TV Go was an adaption of a manga series that rebooted the franchise and was made for the lower end of the shounen demographic. The problem here is you confused it with things inspired by or based off Ishikawa's Getter manga.

All the Toei series are their own thing, meant to appeal to kids while Ishikawa does his own thing appealing to teens.
>>
>>13637071
Wow, this clears up quite a bit.

Anyways, I always wanted to see BOOMERANG SAUCER show up in SRW.
>>
>>13637071
I just mean from a quality standpoint. The Getter doesn't move at lightning speed when it transforms; and even though stock footage transformations were in other series, Go's are kinda shitty. I mean sure, Getter Robo/G gattais weren't great, but they were fast and to the point.
>>
>>13637071

TV Go was not an adaptation, it was the original work.
>>
wait, where are you even watching it? Are there subs?

Getter Go was developed as a 70s homage. It was originally envisioned as a Mazinger series but was changed into a Getter series because, merchandise.

>>13637071
>>13638091
The TV series and manga were developed and ran concurrently like most Dynamic Pro projects. Difference is that the manga continued serialization long after the TV show ended.

Don't really want to argue this much because this will summon some faggots trying to argue that one is an adaptation of the other solely based on a few weeks' difference in their debut dates.

There's hush-hush, never-confirmed speculation by Japanese fans that BIG WEST, one of the parties involved in production is preventing the licensing of Getter Go and that's why it never appeared in SRW. Rumor is that DynaPro made Neo Getter to circumvent this supposed legal struggle.

It's more likely that the TV-show's not very popular and also that the manga version doesn't exactly have audio assets.
>>
>>13637071
So there's just two different manga called Getter Robo Go?

I like Getter, but damn if all the adaptations and continuities and publications aren't confusing. Then again it's been a long time since I've seen the OVAs or read any manga for Getter.

While Toei Getter/G were based on Ishikawa's preliminary manga drafts/ideas, Getter Robo Go anime and manga actually developed concurrently after a toy company developed a fully transforming Getter prototype toy.
>>
Since we're on the topic of how exactly were various Ishikawa adaptations made: does anyone have a clue exactly what is going on in the 5000光年の虎 drama? Does it adapt the manga or do its own thing? Google translating the story synopsis doesn't really yield any information and my Japanese's not near good enough to make heads and tails of it.

Now you just wait one second there. I can see a lot of complaints about this one being valid (though I haven't watched it to confirm anything since nosubs), but that OST is pretty damn good, if a bit... samey.

No subs. DVD Raws though, which are all up on Youtube and on nyaa.

Though if you know of any other unsubbed/basically unwatched super robot series with some nice OSTs please direct me to them. I want shit that's appropriate but not something every player is gonna instantly recognize.

The original Getter Robo had a decent OST, actually, and I doubt many of the people who will be in your campaign will have actually watched that. Only issue is, the only OST for that I can find is a single Youtube video with all the things put together.

It's not like popularity has ever meant a ton for stuff to appear in SRW. As long as someone at Banpresto likes a show and they can get the license for it cheap it can probably show up. Pretty sure Mechander Robo was in Compact 3 explicitly because Terada liked it. And then they proceeded to make the Omega Missiles the most annoying mechanic in the entire series.

Getter Robo Go TV has a real fanbase in Japan, you'd be surprised. There's really nothing wrong with it for what it tries to be and it has some cool action sequences. Honestly, if you love the design of Getter Robo Go and want to see it in action, the TV series is a great thing to check out.

Obviously it's not the same thing as the manga, but it's still likable. The TV series used Ishikawa's designs for the supporting cast, villain cast and mecha.

The project was first known as Getter Apache and then Getter Robo J. The main mecha's design was based on the toy's prototype form.

The part that's confusing is the three main characters. They were designed by Go Nagai. He also made some initial mecha designs (Mazinger and Getter styled) along with the main cast. Go is Kouji. Sho is Honey. Gai is that Honda from Yugioh.

Ishikawa did villain designs, mechanical designs and his own Getter designs which looked more in line with the Go we know. I don't know which one did the first designs, but when the project was Getter J the main form that would become Go looked completely different while the proto-Sho form was pretty much the same and proto-Gai was similar.
>>
>>13643367
I don't know if I should trust Getter Bible. They write that the production team thought "Getter Robo Justi" would sound lame in shouts. So at the very last minute, they changed it to 'Go', as a reference to 'Go' Nagai.
>>
>>13643545
Why wouldn't you trust the official data bible of the series? Also what page is that on?
>>
>>13643545
Justi definitely isn't even half as good to shout as something like Go though, that is a fact, especially when you take into account nip pronunciation.
>>
>>13643545
>>13643561
Getter Robo Go just sounds so good for a robot anime. How can something like Getter Robo Justi even compare?

GETTA GOOO
vs
GETTA JYASUCHIIII

Not really much of a choice.

Honestly, I didn't like the Go Anime designs when I first saw them, but after a bit I came around to them. Especially 3.

>>13643556
>Also what page is that on?
Im lazy to dig through the photos but it's a few pages after >>13643367

There's a photo of the Getter Justi script cover with someone canceling that title out, writing the 'Go' kanji beside it.

I think you might have the pronunciation for Justi wrong, but your are correct regardless.

Not that any of that matters, since Getter in general is no longer very much of a mainstay. At this rate, they'll just resort to the Linebarrels author/artist duo's take on Getter as the go-to license.

Other than SRW, there's also toys and everyone was wondering where the Getter Go toys were, aside from the tie-in merchandise by Yukata. While Neo Getter received a Chogokin by Aoshima, there doesn't seem to be any collectible version of Getter Go, neither tv or anime ver. That is until Revoltech somehow got their hands on both the license to Neo Getter and the manga version of Go.

It also didn't help when the video game, Getter Robo Daikessen! used a rather odd version of Getter Go featuring the TV version of the robot but the manga version of the pilots. That combination just fueled the rumors even more.

Merchandising isn't kind to any of the Getters from the 90s onward except Shin Getter 1 and only 1. IIRC the Revoltechs of New Getter are also the only figures that Getter has.

Then I can easily see Getter disappearing from SRW entirely. Unless they just use Armageddon forever, anyways.
>>
>>13637028
Slightly off topic, this is how I felt about CCA, that movie looks like utter garabge. then I watched Patlabor which had came out a year later, the animation was almost flawless. CCA itself was ok at best too, I don't know what was going on maybe budget issues? The way they made Nu Gundam in the SRW games though looked nice animation wise.
>>
>>13645431
I can see them just going back to Toei again. I still think that Shin Getter is a bit too edgy for the Toei characters though. They don't mix well and I hope it doesn't happen again, especially if they actually use Shin Mazinger ZERO at some point.
>>
>>13645431
They'll just stick to using Armageddon and Toei. It's worked fine up until now, so they have absolutely no reason to change it.
>>13645460
Shin Getter is not too edgy for the Toei characters. It would have to be edgy in the first place for that to even possibly be a problem.
>>
>>13645474
>>13645460
Yes, except they're currently not using Toei, for some reason (besides Kamiya being retired, though they can just recycle his voice samples for Ryoma). It hasn't showed up since Z1.

Actually, in Daikessen you get a choice to upgrade Go into the final ver (from the manga) or the super version (from the TV series). Go in Daikessen has a mix of TV/manga based attacks.

>>13645402
They also said they were going to make a Stilva, but never did probably for financial reasons.

Aaaaand now I'm sad.
Thanks anon, I really needed to know that.
>>
>>13645638

Go was probably weaker than the Getter 1 due to no Getter energy, no wonder they discarded it like that.
Also Getters themselves don't have a history of good maintenance, the Getter 1 gets burnt along with Musashi in the anime for a funeral pyre and Getter Dragon simply becomes the cocoon for the Saint Dragon or Getter Emperor I forgot.

>>
>>13645678

I don't think so. Because in Getter Arc, Musashi says that Getter Emperor's memories of Earth ended when it went to Mars. So in all likelihood, they are separate entities.

Armageddon doesn't really have that much usage considering that 4 out of the 6 games its been in are directly related. And it took 8 years for it to return between D and Z2.

Yeah, so? In Episode 11, the individual Cyber Beast mechs were just getting the ability to learn how to transform into humans, they had five more episodes until they even combined into Dancouga. And Dancouga was a much shorter show than Getter Go, by like 11 episodes.

>It was originally envisioned as a Mazinger series

Curious.Got a source on this?
