thanks all for a lovely night, and @miru for the triple(!) feature!
Despite the, er, transformation sequence, I do appreciated Valcuria's version of the armor isn't overly sexualized.
Zoa-toast: The early years
ah, the long arduous journey through the desert of *checks notes* japan?
ok I want a blow-drying shower
Wait, what, it's over?? At least the movies had nothing happen, this was like... anti happening, I feel like my life has been decimated of significant events just by watching... whatever that was. At least past Hexe's intuitive revulsion at the chuds that were into this toxic bullshit at the time turns out to have been entirely justified so... thanks... I guess?? Also *endless vomiting* #Monsterdon #MonsterdonTripleFeature #GuyverOutOfControl1986
Should've been called Guyver's Barely Disguised Fetish
But in general this was interesting! Thanks again @ryan for the bonus feature, and see y'all next week! Let's see if I can safely return to the world of normal media....

So the gross pervy exploitative rapey male gaze violently misogynistic of-it's-time '80's anime version of The Guyver had a more powerful female Guyver withing the first 15 minutes, whereas neither of the movies from the quote unquote Feminist '90s gave any female character even a second in the Guyver unit #Monsterdon #MonsterdonTripleFeature #GuyverOutOfControl1986
@xerozohar metal boobs for everybody!

@strangefour @RachelThornSub Plus, I think I've heard of cases where a movie was shown precisely once in one US theater to fulfill some kind of legal criterion (dunno if it's exactly "theatrical release" or something else)
#Monsterdon #MonsterdonTripleFeature #GuyverOutOfControl1986
@crowbriarhexe it's only proper.
Now THAT'S barely disguised fetish.
BOOB-BEAMS!
Can't imagine how '80's anime got a reputation for being exploitative and violently misogynistic and only watched by gross incel otaku loser nerds ๐๐๐ #Monsterdon #MonsterdonTripleFeature #GuyverOutOfControl1986

welp. that was fun. Neat to see what got adapted and what didn't (and how well it translated formats or didn't)

@diazona No not really. lawl
@xerozohar was anything about that really disguised though ๐

ooooh, bio lasers
I wonder if the Guyver suit has air conditioning
#Monsterdon #MonsterdonTripleFeature #GuyverOutOfControl1986
not on the first date, buster.
@xerozohar honestly me too

Man's got a disarming personality
Okay I have to take the trash out and eat something but I'll leave this on and maybe snark a bit
But if not just know that I'll always keep The Guyver in my heart. So I can blast people with my chest.
oh there is another?
I might be watching as long as I can stay awake
That was Guyver 2: Foam Suit Boogaloo!
Thanks to @ryan for bringing my blue dress to the dig site!
GUYVER! ๐๐ฅ๐ก
*train crossing noises* *protagonist on train* *DAT tape rewind noises* Seraphiel's Atack... uh, I mean, get in the Guyver, Mitzuki #Monsterdon #MonsterdonTripleFeature #GuyverOutOfControl1986
I feel bad for Mizuki, losing her boyfriend and getting very little explanation or context.
#Monsterdon #MonsterdonTripleFeature #GuyverOutOfControl1986
I can't help but think this would be way more interesting if Mizuki got her own Guyver suit
#Monsterdon #MonsterdonTripleFeature #GuyverOutOfControl1986
That evil laugh gets a C-
#Monsterdon #MonsterdonTripleFeature #GuyverOutOfControl1986
Oh, of course, the more powerful woman in the same Guyver unit must die for her sin of being better than our "hero" #Monsterdon #MonsterdonTripleFeature #GuyverOutOfControl1986
Monologue time (again)

You see, when a bio-boosted Guyver meets a bio-boosted Guyvette, and they sleaze each other very much... #Monsterdon #MonsterdonTripleFeature #GuyverOutOfControl1986
I remember back when this all started, I was wondering if we were going to see the trope of a protective suit that you put on and can't get off
Some great sci-fi TV has come from that trope

#Monsterdon #MonsterdonTripleFeature #GuyverOutOfControl1986
I mean I have no problem with tentacle hentai that's being honest with itself about what it is, but I distinctly remember The Guyver being a mainstream phenomenon that you weren't *allowed* to dislike if you were "into" anime or manga, and it's a big part of why I ick'd out of both of them for a long, long time. Along with Akira. #Monsterdon #MonsterdonTripleFeature #GuyverOutOfControl1986
It would be an interesting property for a super suit, if you could put it on over your clothes or without clothes but it's more comfortable the latter way
#Monsterdon #MonsterdonTripleFeature #GuyverOutOfControl1986
Still confused about why Valcuria's clothes were removed when putting on the Guyver suit but Sho's weren't
I mean, in-universe it makes no sense. Out-of-universe it's really not a mystery.
#Monsterdon #MonsterdonTripleFeature #GuyverOutOfControl1986
Finally, Girlver. But. Gross #Monsterdon #MonsterdonTripleFeature #GuyverOutOfControl1986
"Your beloved Mitzuki" "I mean we're in a couple of the same classes, I could take or leave her to be honest" #Monsterdon #MonsterdonTripleFeature #GuyverOutOfControl1986
In the first two movies the Guyvers seemed woefully inadequate to destroy a government
#Monsterdon #MonsterdonTripleFeature #GuyverOutOfControl1986
"like giving a high-tech jet plane to a baby cockroach"
what an image
#Monsterdon #MonsterdonTripleFeature #GuyverOutOfControl1986
Rei... I mean Mizuki... is absent from school today #Monsterdon #MonsterdonTripleFeature #GuyverOutOfControl1986
I think Guyver-Sho has grown since he put the suit on
or since it put itself on him
whatever

There will always be something weird to me about Japanese characters with those giant anime eyes
#Monsterdon #MonsterdonTripleFeature #GuyverOutOfControl1986
@crowbriarhexe At least it's fully Japanese
@strangefour I'd agree with that
#Monsterdon #MonsterdonTripleFeature #GuyverOutOfControl1986
Already the production values are light years ahead of anything else we've seen tonight #Monsterdon #MonsterdonTripleFeature #GuyverOutOfControl1986
The Zoanoids are scarier in animation
or maybe it's just that seeing one busting out spontaneous raps ruined the effect of the live-action Zoanoid suit for me
