				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="aleft size-full wp-image-327" style="float: left;" title="american buildings too tall" src="http://www.tofugu.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/americanbuildingstootall.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="260" />For a while now, I&#8217;ve been doing my Godzilla (or Gojira, if you want to be cool) series over on my other site, <a href="http://www.koichiben.com">Koichiben</a>. It is all about Godzilla&#8217;s new life in Portland, OR, USA, and how he deals with all the things we take for granted. He <em>is</em> a monster, you know.</p>
<p>I was planning on uploading this video over on <a href="http://www.koichiben.com">Koichiben</a>, but that was before I took a look at the new statistics tracker that Youtube recently put up. It&#8217;s a really neat feature that shows all sorts of things, one of them being a geographical tracker; basically, I can see who watches my videos and where they are.</p>
<p>It turns out that all of my <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/koichiben">Koichiben videos</a> are watched primarily by people in Japan&#8230;<em>except</em> for my four Gojira videos, which are all primarily watched by Americans, the Brits, and Australians (don&#8217;t worry Norway, you&#8217;re in there somewhere too!). Based on those statistics, I decided I should go ahead and pull the series over here. Just makes more sense, I think.</p>
<p>This video is kind of a mix of all the other ones, with a few new things added in. Godzilla&#8217;s New Life 5: American Buildings Too Tall was actually made for a Video Art class here at school (Art classes + thesis is what second semester senior year is all about), so it&#8217;s a much different style from my previous ones. This one goes a little into the back-story of Godzilla coming to America, some of the things he goes through, and then the story of what happens after he gets back from his Hawaiian vacation (Godzilla #4). Poor Godzilla. Times are a little tough for the lizard. So, without further adieu, check out the video! I hope you laugh, even though it&#8217;s a bit darker than previous ones. I really enjoyed making it, anyways.<span id="more-326"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: center;">[yframe url='http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NhOkzxlv-qk']</p>
<p>Poor Godzilla! I wonder what will happen next? How will he get out of his impoverished situation? I suppose you&#8217;ll just have to find out when I get around to making the next one.</p>

It&#8217;s for my thesis, and I&#8217;ll release the information after I&#8217;m done with it so you can hopefully learn something new about learning Japanese as well :)</p>
