Jimmy’s Notes on Episode 82: Daniel DiManna vs. ‘Super Inframan’

Nate hasn’t had the best time with our “new normal,” but I love it! Yeah, I’m flying my junky mecha, Uber-Moguera, to recapture escaped kaiju…and my new microphone might actually be worse than my original…but I’m doing it all with my new “Planet X girlfriend” (ba-dum-tsh!), Kaguya, so I can’t complain. I just wish Nate wouldn’t. Ugh!

So, let’s dive into my first blog of season 4 and The Monster Island World Tour! It’s over episode 82 (Super Inframan, featuring Daniel DiManna).

  • It’s about time my dulcet tones were heard on the show! The Kaiju Lovers will, well, love it! (Except they didn’t. That’s the last time I buy a microphone from a Chinese eBay seller! I’m going to march into Hong Kong right now and find him and give him a one-star Yelp review!)
  • I regret fighting Not-Goldar. Mechani-Kong 2 is crowning achievement. (Don’t say that to my NASA friends, who still love the Gohten).
  • It’s better than “Pollydanna,” Mr. DiManna. That was Nate’s first choice.
  • My mic still doesn’t work?! DAMNIT! I should’ve checked where this was coming from on eBay. Freaking China! Gah! I should’ve gone with Sweetwater, like Nate said. (This was written live).
  • I was an Infra-Man once. I’d tell you which country…but then I’d have to kill you.
  • You said, “boon,” when you meant, “boom,” Danny. Those are very different words.
  • I made him a new Infra-Cycle. I still don’t think he’s used it, though….
  • What do you mean by “as straight,” Danny? That’s a loaded word.
  • “It’s my show, dangit!” Nate is power mad!
  • “Witch-Eye” candy?! (Ba-dum-tsh!) Go to horny jail!
  • “Dagger of the Mind”? Nice choice!
  • I’m well-acquainted with Xilien UFO’s…because girlfriend.
  • I have the best Mysterians fandom! It’s a giant robot!
  • What? I had a question about the…”good doctor”…how was I to know it would summon him?!
  • You meant “Chinese characters,” Nate, not Japanese. Oops. He’s been in Japan for too long.
  • I’ve seen things like Gehara, too. I don’t want to talk about them.
  • I visited the Infra-verse once. ‘Tis a silly place.
  • Try counting the explosions in a Michael Bay film, Danny. You’ll give up after ten minutes. Trust me, I tried.
  • The “Yes, quites” give me flashbacks.
  • You know how sensitive I am about death jokes, Marchand! “Kinda died.” I kinda died!
  • Did I go to that “The Dragon Lives Again” afterlife when I died…I don’t want to talk about it.
  • The Dragon Lives Again sounds perfect for movie night! With what you’ve made me and the rest of the gang watch, come on!
  • Ever heard of polygamy?
  • I’ll get started on the Tofu Fury Jaeger. The blueprints will be ready in a few months.
  • “Kung Food” is going to be a new restaurant on the Island, isn’t it? I swear, the Island is evidence that manifestation works. Or maybe it’s just the Board.

There you go!

We have a loaded January for you! Not only are we kicking off season 4, we have our first “Godzilla Redux” of the season with Son of Godzilla, featuring Neil Riebe. We also have a two-part “special report” on AppleTV+’s MonsterVerse series, Monarch: Legacy of Monsters, which will be a compilation of weekly Patreon episodes, and an impromptu bonus episode on Hammer Films’ The Abominable Snowman thanks to MIFV MAX member, Matt Walsh (but Not That Matt Walsh).

Remember: We shall overcome!
