Honestly the least believable part of this. Toho only gives a shit about money so why would they keep using him when clearly keeping him around and having to cover up multiple incidents is costing them more than just making another suit lol. Plus them having to pay the government to keep them quiet.

[@yuribumagnygoncalvessampai7560]

In the description of the 7 updates video it implies that they are being forced by the japanese goverment to keep it alive and use the money they make from the movies to finance something, but we dont know why

[@redherringoffshoot2341]

the guy in the suit aka Goji lost his family during the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings, and he caught radiation 2nd hand as a result likely being around the area where they happened, hence why not only did he unintentionally fuse into the suit while not being in a rational state of mind, but it's also why he has such a distinct hatred towards Americans

[@higadograso1629]

Goji in this series seems very inspired by Shin Godzilla. The constant evolution and mutation is obvious, but the red vomit might have come from a deleted scene from that movie. Maybe the eyeball that was found could be a reference to another deleted scene where parts of Godzilla's flesh that were blown off grow eyes.

This is the issue with the production though: if an unfiction or analog horror series is targeted to a fandom or group, it shouldent alienate the biggest fans of that fandom. I also just... Cant take it seriously. It reads like a poor creepypasta, personally. Its skilled work for a first time production, but feels misguided and living in the shadow of other works.

[@PossiblySimple]

This is just a partial theory, but I don’t think Goji just randomly vomited blood out into the wood. I think he ejected himself from the suit to escape the grasp of Toho after being disillusioned from working with Americans and their acceptance to do so. Especially from how they limit him from creating more suit monsters. The eyeball is pretty interesting, since it was already stated that his body is just fused with the suit. Either the pool of blood is another entity in gestation, or TMINTS has left the constraints to become the America destroying size the Japanese Government wants him to be.

This is my first time watching one of your videos, so I don't know how you usually go about with the sound balancing. But in the segments where it's just you speaking on camera with a voice effect to make yourself sound a little more like an old VHS, it's significantly quieter, and the parts where you're simply voicing over is about in between and makes it difficult to get immersed in the video (especially during the loud stings of the story you're covering). Otherwise, this is a really interesting story, and I'm thankful for being introduced to it.
