Getter Robo Anthology ~Will of Evolution~ Complete

Here's the last chapter of Getter Robo Anthology, translated by the ever amazing Chen Gong. The last chapter of the book focuses on the events that ended Musashi's life - it's an interesting look into what might have transpired during those final moments and a fitting conclusion to this tribute manga.

Once again, I'd just like to express my thanks to Chen Gong for saving this project and for being great to work with. Also, thanks to C-K for translating the first chapter of this volume and for his work on the Shin Getter Robo manga in general. I'm pretty glad to have another manga completed, and I hope you all enjoy it!

    1. Well, it is nice to be able to just sit and read the whole thing at once.

  2. Thank you for your hard work, I've been waiting for Will of Evolution for the longest time and these updates have always been a treat to see pop up on this site.

    And this last chapter was no exception. Cracking stuff. Thanks again!

  3. Oh man, that last chapter was beautiful. It was so nice seeing Musashi's last moments in his point of view. That's right big guy, you'll be one step ahead of them ;-;. I think this one is my favorite of the bunch but they were all a fun read. Hmm can't quite make up my mind which chapter was the most perverse: Nagai's or Masakazu's... betting on the former XD. Now all that's left is Getter Arc X3.

  4. Anyone else getting a TTGL vibe?

    It seems to be that trusting in the getter will get the race chosen up to the spiral nemesis but they won't be able to beat it

    Sort of like it's one step in power below Tengen Toppen Gurren Lagann.


    In one of the earlier chapters didn't the place ryomas female descendant get stuck in look exactly like the place anti spirals put the spiral races?

    There should be a hell of a lot more crossover fics!

    1. Gurren Lagann has been said to be the best animated Getter series. Also, what's up with people spelling it "Tengen Toppen"? We're not in Sweden.

    2. Well Getter was the inspiration for TTGL so its not surprising but I don't think Getter Ray is weaker than Spiral Energy though. Short version, its sentient, more permanent and Getter Emperor planet size already has the power to travel/crush time/space/multiverse and cause the Big Bang so let's not think what he can do when he's Galaxy Size. The destruction of the universe is a natural outcome and Getter will cause it eventually. Even when it does happen Getter will keep on moving forward, probably bring about new life/universe and repeat the cycle of life. Pretty much, same/difference as TTGL but with fists.

  5. is there anything specifically stating this isn't canon with the main getter series? Its got Nagai's direct involvement, carries on the theemes of the series, and fits in easily between the lines. I just wonder if theres any actual statement about its canonicity

    1. Surely Nagai wouldn't have as much say in the matter as Ishikawa, the actual man behind Getter? Or am I missing something here.
      Besides, Getter practically runs on alternate realities and elseworlds these days so I'm sure all these stories fit somewhere just fine.

    2. If it's not included in Getter Robo Saga, it's not part of the main Getter canon. Plus, as Anonymous said, Nagai really has nothing to do with the Getter manga series.

      There's a lot of Getter manga series out there that aren't part of Getter Robo Saga. Stuff like Dynamic Super Robot Wars, the Daikessen series, Getter Juvenile and whatnot. Some of these are even made by Ishikawa, yet are non-canon to the main series.

  6. Watch out what you wish for... Chapter Zero of Devilman G is already out... And i was thinking there's NO WAY someone would pick it up...
