I always love seeing creature characters added, they're always far more interesting to me. It's gonna be fun flying around, killing things as a demon whale.
It's a real simple yokai. Not even a god really. The few tales we have are real 1 note. Whale dies due to fishermen hunting it. Later on, a skeletal spirit arises and seeks vengeance upon a local population, Often tricking fishermen to waste their resources hunting a non-corporeal hunt or literally plaguing their island with their presence. Sometimes it includes a following of unrecognizable fish and spectral birds surrounding it. After that? It really is as simple as "Whale ghost."
I LOVE THIS SOO MUCH : D I think this is the most hyped I've been for a god before (alongside Ishtar), and it's all just because IT'S A DAMN WHALE 🐋 I hope his skins end up being amazing
I would love to see the Gashadokuro next from Japan, that would be terrifying. Wait better yet, make it a neutral enemy that stalks after X amount of minions die.
His name already is using godzilla's name. His name means monster whale or something like that, and godzilla is "gojira" in Japanese, very similar to kojira. And he's a yokai, not a kaiju, as kaiju are a modern concept. But you can say myth like him inspired godzilla and thus count as kaiju. The issue is that I think godzilla is an original monster owned by corporations, like king kong or superman. Otherwise smite would just have superman and godzilla. Cthulhu showed that real myth isn't necessary. That said I do think cthulhu is different though, if not pointless as his kit has nothing to do with cthulhu. He's just a big monster
I love whales and I know nothing about his mythology but the voice effects were cool and im so hyped! also I poor whales, I still cant believe we used to hunt them, very cool lore
Also found out that if you see a bake kujira then tragedy will befall your village and also a bake kujira's arrival is heralded by strange fish and birds.

are yall gonna make lifesteal viable again, and bring back the fluidity of the old conquest map. just feels like this game is headed in a "QuickPlay" direction, more kills means you win game, faster kills, faster game. i mean just from a number perspective, since these changes at the start of season 10 have been implemented the player base is almost at an all time low.
