Wombat: Forces 5 teenagers to wear heart bracelets against their will that make them have to fight evil and endanger their lives.
Also wombat: Doesn’t like it when he’s the one being forced to wear something.
“I just had to open my big mouth, didn’t I? Oh yeah, I just love tofu, it’s so cool, it’s a deadly weapon. A DEADLY WEAPON THAT’S ABOUT TO KILL MY SOCIAL LIFE, THAT IS!”
Comments from Boueibu VAs regarding 10 year anniversary/movie (Student Council Vers.)
Another month has gone past and so has another Binanshi...(You can see the Defence Club version here.)
See original comments on the Boueibu website here.
(Also @raihanstrapinch because she wanted these.)
Hiroshi Kamiya (Kinshiro's VA):
Congratulations on 10 years, Chikyuu Boueibu series!
...eh? 10 years? What? That's scary...Time passes fast, huh...?
Anyhow, Mugihito and director Takamatsu seem to be lively and that's good! I'm good, too! I also recorded for the movie in good spirits! If everyone watching it could get rid of their worries and fatigue, then they'd be in good spirits too! [1] Thank you in advance!
Jun Fukuyama (Ibushi's VA):
It's already been 10 years for the Chikyuu Boueibu series?! Then a movie?! Something's wrong... (LOL)
Well, well, let's use the water to briefly cool ourselves off [2].
Mmm. Certainly, it seems it always feels like this, huh? (LOL)
Everyone, is the water OK?
Takuma Terashima (Akoya's VA):
Congratulations on 10 years! Over a period of 10 years, the radiance of love has not disappeared and love is eternal - I feel those are strong messages to get.
But, sure enough, Boueibu is chaotic! (LOL) With it, there's really a laugh around every corner [3]. Surprise, letting [everyone] show off, heart pounding, laughs, big excitement - it'll become that kind of movie experience!
To you who continues to give love, to you who remembers love's brilliance, to you who realises new love - thank you very much.
Boueibu is great!!
Hiroki Yasumoto (Zundar's VA):
10th anniversary...Time sure passes fast, huh? It was lively [4] and the initial members have also become impressive, so it's somewhat moving. No, is that not so? Yes? How is it? What do you think about that? What do you think about dat? Da. [5]
That's why meeting Zundar again, too, is a complicated feeling - [both] happy and scary *laughs*.
For the next 10 years ahead, I also wish for this to be a work overflowing with a power that is able to accept love-da. I will also work hard-da. I want you to await it expectantly-da.
Bonus: Terashima's tweet:
Binan Koukou Chikyuu Boueibu is coming back!
Enough time has passed that it feels a bit nostalgic - it's reasonable to say our memories have faded. In that sense, it's a frightening work. *laughs*
It's a work perfectly suited to winter, where it will warm up everyone watching...probably.
Please look forward to it. <3
[Note 1: Kamiya uses 元気 several times in slightly different contexts.]
[Note 2: "Cool off" in the literal sense as well as "cool our heads after hearing about the sudden comeback of Boueibu".]
[Note 3: めちゃくちゃ was used as "chaotic" and "really" respectively.]
[Note 4: Literally "fresh", so considering the bit about initial members shortly after this point, the "it" at the start of the sentence is referring to the original Boueibu series.]
[Note 5: Yasumoto goes douda? for "How is it?". He then goes dounanda? for "What do you think about that?", forces Zundar's -da sentence ending on to dounanda? (by using katakana instead of hiragana), then uses the sentence ending normally.]
Comments from Boueibu VAs regarding 10 year anniversary/movie
Can't remember who exactly was asking for a translation of these, but if no one else has tackled them yet (as of posting this)...see under the cut.
Kazutomi Yamamoto (Yumoto's VA):
Everyone! Have you been well?
Already, 10 years have passed since we first yelled, "We are the heirs to the throne of love!" The days we spent with Yumoto, with the Defence Club! The days we conveyed love with the anime, the days we made merry with Nico livestreams, the days we shared the love with events!
Binan Koukou Chikyuu Boueibu...whatever it might be, it's nostalgic.
At this turning point called the 10 year anniversary, a decision has been made to make a movie! There'll be stuff like the Ikaho collab, stuff where I play Yumoto, but speaking of the new movie, I look forward to being able to meet everyone as Yumoto again! Again and again!
Yuichiro Umehara (En's VA):
I am amazed it has been 10 years.
I played this role in the early years of my [voice acting] debut, so I'm very happy to play him again. Chikyuu Boueibu is an unpredictable work, so at the present time, I don't know what kind of story will be depicted. However, I am looking forward to it.
I think it'll be a story where we'll certainly laugh and be emotionally moved, but because it is an unpredictable story, at the present time, I don't know what kind of story will be depicted.
I look forward to Love Making for the first time in a long time, but because it is an unpredictable story, at the present time, I don't know what kind of story will be depicted.
But it'll be a work you'll be able to enjoy - make no mistake.
Thank you in advance.
Kotaro Nishiyama (Atsushi's VA):
Congratulations on the 10 year anniversary!
Being able to celebrate the 10th anniversary like this makes me happy from the bottom of my heart. Then a decision was made to make a new movie. I'm really happy to be able to meet them [the LOVE! Defence Club] in animation again! Please look forward to their powered-up activities and unchanging vibe.
Well, let's go have chicken curry with added spinach! [1]
Yusuke Shirai (Io's VA):
Congratulations on Boueibu's 10th anniversary and Binan Koukou Chikyuu Boueibu ETERNAL LOVE! ＼(^o^)／ Boueibu is a work which I have a lot of emotional attachment to and it was a huge launchpad for me. I'm happy to play Io-kun again because this is the first time in a long time I've been able to do so. ( ´∀`) I want to meet them [the LOVE! Defence Club] again soon!!!
Toshiki Masuda (Ryuu's VA):
Congratulations on the 10 year anniversary and movie!
It's already been 10 years, huh? It's a work where we had this, that and a lot of experiences. If [Boueibu LOVE!] were to be made into a movie, I can't imagine what form it would take. I have high hopes for the fact our paths have successfully crossed again - Ryuu Zaou, who might have been changing in the work, and myself, who was changed by his influence in those days. I wish for this work to be one a lot of people can love, both for those who were cheering them [the LOVE! Defence Club] on in those days and those who've known them for the first time just now.
Mugihito (Wombat's VA):
Well well, after 6 years(?), Binan Koukou Chikyuu Boueibu has been revived.
Really, whatever will become of the existence of the mysterious outer space lifeform, Wombat...?
Battle Lovers, let's do our best-maccho!! [2]
[T/N 1: For the unaware, epinard = spinach in French.]
[T/N 2: Ganbattemaccho instead of the more standard ganbarimashou.]
The fact Boueibu, out of all shows, predicted deepfake, out of all things, both scares and amuses me.
When we think about that under a certain angle, Karurusu and Furanui are, in the end, two prince dictators fighting for the chance to rule and using a colony tributary as their arena. It's just that we're sold that Karurusu is the "good guy" because he has supposedly benevolent intentions, but whether he's naively believing everyone can be happy all the time or maliciously intending to control people's emotions, it doesn't matter: control is control all the same.
I wonder if the reason we haven't gotten a proper love/hk crossover team-up thing is because the hk are essentially a diet-conquest club.
Obviously they can team up eventually but first they gotta address the whole "our mascot wants to conquer earth, he just uses softer language" thing.
umatani shows formula;
-all boys cast. if there's a girl she's the only one and also pink, in typical boy's show fashion. -guys transform into a thing -x of the week paired with some kind of batshit plot that gets revealed later on -catchphrases that are repeated. often. -colourful character designs that are bordering on tacky- oh who i am i kidding. they are tacky. tacky as hell. -MASCOT CHARACTERS. always some kind of animal. -antagonist who is homosexually obsessed with one of the main characters. usually has 2 goons. -lots of gay shit (yes. besides the antagonist) -despite the gay shit there's always one guy who's obsessed with women. usually gets no bitches though. -giant age gaps. for some reason..? -Sugita Tomokazu and Yamamoto Kazutomi are there. most of the time.

Character - Gem - Placement - Cut - Weapon/Ability
