Guyver's Bilateral Symmetry

Featured Replies

I read an article written by Ryuki that the Guyver has two of everything; namely eyes, sensor orbs, and megasmasher. At first, I didn't understand why the Guyver would need two of everything until I found this.

Here is a quote from a site

"Flatworms are bilaterally symmetrical, with "mirror image" right and left sides, probably a development that arose during the evolution of a front end - if an animal tends to "lead" with the same end all the time, it will move most efficiently if both sides match. A preferred front end also leads to cephalization, a concentration of senses and processors in the front. A preferred front end becomes an actual head end. In an interesting development, the most active flatworms do not have their mouths up front, although that will become a common feature of heads in later groups of animals."

The guyver is meant to be an armament so fighting is a very significant part of its function.

ok interesting research :)

although do you think that the primary reason for guyver having bilateral configuration is because a human has bilateral configuration?

everything on guyver has a human base.

megasmashers, each side is actually called a lung in the datafile.

face vents, reflect nostrils, sensor orbs reflect ears.

what's your point?

I'm not sure exactly what you're driving at.

"Bi-lateral symetry" implies not that something has two of everything, but that a line can be drawn such that either side of the creature mirros the other (approximately). This does not apply to all guyvers, remember that Risker, Guyver II was not bilateral in the face, he had both of his sonic things on one side of his face, and only one breathing vent on the other side.

True, but Lisker's Control Metal was damaged. It is difficult to tell what is normal with Lisker, and what is a potential byproduct of the malfunctioning Control Metal.

Poetically though, could we say that Lisker talks out the side of his mouth? I'm not sure how that figure of speech works

I'm not sure how that figure of speech works

I would suggest sideways. :P
