Based off the original Guyver series(12 eps), this just seems like a 'modernized' version of that older series. So far, it has held close to how events played out in the first series and shows some signs of making some characters seem cooler/more sinister than they were originally. Have any of you caught this series? How does it seem so far? |

In some ways it's far more faithful to the original manga, but it also makes some interesting changes in the story as well. So far I think it's absolutely fantastic, and I can't wait for ADV to hurry and start releasing it over here. |

I could've sworn we had a topic for this a couple months ago... anyway, yeah, I grabbed the first 2 episodes, and then forgot to keep checking for any subsequent releases. What's it up to now? |

I wonder if it will reach the "Gigantic" arc. |

Well, since the Hyper Guyver shows up in the first episode, I'd say it's pretty likely. |

*revives topic* Has anybody found the edits to classic Guyver OVA atrocious? Changed OP, bad video editing, and... the voices >_< Screw those who try to replace Kusao's voice! (If anything, all of Kusao Takeshi's roles that are dubbed in English suck amazing amounts). |

Fixed. XD Don't remember it was a long time ago. I have both old and new Guyver sitting somewhere waiting to be watched. >< |

XD Well, I wouldn't condemn every role. Some stuff were okay/decent, depending. |

I remember the dub fondly despite it's awfulness, because it was the first time I ever got to hear David Lucas...not to mention I snickered hearing the English voice of Agumon coming out of Sho's mouth. |

It's probably a much wiser and profitable investment to do what FUNimation, Manga Entertainment, and Media Blasters have done - invest in original new titles like Afro Samurai, The Five Killers, and Strait Jacket, or invest in a new installment of a franchise with larger market appeal that Guyver, such as Kite Liberator. I think he's full of shit and he doesn't know it. |

Somehow I think a second season of Guyver would do a bit better than the first one, simply because it would FINALLY be covering territory that hasn't been animated. And while the American market IS in a bad way right now, Guyver TV sold pretty damn well, which means a second season would be a much better investment than say, things like anime club sponsorships and magazines. |
