Producer Masao Maruyama announced at the Otakon panel that the series Garo: Honoo no Kokuin will be released on Japanese television this October. Unlike the anime's first season, this series will be a jidaigeki (period drama) set in the Heian period. This new season will feature a female protagonist.
Additionally, Maruyama also confirmed that the upcoming Garo animated film will have a new story.
The Garo Project began in 2005, with the series' first airing in 2006, with 25 episodes. Since then, it has inspired several series, films, and specials. The most recent live-action drama, Garo -Gold Storm- Shō, premiered with a film in March, followed by a television series in April.
