  1. Besides a lot of modern clothing is composed of synthetic materials and not just chemically treated. And DNA breaks down quickly if not preserved. Detergent and Bleech are not DNA's friend As for Hair and Nails, just like the scars, the unit simply restores them to the state they were in at the time of bonding. The Unit records far more than just DNA. Not to mention our DNA contains far more information about us than you would think. Average body hair length for example is actually part of your DNA, just like all animals our hair gets shed at specific lengths. Only our head hair really grows continuously without much shedding, at least normally. Just like our DNA determines how tall we grow, etc. Add that all life generates bio-energy fields that take the form and pattern of our physical form means there are other ways for the Unit to take a snap shot of the host physical form. Hair length, scar patterns, etc can all be viewed as energy patterns and energy levels which the unit can replicate exactly when regenerating a host. But cloths, being dead, don't produce such energy fields. They are just raw material and without a pattern to draw upon to regenerate them then the unit will have a tough time recreating them. So in most cases the cloths get destroyed when the area they are contained is destroyed, though given time the unit does seem capable of limited regeneration of cloths but that may be due more to the host unit mental link than the unit actually doing it on its own as there are times when the host is seen with different cloths after deactivating the unit.
  2. Well believe it or not it is all a logical progression from how even a basic Guyver Unit works. When a Unit is activated it not only bonds with a host but draws in energy from the boost dimension to increase its mass. G1 for example weighs about 575 pounds, which is about 4 times heavier than someone of Sho's height should be. This also explains how a Guyver can regenerate so quickly as the Gravity Control Orb is continuously siphoning energy from the Boost Dimension. Basically showing that the Unit can direct convert energy into matter and vise versa when the Unit de-activates. The Gigantic follows this same function but unlike the regular Guyver unit it doesn't really have a limit. They showed the link with the fact the Gigantic falls off shortly after using the Giga Smashers because they use up so much energy that the unit can no longer maintain the Gigantic form. The similarly in power level of both version of the Gigantic consequently also show why there is a lesser difference in height between them as Gigantic than their regular Guyver forms show. But just like the Gravity Control Orb, the Gigantic Power Amps can siphon energy from the Boost Dimension. Unlike them however the Amps can handle and channel far more energy and that is what Sho used to make the Gigantic get bigger. He just basically opened the flood gates, so to speak, and kept on siphoning until he had grown to about 60 meters tall. To return to normal he just has to release the energy back into the Boost Dimension.
  3. I wouldn't be so quick to conclude that since it entirely depends on how much energy it took to create the hyper gate the asteroid was sent through. As I pointed out the Creators did not have to accelerate or do anything else to the asteroid except point the exit point of the hyper gate at the Earth. Objects in space are already moving tens of thousands of miles per hour, so all they had to do was point it in the right direction and a jump through hyper space could do that without directly effecting the asteroid at all. It would have been the same if they had used a worm hole for example, as far as the asteroid was concerned it was just moving as all objects in space are moving. Also since everything from Guyvers to Relic ships have been shown to readily travel to and from hyper space then it is conceivable that it did not take the Creators much power at all to send the Asteroid at the Earth. Besides the gate itself could have provided the power, leaving the Creators just the task of opening and closing it, since we know that the Guyvers use the same system to draw power and thus means the energy needed to create the portal could have come from the portal itself. The only thing we know for sure is it took a lot of energy on Alkanphel's part to destroy the Asteroid and unlike the Hyper Gate Alkanphel had to provide all that power himself, which to me is far more impressive. No, because the view in question of the asteroid smashing into the Earth is not a side by side view. Though at an angle the asteroid is still located above the planet and thus is closer to our point of view than the Earth. And closer means it will appear larger than it would have if it was side by side with the Earth. Remember the Asteroid is not only closer but the Earth is further away, which makes it appear smaller even as it makes the Asteroid appear larger. This is what you get when you place one sphere shaped object over another sphere shaped object. You have to add the radius of both to the depth size distortion factor. The asteroid was probably bigger than our moon but I think there is enough distortion in its size that it is not the size of Mars. As it is your size estimate puts the Asteroid at about the size of Mars but at that position the depth perception would distort the size by about 30-50% then, which would make it larger than your estimate. So the asteroid has to be smaller than Mars to appear Mars size in that image. But people aren't thousand of miles in diameter! Neither are people shaped like spheres. So I would say your original estimate is only between 70% to 80% accurate, still bigger than our moon but smaller than Mars. Maybe about the size of Mercury. I think you're confusing the impact explosion with the size of the asteroid pieces. Of which I think only 3-4 (think one was just barely visible on the far side of the planet) pieces are shown hitting the Earth and none of them were the size of Spain or France. As I mentioned before relatively tiny objects can create nuclear scale impacts. Something just 50-60 meters, basically the size of a large skyscraper, in diameter can create a 500 kiloton impact explosion. The A-Bombs dropped on Japan during WWII were only 10-15 kilotons each for comparison. In fact if anything close to a mile in size hit then there would have been no survivors, let alone anything the size of even a small country which would pretty much still wipe out all life on the planet. Spain alone is about 208000 square miles, multiply that by how much energy produced by even the 50-60 meters asteroids, which can produce around 500 kiloton impacts, and you'll see that an impact from a country size asteroid could easily obliterate an entire continent and devastation of that kind would wipe out even bacteria. So none of those fragments could have been more than a few hundred meters in diameter, which is a very tiny fraction of the size of a moon or small planetoid. Which means Alkanphel destroyed and deflected 99.9999% of the Asteroid. We also know from the Manga that the impacts also triggered volcanic eruption so the impacts alone did not create the ice age, which further shows very little of the Asteroid made it to Earth as otherwise there would have been far more damage.
  4. Nothing I said was contradictory, if you really read what I said it would be plain to see I never said the Creators were made of energy. I said that was an assumption and explained how that assumption was wrong. I just pointed out that the strangely common misconception that they are somehow evolved beyond physical form is not supported by what is shown in the manga. It was pretty much the entire point of everything I have stated in this topic!

    Anime Tech...

    It's interesting when something dreamed up inspires someone else to take the ideal and make something real from it... http://www.treehugger.com/files/2007/09/an...athin_anime.php
  6. That time already? Wow, Happy B'Day Allen.
  7. Actually that part was natural, it's the same thing that makes parallel realities possible. Pretty much every time a major choice is made it causes a branching of realities. Since the rift extended right into hyper space and the multi-verse it created enough improbability to induce a branch event. Remember for example the Dreadnought that went to strange world was heavily damaged but the one that stayed in the GWOTG universe wasn't until he met Anubis and got transformed into Zagam. So that isn't what is killing the Matrix in the GWOTG universe.
  8. No, actually it would since if they evolved beyond the need for a physical body then they wouldn't have one. Beyond the fact you couldn't say they evolved beyond the need for a physical body unless they had already given up the body. (It's the only way "Beyond" would become a valid term) Conservation of energy also applies to evolution and physical bodies, it takes energy to maintain a body and if there is no need for that body then evolution would simply drop it or reduce it to a vestigial of its former self. The nature of the Guyver Unit itself and its need to bond to a host to give it form and function also shows that it would be illogical to assume the Creators did not have physical bodies. They would need physical bodies just to bond to the Units. There is also no example of any Creator technology that doesn't deal with living technology and the manipulation of DNA. So the only logical conclusion left is that they indeed had physical form, we were just never shown them.
  9. Eliminator is also technically a Warrior Unit itself, so is similarly very hard to kill as well.

  11. Since you're completely off the mark I can tell you... No!
  12. It's easy enough to look up, http://hypertextbook.com/facts/1999/PatriciaKong.shtml http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milky_Way And our star completes an orbit around the galactic center of our galaxy once every 230 million years, so during its 4.5 billion years of existence, the Sun has orbited the Milky Way Galaxy only about 19 times.

  14. Not quite, initially Doomsday regenerated upon death but in the rematch with Superman he showed he adapted with him not only regenerating right in battle but he could also extend some of his exo-bones like spears to counter Superman's flight power. He however is not faster than the Flash, it was just surprise that something so big could move so fast. However Doomsday is no longer so unstoppable as he once was, nor a complete monster since acquiring full intelligence. Though I don't know whether he has chosen to be good or evil. Last I heard he was still experimenting which suited him best. And in one alternate time line he even became a hero wearing the Superman symbol to honor his memory.
  15. Yes and no, the scientists that assisted him were Kryptonians and Doomsday was created from Kryptonian DNA.
  16. Hey, I was born on a leap year, so I'm actually younger than you since I only age once every 4 years
  17. Well that was because the containment suit was dampening Doomsday power and as they attacked him they actually freed him from the suit and that freed his power. The adapting at that point was still limited to whatever killed him was what he would adapt to, which is why in the rematch (after both had resurrected) heat vision and such became useless and Superman had to resort to sending Doomsday through a boomtube to get rid of him, but of course Doomsday always managed to survive and return later.
  18. I can safely say the Creators in the WG universe relationship with humanity is most definitely not like that of the Asgards of Stargate SG-1. The Asgards would never experiment with human life. But yes it is better than the relationship with the WG2 Creators, as they never had to face the Guyver Zoalord and thus owed humanity nothing.
  19. No problem, you should really read the Alien vs Predator Comic though, was way better than the film. As for the film, as I said the third film shows this with the Alien that came from the dog host. Here's a nice list of trivia from Alien 3, http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0103644/trivia Which include the fact they had considered making the alien look like a puma, as well as other interesting ideas that never made it into the film. The Comics just made the characteristic inheritance more obvious.
  20. Jason is essentially a hero to the Creators, which isn't surprising considering they owe him their very existence. And there is a reason why the Earth is still off limits to the Creators, though it is a reason known only to a select few of the Creator council, which Krullnar is not privy to. Though Krullnar was unwittingly instrumental in the Creation of Dreadnought by giving Jason the War Relic, though he planned to blow it up right afterward. But he hasn't talked to Jason since so no, Krullnar hasn't spoken with Dreadnought yet.
  21. Actually the alien is suppose to be a hybrid of its host and the alien, at least partially. This was shown in the comics, especially the original Aliens vs Predator comic which showed the aliens used on other worlds and becoming hybrids of the native life forms. Like on a Water planet they became part fish. It was explained that was how they could adapt to virtually any environment and why they needed hosts. So they could readily adapt to a prey species environment. In Alien 3 for example the host was a dog and the resulting alien was clearly different from the ones that had used human hosts, though still clearly alien in appearance it had some more animalistic traits. Also this is why in Aliens 4 there was so much of a cross over between Ripley and the Alien queen that they had a hard time separating their DNA.
  22. The Matrix that is dying in the GWOTG universe is the copied Matrix, unless you are refering to Zagam's red Matrix? But not even the Red Matrix could cause that effect throughout the entire GWOTG universe.
  23. It wasn't like they had a choice, they were surrounded by Grakken and fact is they did leave as soon as they could. They didn't stick around for any pleasantries. Not to mention Earth is still suppose to be off limits to them yet they still find time to run experiments on humans and a few zoaforms. Each of which they plan on killing when they are done. Yeah, that sounds real friendly. On the plus side Jason did save their collective butts when he defeated the Guyver Zoalord, so they consider him in high regard but that doesn't mean they really care about the rest of humanity. Like Enforcer Prime would rather sacrifice himself or even Guyver 4 rather than harm Jason but as you may notice he has no compunction about killing anyone else that threatens Guyver 4, so he clearly has no orders not to harm other Earthlings.
  24. No, the Matrix just has a problem with super intense energy. The W'Kar element is not just dimensional but also an incredible concentration of energy. It's like taking a magnet and getting too close to the sun with it. The magnet is simply not strong enough to deal with it, similarly the Matrix has a problem with the W'Kar element.
  25. Well, Dreadnought teleporting them there might have had something to do with that Let's just say they have an invested interest...
