*Ahem*
If any more of this debate happens here, there will be a warning going out for each post.

So, let's get back to talking about how awesome Anguirus is, shall we?
Definitely one of my favorite monsters. I've always really liked his design. And his "never give up" attitude is quite admirable. FW Angy though...meh. Concept art was pretty good, finalized version wasn't what I had hoped for, the Thunderball was pretty neat but I didn't like how he didn't have any personality.

My favorite thing about Anguirus is his mouth which is full of jagged teeth

The worst what? Anguirus is certainly not the worst anything and is an extremely awesome monster. Way cooler than Rodan. He deserves higher popularity. He also has the BEST moveset in STE.

I will personally hunt down and slap the hell out of anyone who calls Anguirus 'the worst'. Angy is the man... er, monster.

I don't thinik anyone is. It's just a question of our opinions.

Mine is that Anguirus is great. His design is simple and aesthetic, and he is a tenacious fighter.

Um... I'm not even quite sure what the question is, much less how to respond to it...

But Anguirus is awesome, no matter how ya slice it.

Well...

Is Anguirus the worst in what context?

Is he the worst toothbrush? Maybe.

The worst television set? Possibly.

The worst choice in domestic livestock? Perhaps.

The worst kaiju...F**k NO!

By the way, he is the worst banana I've seen lately. So I figure he's not even "second" in that ranking.

^ Funny as hell!

Anguirus is one of my favorite monsters, and it always made me kind of sad that he always got his ass kicked. I mean, he did some damage in G vs Gigan and DAM, but only after he got whomped on for a while. I know it probably would have taken away some of Godzilla's image as the strongest monster, but I wanted to see him kick some ass once in a while.

Anguirus is a pretty awful in a beam fight, I'll give you that.

Is he an awful monster though? Not at all. That honor goes to one of these guys: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubYC5h0jmq0

Wish he was more popular in Japan. We might've seen more of him then.

You and me both. I love that spiky bastard, and I really want to see him in the Legendary series (as an ally).

Anguiras is cool. I like his personality (persevere and conquer). Sadly, I like Rodan better. Why? Well...his attack on New York City in GFW is just awesome!
