Star's Guyver Page

Sully · November 18, 2009

Ok where to start.

This site (namely the new version) needs a major update and also overhaul.

So what does this have to do with the science forum? Well in a way it's this. Star's is a page where only offical canon is to be in the website. Weither it be Guyver art or Guyver facts and stories. So should it also be for data files .

What I'd like to know is what you guys who like this part of the forum would like to see in this site. Both for your debates in this part of the forum and also for the improvement of info for people to do Guyver based fan stories.

Things I'd like to see are possibly these;

1. Perhaps uploaded versions of the manga series, it's up to you if you want it provided freely or if we need to pay a small fee somehow to view it, like on some comic sites.

2. Datafiles and artwork for the original characters with everything in sync with the canon story. I suppose fan based pictures of the original characters could also be used to supplement it.

3. Maybe a newsletter section for those of us who either don't go to those other sites to gather information on guyver or any other manga/anime related stuff.

4. Same as number 1 for the anime episodes as well as the older versions.

5. up to date page on how to obtain guyver merchandise....perhaps even have that option to buy on the site?

6. And like you said the page does need a face lift, so perhaps throwing in a whole new appearance to attract attention, much like how the new guyver series looks so different and modernized from the older version.

That's all i got for now, but will be sure to add more as the ideas come.

1. Include obviously the 2005 anime which was not around when it was last updated. Perhaps a totally seperate section from the manga.

2. Include the translated datafiles.

The cover all is the updated information that has amounted since the last update. New facelift. etc.

japan-legend.com, of which I am also an admin, has up to date chapters of the manga, fully translated to English. They are also the only place to find them translated... So unless we get the raws ourselves and translate them, we will not be uploading Manga chapters.

3. Maybe a newsletter section for those of us who either don't go to those other sites to gather information on guyver or any other manga/anime related stuff.

That would be entirely doable. I don't think it would be very frequent, as normally it'd probably only contain updates to the site, chapter information on new stuff... But then I have heard that the Imakarum figure from Max Factory is finally being released... So new news is coming...

4. Same as number 1 for the anime episodes as well as the older versions.

Pretty much a big no. The series is still being published by Funimation, and the new box sets are super cheap. If you want the 2005 series, please go buy it! As for the older series... Still probably not. You can find it on certain sites like that... you... tube...

5. up to date page on how to obtain guyver merchandise....perhaps even have that option to buy on the site?

Probably fits more with the newsletter idea... But the option to buy from the site is probably not going to happen ( too much hassle)

1. Include obviously the 2005 anime which was not around when it was last updated. Perhaps a totally seperate section from the manga.

Definitely. The Manga, Out of Control, the 12 episode OAV and the 2005 TV series are all separate Guyver universe's. Each will receive it's own section. I don't know about the novels so much, as we don't really have much info on them... but at least the 2005 TV series added some of them to it.

I'd aggree with Matt here.

Japan-Ledgend will be even when Star's is updated the site to go to for info about the comics beyond book 8.

What I put up in Star's if I scan ahead of Book 8 will not be translated at all (not asked them about this but I doubth they'd mind, chances are there'll be a link to their site saying that's the place to go for translations).

Has for making a retail section on the site it's not something yet I plan to do. But I will be making a section of Star's decated to how to BUY Guyver stuff. Considering I need to buy book 6 onwards there'll be some real life experance to this update.
