After seeing the new Gamera trailer I started thinking about kaiju and some of the less well known among them. Please note they may be some spoilers. The first is actually a Showa Era Toho movie Dogora the Space Monster (1964) Dogora first appeared in space, feeding on radiation. It destroyed a television satellite, causing it to mutate. It came to Earth seeking carbon to feed upon and began eating diamonds and other jewels. Dogora has only made one appearance outside this movie in an episode of the Godzilla Island tv series which is a shame because it is easily the most beautiful and eerie of the classic Toho monsters. Next we have Gezora the cuttlefish,…

I think we can officially say that the Fourth Age of Monsters is well and truly here. Its a good time to be a Kaiju fan.

Ok this is a little something for any one piece fans on the site. So which Devil Fruit would you pick? For me it would have to be Wapol's Baku Baku/Munch Munch Fruit. While it doesn't seem that impressive in the series this is mainly due to its user being a moron. Its actually has a lot of potential. The primary power of the fruit is that it lets you eat anything. You also gain the ability cartoonishly expand your mouth. Then you can incorporate what you have eaten into your body to increase your physical attributes, size or give yourself new abilities. For example if you eat metal you can make you body more durable or if you eat a cannon you can turn your ar…

I don't know what's wrong with me. I've been MIA with anything pertaining to anime for a long time. Almost since last Feb. I feel like anime just doesn't cut it anymore and I hate it. I want my passion back. I've tried various new/short animes but nothings been keeping my interest. I think I need a good fantasy adventure action anime. Something like Yu Yu Hakusho, InuYasha or Bleach. I don't know. I haven't been able to find anything. Any suggestions?

Looks to be VF-31 "Sigfried" vs Sv-26 "Draken III" with a group of idols this time. Though, apparently it was said that despite the VF-31's all being a different color and such, and the promo images have the idols with them, that the Idols are not piloting them.

I'm excited. Are you?

I thought I would share the 2 pics below. They are the first manga appearances of Dragonball from Shonen Jump in 1984 and Maziinger Z from Shonen Jump in 1972. Just cool! What others do you know of? Throw some pics and educate the masses!

Soooo as some of you know, growing up as a child Godzilla was a hero of mine. I loved him, whereas I literally had night terrors of King Kong up until I was 14. I sometimes had dreams of Godzilla protecting me from him though. This was due to the old classic Godzilla vs King Kong. Well, now they're rebooting it, with the new Godzilla flicks. Check out the article. https://www.yahoo.com/movies/godzilla-vs-kong-set-for-2020-214457108.html

Especially Spawn.

Ok so whos you favorite? For me is Tremor from Mortal Kombat X

So. It's obvious that after the Elder Scrolls 5: Skyim, there will be an extended wait on the next game. I have no idea why. It'd be nice if there was one coming out very soon for the PS4.

How did you get into anime and what was the first anime you watched? When I got into anime, honestly the first anime I ever watched was Dragon Ball Z. I first watched it on Cartoon Network when I was 12 years old. I didn't really get into anime until I was 14. But I started out as a big DBZ fan and than watched the Guyver OVA a little later on.

This could be interesting. Check out the trailer.

Looks pretty good. Thoughts?

Ok so the card game Dragon Ball Heroes has done a lot of what ifs.... Ok we have had the likes of Baby Janemba. And Golden Oozaru and SS4 Broly We now even have SS4 Gohan But their latest character is......well is a first. Let me introduce Super 17 - Android 18 Absorbed - The first male/female fusion as well as the first sibling fusion.

Battle Angel Alita is really bad ass. Anyone heard of it?

Has anyone seen John Wick? I think its one of Keanu Reeve's greatest movies since Point Break and The Matrix trilogy. Its a really good movie about this guy out for some justified revenge against the Russian mob!

Mobile Suit Gundam - Iron-Blooded Orphans episode 1 is out! Thoughts? I thought it was a very good opening episode. A bit too exposition heavy... But That is kind of welcome after the train wreck that was G-Reco's opening episode. Also from what I've seen of the MS design for the series, I am also quite happy that I am liking quite a few of them. So far so good!

Has anyone ever watched Elfen Lied? Red hair girl named Lucy who is psychic and has horns on her head? Kills people for fun? This is probably one of the most violent anime shows I've ever seen with tons of nudity. Its a fun watch. Just wondering if anyone else has watched it.

Anyone played it? Its probably one of the best RPG's by Namco since the Xenosaga trilogy. Great fantasy battles and fun exploration. Milla Maxwell would probably have to be my favorite. She's a very unique tough character. She really is the reason that made me like the game. If you like Final Fantasy and other JRPG's. This might just be the game for you. Plus the graphics are really good. I felt like I was playing an anime show.

Which single video game have you racked up the most hours on? For me. It has been Final Fantasy X, Skyrim, Oblivion, Fallout 3 and Diablo 3. Great games!

only in Japan

Looks pretty good for a foreign film. Thoughts on this guys?
