''Garo: Makai no Hana'' follows Raiga Saezima, the son of Kouga Saezima and Kaoru Mitsuki, who after his parents' disappearance trained to succeed his father as the new Golden Knight Garo, being ultimately granted this honor after Kouga, who unbeknownst to Raiga is still alive somewhere, relinquishes his title to his son to act in his stead. After several years, he is tasked by the Senate to deal with Eyrith, a [[Horror (Garo)|Horror]] whose power to revive the evil Messiah led Makai Priests of the past to seal her essence into a stone slab by means of splitting her into nine lesser Horrors. In the present day, this seal has been undone and these Horrors roam freely, even though one possesses Eyrith's seed which will bloom if it cannot be sealed once more. Raiga is assigned to stop Eyrith, and to that end the Senate sends Mayuri, an artificial being resembling a young human woman, who has the power to seal the Horrors of the slab back into stone after the Horror is slain by a Makai Knight. They must act before one of the nine Horrors awakens Eyrith's seed. To further assist them, the Senate also assigns the Shadow Knight Crow to assist Raiga and Mayuri in their mission to prevent Eyrith from blooming and bringing Messiah back into the realm of the living.

Long ago, there was once a flower of destruction, Demon Beast Eyrith (aka ''The Tears of Messiah''). To make the evil more manageable, Makai Priests had divided Eyrith into nine smaller Horrors and sealed them into a stone slab. The slab was secretly buried without humanity's knowledge for generations, unfortunately, the slab was discovered by humanity in modern times. Believed nothing more than an ancient relic, it was unearthed and brought to a museum for display, not once knowing the great evil that lies within. Unfortunately, a person with knowledge of the makai arts had unleashed evil within the slab. By unleashing the nine sealed Horrors, it would set in motion a series of events.

The broken seal of Eyrith awakened a sleeping magical human-like tool, Mayuri. It is her mission to recollect all the missing fragments of the slab and seal them to prevent the Horrors from re-awakening in their dormant state. However, the other reason is that one of the nine Horrors carries the seed of Eyrith. Mayuri has the special ability to seal Horrors in ways not even a knight could; it is her mission to prevent Eyrith from rising. The senate assigned Raiga to partner with Mayuri in this quest and she has been staying within the Saezima estate to learn more about humanity and help Raiga on his missions. However, the senate added an additional knight to help Raiga, Shadow Knight Crow. Together, the trio hunts down Horrors and help Mayuri prevent the rise of Eyrith.

It is the fourth television series set in the Garo universe, this time focusing on the character of Raiga Saezima, the latest to take on the mantle of the Golden Knight Garo.

Plot

Garo: Makai no Hana follows Raiga Saezima, the son of Kouga Saezima and Kaoru Mitsuki. Nearly twenty years ago, Raiga's parents disappeared under mysterious circumstances and couldn't return to Earth realm. Believing his parents to have died, Raiga decided to carry on the legacy of the Saezima bloodline by becoming the next Golden Knight Garo. After difficult trials, Raiga entered the Hall of Heroes, where the spirits of the previous knights safeguard the armor until the next worthy candidate comes forth. When asking the spirits to succeed his birthright, Raiga was surprised that the spirits denied him; Raiga had to asked for an explanation. It was then the spirits explained there was another person still holding the title go Garo, Kouga. To Raiga's joy, he learned his father is still alive, surviving in another realm. However, Kouga relinquished his title to Raiga, making him the new Garo. In between, a great evil had been awakened.

Long ago, there was once a flower of destruction, Demon Beast Eyrith (aka The Tears of Messiah). To make the evil more manageable, Makai Priests had divided Eyrith into nine smaller Horrors and sealed them into a stone slab. The slab was secretly buried without humanity's knowledge for generations, unfortunately, the slab was discovered by humanity in modern times. Believed nothing more than an ancient relic, it was unearthed and brought to a museum for display, not once knowing the great evil that lies within. Unfortunately, a person with knowledge of the makai arts had unleashed evil within the slab. By unleashing the nine sealed Horrors, it would set in motion a series of events.

The broken seal of Eyrith awakened a sleeping magical human-like tool, Mayuri. It is her mission to recollect all the missing fragments of the slab and seal them to prevent the Horrors from re-awakening in their dormant state. However, the other reason is that one of the nine Horrors carries the seed of Eyrith. Mayuri has the special ability to seal Horrors in ways not even a knight could; it is her mission to prevent Eyrith from rising. The senate assigned Raiga to partner with Mayuri in this quest and she has been staying within the Saezima estate to learn more about humanity and help Raiga on his missions. However, the senate added an additional knight to help Raiga, Shadow Knight Crow. Together, the trio hunts down Horrors and help Mayuri prevent the rise of Eyrith.
