Why Godzilla is awesome.
There are a number of supposedly uniquely "American" character archetypes who nonetheless have rough equivalents of sorts in Japanese culture, but as far as I can tell (and I lived in Japan for a few years) the "redneck" is not one of them.
Except for Godzilla.
You know THAT guy? That ONE guy on your street, who has the "NO TRESPASSERS" sign in his front lawn, right next to the pickup truck on blocks? That's Godzilla. He's the guy who's homicidally possessive of what he regards as his property (ie. ALL OF FUCKING JAPAN), at the same time that he treats his own property like shit. He's the guy who shits where he eats, and then freaks the hell out whenever anyone tries to get him to stop treating his own fucking yard like a goddamn garbage dump.
See those stubby little arms? Those are worth about jack fuck-all in a fight, which is why he always uses his tail and his nuclear breath for his finishing moves. Those stumpy arms are vestigial appendages, fit only for holding oversized versions of a can of brew in one hand and a scotch-taped smoke in the other. See that sagging beer gut, and those thick-ass thunder-thighs? That's the kind of physique that wife-beater shirts and sweatpants were MADE for. Couple this all with his slow, loping gait, and he's only a thinning mullet and a trailer park away from being that middle-aged guy who wakes up at the crack of noon with a hangover pissed off because some young dumb punk kids are blaring Sabbath outside his window, and he hauls his bleary-eyed ass out of bed to beat them the fuck down because he doesn't want them on their skateboards on HIS sidewalk. Take a second look at all of Godzilla's fights with other monsters - this describes EVERY FUCKING FIGHT GODZILLA HAS EVER HAD.
