Giant jelly fish are “bigger than sumo wrestlers”
This news story is about Japan, so the size of the jelly fish must be explained in a Japan-related way:
The report seems to blame global warming, but there is also mention of Chinese pollution as a possible cause of the plague of giant jellyfish. (A similar theory was reported in a previously-posted Japanese news video)

The Japanese version of Wikipedia entry for Nomura’s jellyfish mentions on eutrophication rather than pollution of the Yellow sea, a place for jellyfish’s spawning, as one of possible reasons for this issue. Additional possible reasons listed there are, the destruction of the environment along Japanese shores and imbalance of the eco-system induced by excessive fishing. All of them are still mere hypothesis. Bigger than sumo wrestlers.

Would it be “Bigger than a barrel of beer” for Germany and “Bigger than a whopper” in the US?

Yeah! Here is my playground!
James, I found various other important facts: They are
1. whiter than geisha faces
2. sharper than samurai swords
3. tastier than sushi rolls
4. more poisonous than ninja weapons
5. smaller than fuji yama
Today, I saw gingkoes, their leaves gave a quite nice contrast with a clear autumn sky. Not to mention that they are yellower than my skin. This news story is about Japan, so the color of the gingko leaf must be explained in a Japan-related way.
