There's another one on Beacon Street, as you cross over the highway. I used to pass it every day on my way home from classes.

There are many, many Kaiju stickers all over the Boston area. Honestly, I get surprised if I don't see any around at this point.

[quote=DarkMagicalKnight]what does Kaiju mean??? [/quote]

I believe, in my not so 'accurate' japanease skills, it means "Giant Monster" or something similar. It orginally applied to such movies as Godzilla and such.
Now, all of those Kaiju have a nice league to play in, since Tokyo kept geting upset having to rebuild every few weeks.

Now if only we could do something about the Tokyo Tower. >shrug<

I didn't like KAiju all that much honestly.
However the characters that roamed around all weekend were entertaining and I'm greatful that kaiju brought more publicity to the con! :3

Because next year we need Robot-Oil-Wrestling, Electroucution Style. That would be an

You know whats wicked cool? If you play one of the Grand Theft Auto's *I think its Vice City* but not the xbox version, its only in the PS2 one, there is a certain building you look up at and its got a Dr. Cube on it. I forget exactly where, since my brother showed me, but Rockstar is a backer for Kaiju.

Kaiju means 'mysterious monster' and I personally LOVED Kaiju big battle. Its such a shame they so rarely perform here. They did originate here though so its not that surprising that their stickers are all over the place. Oh and to those of you bashing the great Cube. *raspberry* Potatoe picked the right side and you all know it. You ingrates don't even realize that Cube saved the planet. He should rule the world and I for one would give it to him personally had I the power. Besides, That stupid banana knew what he was getting into. Its his own fault he died. }:|

I saw some of the Pocky fight, but I missed out on the potato's betrayal. I did give the surviving plantain my condolences on Saturday (though Cube is STILL the man!)

Must people forget Cube made Silver Potatoe who he is. Handed him titles. This was a long time coming.

Did you pat it, or were you one of the ones who tried to rip it off? haha. Anyway.. I liked Kaiju at AB more. I wish they'd come back, but probably not... I wanted a big pocky stick.

You know, Dr. Cube is really someone I can get behind... with a machette. HA-HA-HA-HA!

Oh yeah, what was the monster who came to the opening ceremony?

By the way, on G-4, they showed the battle between Silver Potato and some... I think it was Uchuchu the Space Bug, and Dr. Cube's minions cart off Silver Potato in the middle of the match. I think that was when ole Silver was brainwashed or converted or basically changed sides. It would explain why Dr. Cube supported Silver Potato towards the end of the match.

My favorite part of Kaiju... when I went off to the far side from the doors of the room. Started breaking it down in old school dance moves. Suddenly, I had inspired a mini-mosh pre-show. Geez that was exciting. Although when some of us started taking our shirts off it was mildly disturbing.

My friends and I were first in line at Kaiju. Security was so nice =), they held our places while my friends and I went to go get food from Dunkin' Donuts. We were sooooo hungry!

Kaiju was killer though <3

It was too loud for me .. and my boyfriend was all ready deafened in one ear by a screaming fangirl some couple of years ago (I wish I was kidding. Ear bleeding and everything. I'm surprised he didn't slap a lawsuit on the girl)..

Plus, despite all of his friends LOVING it, we just found it ... TOO nerdy. Like, we appreciate anime, monsters, robots, all that, but it was just an all-new level we just didn't comprehend.

However, I must give my props to Dr. Cube. Apparently he made some kid cry and I find that absolutely hilarious.
