Hi all!
Since it appears that the Gatchaman II section of the site will continue to be MIA for the foreseeable future, I figured I'd post the requested information of the Gatchaman II villains here instead.
I hope this helps!
James
********************
Gatchaman II
Governor X
(Character Voice: Nobuo Tanaka)
Governor X returned to Earth two years after the Black Hole Operation was defeated ("Gatchaman" radio drama #10). he landed in the ocean in the Southern Hemisphere, off the west coast of Africa. His arrival was marked by his smashing through and sinking the cruise ship Queen Margaret. From the wreckage, he chose a drowning child and saved her. This was not a magnanimous act, for X took the child and accelerated her growth. Now with the body of an adult, X renamed the mutated girl Gel Sadra, and made her the commander of a new Gallactor (#1).
The assumption was that X had recreated Gallactor for the same purpose as the original group, to conquer the Earth, but this was not the case. Instead, the "Super Mind of Space" ("Gatchaman II" Planning) had returned to use Earth as a base of operations for the Solar Shift Plan. Using Beam Guns placed on Mars, Venus, and across the Earth, X intended to move the sun out of our solar system and send it into Planet 013,001 of the Proxima System, the planet that destroyed X's homeworld (#52). In a continuity note, the name of X's homeworld was mysteriously shortened from 'Selector' to 'Select' (From "Gatchaman" radio drama #8 on).
Upon his return, Governor X's superficial appearance was changed, but the way he appeared to Gel Sadra was essentially the same as he had done with Berg Katse: a strange face on a screen inside his chambers (#3, among others). Unlike before, X did spend more time overseeing work at locations other than Gallactor Headquarters (#'s 1, 40, 50, 51).
More details of Governor X's background finally came to light. It was revealed that Governor X was originally led to Earth when Dr. Raphael made contact with him via the Leap Wave, a subspace communication wave (#'s 12, 49). Once X arrived of Earth, he used Raphael to establish Gallactor, but Raphael turned against X when he realized X's intention for world conquest. As Dr. Raphael knew too much about Governor X's true form, X told Katse Berg Katse to assassinate the Doctor, a task which Katse failed (#49).
That true form which X had kept hidden for so long was revealed to be that of a "Space Brain," a super machine lifeform, a living computer capable of independent thought and action. By the time the Science Ninja Team confronted X, he had built several defenses against attackers, including powerful beam guns capable of cutting through the capes of the Ninja Team's uniforms, and strong magnets to draw away any metal objects from his foes (#52). For all his vast abilities, Governor X could not truly understand human emotions, and this failing would eventually lead to his downfall (#'s 50, 51, 52).

Think I will just create a new one, I cannot seem to find any record of a Gatchaman 2 forum ever being here, though I thought there was

I remember the Gatch 2 section on this site. It was here last year, when I've made my account.

Hi all!
And here's the part on Marstora.
James
*****************
Marstora
(Character Voice: Osamu Ichikawa)
The Commander of Governor X's Solar Shift Base on Mars. His existence was kept secret from Gel Sadra until his forces came to Earth to eliminate facilities that could discover his base.
He had no liking for Gel Sadra and her failures, and insulted her by giving her the nickname 'Lazy Sadra' (#43). This dislike quickly developed into a rivalry between the two to see who could please Governor X more (#45).
Marstora had his own saucer-shaped ship for transportation, which he used to travel between Mars and Earth. It could fire missiles, beam weapons, and even came loaded with several different styles of robots for combat on the ground or in space. For protection, it could produce an energy barrier (#'s 43, 44).

Hi all!
For some reason, I'm having some problems loading the segment of Gel Sadra. It's like this board doesn't like her or something. I'll keep trying, and we'll see how long it takes.
James

I'm looking forward to the last piece, and I'm enjoying the information you have already posted!
Thank you, James!

Was Marstora actually from Mars? He seem quite human. And if there were life forms of facilitties, ISO's sattellites should have detected them.

They never say exactly where he originated from, but my assumption is that Marstora is a human being who happens to be living and working on Mars.
And yes, you're right, I.S.O. satellites would have detected Marstora's base on Mars, which is exactly why he came to Earth in the first place. He was trying to destroy those satellites and their control centers in an attempt to prevent the discovery of his base until it was too late to stop the Solar Shift Plan.

Hi Everyone!
Well, I've tried again and again, but for some reason the information reagrding Gel Sadra refuses to post. I keep getting a "HTTP 406 Not Acceptable" error message instead. Since I've been unable to figure out what exactly makes it unacceptable (I've tried cutting it into smaller chunks, so it's definitely not too long, I've tried retyping it so there can't have any strange characters that might make the system hiccup, nothing seems to work), the only solution I can think of is, if you want to read that portion, write me directly at jbl@cts.com, and I'll e-mail it to you.
What a pain...
James

Oh Cee ep!
It looks like here is another person who is having this posting problem. I never heard back about mine. I'm not going to post those last three paragraphs.
I decided not to bug you any more about it, you have enough on your plate.

@tatsunokofan
Try using a different web browser when viewing the page and then retry posting. If you are posting from a Word document, copy the contents into a text file first, then copy it over to the post. It may be that there are hidden characters in the text.
@cloud
Could not find anything wrong with what you had written so I am going to ask you to do the same as what I have mentioned above.

My personal website, one story wouldn't be accepted because it had the word "open"; the server security didn't want to process the entry, thinking it might be a malicious attempt to get the word "open" into a script on the server which could then run and do nasty things. (I've had them set the security a bit more trusting.)
So, can you narrow down it down to the section / paragraph / word?

Already tried. I even tried retyping the entire thing from scratch in the "Post Reply" box on this site so that there couldn't be some hidden characters messing things up. Nothing worked. I really don't know why, since all the others went through just fine. So, simply put, if anyone wants to read the Gel Sadra portion, drop me an e-mail, and I'll send it to you, because it won't be appearing on this site.

I too have tried all the things mentioned by tatsunokofan.
Although, this text file thing looks interesting. May have to try to figure out what that means, when I have time.

That's what you get after a hangover. I wish I had better writing skills and a more fluent English. No smurfs, though.
Sweet dreams
