I was impressed with the Kaiju. Not the Jaiger.
Something is telling Iron Man would be a bigger threat than one of those giant robots.
If Thor isn't jobbing like he was in the Avengers movie and retains the power level he was at in his solo film between him, Hulk, and Iron Man I think the Avengers have a shot. Captain America and Widow are useless obviously against the creatures so they will be performing rescue efforts and crowd control as possible.
The Kaiju were pretty uber though. All of them seemed to be able to use acid, were naturally stronger than the robots, and one even set off an EMP.
Can all Kaiju fly? Because if not Iron Man should have no problem maintaining distance.
Don't underestimate Hawkeye though. The dude could definitely scout all these creatures and snipe them in their weak spots.

It took six days of nonstop tanks and airforce fire to take down a class 1. A few exploding arrows aren't even gonna tickle.
Remember one of the earlier Kajiu were shown to fit on an aircraft carrier so I could see that arrow doing some damage.
Originally posted by NotAllThatEvilI just wanted to point out Hawkeye potentially has a damaging arrow against Kaiju. He could potentially cause damage by firing it into it's eyes or mouth 😛
Maybe against a class 1, not class 5.
Also has fun as it is to denote size and power of Kaiju once you got to class 3 to 4 and possibly 5 to a lesser degree their power levels didn't seem to increase significantly.
One class 3 managed to take Gypsy Danger down while later in the movie Gypsy Danger was able to beat 2 Class 4 Kaiju.
Striker was able to damage and slice up the class 5 Kaiju some before detonating he bomb. Class 5s are still insanely durable and the Avengers would have a hard time even managing to take down one of them. Although I could see Hulk jumping inside one to cause some damage, same with Thor.
IronMan might be able to go inside and laser blast one's brain.

They have a two brains...
It's not the same as their main brain. It's not like it's a straight back up where if you destroy the main brain the smaller can kick in to keep the monster going.
You take out the one brain the Kaiju is done for.
Originally posted by NotAllThatEvilI don't think being a large animal means you need two brains.
Off topic: do large animals really have two brains?
I have heard that there are animals that have multiple brain type organs. Like an Octopus os said to have brains in all their tentacles. I don't know how valid that statement is though.
But I think most large creatures like a Blue Whale only have one brain.
Someone was trying to make a case for the toxic nature of the kaiju and I figured I'd look into it.
Kaiju are creatures of a highly toxic nature and have been categorized on the "Serizawa Scale". Each Kaiju is classified under five different categories. Categories 1 through_2 represent the weakest of the Kaiju, while Categories_3 through 5 are the strongest. The Serizawa Scale measures water displacement, toxicity and ambient radiation levels given off by their bodies when they pass through the breach.[7] The fluid of a Kaiju is ammonia-based. Should they be killed in battle, their bodies are triggered to self-destruct immediately.[8]Upon decomposing, their bodies release a noxious agent into the air known as "Kaiju Blue", their blood. Kaiju Blue has the ability to contaminate the air, making it non-breathable. The blood of a Kaiju is highly acidic, corroding anything in its path. This makes it especially hard to gather samples safely for examination and experimentation. As a result, Jaegers have been equipped with weapons that cauterize wounds they inflict on Kaiju to prevent the spread of their highly acidic internal fluids[8]. As silicon-based organisms, the design of their bodies makes it difficult to determine and study particular parts of their internal systems[note 1][8].
