From what I heard, there is a perfectly good reason why Daiei cast a caucasian child in the latter half of the series. AIP made a deal to help finance the movies in exchange for exclusive distribution rights for American television. The only stipulation was that there had to be a caucaisian child cast along with the Japanese child for all the movies. Because they thought kids would relate to an caucaisian child more or something. Which was BS as I watched shows like The Space Giants and Ultraman growing up with all Japanese casts and I had no problem relating to the kids in those shows.

War of the Monsters, the American cut of Gamera vs. Barugon, is 11 minutes shorter than the Japanese cut, and I think it's better for it. The pacing is a lot better. No matter which cut it is though, I love Gamera vs. Barugon, and it's easily my favorite one from the showa era.

6:26 i mean it’s a good thing that shehio Tanaka directed the sequel because I think he didn’t like the idea that gamera was a good guy for no reason in the first film and he litterly turned this sequel into a serious film and make him(gamera) natural he’s not the friend of the children in this movie he just a natural kaiju on both sides and I love it I mean I love the first film but I don’t like the scenes with toshio because he’s annoying and had nothing to do with the plot about plan z he just doesn’t care about human rights and I wish he wasn’t in the movie at all.

kinda pointless for the first film to end with Gamera being sent into space only for the second to have him immediately be broken out and back on Earth. Could have been interesting if Barugon caused so much destruction the humans went into space to get Gamera back and help them defeat Barugon

I personally think Gamera vs. Zigra was the worst and most boring Gamera film, it's no wonder you fell asleep during that one. Say what you will about Super Monster, but at least that one had a lot of monster battles in it. Still hate Super Monster too, but hate Zigra even more.

None of the cast are forgettable that's just one opinion of one person .because every time I see this movie I say to myself wow this is very nostalgic. Since Gamera is a poor mans. Godzilla they wanted the movie to be different from the king of the monsters Godzilla. This is why inn the opening you see the monster .They were competing against. Godzilla movies. Too And they did an okey job . At that. You have to understand what the film makers wanted to do with a movie .and the times.

I find it kinda odd that Gamera's 1st film is in black and white when it was around the time Toho had colorful Godzilla movies. I'm guessing Daiei had to copy the original Godzilla style to a T with the black and white. Edit: Fun fact, the actor in the Gamera suit is Teruo Aragaki, the same suit actor who portrayed monsters in the Ultraman series and Rodan in Destroy All Monsters.

The thing that gets me about Gamera is that he gets *mortally wounded* in almost every single one of his encounters, and yet he comes back over and over and over again. That last monster Viras plunges an enormous bomb-shaped b*tt-plug into his abdomen, stabbing him repeatedly, turning his eternal organs into mush, but he simply shakes it off and flies him up into the upper atmosphere where Viras freezes, as though he hoped that would happen all along. Gyaos shoots his beam repeatedly into Gamera's skull, turning his brain AND internal organs into mush, but that doesn't faze him much either. Even as a kid when I watched these I said, there is NO WAY any creature comes back after his vital organs have been shredded.

I thought that the reason was that the army got Barugon with artificial rain, which nullified his freezing vapor which was why he couldn't use it on Gamera a second time.
