Kaoru, who else? The Hagane no Hoko story doesn’t refer to any character expect Raiga and Gonza by name, but it’s clear that his parents is Kouga and Kaoru through the story’s description of them. Rei are also in the story (again, their not refer to by name) where Rei is kinda like an honorary uncle to Raiga.

Finally the prayers have been answered. Kouga’s son as the next GARO, now thats more like it and it’s AWESOME. Hopefully this season is gonna be way better than the One who shines in the darkness.
This is definitely the original GARO season 1 for a new generation from the looks from the trailer. And looks like a reboot of the orignal too but still being a continuity of kouga’s timeline
Also cant wait for the Zero sidestory too. This is AWESOME. hope this season builds up for a 10th annversary GARO MOVIE in 2015
Cant wait to see it, it’s gonna ROCK

YES looks WAY better than Yami. MUCH more aligned with the original two seasons it seems. I hope it doesn’t disappoint me like Yami..

Yami o Terasu Mono was set in the far future, but it’s still a part of the main story

When did I say Yami wasn’t canon?
When I said “aligned with” I meant in style. Yami was WAY different than the original series, they did a lot of … unusual things that didn’t work out well. They made it more Sentai like than Garo. And the characters were not nearly as good or flesh out. That’s what I was referring to by being disappointed and not aligning with the original.
And technically it’s not part of the “main story” because it’s based WAY in the future and it’s completely isolated and separate from Kouga’s story.
