let's figure out how things work. whether we're coming up with theories for how our favourite characters do what they do, or talking about real life science and belief systems, we can talk in here.
There is a specific rules for this forum, inside. Read them.
I think it goes without saying you have to have an open mind.
If your mind is closed or you are devoutly faithful to your own beliefs it is advisable to skip this area.
This place is a discussion board.
If you show a repeated refusal to listen to others views, it ceases to become discussion. You will then be barred from this area.
So discuss your ideas, think up new possibilities, be creative and have fun!

How do you think a Zoalord's zoa-crystal would react towards a control medal over it?

But I dunno if this place is the best place to ask such a crazy question. Ok, in my story which is in progress. I am designing some predatory rodents which I need some scientific fact to support this design of the teeth. As you can see the Rodent skull hasn't changed much for millions of years in fact they all look very similar. What kinda teeth will be needed or teeth shape would be best for a rodent's incisors to form so it can stab flesh. I have a few designs but I calculated that the creature might have what they call a teeth occulsion or overgrown teeth if I use my current designs. I would also wanna ask whether is it possible for a molar to turn into another tee…

Both Angels and Demons are my favorite topics to have a debate about. Do you believe in their existence? What is their purpose? How did they come to exist? Was Lucifer the creator of demons? Does that make him a God? There are just so many things that surround them it is hard to just believe that their existence in cultures around the world was a coincidence. Both the angels Michael and Gabriel appear in almost every religion that has angels involved and they usually have the same position. Michael being the right hand of God and Gabriel being a messenger and sometimes the angel of death (I am saying almost because I am mostly speaking about Christian, Judaism, Islamic, a…

you say that they dont disprove anything - thats because thats what science does .it literally makes things up then disproves or proves them... if the LHC doesnt prove what they want it too isnt it going to dump on all the current theories rendering them useless....philosophy/metaphysics rationalizes what is known and even that which isnt known by science yet.... we dont need a bewilidering amount of mathematics and exact quantum values to think about cosmogonal concepts with the right brain as it is free from the confinements of the left brain i get you are saying that this lessons of light guy trying to marry our opposing views of philosophical and scientific has is…

so as not to go on i started this from http://www.japan-legend.com/forum/index.ph...amp;#entry32200 it would be rude of me not to comment on this as i used to be a believer in the 2012 world goes bye bye theory...i say used to as i did literally think that the winter solstice on 2012 would be clocking out time for all of us... but more i looked into to things i really do think that this end of the world is just like a lot of esoteric things - metaphorical. 2012 date stems from the mayan calendar - and the Mayans according to some ascended as a community to a higher plane of exsistence. ( or literally another planet in a near galaxy!?)... maybe this is what will happen…

We've definately seen the Guyver take handgun bullets, but I wonder how much it can from real weapons? I think Dragon Skin body armor can provide a good example of what the Guyver could probably take.

I doubt the Guyver manga will go on for us to see children of 1st Generation Zoanoids(people who went through optimization), but I wonder what would happen. Would a kid of a Vamore and Razell transform into a Razell with Vamore's bio-lasers, or would he/she have to be optimized to achieve a zoaform? I wonder....

Now we've all seen the data of the Gigantic Exceed says its the form of the true power, but... ...I believe it's not just limited to the Giant. Remember, Caerleon is believed to refer to Archanfel when he says there was one who could use powers of the other zoalords. Now if the Gigantic armor was designed to defeat Archanfel, and Sho was linked to all that data(probably Archanfel's data as well) in the advent ship, the armor couldn't be limited to a giant mode. I believe if Sho fought other zoalords in Exceed mode, the armor would adapt to their abilities. Example: If Sho fought Li Yentsui, Sho should be able to see his portals and possibly maybe able to create to hi…

Do you think that evolution is real, and that we evolved from water, or apes, or that we came from the same family tree as apes Ryuki? Because I thought we were created by aliens, to be the bases for other bio-weapons. lol

responding to a picture that kenji chan posted, i wrote this :- god is able but not willing to prevent evil. that does not make him malevolent. that makes him loving. because to love somebody is to trust them to make the right choices. god trusts us. god loves us. he therefore allows us to be excposed to evil so that we may grow stronger. people with closed minds will always come up with such things to attack others beliefs.

I have always wondered how a Guyver "hears". I know that the VDF states that the Hyper Sensors are three dimensional compound sensors, the Hypersensitive Magnetic Field Sensor captures movement of mass with the Gravity Sensor and that the Quantum Magnetic Sensor can distinguish the brainwaves of humans and Zoanoids. In the new anime TV series, they worked differently, and worked on sonic vibrations. I know that to be false. So how can a Guyver hear? I think it's by either two ways: The Guyver's skin is sensitive to vibrations, similar to a snake, and can choose which part of the body "hears" vibrations, or that the crest on top of the Guyver's heads is the sole funct…

I am watching a program on tv. it has a load of kids doing maths. these kids are struggling on simple mental arithmetic. like 29 plus 15... these are mid teens kids. I am shocked at this since they have tv shows like "are you smarter than a 10 year old" I am about average at mental arithmetic. so I find this surprising. I thought about it for a bit and i thik.. yes when they get to my age they will probably be as good if not better at this than most adults. so it's a development thing.. but there has always been this idea being thrown about that kids are naturally smarter. it's a myth. they're not. I'm not trying to discredit anyone. I am just expressin…

I've been reading a lot about converting energy into matter. I know that certain reactions can convert matter into energy, like fire. But what about the other way around? I've read that it can be done in super colliders but on a very small scale and at the expense of a lot of energy. Does the Guyver have the capabilities to pull this off on a more practical level? The Gigantic has plasma jets but as far as I understand that uses collected atmospheric gases in its reaction. Is there anyway a Gigantic could use this ability in total vacuum without charging up with matter first? If it could possibly be done, how? I ain't looking for any canon-official stuff here, just th…

I have yet to see the Manga to see what Sho is really capable of but i have seen the Anime and something that i have noticed is that if Sho were to face Sean from Guyver 2 The dark hero (under some weird case of event) , he would lose without putting a decent fight , i know that they have the same unit in witch they would be equal in strength but in skill is a different story , these are the reasons why i say it : Sho on the Anime has learned to use the gravity orb ,frequency blades ,the head beam , mega smasher ,Hyper sense , sonic busters and the gravity cannon and can barely beat a Hyper Zoanoid on is own ,got owned by Guyver 2 and had to transform into gigantic Guyv…

zeo, I'd like to understand your reason for saying XD is light for its size... because the way i worked it out, he is insanely heavy for his size. gigantic height to weight ratio is 1.45 whereas the XD height to weight ratio is 517.31 . if we take that ratio and apply it to Guyver 1.. normal Guyver 1... that would make him 90 tons. shouldn't XD be 7 tons? I dunno, it seems like maybe height to weight ratio doesn't work in this fashion? i mean.. i just checked on elephant, and a large elephant can weight 10 tons... so how does this work? I thik we have to work in 3 dimensions don't we? ok hold on....

I was rewatching the Guyver tv series and came upon idea when watching the enzyme episode where it kills sho in the forest. After enzyme rips the control metal out of Guyver One the armor begins to overload and devour Sho. It took on a new appearance which has teeth and its body seemed somewhat symmetrical. I haven't read the issue in Manga so I don't know how it looked in the comic. I remember in the 12part OVA where the same thing happened it kind of looked like a mirror image of Sho only deformed. I started to think that this could be the bio boosted organism original form before the control metal bonded to it. Maybe the Advents/Creators/Uranus enslaved a parasitic rac…

i have used the below quote from here http://www.japan-legend.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=1425 as it sparked this thought for a topic... I never thought the exceed idea wouldnt go down too well with other people, i like the idea of a 52metre Guyver ( going back to an earlier discussion in the science lab that means a 52 m Sho!) .... i think the mass used to create the exceed would have just been an increased energy intake ( converted to mass) from the boost dimension right?? so theoretically depending on the energy potential of the boost dimension we could end up with a Galactus sized Guyver - Guyver C.E.R.G - Convienient Exceedingly Ridiculoulsy Ginormous where …

First off this isn’t a…boys are better then girls or vice versa, thing! It’s a childish argument and its not worth having. Anyway, now that we officially have a female Guyver on the cast (I don’t count the OVA) what do you think the differences between a male and female Guyver are? Just to get the ball rolling I’ll point out that the physical structure of the female Guyver is different (other than the female body frame). For instance, some of the armor plates are different shapes, there are only two side rib structures connecting to the megasmasher’s protective plates and the joints at the hips seem to allow for the better range of movement. This is a common trait t…

http://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn3744 It's 5 years old, this report I mean. Still I didn't come across it until today. It would be interesting to see people's reactions when (provided they do change it) they learn chimps are technically in the same species classification we are in instead of apes.

I was wondering about that.And by God i mean a specific god,a god with a name,doesn't matter if it's the Christian one.I believe that there is a high power that created all.Now i'll go a little aside from this topic and recommend you the movie - Zeitgeist *torrent link removed by admin, because it potentially infringes copyright* (oh man it has 58000 seeders...) .It's about the Christianity,does it really exist,does Jesus really exist?The movie changed my believes.The next part that the movie talks about is the war.The airplane crash on September 11,the WWI,WWII,the war in Vietnam and how that impacted selected group of People that are currently governing from the shad…

Me and my cousin play a lot of games. rpg and heroclix and such. So we wanted to add the Guyver into certain Games and we came up with a few questions and a few brain teasers. at least for me. We got the basics mostly covered but when how his powers worked it came up with a few problems during gameplay. so my first question is this... His sonic busters. Are they similar to the powers of the mutant banshee? The Manga showed he can use it to atomize targets by resonating to their resistant frequencies, and it showed him using it as a means to escape by letting out a distorting pulse. like a really high pitched wail. Ok, now in the new series it went a step further. Wh…

so when a zoanoid transforms into it's battleform, it seems to gain mass? well first off I think we need to confirm this factor. what evidence do we have that a human form does not have great mass? (the only one i can think of is mizuki helping fumio... but that may or may not be reliable. there may be other factors involved.) can we come up with some way of explaining how a human form has the same mass as his battleform? if not, and there is really a mass discrepancy, how can we go about explaining it? we have already had some idea, but maybe we need to clear it up. while we are talking about this, I think that a good subtopic to be involved in this maybe at …

I've debated this with People in hte past so I decided to lay this horse to rest. ok zeo made a rather wild claim in hte recent debate so I wanted to test his theory. I quote zeo as actually I find this manner here kinda insulting considering my results. I'm not judging. just the debate which we always disagree on. it's not a personal jab. now the part i find insulting is the phrase "it really is a simple matter"... because dude. this is not simple as you so readily demonstrated by sizing that meteor up as 1,800 km (thereabouts) here is a reconstruction demonstrating these sizes as you typed in your diagram. now this is a side elevation, but even looking…
