Awesome upload of a Total Bada**, character!!! Plus, it is Awesome to find out that the actor who fought Bruce Lee, in Fist of Fury, is the Daimajin actor!!! Awesome Performance!!! And, a Awesome Channel!!!
Great review! As for the elemental theme, given there were plans for a scrapped fourth movie in the series meant to be released in 1967 I assume that the fourth movies element would have been fire. Which was a huge shame we never got to see that if that was even up for consideration all because the third film bombed in Japan.
I'm glad you like this trilogy! Personally I consider it some of my favorite kaiju films, with the first film being my pick for best kaiju film of all time
I was surprised that Daiei went bankrupt even with their original Zatoichi series lasting 28 movies. I guess not even Zatoichi could win against the bankruptcy of Daiei, not even with Gamera's help.
My only disagreement is the 3rd film being good. I could not stand those kids at all but... its been awhile since Ive seen it so might need to rewatch it. And equally happy to see someone talk about Daimajin. Such a good toku series.
I feel like the trilogy can be comedically summarized as:
Daimajin: "Does Daimajin have to crush some bitches?!"
Cannot wait to hear your thoughts on these three films
Well done! Glad I picked up the BluRay of these classics when it was still available.

I never knew these existed- cool :-) Just watched the series and I see what you mean about the pop 0_o
Since this video, Daimajin made another comeback attempt, guest-starring in a sequel to _Great Yokai War_
I really hope we get a new Daimajin movie in the future. It's a solid trilogy.
so this is where genndy tartakovsy got the inspiration for the giant stone samurai
Here to learn about the films after Arrow announced there new box set for July! Great video definitely going to pick up the set.

Great video dude!
Great video!
After witnessing the third film, it is scary seeing Daiei go down the red brick road with killing off a child character.
