    Paul Bunyan? No. Not a monster. Just a man.

    Babe, his giant blue ox, however: totally a Kaiju.

    The literal translation/definition of “Kaiju” is “strange beast.” Which is why giant humans don’t qualify.

      There’s counter evidence that humans can actually achieve a Beast Mode, though.

      Are you saying Paul Bunyan is not a beast? And a strangely large one at that?

        He’s a strangely large normal fellow.

          He’s just a normal human who ate all his vegetables when he was a growing boy.

        I’ve been watching so much Game Grumps recently, there’s a good chance that’s where I subliminally obtained this knowledge.

          I stopped watching for a while, but then Zelda came out and they’re a steady habit again

            Are they back in decent form at all? Me and my partner stopped watching a long time ago due to the downward spiral of their content quality and editing. It just became more of “how many times can we roll our eyes over the course of a video” than anything else.

            Which sucks because our mutual enjoyment of them (among other things) was one of the things that brought us together.

            (For reference, I started watching around 2012, her around 2016, and we stopped watching somewhere in 2019)

              Watch the tears of the kingdom series and see, I got pretty tired of their schtick for a while before that came out
