[guyver]29_-_chapters_for_next_volume/1211/1[/guyver]

I think most people don't consider them hacks and don't think they suck balls. if they did, the movies wouldn't make money. people enjoy them. if the definition of good is something that most people won't appreciate and the definition of crappy is something that everyone really enjoys and wants more of, then I want to live in the most crappy world. peter jackson... hmm, well he did do a good job of adapting a rather long saga for the silver screen. he managed to convince the producers to put up the enormous amount of money to make it happen. I think he'd do a good job.

salkafar, I wonder if the message is not that we are failures, but rather something more like this:- the creators could try and make life, but life wants to be free and be self deterministic. the creators wanted to make life into a weapon, but shou demonstrates clearly throughout the series that life is not able to be purely made into a weapon, rather life seeks to protect the dearest ones. something like that. but i think philosophically, it could work fine as a movie. that is my view. I am unsure if Christopher Nolan could do it justice. the batman films felt macabre to me. or if not macabre, then rather gloomy and never felt very positive. I think guyver is different. although it deals with horrific themes, i feel that it deals with those themes through shou's perspective. that of innocence and a focus on living and freedom.

thinking abut it now, I'd like to suggest there is something else at play. we've seen this breach in void space by various characters. guyver gigantic does it with the cocoon. archanfel does it and apollon does it. but zoalords that have been shown to be keenly attuned to gravitational forces and can clearly generate massive gravity wells, haven't been shown to be able to use this ability. so I think something else is at play when considering a conduit to void space.

I watched a bit of the beginning of this last night. up to the bit where he turns into guyver. I really enjoyed it. I have to say, I love this anime. I always wanted to watch it properly. I only ever got to see it on a laser disc with really bad subtitles. watching this now with natural dialogue it was just incredible. I wanted to point out that malmot is not a name, it was a scornful retort 'marmot' the equivalent in the west being 'guinea pig'. but you have completed the project so it's not like you can change it and a lot of people also think malmot is his name. so no biggie. gonna watch the rest later on. it takes me to a special place. a place i've only dreamed of. a place where guyver is real.

it could have been on the warriorguyver website. I remember once upon a time, the mods were pretty strict on there. but we've never been against topic revival. if the guyver can revive then who are we to denounce it?

I don't think it's that unreasonable. I think it's very sensible. I've thought the same thing for a while. the gravity controller seems to be well capable of making that definite connection or gate with the void space. I don't know about it being a 'heart' maybe more like a large intestine condensed into a tiny space. although having said that, how would the energy be transported? I guess we're just going to struggle coming up with ideas at this point.

I think it's good to have these in one thread. in terms of checking on details or comparing the manga, there is no access to the original japanese so not much I can contribute in that way. the story is also pretty straightforward. it is interesting about where guyver 3 calls his armour. any inspection of the vicinity will show no point of entry and will show a blast field in the corridor. that is sloppy for agito.

postcards? I do have some of those. did they come from the books? damn, sorry about that m8 I thought I'd got them from the manga-video or the tv series DVD's or something. looking at them now, I have written numbers on the back in pencil. that must be the number of the book they came with. I am certain I had postcards from the manga publishing videos but they don't seem to be there. hmmm. did I send the wrong ones by mistake? or maybe they disappeared somewhere else. send me your address in a PM and I'll send these postcards to you I don't keep my books pristine. the books i have now, I took off the little flier cover thing. manga is only 560 yen each so it's not really that precious. a lot of Japanese people will recycle their old manga because of lack of space in the homes.

hey all, I was just messing about in google and i was noticing that our page ranking in google is not as good as it could be. my fear is that there are people out there on the net who love guyver and talk about it and there are even projects that are going on that are unaware of this community. it's hard to believe because we scanlate the manga, but then people take what we have scanlated and they post it elsewhere. we can't really do anything about that, but what we can do is increase our visibility. We need to get higher in google. what I need is suggestions on how to do that. I've looked at keywords on the main page of the site, but I am thinking some more is needed. I need your help!

my main area of focus for this would be the out of control OVA. that OVA was produced before guyver 3 was revealed as agito makishima. Agito isn't in the OVA. from that info, I might imagine that the producers of that show were not aware of GIII being Agito.

no this is the first one that has it. as far as i remember. I've bought every book at some point so i've seen each one. i think.

oh hey, in case you were looking for the site that went down, I actually just found this by random chance while google surfing - http://homepage.ntlworld.com/stephen.davenport4/index.htm

I don't really agree with the inclusion of temporal field into guyver science, but i can make a suggestions as to how this might work if I may. my understanding of what einstein has said about the speed of light includes a change in the flow of time for objects approaching the speed of light. they also become more massive. there is a possibility that increasing the mass of the organism through use of gravity as the guyver can do so, may have some relationship with the flow of time. this is mere musing though and I personally feel it is way too complicated to try and make it work. I'd really love to see the original japanese paragraph for the part that states 'frozen time'.

neither does hydrogen and oxygen. I don't see what you're saying. you said carbon and silicon form long chain molecules. in this model I'm positing, sulfur hexaflouride takes the place of water and silicon takes the place of carbon.

thanks for checking it, but it's best not to go further off topic. I was hoping you could directly edit the appropriate articles and if any discussion is needed about those articles, it could be discussed in the website discussion forum. I'm just mindful that Aether's topic is being used for the wrong purposes.

I was trying to do this in our wiki section. if you get a moment, do you think you could check over it and correct any i got wrong or add any that i missed?

ha ha, I love how you call them ears! but it is funny because there is no other way to call them! it seems odd to see it, even though I probably said that myself in other places. they are such odd structures. it's like hair but also like rabbit ears or something. it's such fun

looking at silicon and it's placement in the periodic table, it seems to be in a similar location in relation to sulfur and flourine?

ooh, this is really interesting! kinda relevant to the other thread I just made. might even make my ideas obsolete.

I was just thinking about how our idea for life generally includes a certain range of temperatures. then I thought about what if it is easily possible for a kind of life to flourish at much lower temperatures to what we could withstand. and if that life came to our temperature, it would be incinerated. I thought that there are compounds that form a liquid at much lower temperatures than us and so would be able to be as naturally fluid at very low temperature. such a creature living on a planet very far from their sun, like a moon round jupiter, would be just fine, very comfortable there. the water in our bodies would freeze solid, but they would be happy as anything. for them, coming into our environment would be like us walking around on mercury. I thought about the arrangement of elements on the periodic table and i looked for elements with a similar relationship to hydrogen and oxygen. I then looked for compounds of those elements that have similar properties to water except at lower temperatures. sulfur hexaflouride is a gas in our natural environment but it is a liquid in a much lower temperature. how does this sound to you? obviously it wouldn't react with carbon and nitrogen the same, I haven't thought that far, but given the different placement in the periodic table, it could use different elements to form similar relationships.

æ‹›ã‹ã‚Œã–る客 I think we've already had a translation for this title. the book is called "uninvited guests" thanks for posting those images cannibal. very cool additional panels. i love that slow transformation like the one we had of shou.

yeah, I have to admit I was a bit surprised that they are so visible on the figures they are generally hidden in the manga aren't they? it's like the orb seems to be very opaque. so perhaps the figure has it just a little bit too transparent? it is nice to think about what they might be. and this talk has changed my own personal view on the gravity controller. I hadn't quote acknowledged and committed to memory the fact that the GC doesn't actually generate or change gravitational forces directly, it controls the gravity manipulations of the other organs of the guyver. it sort of brings home the things we have seen such as gigantic dark's leg flying of its own accord. I hadn't questioned that, but had found it a little odd. but now of course it makes perfect sense. it's almost as though the gravity controller is a sub-processor of some sort. or... how about if the gravity controller isn't localised in it's siphoning of void space energy? perhaps the gravity controller can create an energy siphon within a certain radius? so it actually controls the position of where the void space energy manifests and maybe that manifests as gravity wells or something. or... maybe i'm just getting mixed up with too much data. ah it's probably because i'm tired. let's see if you can pick up hte threads of what i'm going on about. something like gravity pinholes in the vicinity of the energy amps. that pinhole can get the energy transmuted into electromagnetic energy or effective mass etc. oh, this is where subatmoic physics can come in handy. I'll think about this tomorrow.

alkanfel009, those images don't show. you shouldn't hotlink them really. you need to save them and post them as an attachment or put them to imageshack or photobucket or mediafire. or you could load them to our gallery http://www.japan-legend.com/gallery/index.php

I'm not sure, I'm getting confused now. all I know is that if it were gravity controllers inside I am sure it would be more clear. especially when we see them smashed open, they would be drawn shiny. http://www.japan-legend.com/guyver_advocacy/16_-_Torrid_Lightning-Hyper/094/25 they appear very dull and with a matte texture. it just doesn't scream gravity controller to me and also, I am sure the system would be anomalous in terms of power output if that were the case. at this stage i don't even know why we're arguing about gravity controllers being in the energy amps. if you're saying the ambiguous description is the reason. ok, but I don't see it as ambiguous. I see it as saying, the gravity controller siphons energy, and the other organs and systems of the guyver use that energy. or if the reason is simply to arrive at an explanation of why there is orbs inside the energy amps, well I think there can be any number of possibilities. in normal guyver, before the gravity controllers were placed on the chest, there was another form of structure in the centre of the megasmasher. I think the whole premise is very straightforward in that an orb of any kind, on it['s own is not gonna acheive much. in designing the guyver and all these orbs, takaya sensei has been clever and included these little details to hint at some for of mechanism for how these things work. an orb looks nice in terms of design, but it also is functional and not just a useless glass bead. edit: or if you're sticking to your guns because i unintentionally irked you or shot down one of your ideas, I apologise. it's not my intention to get under your skin my not listening or respecting your idea.
