GAMERA IS BACK, BABY!
Netflix has really been serving the kaiju content, first with Godzilla Singular Point and then Kong: Skull Island and now this. It's great to see the big turtle boy finally getting his much deserved revival after Gamera The Brave kind of fell flat (which was a shame, since I personally loved the idea of him being a child's pet that grew into a giant, which would explain his benevolence and affection to humans much in the way that Zilla Jr. from Godzilla: The Series became a heroic kaiju after imprinting on Nick Tatoupolos as a human surrogate parent.) He does seem to retain his two defining traits in Rebirth, his gentleness to humans--and his sheer merciless brutality to the evil monsters who would seek them harm.
The villains here too are back! They all look like faithful yet more-serious reimaginings of the entire Showa roster. Though one in particular kinda bothers me...Zigra.
He looks like an aquatic Gyaos now.

So I tried experimenting on a concept for a more Showa-faithful Zigra, going for the more goblin shark-esque look. Rebirth's sort of pterosaur-like appearance was kind of interesting so I tried preserving some of those features, along with legs inspired by early tetrapods and lobefin fish as a reference to his randomly growing legs in the original Gamera vs. Zigra and gave him an upright, somewhat penguin-like stance since he was quite cumbersome on land in the original, though not helplessly so.
And of course, Rebirth's rogues gallery is conspicuously missing one particular kaiju...
Tumblr media
None other than Gamera's first-ever foe, Barugon!
He seems to be based on a Jackson's chameleon (or perhaps a horned agama), so giving him more explicitly chameleon-like traits is a pretty obvious choice, most notably the eyes (Showa Barugon had weird eyes that blink sideways) and giving him the fixed skin-covered telescope-like eyes of a chameleon fits him quite well. Then of course are his dorsal spines: here I've made them glassy and transparent to act as prisms, with each row of spines producing a different color that then is focused into a single point that then explodes into a firework-like meteor shower of destruction.

So the tagline for the new Gamera Rebirth anime is “Gamera vs. 5 Kaiju”, with a poster showing countless Gyaos flying around, certainly more than five. The latest poster also showed Jiger. This most likely means that A) Gyaos doesn’t count as one of the five kaiju (already got plenty of appearences anyway) and B) the 5 are going to be reimaginings of the other Showa foes (Barugon, Viras, Guiron, Jiger and Zigra).
Jiger is my favorite but I think I’m the most exited to see Guiron. While the Gyaos have been portrayed as Gamera’s archnemesis in a “gotta get rid of them or we are all doomed” kind of way (like Ellen Ripley vs. the aliens), Guiron imo is the foe that feels the most like Gamera’s equal. Many have interpreted him as “the” Gamera equivalent of his own planet (he even fights his own species of Gyaos!).
Will Guiron finally live up to his potential as Gamera’s rival? Does Barugon get first-foe-privileges? Only time will tell.

There is very little Gamera in this Gamera movie, but there's an awful lot of hydrophobic rainbow snow chameleon
