally he'll be a likeable MC I hope he wifed that new girl and don't let her life becoming a tragedy |

Yep, to me the cinematography also looks better. They didn't spend a week skip for nothing (though they messed up Alfonso's face a lot). I don't expect it to stay thet way, but this episode was powerful. I like the new OP more. It's more boring and simple, but the devlopment of Leon from fetus to adult was a bit embarrassing to watch in the previous one. The new ED is good. |

| I really like where this show is going. The new OP song is good. Not as good as Divine Flame, of course, but I like that funky vibe :D |

| finally, Leon finds himself a woman. I do hope he gets to take her along without her whole family getting wiped though. |

| Pretty calm episode, look forward to the next one. Things are bound to heat up, the new OP and ED are pretty cool. I really liked the first OP and I still prefer it but this is a pretty good one too. :) |
| It's obvious a horror will attack the family or maybe the lord is a horror. |
| A bit of soul searching was definitely what Leon needed after all the shit that happened lately. It was a fairly uneventful episode, but it wasn't dull or boring, and I think the direction played a huge part in it. Watching Leon slowly but surely getting back on his feet after his phase of depression was extremely satisfying. I also really liked the relationship he built with the members of the family, especially Lara. If she was a little bit older I'd be shipping her with Leon so hard. The family better not turn into a big Horror-bait type of plot device to push Leon into the Makai world again (though I'm afraid it's exactly how it's gonna go). If he leaves, I want it to be by his own choice, not because he has to. |

| LMAO Leon really jumped. Dude, its your moms funeral. Don't make this about you. You didn't even close the casket before you start yapping your mouth. The first nipples in the show and it comes from a Horror. smh Let her take your clothes off. Dat Octavia. Lara's voice is annoying. Down side is that she might end up with Leon meaning she becomes a recurring character, which was made obvious since she's in the OP/ED theme. smh Also, the woman who saved German is also in the ED so he might be getting a new woman. Who knows. I prefer the 1st OP and ED. GAROOOO! |

| Nice to see Leon getting a little bit better from his despair |
 |
| I see Leon taken liking to the humble life, he seems happy and changed with Lara. I guess no fighting Horrors for him anytime soon. It looks like that's Alfonso's job now. His father has ditched him too. |

| I've seen too much anime to know where this is going. Alfonso is going to slip up badly at some point and the farmer family is going to get hurt too. Leon will step up just as Alfonso falls and boom Mendoza comes back, just in time to get his whooped by the new and improved Leon while everyone stands back and watches everything end in a climatic explosion. I'll be very surprised to see if this isn't what's going to happen. |
