undyinglight Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 (edited) So the manga is on hiatus currently, but are there any other signs of life in the franchise right now? Any new merchandise being released or on the horizon? Any new dvd/blu ray compilations of past adaptations?

UltraGuyver351 Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 On 5/17/2020 at 4:31 PM, Kanji said: I'm happy waiting as well. I mean it won't be the first manga to enter an indefinite purgatory, but at least it's still getting some love. In the mean-time i've been binge watching a load of 80's OVA's to feed my golden age nostalgia. Stumbled across one called 'Majuu Sensen' recently which bares some striking resemblances. I recommend checking it out if you are a fan of old anime. The manga pre-dates Guyver by a decade and is a mixture of devilman. I've heard of this OVA, it was made by the late, great Ken Ishikawa - The creator of Getter Robo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DefTempist Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 (edited) It just sucks that no one can ask Takaya what and why since that is seen as disrespectful for his culture. I find that frustrating. Still, I think it's rude that he didn't make an announcement and give an excuse. It's almost as bad as standing up a girl you asked out on a date. The point is, he could have said anything he wanted, it doesn't have to be about his personal life. At least than we'd know not to expect anything. But since it's taken this long and what ever chapters he was working on is in production hell. It's a bit obvious now.

Scorpion Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 ...I sometimes wish Guyver wasn't my first anime. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tora Tan Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 I don't think anyone's bothering to check any more. not much point. it's been 5 years of hoping. we have to learn when to accept they are done with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing that has "changed" is that Japanese Twitter conversations have increased because they have been worried now that Miura has passed away, that the same thing might happen to Guyver. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scorpion Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Miura passing was a real gut punch to me. "He died doing what he wanted no matter what right? I bet he was happy." Rest In Peace. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undyinglight Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Did Yoshiki Takaya know Kentaro Miura? Both of them have been Mangakas since the 80's. Many Mangaka paid respects to Kentaro Miura after his passing. I know that Kentaro Miura inspired many to initially get into the industry though Guyver actually began prior to Berserk. Has Yoshiki Takaya said anything or paid his respects to Kentaro Miura? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bio-Boosted Dude Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Takaya seems to be a very private person so while I imagine he probably paid his respects he probably didn't do it publicly. If he were going to say anything publicly I would rather it be about Guyver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Masamune Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Is the consensus that Takaya owes the fans an explanation, or not? To be honest, if he has no intention of picking up the series he should at least put the fans out of their misery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But confirmation whether or not to continue hoping for more? Yes. We absolutely do deserve that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
durendal Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 Well, we can't blame the author about this, but it should be the publisher's responsibility to let the readers know what the direction they will take about Guyver. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerrygoodman Posted October 28, 2021 Author Share Posted October 28, 2021 Well, I've been perusing Shonen Ace's website, and while I admit that my grasp of Japanese is...sub-par at best, I do see that Guyver still has a listing. I know it isn't much, but hey...gotta have some reason to hope, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mold Spectre Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 Been away a long time, sad to see that things haven't improved but then thats a risk with long running Manga. If, and lets not lose all hope here, but if Guyver never comes back lets not forget it. It was my first anime, and it's an amazing series even if it remains unfinished. These days I find myself watching one of the series that inspired Guyver, Ultraman as well as all it's sequels and spin-offs. I even see some of the inspirations for Zoanoids. Zx-tole Zetton Even now I think of Guyver even when I haven't watched the series in years. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markness Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 I would honestly just be fine if Viz or another good US manga publishing company just re-licensed or license rescued Guyver and publish it in proper form. I could at least have a physical copy that’s right to left and in English. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larz Zahn Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 It just occurred to me.... I never read the translation for the last volume. I have the raw, and I went thru it, but I had absolutely zero interest in reading it at the time. Now I'm dying to read it but forgot where I downloaded it to! Hah! I'm sure its on my old HD, I'll get it, but it just struck me outside of agito getting the exceed, nothing super interested me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
