Name: Rebuilt Tokyo (Tokyo 2) Story appearances: Kaiju 2 Size: Size of Original Tokyo
Description: The rebuilt Tokyo is much more militaristic than any other city on Earth, no doubt for the simple fact it houses the United Earth Defense Forces main compound, which is housed underground. Think the Hive from Resident Evil movie, but with docks for weapons and kaiju. While Tokyo Tower and the Diet Building are gone, there are newer constructions that make this a notable city.
One is the second Tokyo Tower which is nearly twice the size of the original and loaded with rocket launchers. The other main difference is four towers, each around the size of the original Tokyo Tower. These towers are all black and have four forks that tip the top.
Tokyo 2 still has the bay, large buildings, and plenty of homes.
Hazards and Notable Landmarks: - Weapon Towers X4. Located in the city's four corners, each weapon can fire the range of the entire city and then some with various weapons that include missiles (near limitless amounts of each). Five Homing Spiral Grenade Missiles (think Moggy's but faster and can home in), and 17 Maser Turrets (Heisei strength). - Tokyo Tower 2. Colored red and white, the rebuilt Tokyo Tower is larger and loaded with missiles and masers to try and prevent its destruction. - Sally, the Anti-Kaiju Sniper Rifle. Sally is housed underground and rises up not far from where the Diet Building once was. The weapon can rotate in any direction and fires tank-sized bullets. The bullets act much like bullets when one shoots a human with them. This is the main Anti-Kaiju Weapon of Rebuilt Tokyo.

Name: Amazon Lake Story appearances: Kaiju 2 Size: About twice the size of Lake Michigan
Description: The Amazon Lake was formed when one of the Klenthurians beams struck the Amazon. Constant rainfall and mutant activity allowed this lake to form and grow into what it is now. The area is surrounded with lush jungle... And many hazards.
Hazards and Notable Landmarks: - Mutant Vines often attack anything that they can eat. The vines can stab and wrap around, and in some cases, bite with large Venus Fly Trap-like maws. - Mutant Piranha. Think normal Piranha... But bigger. - Mud traps in the bottom of the lake can quickly grasp onto feet and cause kaiju to sink. Think Kaiju Quick Sand.

Name: Sunken Ruins Story appearances: Kaiju 2 Size: Size of Miami
Description: The Sunken Ruins is what has been given to what remains of Miami. The entire city, and all of Florida and parts of surrounding states, have been sent beneath the waves. While many buildings remain standing beneath the sea, the area is teaming with mutant life. The depth of the city is greater than the height of any building meaning no tops stretch above the water.
Hazards and Notable Landmarks: - Dunkleos. A species of mutant eel. The Dunkleos are equipped with massive Dunkleosteus mouths to render flesh of anything that ventures into their land.

These all look pretty good, although I have a few questions about the Amazon Lake and the Sunken Ruins.
1. How big are the piranha mutants of Amazon Lake and the Dunkleos of the Sunken Ruins? We're going to need at least a rough size estimate (size of a car? 10 meters long? you know, something like that) to judge whether or not they're acceptable (they can be Showa kaiju sized so long as they're not as strong as the official entry kaiju).
2. How much dry land is there in both the Amazon Lake and Sunken Ruins? You said there's some outside the Lake, but is there enough for there to be a battle if all the contestants aren't aquatic? And the Sunken Ruins sounds like it's completely underwater. That would definitely be a problem for all the non-aquatic kaiju in the tournament (which is basically most of the kaiju in it so far).

Guess I should have put the sizes in... >.>
The Piranha are about the size of an 18-wheeler, but they swarm in schools that can consist of a hundred or more. Can be very lethal to even larger scale kaiju.
The Dunkleos would vary in lengths. Usually from 30 meters to about 100 meters. I should also say that their leader, Dunkleoder would not be present in the arena since he is a full blown, large scale kaiju.
For Sunken Ruins... You'd have to travel several hundred miles. I'd imagine, for the sake of an arena... It's ALL underwater.
While Amazon Lake, its mostly all water. Some small isles here and there, but nothing big enough for two kaiju to actually have an entire battle on.

I'm going to tenatively approve the Amazon Lake, but hold off on my opinion of the Sunken Ruins till another mod gives their opinion. The entirely water angle of the latter could be troublesome.

Name: Orochi's Body Story appearances: End of Time (Much, Much Later) Size: 10 miles long, about 3 miles wide
Description: Orochi was the largest creation in all existence and has been killed twice and returned on both occasions by unknown forces. After Hades developed a plan to utilize Guitonolus, the guardian of time, to demolish Earth and get his own revenge on Tirran, Milenko, and Demortis, Orochi once again came back from the grave. With Orochi back, the God Slayer Darklore was also freed from the prison inside its belly.
While not seen all that much in the story itself, the insides of Orochi are just like any other animal's. One would have to rip through organs and tissue to find ways out, but also have to avoid dangers such as pools of stomach acid and electrical pulses.
Hazards and Notable Landmarks: - The stomach acid and saliva of Orochi are incredible acidic. Imagine Alien acid on a kaiju level. - Electrical pulses on the spinal cord can cause severe damage to kaiju and unprotected mechs. - Methane bubbles near the rear of the super-sized beast can erupt into massive balls of fire if introduced to a flame or spark.

All the previous FFKTs had 100% underwater arenas in the past. Various oceans, Nilai Kanai... it's not a big deal, I don't think.
Though like the previous FFKTs, I think it's necesarry for all monster owners to state if there's any terrain that their monsters absolutely cannot survive in, so we can make sure their fighters don't wind up in such arenas.
I don't see any real problem with the Amazon or Sunken Ruins.
Now Orochi's body.... I'm gonna wait for what the other guys have to say. I like it, yeah, but it MIGHT prove a little troublesome.
As for Tokyo 2....... The big gun scares me a little, but that actually sounds like it could create an edge and force fighters to alter tactics. I'll go ahead and approve that.

If completely water arenas have a historical precendent, then I approve whole heartedly of the Sunken Ruins in addition to Amazon Lake and Tokyo 2.
I assume by the "most kaiju are equipped with a pulse" like you mean as in a heart beat? Because if you mean a nuclear pulse a la Godzilla, well, only Godzilla has one of those. Presuming you mean the former, I'll approve Orochi. The other hazards are suitably hazardous but easily avoided by a smart kaiju.

Nuclear, fire, ice, electrical, etc.

Name: Nebulan Hive Story appearances: Kaiju 2 Size: 15 miles across. Description: The Nebulan Hive can easily be described as a cross between a Zerg Hive from Star Craft and a gigantic termite hive. The ground is wet and moist with large towers sticking out from the surface. Moon rock help hold the large towers together. While the true happenings happen under the moon's surface, the surface is almost always crawling with the insect-like Nebulans. In the center of hive there lays a mushroom shape growth that is composed of purple and green goo, along with moon rock. This structure plums out a strange white mist that spider webs over the sky and sinks down into openings all over the surface. The gas is oxygen. The oxygen in turn is produced by an unknown means via some form of chemical reaction that happens in the mushroom-like object. Hazards and Notable Landmarks: - The large mushroom like growth in the Hive is the only source of Oxygen. While the Nebulans can and will replace this in a few days while the underground colony thrives on reserves, the kaiju above will find it very hard to breath if they need to. - The goo-like-covered surface will be hard for kaiju to stand on regularly. Think of it as trying to stand on slick, very wet ice. - The Nebulans are notorious for stealing technology of conquered planets. While most of the weapons are far too complex and hard to figure out for the insects, they have figured out how to use some machines. Unfortunately for them, these weapons are no greater than the Earth's tanks, masers, and jets. Pretty much just canon fodder when up against kaiju.

Name: Deadly Alliance Ship Story appearances: The Deadly Alliance Size: 3 miles wide. About 5 miles high.
Description: The Deadly Alliance's ship was the shape of a gigantic circus tent, but since this shall be inside the ship, I'll describe that part first.
Inside the ship, however, is where the fun parts of the fight would be. Used by Milenko, Demortis, and Redavni, the ship is much like a kaiju-sized laboratory with tables filled with different chemicals, chairs, and doors. Lining the walls, however, are twelve glass chambers that are constantly flashing various lights. The chamber's front size and pull up and allow demons to walk out and attack.
The walls are strong, but just if any kaiju does manage to magically break the walls, they'll find themselves in the demolished New York City. The ship itself, as said, is shaped like a circus tent with massive spires lifting from the top. The ship is armored in a blue and black pattern of stripes.
Hazards and Notable Landmarks: - The twelve chambers regularly summon demons to attack. The demons are usually 40-50 meters in height, but are nothing particularly strong. They are always humanoid in shape, but can be all bones, or muscle with no skin, or have many eyes and no mouth, etc. The demons are equipped with Necro Blades, a type of demonic weapon that instantly causes high infection on flesh and rust on metal. They are also equipped with metal shields, but most kaiju can easily break the shields with one or two attacks. Strength wise these are about as strong as an Army of Darkness skeleton warrior with scale. They can be rather easily killed, but the numbers they can grow if not taken out can quickly grow.

Name: Guylos Testing Grounds Story appearances: Kaiju 2 Size: 5 miles wide and long
Description: The Guylos Testing Grounds are in the Nevada Desert and take up a 25-mile perimeter. The area is made to test out weapons and robotics. The area is also used to train the Bio-Weapons Plague, Suchodon, and Swamp.
The area is rather flat, but has some piles of rock and trenches. Parts of the testing grounds have large chunks of steel that have yet to be removed from previous battles. Emerging from the ground on all four corners are a single large, 70-meter tall pole. Each pole creates an energy barrier that is virtually unbreakable. The barrier blocks everything inside, but fliers can still escape it. On the other side of the barrier, large grandstands allow visitors to watch was it happening inside the testing grounds. Other people camp out and watch also.
All funds go to the U.E.D.F to develop new weapons. ;D
Hazards and Notable Landmarks: None

Oh. Then I'm going to retract that approval because, as I said before, most kaiju DON'T have an energy pulse. For example, only one in the Godzilla series had one: Godzilla. If another mod doesn't think it's a problem, then I'll allow it, but as is Orochi's body seems too deadly to be a suitable arena.
Onto your most recent arenas:
Nebulan Hive: Seems pretty balanced. I approve.
Deadly Alliance Ship: The army of skeletons with rotting blades sounds a bit too strong. You'd have to make the blades just normal for me to approve, or limit their numbers to just a few. While secondary kaiju can appear in the arenas, we'd really prefer if they didn't distract too much from the main battle, and an army of Godzilla-high skeletons with magic blades seems like just a bit too much.
Guylos Testing Grounds: Pretty basic. I approve.

The bacteria has been deleted, but for the demon skeletons... They're not very strong. Even in the story, simple kicks and tail whacks were able to destroy them.
