I hope to god 4Kids don't get thier hands on this :lol:

Still, this is great news, The Guyver was a huge success in the states and Europe, even if it's first series lasted only tweleve episodes, what was even more sad was that the Manga was cancelled rather callously by Japan, let's hope this time the most underated manga character ever gets his due...

Did David Hayter ( Solid Snake, MGS ) play the voice for Guyver in the second movie (not the one with Mark Hammil), or was he in an anime adaptation? I thought it was the feature film, but after reading some stuff online I've gotten confused.

Hayter starred in the second movie "Dark Hero" as The Guyver's human identity, and voiced him when he transformed

Brodie 04-07-2005 07:13 PM

I'm probably overly excited about this....

Anarchistguy 04-08-2005 09:50 PM

DrSpengler 04-08-2005 11:54 PM

Good news.

I've always liked the Guyver, in all it's incarnations. Even the first live action movie with a rapping mutant played by Jimmy Walker. So yeah, I'm looking forward to this.

Brodie 04-09-2005 01:33 PM

Those designs are exactly the same as the original, so im hoping its still awesome.

Thank you much, I was too lazy to look it up. I'm a fan of Hayter, and didn't even realize that he played the human form! I learned something new.

Anarchistguy 06-06-2005 01:05 PM

Sorry to bring back such an old thread, but I wanted to show you guys some character designs:

Sho Fukamachi/Guyver 1

Tetsuro Segawa

Mizuki Segawa

Agito Makishima/Guyver 3

ZariusTwo 06-06-2005 01:50 PM

I really like Agito's and Shos' designs, Testuro looks remarkibly slim, Mizuki looks drasticlly different from the manga version, then again, this is'nt the first time they have screwed up her appereance (First Guyver OVA really f*cked her up)

Anarchistguy 06-06-2005 01:57 PM

First OVA? You mean Out Of Control?

DrSpengler 06-06-2005 08:36 PM

I like Tetsuro's new design. He's a good 75% less ugly.

Anarchistguy 06-10-2005 04:12 PM

DrSpengler 06-10-2005 07:22 PM

Yikes, that's an ugly asian woman.

Can't wait for it to come over here, though. I guess this new series finally explains why all this Guyver stuff has been coming out on DVD lately.

Anarchistguy 06-10-2005 07:31 PM

What do you think of the screens, DrSpengler?

DrSpengler 06-10-2005 07:45 PM

I think, judging from those screencaps, the animation looks pretty good. Also, just looking at Gregole, the Zoanoids look to be exactly like their 80's counter-parts. Which is awesome.

I hope ADV or Ocean Group dubs this one, as they generally do great english dubbing.

Anarchistguy 06-10-2005 07:55 PM

ADV co-produced this from the start so, I'd bet on that. :)

Spitfire 06-12-2005 12:07 AM

Wow just looks like they tookt he old show and made it look better. Oh well works for me

The entire series is going to adapt the manga again, this time going beyond episode twelve.

Spitfire 06-12-2005 10:02 AM

That's awesome! I always liked this series but it was hard to get into for me. Since I saw the horrible live action movie first -_-

Anarchistguy 07-01-2005 05:04 PM

Trailer

Enjoy :)

DrSpengler 07-01-2005 08:05 PM

The animation looks killer. :)

Can't wait until we get it over here.

On a side note, why are Japanese trailers always so...boring? The narration is always so bland, the editting is really underwhelming (never intense) and they're always filled with boring descriptions. Just something I've noticed. American trailers usually try to get the audience's adrenalin pumping in order to create hype and excitement for the property. Japanese trailers just give you the bare bones facts and a few randomly cobbled together clips. :ohwell:

And now for something completely different:

I have never seen "The Guyver", but I thought I ought to just let you all know: everytime I glance over this thread, I feel a rush of exhilaration, just for a moment, because I mistakenly read it as "MacGyver" every time.

Oh, if only.

I can't wait for the new guyver I loved the old one, but I wish they had gone beyond episode 12, hopefully the new one will fare better.

God, I can barly read your dated use of text speech...

...But no, there was not going to be a "second season", because the first series was an OVA split into two parts consisting of six episodes

Deathknight 08-11-2005 02:08 PM

Anyone know if any group is going to fansub it?

BartAllen 01-10-2006 06:44 AM

The New guyver cartoon.
 
I know there was an older thread about this, but i wasnt sure if i would be necro posting or not so anyways. Ive seen the first 18 episodes of this new series, and its AMAZING! sadly only the first 5 episodes were subbed, so i didnt understand the rest, but the animation is really great.

If anyone here is a guyver fan, you should definitely try to find the episodes.

thanks to whomever combined the threads. i didnt want to step on any toes. by posting in this thread. so thanks for combining it.

Drtooth 01-10-2006 03:04 PM

I feel like an idiot! I misread it and thought it was a MacGuyver cartoon. Hope that crap doesn't come back.

:lol: I did too!

So what is this anime about? Judging from the pictures, it looks kinda like another "ripoff" of Neon Genesis Evangelion (which I *THINK* was first of its kind, and spawned many many imitations... correct me if I'm wrong.), what with the heroes piloting various gigantic mechas and fighting monsters.

So.. I guess that's the "action" aspect.. but what is the story?
