![Mecha Talk - Zeorymer Explained (Anime & H Manga) + Great Zeorymer ft. BaoZakeruga [ゼオライマー]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/m20C1LidK0s/mqdefault.jpg)
Getter Robo is a cosmic horror story masquerading as a fun (if dark and violent) mecha adventure. Getter Rays are an unstoppable eldritch abomination that have chosen the human race as their vessel, and they will not stop until they have consumed all of existance. Viewed through that lens, Ryoma and co. are villian protagonists who unwittingly are fighting to ensure the destruction of everything but Getter. This is, of course, what makes this series so damn awesome.
Nice
It's kinda hilarious how in Getter Robo, _humanity_ is the cosmic horror inflicted upon the universe. Or at least part of the cosmic horror.
That's the genius! Men have literally sold their souls to getter rays in exchange for protection and comfort. In the series there is a thinly veiled critic on the usage of nuclear power and tecnology, how humanity uses it and the damage that can create.
Until Devolution...in which case, Emperor went and traveled back in time, and attacked humanity.
@@arx3516 I'm pretty sure there's also a criticism to the idea of shunning the unknown, and also rushing into things you don't know enough about.
I'm pretty sure between that, the idea of progressiveness the series seems to want to promote, and the idea that humanity is at its best when we're actually working together, there seems to be a message that we shouldn't stop moving forward, but that moderaton should be applied.
@@arx3516
Incorrect they fused with the getter for survival and prosperity thing is they are crushing everything in their path because of it and they see nothing wrong with it, it is the opposite of the Andromeda Stories, ironicaly.
@@aliesterus1.023 Yup. Look at the Castle Bravo incident and you'll get the metaphor.
Everybody Gangsta until the soul of chogokin geter emperor starts to grow
So it wasn't 4,5?
Now it's 8 feet tall
@@scorpionvenom27 how tall is it now?
@@CrowAkechi_The_Luminary yes
@@scorpionvenom27 ah, I see
So basically, the Getter Rays are the opposite of the Ide. Both are these incredibly powerful cosmic energies yet instead of forsaking humanity for their violent ways, it sides with and embraces them for the same reasons.
Ide?
@@vietthanhnguyen815 From Space Runaway Ideon.
Honestly a crossover of the two would be good, since it would basically be life's desire to evolve at all costs, causing violence to do so, against a being that will restart evolution to stop violence.
I wonder if the Ide sorta despises the Getter rays cause of that... Especially in srw
@@ironconvoy3831 yep. Hmm....what would win? Ideon? Or Getter Robo (Devolution version, full awakening)?
Getter Robo Arc specifically states that Getter Emperor’s memories suddenly jump to Mars at some point, so that basically seems to confirm that Emperor is a direct result of Shin’s evolution at the end of Go. Considering how Arc ends, my guess is that the reason why Emperor doesn’t really recognize the Arc team is because they’re more involved with Shin Dragon/Saint Dragon...whatever it is
"pilots with above average physical and mental abilities"
You're talking about the "break katanas with bare chest, kill medium-sized dinosaurs barehanded, jump from 1km altitude and trash a car on landing, fight army of demons on foot" kind of "above average", right?
I'll be honest, I was pretty afraid of the kind of reception that I would get before uploading this video since I don't really have a nice voice but after reading your comments, I'm glad that I took the time to get this video done. 9 days of research, scripting and video editing was worth it. Love you guys.
Great Video Bro maybe a Shin Mazinger Zero/Great Mazinkaiser for the next Video?
I only have one question. Where do I start reading the manga because Ive always wanted to but the amount of manga always seemed so massive
NerdyPro Getter Robo Saga contains 5 parts. I would recommend you just read them in ascending order.
1. Getter Robo
2. Getter Robo G
3. Shin Getter Robo
4. Getter Robo Go
5. Getter Robo Arc
You can easily find translated chapters on Mangafox or Kissmanga. After which, you can give Getter Robo Anthology a read as its extra stuff.
It never died in the first place
cool, thank you.
It's fortunate for us that Ken Ishikawa gave his blessing that the series move towards this direction. Dinosaurs die and we flourish and continue to do so. Loved that idea!
I absolutely *love* this theory.
And it also terrifies me. What if there is a civilization- more so, what if *our* civilization gets to this point? That's pretty scary, and also pretty damn cool to think about.
Such a shame we lost Ishikawa too soon he was able to change his manga in a genial way.
He knew too much of universe's secrets
I hope his son or someone else could re Master the manga, giving it a good finale and hope that remaster get an OVA adaption
@@RyuKen-1337give this to urosawa and let him cook with a remaster
You might be able to explain Getter Emperor, but i',m sure you can't do the same to the all time unanswered question in the history of Getter Robo
"Why Stoner?"
Not even Getter Emperor itself is able to answer that question
Cause GO and Ken was So stoned that day while creating the Shin Getta ... hope its good enough XD or maybe it was Saotome so high on getto energy with weed ... who knows!
Long story short, this thing is a literal _god_ in mechanical form.
It could _easily_ go head-to-head with the likes of Galactus.
Should've started this a long time ago bro, can't wait for more!
Personally, I love that they kept the Getter Emperor so ambiguous. He's the mythical, all-powerful being in the world of Getter and Super Robots in general. He should be interpreted differently by different author who took on Getter, and that we never need to know the limit of its power (if there's even any limit).
With that said, I still dream of the day SRW does its own version of Getter Emperor and make it playable. As strong as Shin Getter already is, I feel like we need something to match Mazinger ZERO.
Zero vs Emperor would be pretty hype
I was worried you might only talk about one theory you believed, but the presentation and showing multiple possible theories was nice.
Good God men! Do you want the universe to collapse on itself?! Also hate to say but there's a reason why they probably won't fight. Go has said between Getter and Mazinger? It's the Unstoppable Force, Getter Robo, meets the Immovable object, Mazinger, so what would both do? Simple. Surrender... or team up and fuck the galaxy over sideways.
Zero Emperor and adding Guren Lagann to the mix? That would be so much hype. :P
you do know that getter robo daikessen has a funtional getter emperor ship 1 right? thing is almost as broken as shin getter robo g unlocked only in the last level.
I LOVE it! Can't wait to see more of this series.
7:15 that's freaking awesome
Now I see where TTGL got their inspiration
TTGL: who are you
Getter Emperor: I'm you, but I didn't die during my first appearance
@@scorpionvenom27 re-take
TTGL: who are you
Getter emperor: Am you *But stronger*
They got a lot more than that.
@@thatmotivatedchris6749 STTGL > Getter Emperor
@@elitist8159 Zero/Getter emperor > sttgl
Fixed it for you
oh shit waddup
But seriously this was awesome. The reason I greatly love the Getter Emperor is because I am a fan of Lovecraft who created such popular fictional beings like Cuthulu. The Emperor is very lovecraftian, being shrouded in mystery and beyond our understanding. It is neither good or evil, it simply exists as a force of nature and there's nothing we can truly do against it. One can only hope that they do not get in the path of the Emperor just like Cuthulu, we're just small and insignificant to its greater plans.
One thing I do want to note; as people like to make vs debates which is fine as it can be fun, but beings like the Emperor who truly cannot be measured can't clearly be calculated in such a debate.
As it stands now, the Emperor is a mystery which is from a future we will never be a part of or ever know much about, and that is honestly the funnest part about lovecraft archetypes. If by any chance this may sadden you comment section, the last thing I want to say is simple: Once a lovecraftian creature can be explained and put into our understanding, it is no longer a mystery and no longer holds the same power and awe we once enjoyed.
Wassup Bruh. Yeah, I agree that its pretty pointless to put Emperor in a VS Debate since we don't really know its full potential. Everything it has done so far in its appearances are all pretty casual tbh.
Zeta Rise FUCKING UPLOAD A VIDEO YOU LAZY FUCK
it would be ironic if Getter Emperor was created by humans of the future to defend against the Outer Gods, only to discover to have their weapon turn against themselves.
This. Some thing are better left as mystery because thats what make them awesome.
Imagine Ryouma and the Getter team fighting Great Old Ones,Outer Gods, and other Eldritch monstrosities. heck,an SRW game about the main antagonists being Lovecraftian aberrations fighting the Super/Real robots we've come to know and love would be pretty cool.
I've heard of Getter Robo several times, but I've never picked it up. But hearing about this thing is...Wow. It's both awe inspiring and absolutely terrifying. A machine that is constantly evolving, to the point where it could easily be considered a God by most standards. Wow...
I love the mecha genre, but didn't know half of the stuff you talked about in this video, but this didn't stop me from loving it! Keep them going, I love these kind of explanatory videos!
If Getter Emperor is the Super Robot equivalent of an Eldritch god, I can only imagine what it would look like to see Getter Emperor fighting H.P. Lovecrafts pantheon of deities.
Awesome! Very well detailed and explained in a simple way to understand. I can't wait to see your next Mecha Talk video. Since you made a video about Getter, I would like to see one about something related to Mazinger in the future. Keep it up bro!
Once it sets in how fucking powerful Getter Emperor is, and all the stuff with its seemingly infinite growth and being the enemy of the universe, you realize how unimaginably horrifying the Getter Emperor is
“A single uncombined ship has enough power to destroy a planet with a one shot”
_...oh sweet Christ..._
Awesome job on your first episode! I was super excited when I saw this in my subscription feed. Hopefully you keep making videos in this series. The world needs more Mecha.
TTGL: Spiral is the way to endless evolve!
Getter: Hold my reactor
Gurren Lagann is a parody of mecha animes. Spiral energy is like getter ray meets newtype magic.
@@user-pi1lb4tf2f getter rays are real!!!
@@loloeliasreyes1127 how do I get some then
@@user-pi1lb4tf2f More of a homage.
Parody (on a similar level) is Megas XLR.
And then quite a few other JP series but none quite as extensive as the aforementioned two.
Spiral energy is more neutral and an actual energy. It can be used for either good or evil. Getter Rays however is clearly far more sinister, destructive, and possibly even sentient. Unlike Spiral energy, Getter Rays is not a tool and you are not in control.
It's powered by evolution, and eats universes..... It's the fuckin Spiral Nemesis.
I'm surprised Getter Robo and Gurren Lagann haven't made a crossover beyond Super Robot Wars. Yet.
The spirals would shit themselves if emperor getter or zero showed up 😂
A lot of Gurren Lagann was taken from Getter Robo. Gurren Lagann’s creator even said that Getter Robo was his favorite series and cited it as his main inspiration
@@infamousempire8302 Yeah the whole spiral energy was based on getter. And some scenes seem to show homage to it. The whole backstory seems really getter in nature. Felt like the getter fleet.
@@thatmotivatedchris6749 It's funny how the Anti-Spirals are scared of the Spiral Nemesis, and yet their own power stretches to that of infinite multiversal level.
I really enjoyed this video
Thanks!
I enjoyed this a lot. New fan of getter robo blazed through all content I could find in a month. Can say without a doubt it's my favorite series so far.
Believe in Getter Rays
I just recently watched Space Runaway Ideon. If you like the story behind the Getter Rays, I would recommend it. Similarly it deals with a Energy source that is nigh infinite but seems to have a mind of it's own. Both this and the Getter series at times seem more akin to Lovecraftian horrors than super robot show.
Getter Emperor explained in shorter terms: a massive being with immense announcements of power and can absorb absolutely anything including things 100x larger then Emperor and if the Emperor evolves and grows enough it can be bigger than the core of existence and can become a threat to all the realities. (Also many versions of Emperor including New Getter Emperor which is the definition of “nightmare fuel” and all of the Emperors has a getter ray shield which practically makes them invincible and basically everything to do with manipulating space)
All the times I've seen you comment on RUclips and this is the first time I've heard you talk. Strange world.
Wow thanks a ton for compiling all the info like this. Please do more!
I'm glad this video exists.
As it can help explain the Emperor
Well made video, and thanks to that I need to read the rest of the mangas of getter series, keep with the great work you made
Gurren Lagann: we have a Giant robot big as a galaxy
Getter robot: how cute
Great first episode! Learned a lot! Your speaking voice is fine, you kept your tone even throughout the video. Next up, you could do a Mazinger video down the road. That would be pretty interesting to watch.
Amazing man!! Looking forward to more!
Whoa, that was a truckload of cool Getter information! Thank you for the vid and keep making these. Your voice was really good and easy to understand and made the vid a pleasure to watch :D
Thank you for your kind words.
Awesome work ! I want to see a lot more of these kind of videos :)
I'll be honest, Getter Emperor sounds like a menace xD Is there a possibility he'll evolve and not need humanity anymore? Scary.
Getter rays have a liking for humanity.
Well, imagine that Getter and humankind are so closely interlinked that one can be considered another. It doesn't even matter who commands whom.
@@user-co3uc8vt7e Symbiosis, I see.
@@user-co3uc8vt7eeventually getter rays will destroy everything until there nothing to consume and it burns out
I feel like the people who want a playable Getter Emperor totally missed the point of the Getter Emperor.
They probably could have thrown in Getter Emperor in the SRW that featured TTGL's big final battle. I don't know any Japanese to know is if that game actually acknowledges that Spiral Energy and Getter Rays are really the same fucking thing, but I'd actually love to see SRW revisit TTGL and have a storyline where Anti-Spirals are proven right as the "Spiral Nemesis," AKA, Getter Emperor, is born and you actually have to somehow prevent it from consuming the universe.
Once it comes into existence, it's too late to do anything.
Good freaking luck... I can already imagine the stats of that monster.
I disagree strongly about making Getter Emperor have any appearance other than concepts. The whole point of the Emperor itself is that its power cannot be even be understood in the minds of mere humans, kind of like Cthulu.
@@BDtetra but there are sone humans like dr. Saotome and Ryoma Nagare that can comprehend Getter.
One day Devolution will get in SRW and we'll get Emperor.
Devolution is a massive disappointment.
Did u predict the future cuz it is in srw t
@@cappuccinocapputeano
Is it?
@@user-co3uc8vt7e Getter Emperor shows up when Shin Getter Dragon and Shin Getter Robo use a joint Shine Spark.
@@yaminero4858
Does it really count?
Looking forward to these, very niche but important to learn the lore of these series
I'm glad to see something Getter Robo related, good video. I would personally like to see a Mecha Talk video focusing around the obscure video game SD Gundam GX.
Very good video! I'm impressed by your explaination and analysis
already loving this series dude
Everyone Gangsta until Arc got announced
This was some nifty knowledge on Emperor I didn't know! Wasn't aware there were parts of the manga I'd missed out on. With this stuff in mind, I'll need to base the final villain of my mecha comic more closely on Getter Emperor.
One thing I can say about Getter Emperor, he cannot be damaged unlike TTGL even at it's size was damaged and Simon had to go one on one. Getter Emperor can just let out a getter beam other getters will be reborn in worlds and dimensions and back him up again it's truly unstoppable.
great video brother, loved it, keep up the good work
This is great, and I hope for more.
Good job on the video. I wanted to google something like this after watching Shin Getter Armageddon recently
Nice video, this is the first time I have heard your voice and you sound pretty good. Really liked your info on the getter emperor. Would love to see if you can do the same for Mazinger Zero, especially since it's going to be in the next SRW game and no one really seems to know much about that mech.
very good now i confirmed lots of informations i had,good work you've done.
Getter empower is actually bigger then the biggest star in the universe which is 38, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000, 000 meters
Explain Mazinger ZERO, dude. More people need to know about it.
I know, typed this up before he made the vid
With Getter Robo Arc anime series coming out, Getter Emperor will be animated.
Make more of these please. I'd be interested in a video on Mazinger variants
I love how this seemingly "average" super robot show/series, slowly became an eldritch horror.
Loved the vid! Keep em coming! またね！
Getter Emperor = Getter Robo + God Emperor of Mankind + Galactus + Gah Lak Tus
I'm gonna be honest, I actually kinda like this guy's voice
What's up bro, you sound like a Singaporean. If so, proud of what you're doing here. Never be afraid of your voice. I recently got on the Getter series as well, and got myself a SOC of Getter One from Armageddon :) Thanks for the video!
Because he _is_ from Singapore lol
This was a pretty good first episode. I think you should continue the series with some more mechs.
Will do
I would love to see another Getter video from you, D18. Your encapsulation of the series was perfectly straightforward and to the point, and I'm still delving into the series after nearly a decade of being a fan of it. Would you be willing to cover Getter Robo Devolution at any point? After reading it for myself, I'd love to hear you viewpoint on it.
I will think about it.
Next time can you explain All the version of Getter Robot, or most of them?
Midori Natsume Theres so many getters not sure if you realize that its kinda hard to explain every getter thats out there
Laughs in getter robo hein
3:57 He is more evil than the MCU Thanos.
Fantastic work bro!! All fear the Getter Emperor!!
I think Getter Emperor is the true Spiral Nemesis.
I have never seen something so OP but enjoyable and reasonable now I'm watch a ton of Getta fights
This was a great first episode! By far the most thorough summary I've found of the Emperor yet (since his most involved manga appearance was never finished). Do you think you could talk about Mazinger ZERO, or is there not enough info yet to build off of?
I'll probably wait until all the chapters of Mazinger Zero has been translated first before tackling Zero.
Hey, nice video bro.
Can't wait for next videos.
Hmmm, how about Gundam or Mazinger topics?
there is no more mecha-talk we are all sad bro
please do more we loved this stuff
Bro, the site sucks now.
Demonbane: I'm OP not even TTGL can touch me
Getter Emperor: Hold my Getter Rays
Mazinger ZERO: Pathetic.
@@monsieurnaggert3134 well,demonbane still strongest mecha
@@man_without_name No.
This is a pretty awesome video and very well constructed
If your taking a few suggestions, how about the Ideon
Yeah, more videos on the various OP mechas of anime and manga history would be appreciated. Ideon, Demonbane, TTGL, Mazinger Zero, freaking Neo Granzon...the sky's the limit.
***** I know that
I showed up in the Ideon vid
i love it thanks man 😍😍😍😍
Awesome, i only know getter emperor when appear in shin getter robot armaggedon and i wanted to know more about it. Good video.
someday we shall have Final dynamic special with Mazinger Zero, Mazin Emperor G
And Our Lord Getter Emperor
Drunk Lucario That Do Stupid Sh*t On The Internet
And it shall be named "True Final Dynamic Special" or something along those lines.
Awesome, Great Video. Do TTGL next.
Your voice sounds like Singaporean/Malaysian for me.... because this is how I talk too. 😂 Great job on the video! Looking forward for your future video! :)
Haha, that's because I am Singaporean
Well, this is a pretty good introduction to getter robo if anyone needs one. Getter Robo Armageddon, despite the story problems is really fun to watch, as is the manga, its great! So yeah, thanks for introducing me to this series D18, no offense in particular, but I like this series way more than evangelion, considering the fact the characters are more fun in getter robo. By the way, director for eva, I really liked shin godzilla, so I didn't mean to offend you if you are reading this. But, I went with the music of getter robo Armageddon and Ryoma and Go just being insanely awesome characters.
Yo man you think there be a chance that you'll bring mecha talk back? Cause you actually got me more into mecha cause of these videos
Not with how garbage this website has become.
You did a nice job on this vid. You should do one on Ideon
As I remember (but it could be a translation error), Emperor's Fate it's to consume everything and then move into a new universe, in the form of getter rays, in order to repeat an infinite cycle of creation and feeding. And if Getter exist in a universe, first or later, Emperor will become a reality, because it's not just a living being, but a singularity.
YOOOOO this is fucking great! I had no idea you made channels, I remember seeing you in basically every One-Minute-Melee comment section lol
You know, I look at this, and I gotta wonder if it's all a time loop. The Getter Rays that started it all... what it they came from Emperor? I mean, with no real place to go once you hit 'I'm a universe' (nothing left to eat and only Entropy out there), it would make sense that it may decide to go Big Bang and create a new universe or even a few (who knows with it's potential) and leave a spreading of Getter Rays out to start it all over again.
Or you know, time shenanigans, or another 'Getter' of similar power did was Emperor did to other galaxies (that does leave the idea of 'what would this 'being' be and why isn't it about when Emperor is?). Hmm hmm, questions and theories for later.
Came late to this party as I saw your comment on a video from the new SRW V game. I too am a huge fan of the Getter Robo series as well as other countless mecha in the Super Robot Wars Series. Having watched most of the anime growing up, my own conclusion is that the Getter Emperor is indeed a force of destruction that is to be feared much like the Mazinger and GaoGaiGar. However in the end it is the humans who wield and direct the destructive power, in this case the Getter Rays. I loved the ending to Armageddon where Ryouma and co. have to stay in the rip of time and space to battle beings that abuse the power of the Getter Rays. Locked in an eternal struggle to ensure the safety of the universe, countless humans or getter teams from different time and space (dimensions?) battle the "invaders" that have evolved differently. So to me there are different Ryoumas, Hayatos, Benkeis, and even Musashis. Although both the original Ryouma and Armageddon Ryouma have the best getter beam battle cry! Finally, Black Getter is the best! Side note, I'm quite sad Gurren Lagann is not in the SRW V series and Grendizer is also due for an appearance. TL;DR well done and continue with the videos!
So Getter Emperor is stronger than Mazinger Zero ?
It's pointless to do a comparison. At their point, both Getter Emperor and Mazinger Zero are already beyond the comprehension of our feeble mortal minds.
Great video! I have a basic level of english, but thanks to god your voice is very "understandable". (?
Need moaar!! *Kreygasm*
Do one for the connection between Shin Getter Robo and Mazinkaiser
Great First Video, Seems like Ishikawa also created the inspiration for the Ide
1. They are both sentient energy forms
2. Both help humanity while at the same time being implied to be using humanity for it's own goals
3. Both are very volatile and unpredictable
The fact that Arc ended means that we will never know the true limit of the Emperor, if it has one.
Yes, but with a few adjustments.
getter does not use humanity for his own purposes. in their goals he uses and humanity, and dinosaurs, and demons, and country Andromeda. Everyone. And Yes,getter is not energy. it's everything in the universe. and what about the unpredictability-reading the manga I wonder how Ishikawa gorgeous manga did. every time I find something new.
Imagine if we get a special SRW where Getter Emperor makes his debut, and he's become the main Villain, and we teamed up with Anti-Spiral to stop Getter Emperor.
This video will soon be very important
awesome video would love to see something on tekkaman or ryu kight
Getter Robo: The most manly cosmic horror fiction
The big mouth that appears in the end of Armagedon. It's the mouth of la'gous
nice video my man!
Have you considered making a "Beginners Guide to Super Robot Wars?" I think it would be a cool idea, especially to get a veterans perspective
This was righteous, nice one man!
Now: Getter Emperor in super spiral space, how screwed are we?
More screwed than anime fans on prom night
OH MY.
Spiral Rays are basically watered down Getter Rays, this is basically confirmed from everything stated about Spiral Rays and their potential versus Getter Rays.
Getter Emperor would probably make a "Getter Space" and evolve it's enemies some actual instinct to not fuck with it, that or wipe them out for they are attempting to halt evolution.
a beast itself
this is super awesome and informative!! good job explaining the bat shit crazy story from getter series. I always loved the ova series because its more adult oriented as depicted in the manga. but the manga itself is very hard to find, the japanese text is quite hardcore. with your explanation, i got a better idea of the getter universe. You should do the mazinkaiser! the mangas for mazinkaiser is pretty fucked up but awesome too lol!
