Saejima Taiga
冴島大河
A character on Garo.
Played by Watanabe Hiroyuki
Father to Saejima Kouga. Like his son, he held the title of Golden Knight Garo.
History
Married a Makai Priest named Rin. She died of illness when Kouga was very young, so Taiga raised his son in a very firm but loving way. Kouga was the next in the line of Golden Knights, after all.
Taiga had an apprentice named Barago, who ultimately betrayed the order and became a Dark Knight. In a confrontation with Barago, Taiga is killed, leaving his friend Gonza to raise Kouga.
Appearance as Garo
Looks like Kouga's Garo, with the exception that his eyes are red. Plus he's more likely to wear a mantle.
