From what I have read, many Mo'o are venerated as patron deities of particular families with the individual Mo'o talked about in the video being such a patron. Hail to the Mo'o! May They protect Hawaii and its people

0:00 That woman is Mo'o and beside a monster creature who likes her.
0:47 Mo'o approach a man.
1:13 A monster creature attack warriors.
Wow that was totally impressive story of Mo'o The Reptilian Guardian of Hawaiian Folklore.

[LacertaZilla]

For a minute there, I thought it was Godzilla

[elidesportelli]

I love these mythological creatures that come from all the world

[touremuhammad]

Please cover more Hawaiian Mythology in your next videos. 🌺

[elidesportelli]

I love Mythology, is very interesting

[nicholaslienandjaja]

Would like to see the Mo'o as a Titan in the MonsterVerse. My guess is that the Mo'o in the MonsterVerse is actually their take on Titanosaurus.

[magnorecinos]

That sounds cool. Keep up with Hawaiian mythology. 👍

I still remember that one video about Salazzle being more of a a Mo'o than Kommo-o.

[kristofgriffin]

Fun fact! The Pokemon Kommo-o is based on the Mo'o.

Women's fantasy to manipulate and wield creatures of power to serve their needs is immortal.
It's in all our fairytales stories, womens romance novels and it's evidenced by women's attraction to dark triad men.
Superman and lois, beauty and beast, the vampire and werewolf romances, king kong, 50 shades, attraction to prison inmates and serial killers.
I'm sure there is more lol

[JesusPerez-rj]

Wow wow, This is New. Hawaiian and Polynesian legends, Maori. 👍🏻 👏🏻

[rachelwinters]

All I can do is respect the locals with their folklore and take their warnings seriously

[maximusthewolfreborn]

I know there’s sometimes a little information on this idea but the next video I want to see is I heard there’s some called king Arthur’s Messiah return

[PapaJetTV]

I thought its Komodo Dragon at first .

Zeus:(screams) I will tell the future in your entrails, Slav!
Perun: I know my future... *you have none!*

This is not an entirely correct/full interpretation of Moʻo. I would always suggest learning cultural information from the actual native peoples. If you want to learn more, read "Ka Poʻe Moʻo Akua" by Marie Alohilani Brown, a kanaka maoli scholar of religion.
