Sunday Evening Videos: Kaiju Big Battel

KaijuPartyPosterFlatHere’s what you need to know: Kaiju Big Battel combines the majesty and power of giant city-destroying Kaiju monsters (like Godzilla) with the drama and energy of professional wrestling. Some people see it as a powerful analog to the state of international relations and economic diplomacy in a post nuclear world. Other people see it as a bunch of goofballs wrestling while wearing rubber monster suits.

The evidence is in tonight’s videos. You be the judge.
