Why Gamera is one of my comfort characters
I have established Gamera alongside Courage the Cowardly Dog are my comfort characters.
Gamera because he's basically Superman but a kaiju. Embodiment of hope, faith and optimistism which is the core of his character and he never gives up when fighting no matter how much physical pain he goes through (Been stabbed through the stomach both G2 and G3, blew off his own arm to escape in G3, had his arm decapitated in Rebirth by Guiron, but despite continues to fight until his enemy is dead, that is the embodiment of will)
Like Courage. Gamera teaches me the same things as Courage does facing the challenges I face despite being afraid which is what makes me in turn brave.
That's why is Gamera such an underappreciated and underrated character who deserves better and more attention notably story potential especially crossovers.
