Where does the Cyborg 009 vs Devilman series fit in? I've quite literally just got into both of these franchises so I was at a loss for words when finding out they crossed over.


The thing about crossovers is they only matter if a Transformer, Ultraman, or Kamen Rider Decade shows up in them. Otherwise, they're self-contained things that will never be referenced again, unless it's another crossover.

The anime is I'm guessing more like the original in that Jet Link/002 has ridiculous looking dark hair as opposed to the more recent blonde hairstyles.


Well I'm not that much of an expert on the franchise but these things don't really fit with eachother, they're all just different takes on the same story. The crossover with Devilman doesn't even fit that, as usual for crossovers, it's just a for fun thing using both franchises that doesn't fit the canon of either. And yes the anime reproduces Ishinomori's art style, and as a personal thing I'd rather have it look distinctive and as old school as it is rather than change it to make it fit the same mold as everything else nowadays.

EDIT: Or what Clanjos said.

So... I suppose I'll take 009 from America then... LOL

This is a pretty nice rounded cast from around the world. I'm glad a non-superhero RP is going somewhere for once!

Though now I realize that save for the japanese man we don't actually have any non-caucasians.

We're also missing a 003, so there's the potential for more racial diversity there. Maybe also a third woman? Who knows.

If we don't get somebody for 003 I'll make a new take on 008 and make him like a mishmash of 008 and 002. Make him an all terrain kinda cyborg. And non-Caucasian. Maybe make it a female. We'll give it till the end of the weekend though in case @rocketrobie2 is still submitting a CS.

I should go ahead and mention my schedule only permits me to do much of my RP'ing between Saturday and Monday, and then from Tuesday through Friday when I'm working I just check in, answer PM's, etc. The idea is over the course of the RP the group will come together whether they want to or not because Adam is THAT much of a threat. I'm thinking he'll kill an important person in government somewhere, then tank a few fighter planes, etc. during his reign of terror. But fair warning, he's already looking for us. His main directive is to wipe out the existing cyborgs to recreate himself as a super cyborg.

I've got a friend working on a 003 right now, so we'll see how things go.

If I knew 003 was actually available (I thought someone else took it) I would've taken it for Nigel. To be fair though the numbering doesn't matter too much right?

@DrewVonAwesome Right. And I'm probably gonna give this a few more days since more people are looking in on this iCheck. I don't just wanna accept the first eight players who submit CS's. Still deciding on a power and personality for my American...

I like all of the CS's I've seen thus far and they're everything I could've asked for in a multi-cultural cast.

I did like the size manipulation character idea. Saves us needing a flyer.

That kinda plays on shapeshifting though, since cybernetics couldn't just make a guy double or triple in size. I thought about teleportation or energy absorption/projection. I thought about a flyer as well, but rather than flight like the original 002 he'd be a wind manipulator and his arms and legs could produce whirlwinds.

Opinions on ANY of that are welcome. I'll also go ahead and let somebody apply for a UN sanctioned Guardian to play good cop/bad cop whenever the government finds out Adam is another Cyborg.

Sure but it can be in a more telescoping sense, kind of like Inspector Gadget only not as... silly.

@Omega Man It feels kind of silly to hold off on at least making the OOC in the RP section when you've already got 8 dedicated players. I totally get not wanting to immediately approve the first 8 that pop in, but if you start getting things moving then you'll get more potential interest from people who don't scan the ichecks, and we'll be ready to kick things into gear as soon as you say "go."

Ill try and get to it tonight, but the main reason I wait to start an OOC until I have a few approved CS's is because in my experience it never pans out. I had a good bit of interest in an Ultraman themed RP iCheck, and even a couple completed CS's. I got too enthused about it and started an OOC... and then one person posted their CS and nobody else came back. It's probably happened 6 or 7 times now. Off the top of my head the Ultraman game, Uncanny Avengers, WWII Superheroes, a Power Rangers RP, and at least two stat based RP's in Tabletop. As well as a couple RP's based on video games....

But yeah... I got off work a little early and after I help with some cleaning and dinner I'll see what I can work up.

See, beyond the general risk of sudden death in any RP, in my experience it's usually when games kinda meander for too long (too much time between intcheck and actual thread, too much time between advancing posts, too much time spent trying to plan everything out OOC, you get the idea) that they lose people's attention and die off. I get where you're coming from though.

Worth noting, 007 is just a generic number; I'm willing to change it to any number that's suitable if need be.

Welcome aboard, friend! If you're lucky, maybe we can be catty Frenchmen together!

Also, Omega Man, could you link me the Ultra game? It sounds interesting.
