Shin Mefilas Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 (edited) I been currese about this for some time, how big an impact has Guvyer had (I'm willing to be more than it ever gets credit for) and how many parodies, ripoffs, homages of inspired bys are their out their. Even odd things that could just be coincidence. Guyver itself was inspired by a lot of things such as Super Sentai, Alien (it even beat the Alien franchise to the punch on ancient aliens) and other manga like Baoh and possibly to some degree Devilman (the two series have a lot in common). So off the top of my head...... Well there's the "how did DC not get sued" rip off Zuggernaut! Zetman Possibly Genocyber and Cthulhu Tech Side Note - While doing this I came across one of the weirdest and most rip-offish DBZ fan characters ever! GENOCYBER "Genocyber is a horrific and terrifying killing machine created by Dr. Corey Gero. It was born out of a human body but its true identity is unknown as of yet. Genocyber, at is has been designated by King Furry and the world government, is an extremely reliable being, albeit unstable, and is said to be powerful enough to replace any and all need for Son Goku or any saiyan to protect planet earth, albeit it is unstable." http://lookout.wikia.com/wiki/Genocyber Edited October 3, 2015 by Prometheus Guyver 1 Quote
The Crimson Guyver Posted October 3, 2015 Posted October 3, 2015 Don't forget about Guyferd. The creator has stated The Guyver definitely inspired him. 1 Quote
Shin Mefilas Posted October 4, 2015 Author Posted October 4, 2015 hmm I have never heard of Guyferd befor. Any good? Quote
Guyver0 Posted October 4, 2015 Posted October 4, 2015 There is also DC Universe Online that has a Biomech style set that resembles a Guyver Zoalord. DC even admited to it being an homage to the Guyver. 1 Quote
