My love of kaiju and animation feel like two different things. I'm not at all tempted to compare the genres (if animation is even a genre - ?), and certainly not choose one over the other. They're separate things and I love both of 'em equally.


Agree, although I do love the Toho stuff a bit more. There may be two reasons for this, they captured by imagination first, and they've always been the underdog outside of Japan. But, they are two different aspects of the same thing -- analog visual effects.

August, any chance you posting this comic? I (and many others, I bet) would love to see it.


I would love to, but I am afraid that I don't have a working scanner right now. :(
