Your Godman powers cannot compare to my MSPaint attack!!

March of Godzilla: Godman is back with another quick joint of Godman to ruin your day and your being a fan of kaiju shows. Dang it, Godman, why you got to be so bad? This time Godman is battling the spectacularly memorable Tsunosilver (which means Hornsilver), who is actually doing bad things, so does deserve to be stopped. Good to see Godman back on track after last time when he was being up on a helpless child monster. Be sure to check out the Godman Splash Page for more Godman monster beating mayhem!
Tsunosilver is a devil monster with big tongue sticking out like he’s Miley Cyrus or something. He has two rows of spikes down his back, and blasts a white mouth ray. He looks goofy, but he’s undeniably evil, so I support his murder by Godman 100%.
Tsunosilver fires a ray out of his mouth and blows up a passenger jet! Godman suddenly has a higher body count than Power Rangers! Godman, do your job and show up and stop this monster! Stop fooling around with those kids who want you to fight baby monsters in the woods, this is important!
Godman finally shows up and it’s on. The two big guys fight and fight, and fight and fight. Then they fight and fight! This is one of the Godman fights that is the most sexual in nature. When one combatant is on the other and the Tsunosilver tongue is touching Godman’s face, it gets all weird. But as the only part on the DVD is the first episode, I don’t know if it gets any weirder. For that, we’ll need to search the internet and hope it shows up. Maybe you are into that. Maybe this show explains more about Japan than we’d like to think. Until then, tsuzuku.

Ike! Godman Splash Page
Godman was Toho’s first tokusatsu, premiering Thursday, October 5th, 1972, on the Good Morning! Kids Show on NTV. This was a day before Toho’s Rainbowman series premiered, so Godman is technically first even if his show is only five minutes long. This means we must be respectful of his place in history, even though he is terrible and so is his show! The story was designed to play six days a week at five minutes each episode, wrapping around the weekend, and providing a complete Godman adventure. But as the show is almost entirely Godman fighting a different monster each week without any of that plot nonsense, it’s not 100% required for you to watch every episode. Eventually, the Ike! Godman series was replaced by the successor Ike! Greenman series, and Greenman would battle some of the monsters from Godman. Never fear, the plots would be just as scarce.
Ike Godman stood in obscurity for decades, with only a few episodes released on laserdisc format (or so the people who upload clips claim), which soon began circulating in the exciting world of grey market vhs tapes. In 2008, the world was shocked when DVDs were released of select episodes of Ike! Godman and Ike! Greenman, along with a brand new original short starring the pair. Shocked, because who was really clamoring for this?? Now, we did not get either full series on DVD, the disks are mainly “best of”s, with only a few complete stories and many monsters only getting a one episode appearance, if that. But like an awful jerk once said, we go to war with the army we have, and what we have is garbage that will only get worse in longer form. I have managed to find a few more extra episodes out there thanks to the magic of the internet, so that will be included when possible. Unfortunately, that means a few of the monsters have no representation at all, at least until the rest of the show is finally released somehow.
That being said, the Godman Splash Page is filled with whatever information I could muster of all the creatures and powers of Ike! Godman, which should be enough to make people think I know what I am talking about. It’s not like anyone else will watch more than one episode of this show, unless they are being tortured by terrible, terrible people. Honestly, this show is awful, and it is only interesting because of the many monster suits being reused.
