All right, more Fun-Fun Monster Sharing Time! Or whatever the heck I call these.
Unlike the past ones I've shared--those being Yuuengaku and Akuroghan--this one is fairly simple and rather straight forward.
Simply put, Kaereon (from the Japanese words カエル (kaeru) and カメレオン (kamereon), meaning 'frog' and 'chameleon' respectively) is an inhabitant of a world that Yuuengaku eventually lands on (restoring her water supply for space travel) and is a bit of a nuisance. Honestly, from that premise, I might have her grown fond of Kaereon and inadvertently becomes an ally... Though the specifics of their chemistry and how that ties into the over-arching story, that's currently still in development.
Even in terms of his background, Kaereon is pretty tame. Kaereon was formerly Ghondor, a creation I made roughly 10 years ago, who went through a drastic design overhaul (thank you, BigJohnnyCool!). Even the original Ghondor's backstory I don't recall it being anything that special; just a monster found in ice. Kaereon won't have the ice thing going, but he's just a natural monster of nature... Though again, a lot of things can change.
Kaereon's prototype, Ghondor. Can you see the design influences / similarities? Drawn by yours truly... About a decade ago.
Not a long one, but they don't need to be. Just here to showcase some cool art by some cool people; and to that extent, showing off an ever expanding universe.

How the Shin Universe Connects Together (Theory)
Hey! So I'm alive for one. Been super-duper busy on the KWC front (oh shoot, I need to update on banners, don't I...?), hence why I haven't been on here as often as I should. And in general, dA hasn't been as appealing to be on as it used to be. But the existential dread of a dead website aside, I just wanted to throw this out there. To start off, we know that the movies of the Shin Japan Heroes Universe are all disconnected anthology films that are really only connected by being a modernized reinvention of classic properties and being helmed by a generally consistent team of people (most notable in this case is Hideaki Anno, though I feel Shinji Higuchi deserves equal recognition). Maybe super cheeky references here and there, but let's speculate with the what-ifs--what if the SJHU films were a singular continuity? How would they work? What I'm going to present is very much oversimplified--but since it's not going to come down to the details, since that would require a much greater

KWC Awards/Survey and Happy Holidays!
Wow, so it's been a hot minute! First off, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Here's hoping 2021 will be a far better year than 2020 was. Secondly, the KWC Awards/Survey is here for those that read the KWC! So by all accounts, pitch your vote! https://www.tohokingdom.com/blog/2020-kwc-awards-and-feedback-surveys/ 'Till then, everyone!

Yamatai Kingdom - 1st Appearance of Bagan
Well, first update I've made in a while... And one using the new Eclipse format. Happy Every Holiday Ever That I Missed Out On. :P That's the full title. Nevertheless, I *really* wanted to share this article posted on TK about Bagan's 1st appearance--crazy to believe he wasn't even meant to be a Godzilla monster! https://www.tohokingdom.com/cutting_room/yamatai_kingdom.html I'm flabbergasted at the idea, but so much of it makes sense when you think about it. Why would a magical, shapeshifting monster be Godzilla's 1st opponent for a reboot series? He was a carryover from a lost film. Why would Bagan even be considered for the unmade Yamato Takeru sequel? Because Yamatai Kingdom was meant to expand on The Three Treasures, which debuts Toho's Orochi. So much of this adds up and leaves me speechless. It's wonderful when a monster--let alone one that was planned for movies and never saw the light of day--is able to bring new surprises to the table. It's nuts. Nevertheless, y'all have
