A new anime series that is suspenseful, nail-biting, and keeps you seated till the end focuses on the main protagonist, Juzo Fujimaki. If you are someone who is very invested in manga, anime, and fighting-related stuff such as MMA, then this anime series won't meet your expectations. As someone who hasn't seen many anime series, I truly enjoyed the content of Garouden: The Way of the Lone Wolf.
To be honest, the anime series didn't sway me enough, but I was lowkey swayed by its plot, direction, action, and cinematography. I was looking for a suspenseful and action-packed anime series, and I am glad enough that this popped up on Netflix. Garouden: The Way of the Lone Wolf was recently released, and it is getting a good response from many viewers.
I didn't feel bored while watching this interesting anime series. In fact, I was curious: what will happen next, and what moves will the main protagonist take? Garouden: The Way of the Lone Wolf revolves around Juzo Fujimaki, who is a wanted criminal. As he is an unwanted criminal, things are doubly harder for his survival.
One day, Juzo Fujimaki finds himself in a concerning and impossible-to-escape kind of situation when he gets blackmailed and forced to join MMA tournaments. The MMA tournaments take place in an underground environment; now Juzo Fujimaki must fight against the deadly martial artists and survive their destructive moves.
The most interesting part of the series is the thought, “What kind of move will Fujimaki make to survive this fight? Will he be able to survive this one?” more thoughts like this came into my mind while watching the series. These thoughts were the main reasons why I didn't leave the series in between.
The series is also not so boring that it will make you leave it in the middle. As someone who loves to watch action scenes and martial arts, which have been my favorites for a long time, I really enjoyed watching Garouden: The Way of the Lone Wolf. The only thing that I didn't like was the potential of the second season.
It feels like there will be a second season of Garouden: The Way of the Lone Wolf, and that is indeed a good thing, but the issue is that I have to wait for it now. On top of that, nothing has been confirmed as of now related to the release date of the second season.
Overall, the story is good; the detailing is to the point, but the ending might not be that okay for you. But this surely deserves the hype and recognition. If you are planning to watch this, then you shouldn't miss out on this interesting and suspenseful anime series. Do watch it and let us know about your views on Garouden: The Way of the Lone Wolf.
Final Score- [7/10]
