Honestly ー can go to hell, it's the only issue I've got with reading tests

Yeah, they did what they always do and elevated something they adopted because they are divorced from the rules that structured it elsewhere.

They just need to add gingerbread skyscrapers getting destroyed

Or more likely they understood the rules but said fuck it and made it more fun

Figure it out?!

I think they nailed it!

DJKJuicy@sh.itjust.works · 51 pts · 1y

Japan ~~is still trying to figure out~~ has figured out Christmas.

aeronmelon@lemmy.world · 45 pts · 1y

Making it look like America is still trying to figure out Christmas.

mechoman444@lemmy.world · 36 pts · 1y

Looks like they figured it out pretty good.

I think they are closer to the mark than we are in North America

I'd love to have a Godzilla in my living room than a plain old Christmas tree

I ride motorcycle and I've lobbied my wife for years to just bring in my bike and display it all winter long and even decorate it like a Christmas tree.

Sad to see so many places opting for artificial Godzillas these days

pyre@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 1y

it's understandable; they are probably being environmentally conscious and trying to avoid giving the ax to >!the population with another nuclear bomb!<

FlyingSquid@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 1y

Oh and I suppose you think everyone should go out and kill their own Godzilla for Christmas like in the old days? Some of us don't have time for that sort of thing you know!

Kaiju > Jesus.

At least Kaiju are real.

FlyingSquid@lemmy.world · 11 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Kaiju are responsible for far fewer mass casualties in the last 2000 years.

In 2025 I'm celebrating Kaijmass.

x4740N@lemm.ee · 17 pts · 1y

No they've got it figured out

RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world · 16 pts · 1y

Figure it out? Looks like a christmas win to me…

dogsoahC@lemm.ee · 16 pts · 1y

Maybe we are the one still trying?

HexadecimalSky@lemmy.world · 16 pts · 1y (2 replies)

I mean Christmas was originally about bringing in forest spirits (believed to live in evergreens) to protect your home from evil spirits (probably bugs), so, godzilla is pretty on point

x4740N@lemm.ee · 1 pts · 1y (1 reply)

Pretty sure christains stole winter solstice from the Pagans and changed it

HexadecimalSky@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 1y

what I described was a pagan tradition, which was "adopted" by, iirc, the catholic church so pagans could convert and still celebrate thier traditions. I don't remember all the winter solictice traditions but I am sure other traditions or holidays have been added to the amalgam over the centuries, like, the whole deal with Santa.

Japan is lightyears ahead of us when it comes to Christmas.

HawlSera@lemm.ee · 13 pts · 1y (2 replies)

It's funny.

If this was a gag scene in a comedy movie, it'd be shunned for being Asiaphobic and racist.

But this is real life Japan

RagingRobot@lemmy.world · 14 pts · 1y

Looks bad ass to me. I would rather have that than a boring old tree shaped tree

x4740N@lemm.ee · 7 pts · 1y

Because it depends on a magical thing called context

Humour is also subjective and you can do it without being an asshole

Understanding the people and the culture can help with that
