I like the idea of Imakuram being a Master level Zoalord now, it only makes sense for Archanfel's right hand man to be of the highest order of Zoalord, second only to himself so that he can better serve him & put the hurt on his enemies, or lead Chronos in his absence. I thought Apollyon was likely Imakuram acting on Archanfel's orders too myself, hiding his identity and swiping the zoacrystals of the fallen zoalords to power up his master (he only killed Edward cuz he got in the way and he couldn't afford to expose his master's secret). Though I can't help but wonder if Archanfel could be Apollyon, since he had the energy to stay up and revive Imakuram, perhaps that suit of armor serves to rejuvenate his strength somehow. My only basis for this theory though is that Edward called Apollyon "My Lord" at the last second before he lost his zoacrystal, like he'd realized finally who he was up against and how doomed he was, and I'd assume Archanfel would possess all the powers of his Zoalords combined since most of them appear to be possess only a few basic abilities in common along with a specialized skillset unique to them alone. Regardless, I like your plans for Imakuram in story, I've been wanting to see more of him in action for a while (especially against his old foe Agito! Rematch long overdue )

Who can forget Murakami's kickass anti-zoanoid pistol? containing three dum dum rounds that can penetrate the flesh of normal zoanoids with ease, and even deter lower level Hyper Zoanoids. Its supposedly a Max Factory custom, which begs the question...Who is Max Factory and do they still exist as a weapons manufacturer even after the events of X-Day? Are they an underground weapon manufacturing group? I can't help but be curious about the people who made his weapon and if they knew what Murakami was involved in or were in the dark, just another custom job, no questions asked as long as payment was made. In real life Max Factory is a toy and figurine making company, though I gotta wonder about their identity in the Guyververse. Max Pharmaceuticals was the cover for the Japan Branch of Chronos, so maybe there's a connection between the two? Also, could Murakami's old trademark weapon be modified for use by human hands? The recoil from his gun was so powerful he had to transform his hand and arm to be able to use it, and the weight of it alone made it difficult for a normal human like Tetsuro to lift it....I suspect a normal person's wrist would have been shattered if they tried to fire it. There's also the matter of those laser rifles Chronos troopers have been seen carrying, I can't recall if we've ever seen those weapons in action at all. We can assume they're more advanced & have more penetrating power than conventional firearms, enough to kill maybe a low level zoanoid, though I guess their primary purpose was to provide Chronos agents with a means by which to defend themselves or kill a target without having to transform & give away their cover prior to the events of X-Day.

So its the host's stamina that's the real deciding factor, if they push themselves too far they can end up falling unconscious upon deactivating the armor, leaving themselves sitting ducks for any surviving zoanoids lingering about. We know the Guyver armor itself can be taxed however against exceedingly powerful opponents, like Neo Zektole or a Zoalord, though I don't think we've ever seen a Guyver become completely exhausted (we've seen them drained due to injury or use of their stronger weapons like the Mega Smasher though).

You have a point there about her unit being an experimental prototype, though thus far she seems to operate as well as a normal guyver except for the inability to reconstitute her garments, & she seemed to either suffer a power surge or something during her fight against the Enzyme IIIs & that hyper zoanoid...though considering she cut her way through the P.O.H. zoanoid defense forces like they were nothing I'd still say she's a force to be reckoned with, I was just pressed for a situation in which a guyver had already used much of its power and reverted to normal. If she had been attacked again before making her getaway, would she have been able to bioboost again & use any degree of her power? At any rate, we have a better idea of a conventional guyver's stamina, such as their ability to fire the Mega Smasher at full power only once due to the energy it uses up (though the guyver can continue to fight and use its lesser weaons afterwards). So if Sho or Agito had been through the same battle she'd just been through, cutting through zoanoids and mega smashing their way out, then returned to normal, would they be able to bioboost again if they were unlucky enough to be happened upon by more zoanoids? And if so, how much power would they have left to burn? Would they able to fight at full power again or would some of their weapons be unavailable to them?

Can a Guyver bio-boost twice in a row? Like, for example, if Guyver II F had run into zoanoids again shortly after making her big flashy escape from Pillars of Heaven HQ, would she have had the energy left to transform again? And if she WAS able to bio-boost again, would all her weapons systems have been available to her or would she'd be in a weakened state? I've been following Guyver for a long time but I can't recall if Valcuria or Sho or any of the other guyvers have ever been in a situation in which they were forced to bio-boost again after having already canceled the transformation.

WHOA! did Japan Legend add a new chpt? Yikes, I'm WAY behind , gotta check this out But yeah, I agree either way she's got more fights ahead of her regardless of what her mission might be (personally i think naming her Guyver 4 would have been ALOT more simple, but naming herself Guyver II F may make more sense if she had a connection to Lisker, if not, still works lol)

Yo, hi Phoenix, not so much progress I'm afraid, real life's been keeping me pretty busy so I haven't had alot of time to frequent the forum Hope you're having better luck than me

Guyver II F AKA Inspector Valcuria has been kicking ass and taking names alot lately in recent Guyver issues, having stolen Chronos' first man made guyver unit for some unknown purpose. What I'd like to ask you guys is...In your opinion, who do you think she is and what is her endgame? i.e. why she steal the Guyver & for what purpose? Its gotta be more than mere lust for power in my opinion since despite her great skill her unit is still weaker than the upgraded Guyvers I & III with their Gigantic/Exceed power ups, and since Chronos is now capable of creating zoanoids stronger than a standard guyver her future would have been more secure if she'd stayed loyal to Chronos. My best theory thus far is... 1) She's connected to Oswald Lisker somehow, perhaps his sister (same blonde hair & blue eyes), or maybe a lover, basically she's out for revenge on Sho Fukamachi & company for what happened to Guyver II (pretty desperate yet determined if thats the case given how strong Sho is these days, then again Sho's been fighting against Chronos all this time in spite of the odds being against him so it would be understandable). She's an ex-inspector of Chronos so I can't see her doing what she's been doing out of a desire to save the world or something, plus she may have joined forced with Guyot recently, someone who seems to think he knows what her goal is. Its hard to ascertain if she's evil since we've only seen her killing Chronos lackeys so far without risking civilian lives like Agito tends to do, though as someone who served Chronos & based on her demeanor she doesn't come off as being a heroine thus far now does she?

Speaking of which, book 28 is out on amazon.co.jp, go buy it! Unfortunately I can't read Japanese, so unless its translated I wouldn't be able to follow the storyline

Where did you read the latest chpt?

I don't have much experience in running a board or enforcing rules and what not. Its something I'd be interested in learning more about just to see if I could do it though.

Ditto

The characters all possess incredible powers and abilities, BUT, they all have limits and weaknesses as well. The Guyver Zoalord was the most powerful living creature in existence, and yet he was still defeated by the combined efforts of an army of guyvers and Zoalords, and thanks to his lack of knowledge concerning the advanced combat systems of the Warrior Guyver. W'kar is vulnerable to extreme heat and cold, Dreadnought's control while highly advanced can still be destroyed if an enemy can get at it. Basically, I don't consider Guyver to be anything like DBZ cuz there are many powerful beings fighting for control/defense of the earth, whereas in most DBZ sagas Goku ends up having to save the day after all the other heroes get creamed XD. Don't get me wrong, I like DBZ, but I'm also aware of its flaws and I don't think Warrior Guyver suffers from any of those weaknesses. Chronos and the anti-Chronos forces ALL possess their power house characters and lower ranking characters and certain conditions have been put in place that prevents just anyone from suddenly becoming all powerful, BUT, the danger remains inorder to keep things from getting dull. I'm glad Chronos acquired some new Guyvers recently so as to balance things out since the anti-Chronos forces each have at least ONE Dreadnought level powered character, or something akin or close to it. Plus, the new and improved Lord Alkanphel has yet to be revealed... I think WG does a good job of making sure things don't get to the point at which only one character can ever get anything done or the good guys win too easily or the bad guys lose too easily etc, we see Chronos win some and lose some, and we see Jason and company win some and lose some.

Sorry, i know she was a very loyal chronos agent from the start and her zoalord boyfriend's survival or death wouldn't change that, I just meant that if he doesn't die this time around Natasha will be different from the lonely, bitter figure we know from before right?

Assuming Bio Titans don't possess some manner of defense against Aptom like Neo-Zektole & Zoalords do, I imagine Omega Aptom would become even more powerful if he absorbed a Bio-Titan and gained its ability to conduct fusion & draw power from others of the same type. Anywho, since Aptom won't be absorbing that Proto-Zoalord like before, will Natasha's hate for him be written out or will Aptom simply kill her lover rather than absorb him? Thus maintaining Natasha's hate for Aptom and her motivation for serving Chronos so fanatically?

I like the idea of Alkanphel revealing that he'd been pulling his punches and taking it easy on Jason and company all this time until Jason made his trip back in time and completed the time paradox, thus rendering Reeve no longer a threat to the current continuity. It should make for good drama when the ACTF forces find themselves up against a Chronos decidedly more powerful and determined to kill them than they're used to

True, but I'm guessing Zoalords, especially the higher ranking ones, still outpower normal warrior guyvers and warp their attacks around them and back at the WG in question, unlimited stamina isn't enough when your enemy has more raw power and can counter your best attacks. All a Zoalord has to do is kill the WG before their stamina runs out, no idea how they'd capture the control medal though since even if they froze it I'm GUESSING it would still retreat to hyperspace right? Still, they can destroy the medal itself and not give the WG a chance to retreat.

I think Aptom was commenting on the fact that the Libertus possess complex abilities more commonplace amongst Lost Numbers than Hyper Zoanoids, OR, that they are similar to him in that they can transform and adapt to changing battle situations like he can, i.e. they can switch from brawler mode to a bio blaster mode etc. Heck, it could even be a combination of the two since Agito got the data to create his zoanoids from Biofreezer and of course Dr. Hekkering designed the Libertus to be resistant to Chronos control, thanks in part to Griselda's influence too. So far Aptom seems impressed by their abilities, but not intimidated. I think Aptom will be able to dominate the Libertus next page, to the point where they'll be forced to self-destruct in order to fulfill their purpose of preventing Aptom from helping Sho or rescuing the others. Either that, or Aptom will take them out and proceed to challenge Griselda and her remaining Libertus troops back at the mansion.

So she's not a female warrior guyver gigantic...hhhhmmmm, the blades threw me off I guess, as did the cyclone power matrix like bits. This will be harder to figure out than I thought "ponders this fun mystery"

An oldie but a goodie, fantastic female warrior guyver gigantic

I admit I had wondered the same thing myself at great length, like how many failures did the Uranus go through to create the desired humanoid master zoalord body type? Bulton's form is the most grotesque because he was the first attempt to create a commander class Zoanoid & refine it into something more...regal . Though of course, we know from the manga that not all Zoalords are necessarily very human in shape, like Waferdanos or Kahn's dragonlord form. However, as for the official canon WG universe....Its possible the Uranus only needed one prototype to learn from their mistakes and create the ideal Master Zoalord (cuz they're oh so perfect, those gene splicing space bastards ), or, they could of course have created other prototypes that may or may not still exist in stasis somewhere or have gone into hiding. We may never know, but, even if no more Master Zoalord Protypes ever appear in the official WG universe, the concept itself does give one awesome ideas for fanfiction does it not? Some mysteries are best left unsolved, dun dun dun!

Ah, so they're the strong silent types now eh? Makes sense though, if they hate all born of creator hands or is non-grakken in origin it makes sense they wouldn't speak to them.

Good things come to those who wait

Classic fatal flaw of many a villain and/or prideful warrior race, they get so caught up in bragging about how epically awesome they are and end up giving their opponent an opening to attack

Yeah, it should take them a while to spread the new units across the ranks and adapt their destroyer tech to it, should keep them busy for a while, and once they're done they'll probably renew their war with the Gen rather than target earth again. W'kar's plan will probably work out as he thought, Gen & Grakken locked in an intergalactic stalemate, too busy pounding eachother to pay much attention to earth. Awesome, I look forward to this new datafile of yours McAvoy A Battlguyver Grakken would be pretty damn dangerous to say the least, but a Battle Guyver isn't all that impressive compared to some of the Test Units Draven and Krullnar have created thus far right? So would it really give them a serious leg up over the gen and their warriors? I mean, even Commander Kavzars and Enforcer Kavzars have hyper space links. A Battle Guyver Grakken would be much more dangerous than a standard or Black Guyver Grakken but would it be enough to make them a truly serious menace to the Gen? The Black Guyver Grakken are predicted to be powerful enough to cause trouble with the Gen & keep them occupied for a long while but it wasn't indicated that they'd be powerful enough to just steamroll the Gen....I would think it would take a Nova or Warrior Guyver grakken army to seriously give the Gen cause for alarm.
