Description:
The animated brainchild of comic artist Yoshiki Takaya! Encouraged by his editor to make his initial combat-suit design more grotesque,​ Takaya struck upon the idea of an alien,​ biological device,​ a living armor that bonded itself organically to its host.​ The animated version of The Guyver was released as two separate series' of OVAs in Japan,​ and Takaya was involved with both.​ Not only has The Guyver made the jump from manga to OVA,​ but two live-action films have featured the bio-booster as well.​

The Guyver is the ultimate weapon - a mysterious mecha of alien design,​ which when activated,​ interfaces with human subjects and transforms them into powerful combatants.​ This weapon is accidentally discovered by a young student,​ Sho Fukamachi,​ who triggers the unit's control mechanism.​ Transformed into the Guyver he battles against the bio-morphic Zoanoids controlled by the evil Chronos organization.​
