ADV Films is proud to announce the next instalment in the new story of the original bad boy of anime: Guyver: The Bioboosted Armour vol. 2 - Procreation of the Wicked slices its way into stores 6th August!



 


The Guyver has been a cult-classic for over 20 years, spawning over 150 manga chapters, two live-action movies, an OVA, and a short series.

The Story:

Two Guyvers collide.  One will fall, and another will rise again.  With each passing day, the evil grip of the Chronos Corporation seems to tighten on Sho.  When his friend Mizuki is targeted by a powerful Zoanoid and innocent lives are lost, he has no choice but to step forward and settle things once and for all.  Unfortunately, Sho soon finds that he’s bitten off more than he can chew, as the transformed Genzo Makishima exacts his bitter revenge on the Guyver I.  Meanwhile, the enigmatic Guyver III puts his own plans into action and prepares for a final showdown at Chronos Headquarters.  As the countdown to destruction begins, the three Guyvers face off and the shocking truth behind the creation of the Zoanoids is revealed.
