b'Hello, kaiju lovers!\\nThe \\u201cDaimajin Days\\u201d come to a close with Joe and Joy Metter returning to discuss\\xa0Daimajin Strikes Again. The final film of the\\xa0Daimajin\\xa0trilogy, while it has the same basic set-up with an evil lord oppressing the people, focuses on four boys who set out to rescue their commoner fathers and brothers from slavery. The Metters\\u2019 dogs Teddy Kong and Bitzilla make more cameos as they and Nathan make frequent comparisons between this film and\\xa0Lord of the Rings,\\xa0Naruto, and even\\xa0X-Men! All the while MIFV\\u2019s intrepid producer, Jimmy From NASA, continues to antagonize Joy\\u2014which comes to a head in an epic post-credit scene!\\nToday\\u2019s Toku Topic builds on the previous one by discussing kami (Japanese spirits and gods).\\nWe\\u2019d like to give a shout-out to our Patreon patrons Travis Alexander and Michael Hamilton (co-hosts of\\xa0Kaiju Weekly); Danny DiManna (author/creator of the\\xa0Godzilla Novelization Project); Eli Harris (elizilla13); Chris Cooke (host of\\xa0One Cross Radio), and Bex from\\xa0Redeemed Otaku!
