GARO: Hagane no Tsugumono" finally unveils the appearance of "Kouzan Knight XANGO," the armor of the demonic knight summoned by Shirou Godou, played by Masato Hagiwara!

From "GARO: Hagane wo Tsugumono" (GARO: The Heir of Hagane), the latest in the "GARO" series currently airing after a four-year absence, the "Kozan Knight XANGO" armor of the demonic knight summoned by Godou Shirou, played by Masato Hagiwara, has finally been revealed.

GARO," which began airing as a TV series in 2005, is a story about "Marauder Knights," who summon armor that has been passed down from generation to generation to fight against "Horrors," demonic beasts that eat people's "shin-ga" (shadowy selves). The story depicts the battles of the "Demon Guard Knights," who summon armor passed down from generation to generation to fight, the Golden Knight, who has received the title of "Garo," the highest of the Demon Guard Knights, and the "Demon Guard Masters" who support them.

The dark and unique worldview, stylish visuals that make full use of Japan's best CG/VFX technology, and spectacular and dynamic action scenes make this sci-fi/horror action drama attractive, and although it is broadcast in the late-night slot, it has gained a devoted fan base.

The latest in the "GARO" series, "GARO: Hagane wo Tsugumono" will be broadcast on TOKYO MX and BS Nittele from January 2024.

⇒This is the first completely new work in the "GARO" series in four years! The latest "GARO: Hagane wo Tsugumu Mono" will air in January 2024! A New Douga Ryuga Story is Born!


XANGO" is the armor summoned by the famous knight Shirou Godou (played by Masato Hagiwara), who has gone missing. Only its name has been mentioned in the film, but it will finally make its first appearance in the eighth episode "Sen" (broadcast on February 29), which will bring the story to its climax. Shirou Godou is a skilled knight who once taught the "flash sword dance" to the golden knight Garo Dougaeru Kiba. We hope you will witness his magnificent performance.

Synopsis.

While being tossed around by the complicated and bizarre mechanisms of the "Labyrinth Alibis," Shirou Souma (played by Atsushi Nakano) is reminded of his father, Shirou Godou (played by Masato Hagiwara), in the past when he saw Douga Ryuga (played by Wataru Kuriyama), the man who killed the horror Gaella. As Souma begins to realize what he lacks as a knight, Ryuga decides to convey Godou's words to Souma.

<Story
The demon knight Douga Ryuga, who holds the title of "Golden Knight Garo," has overcome many trials and tribulations.
Tonight, too, he summons the armor of Garo and cuts down the man-eating monster Horror.
Then, Koyori, the Demon Warrior, appeared.
She tells him of an urgent situation that will shake the world in order to obtain the Golden Knight's help.

The Gates of Doom will be opened.

The Gate of Doom is the oldest gate where horror first appeared in the human world.
For some reason, it is said that the gate is about to open again.
Ryuga, guided by Koyori, visits Clare City, the city where the gate is hidden.

In the city, where the smell of darkness leaking from the Gate of Doom is pervasive, Ryuga senses an evil spirit and immediately engages Horror in battle.
In the midst of the fierce battle, a mysterious demonic knight suddenly appears.
It was Shirou Souma, wearing the "Hagane" armor.

What is Souma's destiny to hunt horror as the unknown knight Hagane!
Can Ryuga prevent the opening of the "Gate of Doom"?
Now, an epic story that approaches the origin of "The Protector" opens.
