Gyaos Noise

Hey, certified Gameraheads! What kind of onomatopoeia would be good for replicating the sounds made by Gyaos?

I know the classic “generic godzilla roar” is often transcribed as “skreeonk”, would y’all have an equivalent?

Just asking since I’m dressing as Gyaos for Halloween this year and want to really seal the deal with some good yells, so any help in that department would be much appreciated. I’d also massively appreciate any isolated MP3 files to make a soundboard or smth.

Question about Rebirth

Is there an actual reason Barugon wasn't in Rebirth? All the other Showa monsters were so why not the first one Gamera ever fought?

What's your opinion on Gamera Rebirth? The TV Show that brought back Gamera after 17 years

Honestly I thought it Was A Masterpiece!! Loved everything they did with The Kaiju, The Story and Characters, it was a really mature story despite having Kids as the leads, overall what a fantastic show and I'll cherish it forever also the fact that Kadokawa actually brought back Gamera and gave him another chance gotta give big props to them and the team who made The Show, just wished more people supported it on Netflix

"Gamera vs Wyvern" My version of the script

The race of Zigra and Viras are eager to take revenge for their leaders, approaching the earth they plan to think about how to destroy Gamera?But they notice each other, through negotiations they agree to divide the earth's resources into plots.The Zigra race gets water, and the Viras race gets all the resources of the planet.Two races form a plan to destroy Gamera, they learn that Gamera is not the only monster on planet earth.That's why they send their ships to collect data and the remains of Gamera's former enemies.Zigra's ship finds the remains of Barugon in the lake and takes it along with the water, while Viras' ship destroys the volcano in order to pick up the burnt corpse of Gyaos.At the depths, Zigra's ship finds something huge, mistaking it for the corpse of a kaiju, they try to take it away, but it turns out that it is a living kaiju, Kujira Gami, they give strong resistance.Zigra's ship leaves.The ships return to Terra, where a Wyvern is created from the remains of monsters using the DNA of Barugon, Gyaos, and Zigra.Two races specifically give the Wyvern great intelligence and strong wings.The invasion begins, two ships begin to destroy everything they see, two races are waiting for Gamera to appear so they can set their own beast on him.Gamera appears to protect people. A Wyvern flies out of the sky, under the command of the Zigra and Viras races, the Wyvern attacks Gamera.Gamera dodges and attacks with fire breath, but Wyvern deflects it with its wings.Viras and Zigra's ships begin to attack Gamera, causing him to retreat.Zigra's ships begin to take on water, which angers Kujira Gami.He attacks the ship. But a wyvern arrives and gives battle to the whale god.Two Monsters go under water, the Wyvern uses its beak and its claws, scratching Kujira Gami's face,with the help of its tail, the wyvern lifts Kujira Gami from the water to the surface and throws it into the ocean over long distances. And he flies after him, he use my beam against Kujira Gami, but it does not work. Therefore, the wyvern destroys the rock under water, a collapse occurs, and imprisons Kujira Gami.The Wyvern hears the Roar of Gamera which attacks the ships, the Wyvern flies to the aid of its creators.The Wyvern pushes Gamera, Gamera notices that something is wrong with the Wyvern's tail, as if the tail is searching for something, the Wyvern suddenly attacks with fire and then ice,Gamera moves away, the Wyvern does not move. But the Wyvern, with the help of its tail, pulls out a huge boulder from the ground, which was twice the size of the Wyvern, and throws it at Gamera...Gamera does not have time to dodge, the attack was sudden! Gamera is knocked out, the Zigr and Viras races were already ready to celebrate the victory...,But something is wrong.... The Wyvern slowly turns towards its creators, does not obey the orders of its creators as before...Suddenly a wyvern attacks two ships, burning the Zigra race and freezing the Viras race....The Wyvern flies into the air and disappears. At this time, the gamera pushes away a large rock and climbs up looking for the Wyvern. Wyvern attacks Tokyo, military is powerless.A gamera emerges from the fire and attacks the Wyvern.The Wyvern's tail wraps around Gamera's neck. And throws him back. Gamera gets an idea, the Wyvern approaches, Gamera quickly moves to the side, takes the tail and ties the two heads so that they can use attacks.This causes two heads to explode and Gamera roars in victory.Gamera goes into the water and frees Kujira Gami, and together they swim into the depths.
