Hmm, surprised no one else answered you yet... Okay, basic break down for teleportation is that we simply don't know. We only have the one time the Gigantic Cocoon traveled through the Boost Dimension and aside from going back and forth like normal Guyver Units do the Gigantic hasn't demonstrated this ability since. In theory though I would suspect the Cocoon may be required since it is the only part that is seen going back and forth, the Gigantic pretty much always goes into and out of the Cocoon. Possibly this could be because the rest of the Relic CM (since there was two merged together when the Cocoon first formed) is inside the Cocoon and is the part that does the actual Dimension hopping. Though it is possible the Gigantic may be able to teleport itself as is, being part Relic. After all the Relic teleported the human companions as well as G1 and G3 in Cocoons when the Relic was destroyed to apparently different locations. Suggesting the Relic has the ability to send things besides itself through and consequently this ability may be part of the Gigantic. However, until such time as the Gigantic again demonstrates this ability we can only speculate. As for the Hyper Sensors, I don't believe they reach world wide but telepathy has been shown to reach over long distances. At least for strong impressions and Zoalords demonstrated on X-Day that at least with a Psycho Wave Amplifier they can control Zoanoids anywhere on the planet. So Sho may have simply had a mental bond/link with Mizuki and subconsciously sensed she was in danger and went to her aid, just my opinion though as Takaya never explained that part.

Could be that they were one of the earlier precursors to us, like the Neanderthals. Similar but not exactly us, just bred for violence capacity and us more creative version evolved later and developed civilization. Don't think the Creators wanted philosophers and such for their army. So we may be the watered down and more well rounded version, but since the Guyver effect is integral part of life on this planet we still retain the ability to go Guyver. Can't really compare Archanfel though, he was born a Zoalord.

Should be fine as long as they let you upload stuff and work with html.

Officially...Manga wise, we basically got two time frames to consider, the earlier stated time that the Creators left was 20 million years ago. This coincides with when the Arctic started to ice up (there was no polar caps then). The other time frame comes when Barcus was describing Silha island and stated Archanfel had been sleeping there for 10th's of thousands of years. But Silha island was formed by continental drift, so I believe the 20 Million Year mark. Another interesting fan note, Silha island was named after the island mentioned in Mandevilles Journals of the far east. Time frame is during explorer period with notable names like Marco Polo, etc. The island of Silha was 800 miles around and had the mountain upon which Adam and Eve wept for the loss of their son Able when Cain killed him. Guess Takaya liked the kicked out of Eden theme of the island and used it for Archanfel's island. He even mentions Mandeville in both the Manga and VDF. Btw, according to the VDF the creators made fairies for espionage

You could also watch it on http://zeitgeistmovie.com/main.htm (Google Video) Basically it's a propaganda video about conspiracies. Most of which if you follow conspiracy theories you would already know. Personally I think the movie is total BS, I put it right up there with moon landing was rigged theories never mind we got a mirror up there to reflect lasers that couldn't have put itself up there, but that's just my opinion. Here's a review you could read, http://www.boingboing.net/2007/08/06/jay-k...-reviews-z.html

Hint: Look at guyverfanatic's signature!

Yes, I agree, I don't think the head beam can be maintained indefinitely. But the Guyver is always generating or absorbing heat so it wouldn't take him long before it can be fired again. Book 10, pages 176-177. It's clearer just to call him Imakarum now to more easily tell him apart from the former good Murikami... Unlike Guyot, Imakarum can use some of his power in human form and in one of his thought bubbles he even states his gravitational power is more potent than Guyot's. I think the Gigantic Armor is mainly just a lot thicker. For example GG1 got hit by a hail of gravity Bullets from Imakarum and they blew fist size holes into the armor but none drew blood. It takes less damage to draw blood from a normal Guyver. I believe this may be in part because the Relic organism becomes part of the Guyver and so the Relic's ability to quickly adapt to damage also applies to the Gigantic. . . Like when GG3 sliced off his own leg to escape a trap from Yentsui and Waferdanos, there wasn't much blood and the flow quickly stopped. I believe that example also shows that the Gigantic just doesn't go on the Guyver but becomes part of the Guyver as the leg didn't look like it was encased in armor but rather had grown to the proportions of the Gigantic. So in a way the Gigantic is tougher than the regular Guyver, also the Gigantic doesn't seem to be as effected by pain. But the Armor can be damaged, as the Gravity Bullets showed, as well as other examples like Purg'stall blasting off the swords with his lightning bolts. So I think material strength is the same, just bigger and altered biology makes it tougher. Like trying to hurt a Gorilla versus a man. The Gorilla can be 800 pounds and a lot harder to hurt, even though it's flesh and blood just like the man. An interesting comparison really, since a Gorilla can have the strength of 20 men. The Gigantic however doesn't seem to have faster regeneration, in fact we haven't seen the Gigantic regenerate except to re-attach a severed leg and when the Gigantic is first activated and is drawing energy from the Bio-Boost. So the rate of regeneration may be the same as a Standard Unit, though the Greater mass may just make it seem like that. As for how fast the Guyver can fly, like SE stated we don't officially know how fast the Guyver can fly. The Guyver speed has not been officially stated, we can only guess estimate. Though you may see some specific speeds given on other Guyver fan sites, the earliest such numbers state the Guyver can run up to 250 MPH and fly up to 300 MPH. The origin of these numbers are unknown and thus can't be verified... I use them on my own site because those were the only numbers I could ever find and because they seem to make sense, but use your own judgement on whether they make sense to you. We only know that the Guyver can run fast enough to shoot past a car, but don't know how fast the car was moving for comparison. We also only know the Guyver can fly fast enough that if you are looking right at them that they can seem to almost disappear, but human vision is fairly easy to fool and you don't need to be moving that fast to appear to have vanished. The Gigantic is also a mystery but has been seen flying through the clouds, suggesting flight speed equal to a fast plane... Considering he was flying from Arizona to Colorado, couple hundred miles away and was apparently not worried about being intercepted. The back thrusters of the Gigantic do provide rocket like acceleration, it appears when GG1 used them to catch up to the Branchai Brothers that he actually broke the sound barrier but that could have been just Gravity Knuckles just creating a sonic boom. But the shockwave appeared to be spreading out flat, suggesting the former.

The Gigantic head beam is 5x the standard one, but that is another good example SE. Though it could be that the hats just fell off when the policemen would have jerked in pain as their bodies dissolved and then floated along with the liquidated remains... Though the scene in question is from the new Anime series and we have weird scenes like the hole in Enzyme's gut kept on changing position. So the artist may have just put them there for dramatic effect and to show exactly what the liquid flowing past our view actually was...

The Gigantic is only stated as being 20x more powerful, thousand of tons stomping even divided by 20x still leaves hundreds of tons which is more than enough to turn most metals into playdo. Just look up how much tonnage they use for stamping coins. The scene is where Imakarum hits G3, right after G3 failed to take his head off with the Vibrational Sword and only managed to break his sun glasses and Imakarum slams him with what looked like a pressure cannon (had the same swirling appearance) with it and then lets G3 collapse and fall to the ground below. Zoalord Armor probably varies between the Zoalords but they appear to depend on their Barrier Shield in most cases, and they don't appear capable of advance regeneration. So technically that would mean the Guyver Armor is superior, but only the Gigantic has a Barrier Shield.

My summarized opinion is that the Bio-Armor is Diamond Tough, skin like reactive similar to how Zektole's work, and heat resistant to over 5000 degrees. Key examples... Armor getting hit by Head Beam, Gigantic getting stomped on by Dragonlord Khan, Guyver Walking through Darzerb's Napalm Breath, Bullets hitting the Armor in anime, Guyver 3 being hit by a Pressure Cannon like blast from Imakarum . . . among other examples.

I'm assuming you want an elaboration on the defensive capabilities of the Guyver Bio-Armor? Do you want a complete theoretical explanation or just a summary? (Note before you answer be aware when I mean complete I mean enough text to fill over a dozen pages printed out)

Seems this one will have some mech action... http://io9.com/5017737/new-ways-to-kill ... s-marauder

The whole slurping up effect can be considered the shredding part, since it basically liquidated his body. But yes, it could indeed have been a real black hole. Making it technically more powerful than the Zoalord type used by Guyot and Imakarum, both of which needed to absorb enough mass/energy before it would become a true black hole and why GG3 was able to destroy it with the Giga Smashers by destroying the Gravity Points that were generating the effect.

I would imagine so, my theory is that the Gigantic Exceed basically performed a Pressure Cannon maneuver but channeled the Exceed's full gravitational power until a mini-black hole was formed. He then just focused the gravity field he was using to generate the mini-black hole to then fire it. So your basic description matches up to how I think it works too. General rule of thumb for black holes is that the smaller they are the shorter they will exist before evaporating. A black hole with the mass of say a mountain could have been created shortly after the Big Bang and would now be reaching the point that it'll stop being a black hole and would explode with the power of about 100 Giga Tons of TNT, as the event horizon finally collapse. While smaller black holes, like those possibly created by smashing two atoms together in a super collider... would basically only last an instant. So it is possible that the Exceed fired a true mini-black hole but it Hawking Radiation half-life basically was only long enough to perform the attack and go into space before it evaporated. Another interesting aspect of Black Holes is that they generate shearing force, basically distortions in the gravity field that would tear anything approaching a black hole apart and/or into speghetti (figeratively speaking). But super massive black holes, like those that may exist in the center of galaxies like our own Milkyway, are big enough that the event horizon extends beyond the gravimetric shearing effect and so those black holes can suck things in without them first being destroyed in the process. Ergo smaller black holes get very messy before you even approach the event horizon.

There has been no indications that the Guyver can manipulate the Pressure Cannon after it is fired that I know of. Technically, to do so would require manipulating gravitational energy at a distance but just like a magnetic field this is easier said than done. The Guyver would basically have to project a gravitational field around the entire area that they would want to control the path of the Pressure Cannon and then focus the field to guide the Pressure Cannon. This of course would require immense power, as well as advance energy manipulation capability, and I really only see the Gigantic as having the potential to pull it off but not even the Gigantic has shown any sign of having that ability, but then again it may be an ability Sho hasn't discovered yet. Just like the Exceed form. Incidentally, of the two known Gravity Power Zoalords, neither Imakarum nor Guyot have shown that sort of ability either. Though they do show they can control there Gravity Points from a distance but that's equivalent to the Guyver firing off its Gravity Control Orb and being able to control it from a distance. So right now it seems gravity energy is mainly just focused and fired in a variety of ways, Imakarum for example can use gravity to create energy blades that he can fire off (like that chopping motion he did as Murikami) and more complex forms like that vortex attack that both he and Archanfel have been seen using (according to the VDF that was a gravity based attack too). Though the Gigantic has been shown to be able to control severed limbs from a distance. At least a severed limb with an intact power amp crystal, when GG3 remotely controlled his severed leg and used it to kick Yentsei from behind and then flew it back to himself and had it re-attach itself. Basically it appears that the power amps (note the literal translation has them as gravity amps) basically take gravity energy and amplify it but they can also be used to siphon energy from the Boost Dimension (as shown by the Exceed form) and can also apparently manipulate gravitational energy for other uses. Such as the Gigantic Power Punch (Literal translation is Gravity Knuckle) and the Barrier Shield.

You don't have to follow religion to have faith, just believe in yourself and your sense of right and wrong. And if you are lucky, find like minded People to share company with. Matters of the heart and spirit should never be limited to just words and traditionalized ceromony.

You're welcome, just remember it's just a theory based on the assumption that it works like how black hole physics suggests it should behave. I read loads of magazines and books... Popular Science and Mechanics, like PCPhoto, etc are mainly good for the upcoming products I may want to buy previews. Science not so much but occassionally they show something interesting. . . Web Sites like Science Daily and New Scientist are far better for keeping up with general science R&D in nice laymen layout. Accessing science and tech journals are also good when I want to know something in more detail. I also read computer books and magazines, like CPU, NAPP, and MaximumPC. While websites like Gizmodo, io9, life hacker, etc are other sites I visit daily.

Nope, not a professor, though I probably got the mindset of one. I tend to think a lot, as in never stops thinking. If I got something interesting to think about I can stay awake 2-3 days straight. . . Gets me in trouble some times though as I don't always transcribe everything I've thought about and tend to summarize with gaps I sometimes have to fill in later to correct confusion. . . Anyway, Explosive decoupling is just like it sounds... the pressure cannon can cause some things like concrete to basically explode like it was hit by an explosion. Example is scene in new Anime where G3 used three single handed pressure cannons to explode the ground around G2, blasting enough debree into the air to disorientate G2 and letting G3 go on his way unhindered, just before G2 has his final confrontation with G1. But basically yes, the pressure cannon collapses and the combination of shockwave and vacuum left behind, as I figure it anyway, creates an implosion then explosion effect, kinda like the thunderclap of a bolt of lightning is created by the vacuum created by the 30,000 degree heat of the bolt of lightning that super heats the air upon its passage and leaves a vacuum in its wake. Since nature abhores a vacuum the air rushes in and creates the shock wave that we hear as a thunderclap... Essentially translating the gravimetric potential, gravity is basically potential kinetic energy, into the target mass and causing it move outward explosively... Does that make sense now?

For further explanation on black hole evaporation you should look up Hawking Radiation Basic summary is that black holes leak and this eventually causes them to lose energy until they collapse and explode as their gravity drops below the intensity needed to maintain the event horizon. For the Pressure Cannon, this basically means the gravity ball is losing energy as it travels towards its target and this energy is generating a sonic boom (translation: Pressure/Shock wave). The exact process was never explained officially. So I'll just give you my theory on how it works, since we are both partial to the black hole explanation. As I see it, the whole process starts as gravitational energy that is channeled from the Gravity Control Orb, through the special internal organs the Guyver uses to utilize gravity energy until it reaches the special organs in the wrists that then focus the gravitational energy to the palms of the hands. Focusing the gravitational energy until it forms a spinning gravitational energy mass that collapses into virtual mini-black hole (virtual because it doesn't have the actual mass or energy of a true black hole so the effect only lasts as long as the gravitational energy can maintain the effect) The spinning action lets the pressure cannon draw in and form a pressurized layer of air around itself, essentially a continuous shock wave (aka sonic boom) Basically this is what we would call an Accretion Disk The mini-black hole itself would then be isolated by a vacuum layer as the spinning layer isolates it, minimizing energy loss until the weapon hits its target. The Cannon is then fired at this point and when it hits its target the pressure/shock-layer hits like a cannonball, which then exposes the mini-black hole that then slurps up the target mass disrupted by the initial impact. But not being a true black hole it quickly collapses, probably phasing the slurped up mass out of the continuum (probably into the boost dimension as one theory has it that gravity can freely flow between dimensions), leaving the characteristic hole as all that is left behind. My theory for Zektole is that his armor is strong enough to resist the pressure layer of the impact and without breaking up the mini-black hole doesn't have the energy to slurp up his whole body and so it collapses without slurping anything up. Against dense but brittle material the pressure cannon can also create explosive decoupling... Powered Zerebubuth was able to shield himself because his spikes could generate a type of vibrational energy field that would disrupt the pressure layer of the pressure cannon and cause it to collapse before impact. Thus completes my theoretical explanation

Yup, yes, yeah, affirmative, positive, Aye, definitely. WG2's and WG units aren't really all that different to begin with, and the Matrix is basically the big equalizer as it allows both host and unit to be reconfigured and upgraded. So it falls to the host to set the limits.

Depends who you ask, according to the VDF translation it is described as a sort of compressed virtual black hole that evaporates on its way to the target and produces the shock wave that gives the Pressure Cannon its name. But according to the booklet for the new Anime it seems to be described more like a worm hole that collapses and produces a shock wave directed upon the target. Both descriptions are technically valid for a gravity weapon but the way the Pressure Cannon has been shown in the Manga suggest to me that it is the former rather than the later, but that's just my opinion.

Star Destroyer is a good website to look up just how powerful Star War weapons are. Many of the materials used in Star Wars would give Adamantium a run for its money. Like they got stuff that is similarly rare like Adamantium but can withstand even the destruction of a planet. A data cube was protected with just a coating of the stuff and was perfectly fine after the Death Star had blown the planet up in Star Wars Battle Front video game. The Guyver Bio-Armor is tough but not that tough. But as you pointed out Light Sabers would have problems with such incredibly durable materials and thus Adamantium would stand a better chance against a Light Saber than HFB, at least a Guyver HFB. Light Sabers do interact physically with matter, the same way they can interact with each other without going right through each other by whatever energy field helps contain the energy of the LS. So that living weapon you mentioned may just generate a energy field that prevents contact with the Light Saber by repelling it. And/or it may be composed of elements the LS would have trouble with.

Keyboards are a problem on all HP notebooks, so be careful regardless. It's very easy to break it, just type softly and don't let anyone who slams keys to ever use it. Should really have gotten yourself a tough book if you're going to put it through that sort of laptop care as your last few Especially the water proof ones, some like Dell even offer military discounts of 10% off (can sign up to get a special purchase card from them) and in most cases that can be combined with other sale discounts. Making up the difference in cost of tough books and giving you more options next time. Or consider support issues, Panasonic for example has teamed with Tobyhanna (a renowned military service depot). So you can get support for Panasonic tough books world-wide and is open to all military branches. Not to mention you can check military resellers for rugged, water proof, 2.5" HD's. So your hard drive will survive even if the rest of your notebook doesn't.

Well there are a whole host of factors to consider in terms of computer power. The biggest hurdle in home systems is the motherboard, since it limits the speed by which all the other components can communicate with each other. The CPU may not be 10 GHz, but the processing power has increased equivalently. They just get more done with fewer cycles. Which is one reason why they stopped promoting the clock speed for CPU's as it is not a true indicator of the processor power. Increased clock cycles do help but are offset by increase power consumption and consequential increased heat generation that present material manufacturing can't deal with without major cooling systems like they have in super computers. There is also design, specialized processors like GPU's are actually far better at number crunching than CPU's, which aren't specialized, and is why you may have read up on some recent cheap super computers having been created from a couple of GPU's. Ratio to a CPU with the same setup was quoted as 250 to 1 for each GPU. Course GPU's aren't as flexible as CPU's but all those gaming systems out there do provide a level of specialized power that they are now starting to take advantage of. Both OSX 10.6 snow leopard and Adobe Phototshop CS4 will use GPU acceleration. Photoshop for example will be able to handle a 2GB image file like the present photoshop can handle a web image. But yeah, computer power is increasing at a steady pace.

An HP, hmm... you have my sympathies Whatever you do don't ever hit that keyboard hard, they're all plastic (including the spring mechanism) and easy to shatter. Saw someone casually hit one with a magazine by accident and keys just went flying, with quite a few of them perminently cracked. Anyway, I know they have external drives up to 500 GB at least that are bus powered and don't require an external power adapter. (Just check that it says bus powered when buying one) Though depending on your area they may be harder to find, so you may have to get it online. But so long as system files aren't placed on the second drive you should be able to add any other drive that the laptop can handle. So usually you just have to check what hard drives your laptop supports, otherwise it should just be plug and play. Though you may have to format the drive but that's a fairly straight forward procedure, windows has the utility to perform it. The only time you really have to worry about hard drive compatability is with a raid setup or whether your system came pre-configured to use the 2nd drive for backup or something like that, since many offer the option to use the 2nd drive for recovery instead of providing a recovery disc. Though depending on RPM and how stable your environment is you may want to do regular disc burn backups. You could also mirror your primary drive onto your present 2nd drive and just keep it in case your primary crashes as an emergency backup, with most of your files on the second drive you could be back in busines within minutes that way.
