Just a bit of fun, nothing serious. Maybe I'll add other episodes, but probably won't.

Tagline

Scooby and the gang face a giant, purple-ooze-spewing octopus monster that's terrorizing a beautiful Japanese park just after its grand opening, scaring away investors. They must race against time to solve this slippery mystery before the park's biggest backer pulls out, following clues like huge suction cup marks and the beast's path towards the ancient pagoda.
