Ooh, it's colored now! The colors you chose are so vibrant and compliment this video game setting perfectly. The ending was hilarious. These Kaiju Arcade comics have been a delight to read, honored that Karaga could be the first opponent!
Obviously it's difficult to not love this one, not just with the surprise cameo (it heartens me Gigara got to share a spot at some point in this tournament TvT), not just the allusion to the wonderful Smash Bros Brawl of yesteryear, not just the solid consistent quality across the rounds, not just the comedy; What I like about these pages is that it really feels like you centered having fun first and foremost and I think that really resonates with the readers. Thanks for the ride, I hope it's not too long until the next time there's more pages from you in the future!

There's not much I can say: This is just a solid entertaining thrill ride with rich engrossing world building and to be able to deliver three full colored comics for the whole tournament is a titanic cherry on top of the whole wonderful cake. Even as the reveal of Roel is not hard to expect from last round it's still delivered with chilling effect. Fun note on the sharp writing, I definitely noticed the empire's claim of defense as we watch a full-scale attack ongoing. Much as I wish the linework was sharper/cleaner, the colors and panel compositions especially do so much carrying it's not a big issue. Truly great work from round to round

Strong action was to be expected going into this, but this is possibly my favorite conclusion to all the final comics because it's been building from a mystery that isn't even fully realized until the final moments: For pages upon pages I have been noticing that this spider is above and beyond anything expected of most arachnid kaiju. It has keen combat sense, its body is practically designed for battle against almost any opponent, but it doesn't seem to be more than a natural megafauna outside of battle either. There was definitely something going on, I had wondered, and then the reveal of its lifecycle puts all the pieces together. This Tremora is part of a long line of mutations and adaptations with each generation with the biological imperative to breed the most powerful iteration to replace the last. With as strong as this Tremora is, there is dread in thinking about how powerful the one that will replace them will be, and what that means for the world. A perfect kaiju story of how small we are to nature's might. A's abound
What a fantastic way to end their arc in this tournament, tying up the loose ends but leaving then wide open for a new story. They've been on quite a ride and I'd love to see more!
Red you can't just whip out Gigara like that it gives you an unfair advantage! >:/
All joking aside, this was another solid entry on your part, very well done! And I definitely appreciate you trying to twist it up a bit at the end. After getting ganged up on last round she just wants to relax with some games!
The technical aspects of your comic remain strong as ever, the real standout feature here is the writing, particularly at the end. It's an interesting turn for Tremora since we've never really gotten a sense for her as a character. This does have its ups and downs. It flashes her out more, for sure, and gives us a sense of her goals and desires, which she didn't really have before, she seemed more like a simple beast acting on pure instinct. But that's where I have mixed feelings on it, not because it's badly done here or anything, but because I wish we had gotten some of that in the previous rounds as well. But that doesn't diminish what you've done here or make it any less impressive

Once again, this is such an incredible display of very skilled artists duking it out in comics. It's mind-blowing how much talent there was in Kaiju Clash. Wonderful work from all of you
RED - The art in this round is absolutely insane! The colors, shading and setting blew me away. Such a fun premise too, the 4th wall break at the end was super clever. Very fun, cute and feast for the eyes round.
DOE- The cover and thumbnail art is so inspired and beautiful. It is very ominous and refreshing, looove it. The art is incredible too, love the way you color and shade. The way the palette switched through the entire battle was very inspiring and it fit the mood for the story beautifully.
CYBVERMANANON - The lineart, inks, grayscale and textures are such a treat for the eyes. It's like my eyes are touching a very smooth and pleasant surface lmao. Beautiful use of values through the entire battle. The ending was very unsettling and I loved it
Wow this was great, fun read, great colors and panel structures! Love how you can make each panel almost like its there interacting with the page. Great job
I really loved this, the composition, the shots, just fantastically put together. Still shocked as hell that this was done in 2 weeks! Tremora having a twist in this comic really just made me love her even more!

My god, dude. Just, absolutely insane that in 3 comics you built up intrigue, and paid it off so fucking well here. This was so fun to read and the fight was excellent as always. But these softer moments really balance it out. I love love love that there was a moment where it looked like things were about to get very dark, phenomenal art as always. I can't believe how much lore and satisfying resolutions there was in here. Bravo, Doe!
This was such a treat. Oh my GOD. I loved the fight through and through, but then to see my girl show up to play a game as well??? That's so cool! Thanks for the cameo, and as always, your style is INCREDIBLE!
I appreciate how all 3 of these comics stand out from each other and yours is definitely a unique enough spin on things. Also your screen tones have been very strong this whole tourno.

The action is very fun to watch! The twist with Tremaora was quite unexpected, I enjoyed that added depth.
I love this ongoing story, I'm excited to see where it goes next! The colors are very striking and made your comics stand out.

Great read, love the expressions
Congratulations all finalists!

What an interesting conclusion to this saga, hope you continue it even outside the tournament.
I'm amazed by the amount of detail of each of your panels! Didn't expect the end and I really enjoyed it.
I loved how crazy this got at the end hahahah. Very cool stuff Red!

Amazing job!
The story was fantastic, loved reading the fight in this and everything in it. Greyscale and lineart were very good too ! Good job !
Wow this was great, fun read, great colors and panel structures! Love how you can make each panel almost like its there interacting with the page. Great job
Every round I look forward to see how this continues, its such a good concept for a lil series and its really fun! Good job!

Not the happiest ending but a step in the right direction for them.
