Kraken Releasings is at it again, with this new domestic film release from the popular Garo franchise, featuring more demon-hunting action than you can shake a glowing saber at. It’s Garo: Kiba – The Dark Knight! Not to be confused with the other Dark Knight. Wrong animal theme. Fewer naked ladies.
Kraken‘s synopsis is as follows:
He was born the child of a Makai Knight and a Makai Priestess. He trained to become a Makai Knight and fight the nightmarish creatures known as Horrors. Everything changed when the forces of evil intervened and stole everything he loved, the man who was once named Barago turned to a darker path. Learning to hate everything he once cherished, and twisting his oaths and armor to a new, sinister purpose, he makes a monstrous bargain with the ultimate Horror and betrays the Makai Knights! Now, in a spectacular stand-alone side adventure, the dark Genesis of one of GARO’s most formidable villains is revealed in GARO: KIBA – THE DARK KNIGHT!
Currently available for a $12.99 pre-order and presented in its original Japanese with English subtitles, the way God intended, Garo: Kiba – The Dark Knight hits shelves February 20, 2018.
