Bug-Eyed Earl

Ooohhhh- you're thinking that far ahead. You know, there's a genre of Fics called "Peggy Sue" fics. In reference to the movie "Peggy Sue Got Married," where characters get to re-do the canon they came from. I have an idea for such a fic, where a character goes back mentally in time to inhabit their younger selves. Mine would be Tetsuro going back and taking the units from Malmot and bonding with one, and holding on to the other two. I like the idea of Cronos not being able to find a single trace of the Units, and trying to imagine how they would proceed. I have one funny scene imagined where Tetsuro suddenly whirls around at school when he knows Agito is behind him, paranoid that despite how careful he was Agito is still onto him; Agito simply gives him a simple "WTF?!" look. The twist would be that Archanfel is the one who sent Tetsuro back after the Advents have returned to Earth and decimated it; he sent him because there was simply no one else available to go. It was the deaths of many of the Zoalords and the Rogue Three that splintered the Council, leaving them unprepared for the attack, so Tetsuro has to walk a fine line because he knows as long as the threat of the Advents is still out there, the Twelve are needed. So why do I bring this up in this thread? Easy. He has two spare Units... That and I like the idea of a Guyver barely using his powers to fight Cronos, using deception and his foreknowledge instead.

What do you mean by that? I thought continual usage of a PZ's power would eventually kill him; halting the negative effects is essentially the same as curing him. I no longer have my Viz book where Dr. Hayami explains to Murakami how grave his condition is (the conversation Mizuky overheard). Maybe if he was foolish enough to use only his PZ powers without bio-boosting, the Unit wouldn't be able to protect him. If he was able to use less of his power as his condition worsened, I see what you mean, and a Guyver wouldn't be able to get him 100x up to his previous levels- it would only enhance his abilities to 100x their current state. I just can't remember if he was less powerful the closer he got to death.

The real question is- would the Guyver extend and possibly halt the deterioration of the proto-Zoalord's health? Another way of looking at it is if you had cancer, would bonding with a Guyver heal the disease, or would it make the Unit reject you as a host?

Knowing the events in the manga after vol 8, I got the impression that the reasoning for Archanfel's increased periods of dormancy was that the Zoacrystals were harvested from his body, and that it weakened him every time a new one was extracted. But I was finally able to read up to 27, and I found no mention of this. Was this just a fan theory, a mistranslation, or what? Thanks.
