*Narrator:* In the far reaches of the Milky Way, on the Planet Zi, there exists metallic life forms that posses superior fighting skills. These are the Zoids. Warriors by nature, Zoids have been used as the ultimate weapons in an ongoing war between the Imperial forces, and the Republicans of Planet Zi.
(From Season 2):The prolonged war on Planet Zi is finally over. However, some antagonists continue to use powerful Zoids in an attempt to stir up renewed conflict. In response, the Empire and the Republic jointly established the Guardian Force. A task force with the express purpose of maintaining the peace. Van Flyheight and Fiona along with the Organoid Zeke, dedicate themselves to helping ensure peace and stability for the people of Planet Zi. Together, they are the Guardian Force fighters.
*(Extra phase from Season 1):* A young boy named Van, born and raised on Zi, holds a strong fascination with Zoids. He develops a special friendship with a Zoid called Zeke, who is able to fuse with another Zoid, thereby enhancing its fighting ability. He also meets a girl called Fiona with whom he starts a journey of discovery to find out about her mysterious past.
Ironically, most of the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park hail from the Cretaeous period as well, as you probably well know. Just another interesting parallel.
I really wish they will continue the storyline after CC and the NC series. This was a great anime, re-watched it the past few days after a couple of years, still chilling.
You know how it's really hard for IP holders to sue Chinese bootleggers who make obvious knockoff toys and whatnot, because of different legal systems in the different countries? I'd imagine it's something like that. Or Universal just really liked the Ultrasaurous.
@kyuubinyoko The very beginning sounds like Walking With Dinosaurs, then it fades into JP's theme. XD Those must be the inspirations, as they do capture the majestic movements of large sauropod dinosaurs, like the Ultrasaurus
4:48 Good Luck huh right (Beek Beeps) Huh I know you. ....Wheres Van at? Raven Leave the empire you tarnished our reputation! I'm gonna ask you one last time, Nice and slow so that even you will understand me. Where is Van? Sure beats me I don't know Well than its been a slice chatting with you.
@dogfight001 Actually, the Ultarsaurus may be a Brachiosaurid, but it's different from the type genus, Brachiosaurus. The ones in JP were Brachiosaurus brancai, which was later found out to be a different animal called Giraffatitan. Brachiosaurus still exists in the species Brachiosaurus altithorax. The commonly depicted one usually has Giraffatitan features.
Jurassic park was 1st i think and the theme seemed right for this as its the 1st time the huge dinosaur zoid moved but there is a bout 2-3 between the 2
kok i noticed that when i 1st heard the flashback of events at the beginning of each episode but i guess the song is an amazing and powerful song to use and fits really well
@Firedoomcaster Well this theme is played with a Zoid that looks like a dinosaur we see off Jurassic park I mean afterall the Ultrasaurus is a Brachiosaurus basically
@redtail i remembered back when i posted the comment lol i thought it play.ed during the ultrasaurus scenes but i'm gonna have to rewatch CC to be sure.
@raptros Hmm. I'll have to bust out my CC as well. It's one of the only two songs on the OST I never heard in the anime. The other one is on the Storm Sworder Theme. That second one. But I still can't find the song it plays when Rosso and Viola are testing out the boosters on the Sworders. That strange techno-beat.
i dont miss it cuz i've downloaded all the episodes (of each series) on an extrnal Hard drive :D + im making a small morpg of zoids check my video of the Battle system (work in progress) :) oh great now i have to start watching this again! (pulls out hard drive and locks myself in room with an ample amount of snacks)
Rev Raptor=Velociraptor Genosaurer/Geno Breaker=Tyrannosaurus Godos=Tyrannosaurus Gojulas=Tyrannosaurus Red Horn/Dark Horn=Styracosaurus Like i said based from the jurassic period
anybody know the name of that track that plays in that one episode of gaurdian force where van is doing training and then irvine shows up and they battle
"the prolonged war on planet zi, is finally over... however some antigonists continue to use powerfull zoids in an attempt to stir up renewed conflict, in response the republic and the empire jointly established the guardian force a task force with the sole purpose of maintaining the peace" i think i said it right no?
