[edit] Mammra
Are you sure that Mammra is a takeoff of Mothra and not a takeoff of Gamera?
I had always assumed Mammra was a parody of Mothra because they were similar (both are ancient Kaijuu who protect the inhabitants of a special island and have to be summoned in some way), but he's definitley not based on Gamera. But now that you mention it, a lot of the Kaijuu from those old movies had names like that: Moth-ra, Game-ra (game is similar to kame, the JP word for "turtle"), Mini-ra, Eib-ra (ebi means shirmp), and son. And Mammra (or Manmora) is the same but with manmo from manmosu (mammoth). I still think he's a pardoy of Mothra, though. Seigi Choujin 16:00, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Unknown Monsters
Any idea on the following guys? Image:KinnMonster09.jpgImage:KinnMonster04.jpg
The King Ghidorah looking guy is just Kinniku-Daiou doing a gag (I believe he was mad at Kinnikuman for not being upset enough about not being invited to the Choujin Olympics), he's not worth mentioning. The green dude is the first Kaijuu brought out for Kaijuu Lifting during the Choujin Olympics, he's only worth mentioning because he broke free and almost ate Nakano-san before being shot by one of the guards (prob'ly Gobugari in the anime).
