I never really gave much attention to the japanese metal hero type series (tokusatsu) that is also popular in Japan, at least not as much as I have for Super Sentai Series. I don't know, I guess different to me sometimes doesn't really work. But a friend of mine recommended to me to see GARO.
（ガロ）Honestly, I think I remember seeing the first few episodes of the same series a few years back but I never had the chance to finish the series, either I was deeply into something else at the time or it simply didn't "click" then. But now, I'm willing to give it another look-see....
focuses on the life of Kouga Saejima, who assumed the title of Makai Knight to protect humanity against dark demonic manifestations called "Horrors." In his quest to purge them, he encounters a young girl named Kaoru whom he saved from a Horror, but was stained with its demonic blood. As a rule, those that been stained by the blood of a Horror shall be cut down, or else they will die painfully in approximately
100 days. Kouga had mercy upon her and tries to find a way to purify her before her remaining time expires. Thus, the series focuses on Kouga's developing relationship with Kaoru and his stand in protecting humanity after the wishes of his father, who was his predecessor with the title of GARO.

After watching the first 2 episodes all over again, I noticed that the Japanese main actor playing the main lead, Kouga Saejima lightly resembles Filipino actor, Robin Padilla a bit.
Japanese actor, Ryosei Konishi as Kouga Saejima.
