Is it for you?

Who'll love it: Made for sci-fi fans and action fans.
The mood: Exciting.
The pace: 7 seasons and 147 episodes: a long-haul commitment, short, snackable episodes, about 61 hours in all.
What might put you off: A big time investment at 7 seasons.
It's in Japanese, so expect subtitles (or a dub).

The Makai fight a secret war against the demon forces known as Horrors, evil creatures that manifest themselves through darkness to devour Humanity. On the frontlines are the Makai Knights, given the task of watching over a district and eliminating any Horrors that manifest there. GARO follows the tales of the Knights bearing the title of ‘Golden Knight Garo’, and their duty to vanquish the Horrors and protect Humanity from the darkness.
