YAIBA: Makai No Kaen

== Plot ==
A spin-off to Garo, Yaiba: Makai No Kaen (Yaiba: The Makai Flame) focuses on young 14-year old girl Yuki Kita as she embarks on a quest alongside her wisecracking Madogu adviser Darubi as Scorching Heat Knight Yaiba to eliminate the demonic Horrors who threaten her hometown, and learn more about her haunted past. Later on in the series, she is joined by her best friend 13-year old Kenta, aka Glowing Star Knight Zelos, and his Madogu Naroba, the former with his own haunted past, as well as her adoptive brother Joshua/Constellation Sky Knight Daisei, and many other allies. They eventually rescue their parents, and soon after uncover a Horror plot to resurrect all seven Apostle Horrors and one of the most notorious fallen Makai Knights ever: Barago.

==== Standard Horrors ====
* Papekuto (1): An origami-themed Horror who possessed the body of a mentally unstable origami artist named Nobuka via one of his origami cranes, after sensing his inner darkness. Using his new powers, "Nobuka" killed his victims (mostly young women) by creating paper versions of them, then slicing them into pieces to consume, effectively killing them. Although he attempted to kill Hatsune when she went to investigate, he was halted (and eventually slain) by Yuki in the YAIBA armor.
* Calcius (2): A milk-themed Horror who possessed the body of a man with a violent temper named Kakami via a milk bottle, after sensing his inner darkness from murdering several people. Upon possession, Kakami then proceeded to scare his victims into a state of fear, liquifying them into milk afterwards to devour. However, when he attempted to target a little girl named Mira, Yuki came in and saved Mira by slaying Calcius/"Kakami". Soon after, Kakami begged Yuki to save him, but she refused, stating that a person is instantly dead upon possession by a Horror.
* Morty (3): A wart-themed Horror similar in M.O. to Morax who latched onto people, slowly devouring them over a period of 48 hours before completely devouring them and taking their form. Using this tactic, Morty latched onto Hatsune in an attempt to shake up Yuki, but was eventually cut off from the latter. Angered, Morty then took on a giant gnat-like form to devour Yuki, but the latter slayed him soon after.
* Death Net (4-7): Initially a person with a sense of honour who cared for his family and believed in second chances, former hunter Wilson Bradford got possessed by the renegade Horror Death Net after the deaths of his family at the hands of a gang leader (later revealed to be the host of the Horror Flare). Losing faith in the topic of second chances, Wilson then used his new powers to hunt down criminals and even other Horrors. While becoming cold and ruthless, he never targeted any innocent people, especially children. However, after helping Yuki defeat the Horror Flare, Wilson/Death Net started to succumb to his injuries, and was given a quick and painless death by the latter.
* Zazarox (4): A flamenco-themed Horror possessing an unnamed dancer that got devoured by Wilson/Death Net.
* Claus (4): A wood-themed Horror possessing an unnamed bald man that got devoured by Wilson's/Death Net's hound familiars.
* Banboda (4): A balloon-themed Horror possessing an unnamed effeminate balloon-seller that got devoured by Wilson'/Death Net.
* Erudo (4): A dirt-themed Horror possessing an unnamed gardener that got devoured by Wilson/Death Net.
* Flare (5-7): A sadistic and ruthless charcoal-themed Horror who possessed an equally evil gang leader named Kumaro after sensing the latter's inner darkness. Flare has an extremely violent way of devouring victims, as he burns them from both the outside and inside, then inhales the remaining flames and ashes up. Flare is also remorseless and a manipulative liar, and enjoyed to toy with his victims, such as pretending to know the whereabouts of Yuki's parents, and gleefully boasting that he was the one responsible for the death of Wilson's family. Enraged, both of them gave him a no-holds barred beatdown, then slayed him.
* Suzumebachi: A swarm of miniature wasp-themed Horrors who swarmed their victims en masse, devouring them whole. Although Yuki was unable to defeat them alone, with the help of Kenta in the ZELOS armor, she was able to slay the entire swarm before they could do any more damage.
* Grimli: A Horror that emerged from a sickle blade to possess Kaga, a security guard. Slain by ZELOS/Kenta.
* Danera: A dance class-themed Horror who possessed the body of dancing instructor Takamaru after

* Hanakage: A flower/shadow-themed Horror who possessed the body of an unnamed government agent sent to revive the Apostle Horror Daroda alongsides 
* Dandora: A sand-themed Horror who is Daroda's protege. Possessing the body of a glasses-wearing civilian, Dandora then proceeded to devour his victims by converting them into dust to inhale.
