About[]
Gamera was a "Capsule Monster" in Cosplay Warrior Cutie Knight.
Capsule Monster from the Ultraman franchise is one of the main inspiration sources for the Pokémon franchise.[2] Noriaki Yuasa directed Gamera in Cosplay Warrior Cutie Knight where Ryu Hariken, one of authors of Manga Boys Special Edition: Gamera, played Gamera.[1] Yuasa also appeared as the character Dr. Yuasa.
Trivia[]
- Noriaki Yuasa was once appointed for Mirrorman, but this was eventually cancelled. However, Yuasa instead joined Ultraman 80 and other Ultra-related productions Anime-chan and Princess Comet.
- Both Yuasa and Mamoru Sasaki participated in Princess Comet; these two were appointed for reboot attempts of Daimajin on television in 1960s and Daimajin Kanon.
- Expertise from the aforementioned Ultraman 80, and connections of Ultraman Powered, along with the cancelled project of Ultra Q largely influenced the production of the Heisei Gamera trilogy.
- This cancelled Ultra Q project was redeveloped into Ultra Q The Movie: Legend of the Stars by Akio Jissoji. Akio Jissoji's 1979 video release of Ultraman largely inspired Gamera: Super Monster. Akio Jissoji also participated in Ultraman Max, which has a connection with Heisei Gamera trilogy.
- Heisei Gamera trilogy instead influenced the entire tokusatsu genre afterward especially Ultraman and Kamen Rider, and there have been a number of references to the Gamera franchise by the two franchises.
- Gamera the Brave and Ultraman Tiga and Digimon Tamers are sister productions that were redeveloped from the early scripts for Gamera: The Guardian of the Universe. This plot called "Konaka Gamera" was instead influenced by the 1972 film Daigoro vs. Goliath by Tsuburaya Productions.
