As I'm one third Irish (I'm also German and Puerto Rican, BTW), I've
always wanted to do a St. Patrick's Day-themed doodle! But at the same
time, 40 years ago today, one of my all-time favorite films was released
in Japan: Godzilla Vs. Megalon (Toho; 1973)! Besides being my
personal favorite Godzilla film, it was also the first film I was ever
taken to see in theaters.
So why not do a crossover art? Here's Lily Merriweather, dressed in green, and wearing a 4-leaf clover brooch in place of her regular flower brooch. She's riding piggyback on Dengeking, as Rekira watches in interest. This is basically a reenactment of the closing scene of the aforementioned film. :)
The line at the right, incidentally, says, "Don't cry, we'll try harder, too!" (My translation of the closing sentence, "Naku na, bokura mo ganbarou!", in "With Godzilla And Jet Jaguar, Punch, Punch, Punch!" - the closing theme song for Godzilla Vs. Megalon, sung by my all-time favorite Japanese singer, Masato Shimon.)
This makes a good companion piece to the one I did last year!
