Whoa, the Horrors are getting more and more violent with each episode. I got Lovecraftian-vibes from the one this week even if it's just a living computer.

Seems like there's more fan service this episode with the pool stuff. Modern Garo is taking me some more time to get used to. I have to admit, Gina is a pretty clever woman and definitely someone to watch out for.

Hope to see more of her past in the future since she and Sword knows each other already. I hope that Nero guy returns too and not just a one off time character.

Gina is pretty cool I guess. Not a big fan of her character archetype in general though. I guess we'll have to see how she develops as the show continues. Ema from the first series is still best Garo girl.

Another amazing character is introduced in this episode. She pretty much did her mission in a bikini. That was great. She also has a very cool car. That was one weird Horror. A computer that eats people.

Great episode. We get Sword fighting a demonic computer and a new character named Gina. Gina is pretty damn badass and sexy to boot. Sucked that Sword didnt get any info on El Dorado in the end though. I'm looking forward to seeing more of Gina in the future.

I'm excited for the next episode.

Man this episode was cliche as fuck,but still great.

Gina is really hot,capable and dat ass,tho.

Was also surprised by the explicit gore,feels like this season has a lot of it.

This show is fucking amazing, it just keeps on giving, been a while since we've had a show with so many badass main and important characters. Great episode. Loved how Gina fucking ran Sword over with her car, this show is genius. Love the OST as well.

Another modern aspekt of the Garo series: Computers. Horrors do come in all forms humanity can produce.
Altough I was expecting Sword to try to feed the computer with Damien to get information on Eldorado... But the time will come, when the Line begins Vanishing!
Also really liked the face change sequences computer did. Like, really.

Gina has a great ride and a great rack. Man they aren't afraid to crank up the maturity levels in this rendition of Garo. Also that Horror with the faces, if you watched the original Teen Titans, I'm sure you were reminded of Control Freak.
Don't believe the hype.

^ Literally nothing has changed about the pacing. Is this your first Garo?

Gina is bae, holy shit. Probably one of the sexiest females I've ever seen in anime, and she's a total badass. I've seen some people compare her to Fujiko from Lupin the Third and I can certainly see that.

Really like how Vanishing Line is progressing so far, it's off to a much better start than Guren no Tsuki(which was to be expected considering the staff). Next week it looks like we'll be getting more background on Sophie which is great.

Saying that I'm in love with or that I wanna smash Gina is an understatement at this point....She is definitely the best female in all 3 series lol

This episode was pretty brutal and I loved every bit of it.....Especially that part when Sword was about to go to the brothel but Gina ran him over LMAO xDDD

Ok, Gina might be a stereotypical sort of Female Undercover Agent, but holy crap she was incredibly brutal at the same time?! Like holy heck, her moves are A++!
I really hope she never becomes the "damsel in distress" sort, 'cuz she's already pretty friggen bamf as is >A>9

This is coming from a fellow female 8V I can appreciate Gina.

Though I am a bit sad Rook didn't show up //shot
give me more of that beautiful aesthetic, please. x'D

Whoa! Gina is drop-dead gorgeous. I adore her. What a freaking badass! <3

I swear whenever Sword does that praying thing once he saw a big oppai, it always makes me snort. Haha.

The transitions between scenes reminds me of Cowboy Bebop because of the art style. Love it! <3

That was a pretty weird, but interesting monster. Not that scary compared to the other monsters Sword dealt with before. As always, great action scenes combined with great soundtrack. Ugh. And this show knows no censorship especially when that Horror ate that old guy. Fucking love it. That sounds weird. Lmfao.

That Nero guy got a kiss from Gina. LUCKY! Hahaha. <3

Such a great episode. I fucking love you, Sword, and especially Gina. Gaaah I wish we saw Luke this episode, but we didn't. I already miss Sophie, too.

Best episode so far, Gina is such a babe ;-) I'm glad they've improved upon the fight scenes with the camera shaking. Only downside is how they always rush the endings, that fight was way too short.

Gina is such a badass, doing that whole mission in a bikini and looking fine as hell the whole time. I hope we get to see her more as the story moves forward since she's cool and awesome.

Horrors really do come in all forms, and now that we're in a modern setting, we're seeing a computer Horror. I wish Sword's fight against it was longer, but oh well.

Holy shit this episode was just a blast to watch, sword is the right amount of dork as he is badass and i was cracking up at him not so elegantly sneaking around, and gina was just a treat in every scene she was in. I also kind of hope we see nero again.

This episode really reminded me of one of the goofier episodes of cowboy bebop

We'll see if it jumps or not by the end, the first garo didn't sadly enough so maybe this wont either but im still hopeful.

Of course this depends on how good its next 21 episodes are too, we know nothing of the plot or of any real main antagonist yet. I adore the cast so far but the show is still kind of untested.

I really like the action and mood this show has going.

Does anyone know what the setting is meant to be? A lot of it seems to be styled after Western city scapes, plus there's stuff like the mob running around. At the same time, there's still that undeniable flavor of Japanese culture and style spread throughout, though that may just be because its an anime. Is it just a vague, mystery city or somewhere specific?
