Movie Reviews of Guyver, Vol. 7: Armor of the Gods
Movie Review: Finally! A faithful translation from the manga.
Summary: 5 Stars
Being a fan of the manga, I couldn't have asked for a better production of the Guyver than this. The 1st series was not faithful to the manga; it was fun, had it's moments but (in my opinion) a mistake. There is so much depth in the manga and to finally see it expressed in this series is just awesome. To people who are not familiar with the manga, it has a rather disappointing ending, and I understand that. To put things in perspective, there are currently 25 volumes (available at Sasuga Books) and this season is at the equivalent of volume 10! I'm optimistic that we'll see a 2nd season, if not I'm still ecstatic that this was made. Read the manga! :-)Movie Review: Movie itself was good, but had a few areas to improve on...
Summary: 3 Stars
I loved this episode, for the fact that I got to finally see the Gigantic! But the reason I rated it only 3 stars was the fact that by the time the Gigantic hatched the fight with Neo-Zektole was over within 3 minutes! I was expecting more, not a whole lot, but just a little more. Another reason I only gave it 3 stars was that the writers have no intention as of last I checked around November 2007, to continue the series. That's twice they've done this. They did it with the previous series that they had started over 10 years ago. But that's my review on this movie. Its still worth seeing, especially for us fans who have been around since the beginning of this whole Guyver idea who have been dying just to see the Gigantic move a finger!!Movie Review: Leaves something to be desire.
Summary: 1 Stars
Do not get me wrong. I am a huge fan of Guyver. Guyver is my favorite anime of all time, but after watching the final episode, it leaves you with this bitter taste of "that's it?". I still like the original series better. Even though, this new series has a deeper storyline and better animation, that's about it, the original one have more action and better fight sequence and music. This is what bothers me for this new Guyver series, if you are planning on ressurecting a series, why would you make the same mistake with its trite ending? There is no closure with this series. They ruined it. This was a waste attempt of bringing back the Guyver. Hopely, they will come up with some ways of expanding this like with the original 12 episodes where the first 6 episodes was categorized with an opening as GUYVER 1 and the last 6 episodes had a different opening as GUYVER 2. Movie Review: ......

I dont see why you all don't like it. I mean ya it ends kinda in a cliffhanger but atlest we got more ten the old 12 part series so be thankful and lets hope for a season 2 so we can continue the story cuz this only coverd the manga to vol 10 if i remember right. I give this 5 stars just cause you didnt like the ending and wasnt so amazing as some of you may think doznt mean it should be a low rating.
But I think this dvd is great i have seen all the episdes last year so this is all nothing new but it still is a great series i really recomend buying this dvd to all guyver fans
Movie Review: About that ending...
Summary: 5 Stars
Everyone is entitled to his/her opinion, but I disagree with the other reviews I've read. I rated this five stars because I don't believe this is the end of the series. I believe that it is a perfect setup for future seasons. If this is actually the absolute end of the show, I agree that it is very bad, but if this is just the end of season one, it's great. It shows the current reign of chronos, the fate of the guyvers and aptom, and it introduces the newly enhanced guyver 1. It sets up the characters and the conflict to be resolved in season 2.
As far as the action is concerned, I thought it was adequate to tell the story. It wasn't amazing, but it was still entertaining.
Overall, this was a great series, and this DVD had a good season finale (that is, of course, if they make another season). I highly recomend it.
