Barugon

Barugon (バルゴン) is a monster featured in the second Gamera film, 1966'sGamera vs. Barugon, (better known as "War of the Monsters" stateside.) Barugon is not to be confused with the similarly named Toho Kaiju Baragon. The similarity in name is probably a coincidence, as katakana only offers a limited number of three syllable combinations. They are both similar to ground-like dinosaurs. {| class="toc" id="toc" style="border-top-width:1px;border-right-width:1px;border-bottom-width:1px;border-left-width:1px;border-top-style:solid;border-right-style:solid;border-bottom-style:solid;border-left-style:solid;border-top-color:rgb(190,244,220);border-right-color:rgb(190,244,220);border-bottom-color:rgb(190,244,220);border-left-color:rgb(190,244,220);border-collapse:separate;margin-top:1em;margin-right:0px;margin-bottom:1em;margin-left:0px;padding-top:5px;padding-right:5px;padding-bottom:5px;padding-left:5px;color:rgb(58,58,58);font-family:Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:13px;line-height:21px;"
