SYNOPSIS: In the war against the nightmarish creatures known as Horrors, Mankind's most formidable line of defense has always been the power of the Makai Knights. But now, one by one, the Knights are being mystically marked for death by a mysterious magic user in a crimson mask. Even Kouga, the bearer of the golden GARO wolf armor, is among the afflicted, with the accursed mark slowly draining his strength, and making the use of his armor incredibly painful. Who is the Red Mask and how has he (or she) been able to target the Knights so effectively? All signs point to a betrayal from within their own ranks and now it's up to Kouga, Rei, and the other Knights to track down their enemy while they're still strong enough to defeat him in GARO: MAKAI SENKYU - COLLECTION 1!

SYNOPSIS: Things aren't looking good in Japan. The weather is acting strangely, volcanoes that don't normally erupt are erupting, and… oh yes… the giant monster Mono is running amuck and gobbling up the human population. What a nuisance! Fortunately, disgraced Doctor Totaro Saigo thinks he has the solution: a special formula that can be injected into a normal human, causing the injectee to grow into a colossus of Tokyo-skyscraper-stomping proportions! With any luck, that means the good doctor's lab assistant Nitto will be able to take on Mono, hand to claw, in "mano a Mono" combat! Yes, the plan is every bit as insane as it sounds, and the logic of the plot will be stretched as thin as the fabric of Nitto's ultra-stretchy briefs when the ultimate human vs. monster wrestling match erupts in DAI-KAIJU MONO!

SYNOPSIS: When Aichi Coexistence Academy converted from all-girls to a coed model, the female students were so concerned about male misbehavior that they armed themselves! Now the school is ruled by the lovely but lethal Supreme Five Swords, and the boys are forced to dress and act like girls or suffer the razor sharp points of the Swords' anger. Unfortunately for the Swords, new transfer student Fudo Nomura thinks that sounds like a total drag, and he might just have the martial arts chops and rapier wit needed to slash through the Swords' defenses and carve a new niche for himself in their feisty feminine hearts! It's a whole new kind of slice of life High School Drama, extra heavy on the "slice", as one Bad Boy meets some very Dicey Girls in ARMED GIRL'S MACHIAVELLISM!
