History YMMV / DeathKappa

* FridgeBrilliance: Yes this film has some.
** the tag line says King Kong is dead and that Godzilla is retired works in a meta sense because the most recent [[Film/KingKong2005 King Kong]] movie was a remake of the original and ends with the titular monsters death, and Film/GodzillaFinalWars was Godzilla’s last movie before Toho retired him until [[Film/Godzilla2014 2014]].

* MemeticMutation: "Now is the time to restore true Showa ambition!" Spoken by Creator/HideakiAnno's character. It has jokingly been referenced in regards to his directing of Film/ShinGodzilla.

* IndecisiveParody: Probably the biggest criticism this film receives is the fact that the production team seemed too uncertain about how much they wanted the story to be taken seriously.

* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: After Death Kappa first gets knocked down by Hangyolas in the final battle a helicopter, carrying what can only be the world’s largest cucumber, flies over to Death Kappa who proceeds to eat the cucumber before getting back up.

* {{Narm}}: The English dub is definitely this especially during the death in Hangyolas’ rampage.

* HilariousInHindsight: Some elements of the plot for this movie are very similar to DaimajinKanon, specifically the fact that both had an aspiring female singer as the human protagonist and a specific song that can control the titular kaiju, and both came out the same year.
