Does the Guyver enable boosted intelligence and strategic thinking when equipped?


Recommended Posts

So, is it possible Sho and Agito's thinking and minds are working at an accelerated rate like the rest of them while the Guyver is equipped? I mean everything else is enhanced, so I'm thinking maybe its possible their minds are as well? 

 

Reason for asking...

 

I was thinking that Sho had no battle experience what so ever. Yet when the Guyver was equipped, he was able to learn how to use it at an accelerated rate and learn how to fight and think in strategic ways. He was able to kill off zoanoids and as those zoanoids as people had state of the art combat training as assassins and as soldiers, especially the hyper zoanoids it seemed like he went from zero to hero with it. I mean, Sho was able to take down Hyper Zoanoids that rivaled the Guyver's own strength and power. 

 

You take a high school kid that is naive to the world and you give them a weapon that seems to not only enhance their body, but their own mind and intelligence as well. 

 

I was thinking of him as killing someone with Marine or military training that could easily snap your average person's neck, except him going against a Hyper Zoanoid, like the Team 5 or Zerbebuth that he out lasted in a fight, except for Enzyme.

 

It just seemd to me that these are people who almost killed him in the 2005 adaptation.

 

So you think it was  Sho's mind that was also enhanced that allowed him to work around these zoanoids when in combat?

I wouldn't say that it would boost their intelligence, but it does seems to help them strategically with its multitude of senor abilities and its own basic instinct.

 

For example, in the 2005 TV series, where Sho and Tetsuro are brought to the warehouse, and the gun accidentally goes off while aimed in Tetsuro's direction. The unit recognized the threat, towards Tetsuro, who is Sho's friend, and destroyed it. Sho wasn't in control of the situation, but the unit was able to react for him.

 

I assume in some other cases, this might be how it taught Sho how to use it. Momentarily taking control of him in order to do something, or use a weapon that Sho does not know of yet. We do know the unit is alive, but seems to be more instinct, rather than sentience.

 

I.E. Sense threat -> Destroy Threat using best ability available. Overkill guaranteed. For example, Megasmasher vs Vamore. Who could have just as easily been taken out by a quick head shot from the head beam. Finesse is not in the units strong point. Completely obliterating the threat certainly is. And it seems to try and react "In kind" depending on the threat. Like when the unit first bonds with Sho. All Gregore does it try grabbing it, and it responds by grabbing back. Then over powering. It could have easily fired off its head beam and finished Gregore off in an instant. Or with Synevite and using the HF swords. Melee vs Melee.

 

So basically whenever Sho is against something that the unit can counter, and Sho doesn't know about, it'll probably just take over and do it, to protect itself and it's host, all the while showing the host a new ability.

 

It probably played a big part in Sho using the Exceed as well.

 

But as for making them more intelligent? Not necessarily.

 

Does it make them more strategic? Mentally? Probably not. But it certainly helps in a lot of situations.

 

Unless you count being tossed into a war with an international company who now controls the entire world, forcing them to learn how to survive, and create tactics to basically survive (and turns out, Sho is very adept at doing so!)

I think in part that the unit helps stabilize the host a little more physically. Most normal humans are in complete panic immediately, unable to breath, think, and even react.

Sho is that kind of person, but when he has the Guyver on, he doesn't suffer these physical drawbacks as much if at all. He's still afraid and in a bit of panic st times, but he's not cowering completely like he normally does.

Nope, I personally don't think the Bio Booster Unit increases the host's intelligence or alter their personality at all.  The Control Medal may provide assistance at times when it sense's the host is in immediate danger and activate a weapon automatically.  Like when Sho fought Zerbebuth in episode 3 of the 1990's OVA, when Sho had both his armors held onto by 2 zoanoids and was about to be headbutted by Gregore.  The Control Medal fired the headbeam at Gregore.

I do agree that the unit reacts on an instinctual level.  I remember reading that the control metal may enhance the host's reaction time, but I can't remember if that has been confirmed or not.

I won't be surprised if that is true since the Bio Booster Armor does have High Sensitivity Perceptors in it's weapons arsenal.  Which should enhance the host's reaction time.
