V Guyver

Dreams I've had very few that I can remember, but no doubt have dream't it many times. I no doubt had one that was horror related, like Sho when he was unable to bioboost, zoanoids were after me, and I can imagine what they would look like in real life chasing me over graveled pitch black alleys. The creepiest thing is when they would pop out of the dark, far more feral than depicted in the manga and video, but that eye glow they have... it was there, and it was one of the few nightmares that had me sweating. As for when I dream't of the Guyver, it was strange, and I don't remember the entirety But I know what i did, I ran throughout my city, in the area I grew up in. I was more or less joyriding the guyver. I guess I was trying to figure out it's abilities though I knew them already, but how to activate them? That aside, I was leaping over roofs, jumping incredible heights and running at incredible speeds, the vertigo was disorienting, but thrilling, and fun when you'd land from a huge fall and it felt like you landed on a cushion. I didn't fly though, nor do i recall what I looked like other than my arms and feet, they were dark brown, and felt... strange.Like I had tighter skin. I can only remember the first person view,I know I had a third person, but seemed to of forgotten. This dream is partly why i loved the prototype games, what the character did in the game was a lot of the same I did in the dream so many years ago.

Personally I think we should discuss things with the person running the spectrum.net. i just posted a message on the voting section over the anger it generated here and provided the links to the forums. Also, claiming they took it form our site is kinda hard to prove due to people who may be keeping a personal archive. (I admittedly have 15 of some of the newer chapters.) All this despite the watermarks. I looked up how to embed EXIF data into images for copyright images, with all the information you want about the hosting. here is the guide. http://www.texaschicksblogsandpics.com/how-to-embed-copyright-information-in-your-work/

I see, so it is our forums work? Well that sucks. the good thing is, it's on a popular site where it can gain a new fanbase, the bad, they took it from the forums work without asking. Two things that can be done, the first one is from now on, we should add a data mark to the images, it can be coded into the data itself, some sites had to pull down their stolen images because the image had a coded copyright notice. Second option, watermarks, with "URL" and "do not post on sites", "contact info" and "copyright disclaimer" all or just a select few, you can also use a logo. That suggestion you made, seems like a lot of work since you might have to edit each image file for a single member. This will suck up time and bandwidth i believe.

Woah, I was thinking this might be a new character, looked alien and Guyver-ish, maybe an advant? But damn, that was awesome. Also thank you guys for the translation effort.

Seems the Spectrum.net has started to host the Guyver, I was looking at the votes to see how much of it was approved by the community, an amazing gracious 97 percent. I didn't get a chance to read it yet because I'm crashing, but please take a look and scrutinize. http://view.thespectrum.net/series/guyver.html

Anyone ever used the replication tool? using it, you can copy the print pattern in the image in the intact session, just copy it over to some of the background noise and you can restore it. Because print pattern tends to be pixels made from the ink dot printing, it's tedious and virtually impossible to edit large sections, let alone without it becoming apparent. My old comic clean ups deserved ridicule on a few things, even though they were done with a lot of effort, luckily they turned out good enough. What I learned was that my efforts to clean up the original txt actually made the Kanji harder to read, though the art itself looked better.

R.I.P. good sir. Wait!? Does this mean the Guyver world... is actually our Bizarro world?

You could always copy and paste images of other zoanoids over a cropped background, and afterwards redraw them, you'd only need to actually do the main three as still and depending on the quality of the others you posted, you wouldn't have to redraw those at all.

Don't worry, I don't fault you for any of those reasons, most would of failed in the project, you folks actually pulled it off with some dub quality that other studio's fail at. I've had similar experiences with dealing with Mic work as well, I found that even with a video cam mic, you can produce some nice results. The wiring is the second biggest problem, since most wires and extension audio cords have an amplifier built in, you want one without to cut back on the humming audio background noise. Another thing is choosing the best room in the house, the bigger the room, the better in most cases, but some room like a small bathroom may be better because of wall material. I's always good to get samples in different areas. As for professional mic, you can splurge, but you Don't have too. There are always garage bands who eventually have to pawn good equipment. Hunt and shop the places you know they'll auction, you might get some fantastic audio equipment really cheap. As for me, I don't do much voice work, I don't have the time or training, but I am usually used as the announcement guy in my store, including pre-recordings, with crappy audio tools, and have had to improvise. Also used to dub characters for Mugen characters. But this is what I can relay from my experiences. Maybe I should make time for this sort of stuff again.

This is a fantastic job. Really well put together, though a bit odd because of the different quality of the recordings and acting level, but comparatively better than some of the dubs I grew up with.

Well the Jutsu (Impure Resurrection) used to revive the dead, revives them with the appearance, and body they had in death. So Madara, who's Resurrection suddenly looks much much younger than the Madara in the cave. I may of been wrong about Tobi being Madara's brother, but I was close, and that guy in the cave, well I'll just say I was close because of him.

Man, it's been pretty shocking. After all those plot ends to derail fans, it turned out to be who they first suspected. As for that other Guy who he is talking to in that cave, clearly not Madara, despite the claim.

I like the idea, I wish you guys luck. I don't have a stable connection, so I can't really participate, but I do like some of the ideas. I wasn't aware that Skype allows more than two people without a payed service membership. I usually used Oovoo, let's up to three people chat for free, and takes up lesser resources on a PC, so I've been sticking to that the last few years.

That also makes a good point. Hmm, I thought at one point, a mix between the two clans, just like Naruto is from a branch of two different clan's descended from the same Son of the Sage of Six path's, but we haven't run into more info about that. We wont really know what is going on until Naruto starts to peal apart that damn body. I will say this, he seems to recover his body through surgeries or jutsu, don't know hoe, but they is also a damn creepy scientist of sorts, remember that lab of his with eyes. Seems every major main villain is a genius scientist of sorts in naruto after the Zabuza arc.

Well Kabuto is using Sage mode, and considering his storyline, he may very well be survivor of the Uzumaki clan since their village was wiped out just before Naruto was born. Also you do have a point, Tobi stated Madara having very potent Chakra too, it's plausible his brother had the same factor. Since Tobi referred to himself having that quality, I'm inclined to think that this is the case. There haven't been any other Uzumaki's mentioned in the series either, only Uchia, so there are more clue's pointing towards Uchiha then Uzumaki. Still, I'll keep an eye out for that theory, it's an interesting one for sure.

Uchiha's were part of Konoha too, in fact the original Uchiha brother's helped to create that village, the fact an Uchiha secret meeting place is in Konoha would suggest it's him (and he knew about it). Tobi's abilities also seem to be connected to his Sharingan, he uses them extensively and most people can't do so unless they are an Uchiha, or someone with a modified body. I still feel he may be an Uchiha based on this and more. Also it should be noted, guys like Kakashi and even Denzo had a hard time using their second hand Sharingan. Kakashi has a limited use and a huge chakra drain, and Denzo tried to by[ass this problem with his modified body, but was limited as well since despite having a huge chakra reserve, his use of the Sharingan's just drained him of that fight with Susuke which only lasted a few minutes, in comparison Sasuke outlasted him despite having less chakra reserves.

I just noticed something, for a guy who is so stealthy... and arguably robotic, why would he do contradictory things? It could just be the method of Japanese storytelling in lei of Japanese Tokusatsu acting, but, if you think about it he likely isn't a machine as he does seem to have a personality. Why of all things would he be stealthy, then just stand around and announce his name, and his intentions and desires? Truly methodical, robot like methods wouldn't bother with it. In fact, I don't he's a machine, nor is he being efficient. I say this because if he was truly a robot he'd have little regard for much else, he wouldn't answer questions, make statements, or give out his intentions. He'd take what he wants and leave without a word, this would include battles. In fact, considering his abilities he could easily just pop in and out, and be gone before anyone could react to his abduction of the Mitsuki and Tetsuro. Also, for a guy trying to be stealthy, he didn't even care to kill any Zoalord's despite his hurried nature and previous need for secrecy. All this leads me to conclude that he is not only not a machine, but indeed sentient. Otherwise he wouldn't be making these sort of mistakes, unless, well unless he wanted all those in Chronos to know who he is. Another issue here is of course Sho's childhood friends. Why kidnap them unless he needs to lure the Guyver? Before he was going after zoalord's crystals, but now Guyver? That can be anything, though chances are it's to manipulate him... like always. But considering the situation, it could be that he was also saving them, (though doesn't look like it either). It's possible he wants Sho in the game by saving them too and keeping them away from Cronos, his current enemies. But hell, for all we know this guy could simply want them for a simply tea party, become new zoalord's, or some other nonesense.

Oh No Salkafar! Don't bring that in here! Otherwise we'll people will start making Guyver edits of that. XD Oh and fantastic work alkanfel009. Love the detail in transition. I don't think Takaya did females because they'd either look creepy, or out right furry. But your presentation is actually pretty cool.

So wanted that as a kid, a bight between those two. Dragonzord was cooler then MechGodzilla by a ton.

Well there is some degree of that stuff existing. I mean, behaviors have been proven to be genetic. So in a way one aspect of a persons personality can pass from body to body with each new generation, and reincarnation I think is somewhat plausible. However, true memories, even with reincarnation is limited, you are bound to lose them over time. One of the biggest problems with a new reincarnated body is that, even if you are a reborn human being, the Brain isn't, it's not advanced enough to remember the majority of things from birth. From my own personal experience I can remember things clearly as far back as 2 years of age, and I have only faint memories of me as a new born, that's far better then the majority of humans. If I am a reincarnated person, I have no retention of any memories, though it's plausible I am. I've been described as an old man in a young person, all my habits, and even many of my tastes are archaic, and I find appeal in the strangest things that are easily outdated. I am naturally attracted to vintage movies and fancy old methods of clothing, packaging, and classic pre-baby boomer culture. Maybe I should be hypnotized as a test. From these experiences I think natural retention of memory is not possible. And with memory goes much of your self awareness. However, I shouldn't of said "are not" because if we can transform our memories and experiences into electronics or other artificial forms of energy, we could possibly prolong or even have eternal memories. Self awareness is a different matter, that's a borderline we have yet to physically explore at all. One last thing, you are totally right about energy, we haven't discovered all forms of energy yet. Aether, if we do discover and study more forms, I hope we run into the type we can call souls, that would be spectacular.

Another possibility is that he may be Alchy's prototype, or for all we know another ancient Zoalord form the time of Uranus. It's all sketchy since the only hint of his identity has been his Uranus armor (saying it aloud sounds ridiculous) and his Zoalord abilities.

I think it should of ended with the Ichigo loosing is powers. Maybe a sequel Manga would of been better. Still though, the fillers have been pretty good with Bleach, unlike Naruto with it's repulsive filler plots and directing. In fact I think the fillers in bleach in the last few years have really helped to prolong the series. I was hoping for an end though so they could start a new series and just get past all the plot holes the series had, start new, and maybe get rid of characters that are useless. For example, Chad is my favorite character, but is utterly useless to the plot. He's just obligated to be there because he has fans, but the mangaka doesn't really care to add much to his development. The same applies to most of the background cast. I love Bleach, but most of it as just become about the fights, another DBZ, but with swords and any power you want in your sword being the gimmick. It's obvious it should be way more then that.

Well one of the theories is that Energy as it's used simply fades/converts into the fabric of reality until it is reformed into our plain of existence once more, often the method of reforming the energy is some form of manipulation by matter. If you want to make sense of things, then maybe one should build a chart. Sort of like the food chain in an ecosystem, I think Energy in the human body should be viewed in a similar manner. One can even compare it to a machine. Not one is wrong in these views, nor contradictory, in fact I believe these different views compliment one another. Chi is energy/electricity that courses through our bodies. They often take up the form of chemicals but the end result is always a electric current that travels through our nerves after a serious of events. From the start of our birth, this energy is produced in the body by converting outside matter, then storing it inside our bodies in one form or another. This is evident since we depend on a womb to grow and develop and nutrients, a chemical energy are fed to us until we slowly become more self efficient. Our Will directs this energy, but our will is also the energy stored in our brains. When not actively willing something, our energy is automated by the storage unit; the Brain which does much of the work, with only our Will directing major decisions but our brain sustains everything else, it's been outlined since birth as to what it will do with our bodies energy since the formation of DNA. DNA is another contained form of chemical energy that forms a blueprint, it not only forms our bodies but a part of also forms our will as certain aspects of personality lean towards certain thinking and ability from the DNA, but our will can push us past that. As we use energy it fades away from our bodies, it usually takes another form such as chemical compound excretions, thus in turn serving as a source of energy for something else. Think sweat and poop, and how it dissipates into something else, or is eaten by flies who in turn go through a similar cycle, in turn feeding something else. When we die our energy slowly changes into chemical energy again. Thus we become energy in some form or another. Some consider Chi the same as soul, if this is the case then Energy = Souls = Chi, and thus some aspect of us can be considered eternal. However energy changes forms, even if it is the same energy, it will eventually lose touch as to what it was. So though we may be eternal as far as energy is concerned, our self awareness and very memories are not. Chemicals, humans, anything physical is a form of Matter. Thus matter is also a form of energy, matter also helps to generate more energy, but anti-matter (also energy) seems to simply absorb more energy from matter. In this way it seems to cancel out Matter. Perhaps a sort of balance? Since energy can't be destroyed there has to be some mechanic to keep too much from forming as either state. Life is fascinating in that it isn't a balance like Matter, Energy, and Anti-Matter, instead it is a chain of, moving from one form to another before eventually being recycled. ...Yes I know it sounds weird, but if any of this makes sense then maybe you have some idea as to what I'm thinking and maybe you guys can build a chart. I don't know, people easily disagree with my logic, though it can't be dismissed nor completely be agreed upon.

I can't speak for everyone, but I think it would be weak story telling. Jade Tatsu made a thread about weak story telling and this was one of the concerns, apollon coming out of nowhere. I refuse to believe he could be a new player for that very reason. it would be lame, and takaya sensei doesn't do lame. I don't know, that rapid aging once the Zoacrystal was removed... I found rather lame and overused. It's been done so many times, and after all the crazy cool stuff he's shown (A Zoalord turns out out be a freaking forest... and he used gravity in an form that One Piece ended up copying later) I was let down he used such a typical plot device as rapid aging, maybe it was a good idea 20 years ago, but it's been done too many times at this point, especially in American comics and anime. I won't fault him for it since it works to tease us about Apollyon. It's sorta like how he helped Pioneer the reluctance teenage hero forced by evil, but today it's been done too many times since he's pioneered it. Frankly, I don't think adding a new character is a bad plot addition at all. Provided it's presented in a very good way, something our beloved Mangaka is adept at, we should be pleased. Isn't the fact that we continue to debate and drool over this mystery character evidence alone that he's already delivered a new character we like? His hidden identity, regardless of being a new character or an old one is still going to be likely badass. I think we should go along for the ride, tide it out in the entertainment, and so long as the character doesn't turn out to be a freakin Teenage Alien Ninja Turtle... then I am to be pleased...

Oh I remember this, we talked about this years ago, recall a few fans showcasing it about. I'm beginning to see where the Anime borrowed some of it's story telling form.
