->This is going to be seriously TL;DR so you guys were warned. Guy in the TV series is a walking corpse. He died during the EI-01 incident. He was brought back by his father through the power of SCIENCE! but it wasn't really a true resurrection. Most of his body is gone. A head, a face, a few vital organs, the rest is cold metal. And he knows it. His old life is gone, the only thing he has left is the protection of the living. But the problem is those Guy left behind. Mikoto sees her old love right there, and wants to be taken into his arms, but he can't. He's not a living human anymore. He's dead. Mikoto should give up on him, move on, find someone living. Guy cares for her, and protects her, but he can't love her. Not any more. So Mikoto pines for a dead man, like a widow who can't accept her loss.\\\
In the meantime, Guy fights to protect the living, being the most alive when in the heat of battle. But even then, there is the irony, the reminder of the inhuman thing he has become. His opponents are cyborgs, ordinary humans turned into the mechanical Zonders. And so even as he fights them, he fights FOR them. His victory will return them to normal. However, he himself can never be returned to his normal life. No amount of G-Stone energy, not even Mamoru's powers can restore him. So he fights, always for others, never for himself. Always denying his true desires, for they are the lost wishes of a dead man.\\\
Eventually he triumphs, first against EI-01, then the ancient frighting Primevals themselves. His cyborg shell bruised, battered, and the giant machine that is his second body is at the brink of ruin. His loyal AI companions are in the same state of disrepair. They have their victory, but it was hard fought.\\\
And then, in the calm after the storm, they discover it was merely the eye of the storm. The Zonders live. Mikoto has become the enemy. The seed in her body has awakened, and she has become the next generation of the primevals legacy. This new entity is immune G-Stone energy. The old weakness no longer works, Mamoru's magic can't restore her. And so, once more, Guy goes into battle, this time against the remains of the woman who loved him, she too is now a mechanical corpse that can no longer be human.\\\
His friends, the Braves, lend their AI to the failing [=GaoMachines=], and they go into the fray. The Zonuda is frightening. It assimilates all that it touches. All of GGG's trumpcards are useless. So they are discarded, and GGG fights with tooth and claw. So Guy shreds the Zonuda down, till only the core remains. Mamoru is unconscious, but it does not matter. His powers are useless, this thing was created to evolve beyond the ability of the ultimate anti-Zonder weapon.\\\
The core, the last remnants of Mikoto's consciousness, pleads, "kill me, Guy." It is the only way. Mikoto can't be saved, she can only be destroyed. To save the city, the world, and the galaxy itself, she must die. Guy has fought this entire time only for others, he just needs to make one last sacrifice for the sake of the world.\\\
He doesn't. He embraces his love. He accepts her love and gives his in return. And then instead of his trademark shouts, he answers with a whisper; "If you die, I die with you." He accepts his own death finally, but only if it with the woman he loves. He finally has the courage to confess, to accept his own love, the love he denied so long. That was his greatest moment of courage. And in the presence of an artifact that changes courage into miracles, it's enough. His love, his greatest courage does the impossible. He and Mikoto can never be human again, so they are transfigured into beings greater than human. Evoluders. His flesh is restored, and can finally hold Mikoto in his arms once more. That was the miracle brought by courage.\\\

->For many years we've been trying, in our own bumbling way, to illustrate that love is a far greater force, a far greater power than hate. Now we don't mean you're expected to go around like a pirouetting Pollyanna, tossing posies at everyone who passes by, but we do want to make a point. Let's consider three men: Buddha, Christ, and Moses...men of peace, whose thoughts and deeds have influenced countless millions throughout the ages, and whose presence still is felt in every corner of the earth. Buddha, Christ, and Moses...men of good will, men of tolerance, and especially men of love. Now, consider the practitioners of hate who have sullied the pages of history. Who still venerates their words? Where is homage still paid to their memory? What banners still are raised to their cause? The power of love and the power of hate. Which is most truly enduring? When you tend to despair...let the answer sustain you.
