That cinematic came before any of the large Demacian/lore changes, even if it may have been after the retcon. Even when Demacia was anti-magic, it wasn't explicit if he or Demacia disliked magic so much. If you don't mind me being a little rude, but it feels like your memories of the Demacian lore timeline is a bit unclear; of course, I could be wrong, but from I know, RITO didn't do any of their big changes to Garen after big movements in backstory with Demacia, such as the case with Poppy's rework and Lux's new lore.

Speaking of Lux, you could be more critical of Lux and her current set of lines. Certainly, she could still be cheerful, but the level of cheerfulness she exhibits is either unnatural for someone who needs to hide that they are a mage, or a sign of stress management through excessive cheerfulness (even seeming to be crazy). Then you have champions such as Ahri who's been changed into a more empathetical character, but still has voice lines and abilities that keep to her older lore.

In the end, RITO hasn't taken responsibility to change the kits (or voice lines) in order to fit them into the newer lore. Your question is valid, but for now. RITO doesn't seem like they'll do any big changes to multiple champs at once just because their lore has been changed.
