    Appearing in the TV series, he is Ryuga's lieutenant and master of Taizan-ryū Zanjin Battōjutsu (泰山流斬刃抜刀術 Taishan-style Man-Slicing Sword-Drawing Technique).
    At first he wishes for Ryuga to overthrow Raoh and seize power, but falls in line with Ryuga's quest to decide if Raoh or Kenshiro will bring peace to the chaotic era. Garou faces Kenshiro at a recently captured village and declares that if Kenshiro wants to find Ryuga he will need to kill him first. After losing the fight, Garou keeps his word and tells Kenshiro that Ryuga is headed to Toki's village before exploding.

    Trivia

    • Garo is one of the few anime only characters to appear in the montage of Kenshiro's opponents in episode 152, the finale of the series.
    • Even though he is non-canon, he is one of the few enemies faced by Kenshiro to face their deaths with dignity and acceptance.
