In the 1980s and 1990s, two monsters known as Biggugurīn I and II ravaged the United States. In 1996, a scientists of the soon-to-be defunct Kaiju Deterrent Organisation named Dr. Marvin Ragnul managed to eliminate the second iteration of the monster by dumping him in a Volcano out of revenge for the original Biggugurīn killing his wife and daughter during the Battle of Central Park.
However, on the 5th August 2012, a photograph was taken of what looked like a third iteration of Biggugurīn emerging in the East River and destroying the Manhattan Bridge. The small remnants of the K.D.O. scrambled to deal with this situation however Biggugurīn III submerged before any action could be taken. This is the first monster sighting in 16 years.
