Sure, happy to help! I read those books endlessly as a kid and it's nice to see their associated pages grow.
that must've been fun being able to see them come out during the 90s. idk why but something about those snakes intrigued me enough to want to finish their pages (which I also plan to do for sasori), and I plan to finish yellowback sometime this week. all that's left is space monster for him
I actually got the last three Ciencin books at a thrift store around 2004 (and didn't get my hands on the first one until I was in college). Anyways, good show!
oh wow lucky, crazy to think that that's still before by time. honestly I would have loved for the Ciencin books to continue, they were like a mash of heisei and showa which is really charming to me. a shame a certain blockbuster bombed and caused it to be stopped prematurely (well that's the reason for the Cerasini book being canned but I think its safe to assume it would apply to a potential Ciencin sequel to space monster)
I'm sure I would've enjoyed further installments, but I thought Space Monster was a fine finale. Still one of my favorite depictions of Ghidorah (not to mention Monster Island and its bickering inhabitants).
oh space monster was a good way to end it, I don't disagree there. I just love the reinterpretations of the kaiju in the series, treating them more as characters than the Cerasini books did. Part of why I wish it got another novel is the fact that it was willing to make its own creations as well as use some of the lower scale kaiju as its front runners (ie Kamacuras and Varan). Ghidorah being mostly based on his showa incarnation is great too because ever since the 2010s it's been nothing but heisei ghidorah. Even if he was commanded by the Meteor crystal thing in Space Monster, he was at least allowed to have personality like in his debut, it's like a mix of three-headed monster and astro-monster
finished making it consistent
