One of my favorite monster movies as a kid: Godzilla's Revenge (aka All Monsters Attack). In which small kid learns to fight back against bullies after befriending Godzilla's son, Minilla (Minira, Miniya). Damn, did I want my own monster pal.
Minilla first appeared (in fact, came out of an egg) in Son of Godzilla. (Can't embed that one.)

It may pay to recall a famous line from the Tom Selleck magnum opus, Mr. Baseball: "Jack-san, you want Yoji's advice about the babes, you come to Yoji with respect."

That brings back memories, though personally I always preferred the monsters who were 'human' as opposed to the Japanese kind.
After all, although an American actor starred in the original Godzilla, it was an American actor in an American movie who won an Oscar for a 'monster' he portrayed.
