User blog comment:Lord Loss/Discussion of the Week: Returning Monsters/@comment-1011548-20140805113152

I've banged on about how incredibly arbitrary MH4's cast is, but it's still weird Ukanlos goes MHFU -> MHP3 whereas Akantor goes MHF2/MHFU -> MHP3 -> MH4.

Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but is Amatsu the only monster not to return in ANY subsequent game?
