Hi all, Kevin here. The blog has gone sadly neglected for the past few months, for which I apologize; the stressful current state of world events has certainly taken its toll.
However, I have not been completely off the radar! Here are a few activities you might have missed:
- First of all, Alex of Control All Monsters and I sat down to recreate our G-Fest panel from last year on the Gamera trilogy, in time for the Arrow Gamera set.
- Amanda and I were also on Kaiju Transmissions to talk about the Ultra Q movie and what a translation nightmare it posed to fansubbers for decades. I also joined them (along with Justin) to talk about Masaaki Yuasa’s new Netflix series Japan Sinks 2020. Again, if you’re not subscribed to them, I’d encourage doing so.

- This weekend is Kaiju Masterclass, the year’s second online convention for giant monsters. The guest list is jaw-dropping for a first-time convention (or any convention), so I’m quite honored to have three panels over the course of the three days: a solo deal on Toho Tokusatsu on Television, one with Matt Parmley and Stan Hyde on the 1970 Osaka Expo, and a 25th anniversary panel on Godzilla vs Destoroyah with John LeMay and the Kaiju Transmissions crew. Full schedules are posted on their website, but keep an eye on their YouTube page in case you miss anything; all will be available after the livestreams. Hopefully you can attend this weekend, but if not, you should be able to check out the videos below:
- I might start up a Maser Patrol Facebook feed to keep some bite-sized findings and fun-facts up-to-date between longer blog posts. I’ve been experimenting with the format on another page, so if you want an idea (or just want to read up on tokusatsu-related manga), give that a look.
On that note, I’ll wish everyone a safe continued existence during these unusual times. We’ll return to normalcy at some point, and Maser Patrol will get back into doing some proper write-ups again as well.
