Then they may want the Zoa crystals first THEN they will blow it up. Perhaps a few of them have over ridden their fear of the events on earth with curiosity.

Well, I'd think the Creators would care about someone creating more Zoa crystals for a few reason. One is probably out of principle and and perfection, they closed that project and it was supposed to be closed. 2nd, since that door forced itself to remain open they might be concerned of any loose ends that could come back to bite them. I mean they sent a huge asteroid but somehow humans survived and they might want to be 100 percent safe and re-take what they see as rightfully theirs, off spring Zoa crystals.

He was pretty ready to fight Purgstall though and a Zoalord is someone that has to be fought with a Gigantic.

I didn't think they COULD take them off so they burst out. Never mind I see the helmet on the ground. I thought they were like temporary warriors with short life spans and couldn't get out of their armor unless to fight. Sure didn't look like removable helmets.

I just noticed that the Libertus addressed Shizu in English "yes ma'am!" Another thing I notice is that Guyots two spider guys almost seem surprised that they're transforming. I see them grabbing their heads like they can't control themselves and are surprised. I wonder what that's about.

And man, Vulcuria is stacked in that last page! I want to know what she's saying. Probably nothing about her motivation but still... Guess I should add 'evil is sexy' to tvtropes unless she plans to change sides but I doubt that.

*spoilers* Alright a callback to book 5! Looks like those henchmen were more beetle-spiders after all! And more Valcuria too! Just hope Aptom gets a little more action.

I put that there, because I swear there's a translated interview where Takaya said that. We should have a link somewhere.

I was reading over the tvtropes where I was reminded of it, I listed the construction of the quilt as a crowning moment of awesome/heart warming. If he did I wonder if he'd mention it in the next book. Be such a huge shame if it got thrown away on accident

I like Barcus a lot, he's given us a lot of insight into Chronos. He kind of helps form an interesting trio with Archanfel and Imakarum, and had a second one with Shin and Purgstall. Yeah he did kill Sho's father that's why I wrote that Barcus is 97.9 percent of a complete monster, he grieved for Li and Waferanos and showed honest guilt FOR ONCE. While Guyot and the rogue trio are 100 percent monsters.

My overall favorite is Shin because he seems to have become the heart of the 12. We hear his thoughts a lot, tries to protect civilians when possible, and I couldn't help but feel sympathy when he sees the destruction Khan is causing and asks what is happening to his Chronos. And Purgstall's Zoaform is awesome, very knight-like and very Ultramanesque. Archanfel since he has the most backstory and personality of the whole Council, same with Imakarum, a knight templar that I have moments of empathy for. For Zoaform alone it's a draw between Li and Caerleon's. Guyot is up there because his form is cool and he's a villain, though a little more personality would be nice.

Kind of intentional, one of my favorite monsters and one of the earliest. Sadly my artist has pretty much dropped out which doesn't surprise me. Oh well I do someday plan to re-visit this idea, now I'm working on prose.

Man this topic is cool, I found the newest Aptom one, but what the heck is a molecule acclerator anyway?

Glad someone has posted something Hammering out the story to finer details at the moment.

I've been working on my spin on the henshin hero concept. I must admit it does have quite a few similiarities to Guyver, but hey it's one of my faves. Sort of Guyver meets Ultraman but with a darker tone. I'm passing feedback onto my artist, care to see some of the monsters and a rough sketch of the main character. Main here, rough, first thing I told her was 'anime atonomy', he'll have a more skeleton colored flesh and fight better at night. No energy attacks like Ultra, more of a savage melee fighter. http://yfrog.com/07project007j One giant monster, Barultan. http://yfrog.com/58project005j Another, Largis. http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/8895/project006.jpg

I figure he 's nude because he can't replicate clothing, just Zoanoids. And I believed he to be up there on the female fan list because, well you guessed the nudity thing. Believe it or not DBZ is/was popular in the U.S. because women liked all the ripped guys getting their clothes torn. And Aptom's got the bad boy thing going, I mean Agito is kind of the slimy type and he doesn't wear shades and leather jackets. Plus Aptom's always looked American in my opinion so he's sort of got that exotic foreigner going. Then there's that scar and the fact he lost his friends, women will go 'ooooh poor Aptom! He's just a hurt soul that Sho torrmented!' Never mind what he did to Mizuki in book five. So those are my reasons for assuming.

Yes that certainly kicked him up a notch. Though that's about 14 books inbetween his bad ass rampage and his super Zoalord kill. I'm not hating on the guy, he's one of my favorites, but it was a tad jarring that after the time skip he gets his butt handed to him left and right by Zektole, Imakarum, Enzyme III, at least he smacked Sho around in book 14. But I wish he had a win of some sort as form IV before gaining that losing streak. I did add his plan to kill the first Enzyme IIIs in book 12 as a crowning moment of awesome and added it to TVtropes. Takaya gave some cool insight on Guyot. I'm hoping to learn some of his backstory and motives, perhaps there was somethign tragic after all since I've seen him as a 'mustach evil for the sake of it' villain. I do wonder if he's going to be the Big Bad or if it's Archanfel or maybe Imakarum.

He did start his climb to bad ass by getting pretty close to beating Guyver 1, then absorbing most of Team Five, though he did start losing once he got his Zektole look and after the time skip.

Whoa did Takaya say that fans send in 1,000 cranes in memory of Murakami? Whoa again. I'm not surprised he had a lot of female fans but I'm expecting Aptom to have his share too. I want to hear what he has to say on Hayami. I figured he was supposed to be the character avatar. Okay I guess Tetsuro can be his eyes and Hayami can still be the author-character. At least he wasn't over powered.

Hey I could have sworn I once brought up this idea and nobody said that it was an interesting theory! I guess it was the wrong time.

I keep wanting to go to Legend and PMing you if you knew anything. Then I'd go 'doh!' But I see you are here and know nothing as well.

Don't know if this is the best topic or not but I just want to say I had no idea that a model for Yentsui came out! I just thought they did Guyot, Barcus, Alk, and Purstall. Cool.

Well!? Don't keep us in suspense man! How are the translations? I'm not getting mine for two-three more days and if they're bad I need a heads up!

Well if it gets to you first due to the chance of me fumbling the payment, do tell us how the translation is? I'm hoping for some book 6-8 stuff here, not kinda awkward 4-5 skills here.

U.S. money. See I got you note ,and thank you for your patience by the way, and then I got his reply. Well I know you seem to know your stuff but I went with what the web site guy said. I mean that's 1.16 towards something else. Though what I don't want is to go a week and then have him say 'you're short.' and then I'd have to wait another week until he gets my email and then ships out. And by then book 10 will probably be out.
