Welcome to Gaia! ::

I was wondering is there such thing as a hybrid type? I have to admit I am a super robot wars fan and played most of the games, however my knowledge is kinda limited when it comes to things in the super robot universe.

There are two mech that makes me confused and makes me wonders if there really should be a hybrid type.

The first one is Dunbine units, which I first thought was a real type but then someone mentioned that it is a super type and I was surprised. I thought that super types are those things with high def and sucky evasive/hit rate.

The other one is DisAstranagun, theres been argument which I found on YouTube that people claiming it's a super type or one of the other. Considering the kind of attacks it uses, it looks more of a super type even if I try to accept it as a real type.

Have anybody thought of something like this?

Dunbine, I cannot comment on, having never actually seen it. I wish to remedy that in the future, but at the moment, I'm rather SOL.

The Dis Astranagant, however, seems to fit the bill of a Super. It runs off recycled dead people, for crying out loud. Calling it a Real would be like calling GaoGaiGar a Real.

The only mechs I'll admit to being gray on are EVA Units, as they seem to have two very distinct styles (but would having a Super side period make them Supers, or would that be like calling the R-Series Supers..?), and the Cybuster (the tech involved is perfectly normal where it comes from, but haxx here).

i dont know the dis Astranagun so no comment on that one but i know dunbine and i think that if someone think its a super it has to be because of the damage that thing can do....other than that dunbine is REAL all the way it has a sick evade rate...really poor def and armor and its weapons are strictly REAL or normal so per say a knife a rifle and stuff exept they are powered whit the pilots aura.....and ray YES the should go back to the SRW games i loved my dumbine it could take on all the enemis of the map alone you got to love that....on the eva mather well tecnicly they arent even robots i mean they are alive its just covered in armor and use human like weapons so ya i would go whit a hivbrid

Thanks for the reply guys. Here's some present biggrin

Mauricios-Thanks, I can now accept that Dunbine is a Real. Yes we all love
to see the speed devil of srw makes a comeback.

Razz B -Yep, I don't think basing only on stats is a good way to
determine a machine's type. The systems and fighting
mechanics have to be taken into consideration too.

How about SRX, it's real type right?

Hey, what about the Cybuster?

Like before mentioned, the Cybuster's tech is everyday in La Gias, but on Earth, it's totally foreign. It takes some harsh scrutiny to determine it exactly, but I lean to Real, as it was technically a Real in it's original world.

Pentagrams and hexagrams are just common symbols in Japan, as they have a point for each major aspect of the world in ye olde Japanland. Just a cultural thing.

Agreed, it's symbol that used by the omnyou (japanese magicians) dating back in the Heian era if I'm not mistaken. Those symbol usually seen as a symbol of mysticism or magic rather than religious meanings.



That is a really good explanation. I really wanted to think Cy as a real but those magical attacks makes me think twice. That would also makes Granzon/Neo Granzon real too right?
