Now I am not going to bore you with an extensive essay on the history of the character featured here, and will instead save that for a Kaiju Portrait entry, later down the line.

In the meantime though, I will stay this.

If I was ever to do a Top Ten List of My Favorite Giant Monsters, first of all, it would be DAMN difficult just to pick ten to begin with. And secondly, the Sphinx giantess dubbed Itassis (also known as Hades Goddess Sphinx) would diffidently be in that final top ten.

I just love her!

She first appeared in "Mahou Sentai Magiranger" (2005-to-2006), under the name Hades Goddess Spinx. She returned again in the American adaptation "Power Rangers Mystic Force" under the new name of Itassis.

And in both her Japanese and American incarnations (which are more-or-less the same), she was a complex character whose on the gray-line between good and evil. But thankfully, gave into the former ideal in the end, without diminishing her overall awesomeness.

She's a great fantasy based character, who in edition to being a gigantic sphinx, is a wise sage and fearsome fighting sorceress, when she needs to be. But at the same time, has the humorous, offbeat vibe that all the better Tokusatsu characters have, namely the fact that she wears glasses, and is constantly pushing them upwards, even in the most serious of situations.

And she's not only a female kaiju, but an attractive, humanoid one at that. Admittedly however, I'd rather see Itassis accomplished through a real actress with effects make-up, over a well designed and constructed full-body suit.

Hear that talented lady cosplayers of DeviantART? I've thrown down Itassis challenge to you all!

Itassis is also everything that I've always loved about the 'Kaijin' (monster-people) of the Super Sentai and Power Rangers series - so much so, that she instantly trumped my former top favorite of Ecliptor, from "Power Rangers In Space". And in turn, was kind of hard to 'sexy her up' for this illustration, because I do have great respect for the Itassis, as opposed to my simpler Benny Hill-style attraction towards gorgeous and / or strong women.

Guess all the readying and studying must've tired her out.
