Raikou playing more of the hero type character again this episode. I feel like it's getting a bit repetitive this season but whatever. That girl sure is showing some interest towards him...

I don't think this season will have any major romantic angle though or at least not yet.
That Kaguya girl has some hidden motives behind her character. The designs for this season is really slipping compared to the previous :/

I think I've had enough of this now. What an absolute load of crap this was. A complete waste of time to sit through four episodes of.

Well, that's pretty awkward. Considering how Raikou used to having a quarrel with Seimei.

Awwwwwww, Raikou looks like he's in love xD

I'm pretty sure that this will not be the last time we see Kaguya and I really want to see her in more episodes and to see a possible romance bud between her and Raikou ;3

Poor Seimei is so jelly of her xD I really hope that Kaguya won't end up like Lara from the first series but this episode seems like it's setting up some big things involving her for future episodes

She's in the new ED sequence so she'll probably be a regular character. My interest is in the swordsman though. He's giving out a Makai Knight vibe.

I'm hoping that there'll be a bit of rivalry involved between them like Garo & Zero.

Most probably a different armor. There are many Knights with different armors in the Garo-verse

Kaguya-hime no Monogatari was better


Seriously though, anyone who isn't familiar with The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter will miss out on most of the story in this episode

finally some plot progression, since it seems like kaguya is going to be a regular character

at least i have some hopes for this now, though yeah, still a massive disappointment and the first 3 episodes were far from good.

I love this season a lot more than the previous. It was cool seeing how they incorporated Kaguya Himi no Monogatari into the episode. It kind of ended like the anime from Ghibli. Seimei ... I LOVE HER :D. Paku Romi is incredible again.

This episode was ok, and I liked it more than the previous episodes, so hopefully the series improves, even if only a little bit.

I'm not really expecting that to be the case though......

People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

Take me back to the days before MAL became infested with Twitter's favorite buzzwords.

This could've probably used 2 eps for some more jealous Semei vs Raikou banter, or even let her have a chat with Kaguya herself. It could've been used to develop Semei & Raikou's relationship a little bit more. Nothing bits of info revealed about our leads this week at all, nor did we get much of their banter so unless Kaguya is a relevant character that'll make an appearance later on, this was pretty much a 100% filler ep - not that I didn't somewhat like it but still...

Come on Garo, you can do better than this!

And why were they outside after Raikou's transformation?

Kaguya is a regular character. Check the new ED sequence you'll see Kaguya there. I'm surprised many didn't check the ED sequence.

I found this episode more interesting than the previous ones, as I do like the tale of Kaguya-hime. She's a very mysterious character, and I would keep watching it to see what's up with her. Otherwise, it's still not catching my attention all that much. I would like to see some exploration of the main characters. Also, the horrors in Guren no Tsuki are butt ugly.

How can the Garo Series fall this low?
It is like if this show is made of Fillers, because I have not seen any correlation with each other except to why Zaruba is in Stone

Well this episode was kinda meh... Kaguya showed some interest in Raikou and I think that feeling was mutual. But the best part in the whole episode was... Seimei, it's always Seimei, thats because she's HOT AS FUCK.

Dropped.

what happened to you Garo? You were brilliant last season. This season everything from characters to animation to the generic setting was mediocre to awful.

Its downright painful to watch.

Better than previous episodes. Can't blame Raikou for falling for Kaguya, she looked gorgeous.
Oh well, better luck next time.

Previous episodes were pretty boring, this was not. Although the plot of the episode was pretty generic, it was done much more better in every way than previous episodes. And the animation felt livelier than before.
The beginning of first Garo, was not amazing either, after nice premiere there were a few boring filler-like episodic stories. It seems that the pattern is the same here too. This is only the 4th episode and we will have 26, we probably need to give the series some time. But this episode felt like a step to the right direction.
I hope Kaguya is not written off after this episode, ED also hints that she could get a bigger role, i seriously hope so. I also love inclusion of japanese folklore into this show.

Can't believe they twisted "The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter" for this episode!

Sticking with this anime til the end, but its such a disappointment from the first season!
So glad that I'm not a huge manga reader, because the manga readers WHINE WAY TOO MUCH and have to RUIN every adapted anime for the ANIME ONLY WATCHERS!

Episode a bit too exploited in the story all happens very quickly, you start without much explanation and closes alo same way, also the narrative pattern is always the same. The plot of this episode, seems disconnected from everything else seen so far, technically not up to what we saw with the first season, here we are far, fighting cut to the bone and choreography anything but spectacular. How sad!

This is part of the main story. Kagura is a recurring character or in this case, Raikou's love interest.
