Randomly thinking about how the Getter team is obviously human, they are *not* normal but they are still humans who can die, and we see in most series at least one cast member is always killed off-

But sometimes in my mind I deny that they can actually die. Like, the amount of shit Ryoma and Hayato have survived is fucking insane, especially when you consider the only canon they die is the manga timeline which even THEN saids a lot.

Ryoma was absorbed into the Getter which is still a death but also because of how emperor is he’s most DEFINITELY been cloned by now even if we don’t see him, and Hayato only really got confirmed dead in arc anime, but who’s to say now that he’s been absorbed into the Getter too now technically the same wouldn’t happen to him? And this also doesn’t even count it happened for Musashi even if it’s the most fucked up.

But putting aside the insanity of the manga timeline for a second, most of Ryomas fate don’t even end up with him dead even if you could argue hes in purgatory in a sense, the arma ending is more vague but he likely lived but new? As painful as it is he is still ALIVE and kicking ass even if we only see it for a frame.

At this point the Getter Team is immortal but not in the traditional sense, just immortal in “the narrative will keep me alive in various different ways and my god even if I suffer I’ll make use out of it” way.

#meg text #getter robo #ryoma nagare #hayato jin #i don’t know what came over me to say this instead of the other shit in my head #but I’m glad this is a getter tumblr post to exist now #but seriously like ryoma and hayato really are two different spectrums of being alive by the narrative #ryoma is “I’m too angry to die because of the narrative and I’m gonna fucking fight it even if it’s pointless”#and hayato is “the narrative won’t let me fucking die I’m sad”#and musashi just- haunts the narrative #the other characters really don’t get to this level cause go team only real fucked up fate is the manga #Toei arma and neo are good endings for them but that could never happen to OG trio ever #arc team ending up in the air and who knows if will ever get a au version of them ever but at least all the team is there #The only good ending the OG boys get is like- toei and Neo but even still musashi fucking dies😭#the rule of thumb is either one of them has to die all but hayato has to die Ryoma sacrifices himself to keep everyone alive #or arma ending where they go out together which ig you could count that as a bittersweet end (but musashi is still DEAD)
