I've had this account a long time, but have always lurked.
I made an alternative link for download: http://www.filefactory.com/file/a0b3e04/n/...f_Control_1986_
Hopefully it should work for most of you.
I've seen the recent TV series and half or so of the '90s series. I didn't mind this one for being a one-shot OVA from the 1980s.
Wasn't one of Sho's friends that was killed off quickly a main character in the recent TV series and manga? Also, was the female Guyver a replacement for Guyver II from the recent series/manga as well? Seemed like a sort of similar character. Guyver III is supposed to be Sho's classmate if I'm not mistaken, but he hardly got much air time. I'm a little vague on the issues, sorry.
Going a bit off topic I recall the recent series being very open ended. I wouldn't mind a sequel, seeing that I recall the manga is surprisingly still on going. They could probably continue to be true to the manga as it is so long that they'd have a long time to catch up to it.
Guyver Out of Control - 1986
in Anime or Science Fiction

The '80s and '90s are my favorite decades in anime, definitely.
It feels a mixture of Super Robot style/monster of the week, real robot with a mature soap opera, and Power Rangers/Kamen Rider. Also, a lot of mystery and conspiracy/thriller. Sounds like an odd mix at first glance. I was even skeptical before I saw some of it, but I became pretty interested. It sounds pretty crazy that the manga is still going. I can't even imagine what is going down now. That's why I'd love to see an extend to the recent series and possibly branch off a little.
