A high quality video of the ceremony celebrating the completion of Kobe’s life-sized Gigantor (Tetsujin 28-go):

As noted in an earlier post, the statue can be seen next to Shin-Nagata Station [Access Map].

Hehehe, I hope this will not attract too many pedofiles.
If you know what this means, you are into Japanese pop/underground culture too much.

Anyway, if other major cities follow this trend, I like to see Godzilla, Maguma Taishi(The Space Giants) or Daimajin next.

What is a pedofile?

Ooops, “pedophile” that is.
And I really laughed at the entry of Urban Dictionary,
which said “a person who really, really needs to learn how to spell”
That is so true about me!
Anani Mouse, you impressed me.
If you were not born & grew up in Japan and know what that line means, I might walk upside down.

Wish we could build giant robots in the States.

But….I think we would just wind up with 50 ft tall C-3PO’s
