Anyone speak Japanese and can help me work out what this says?

I´m thinking of buying my nephew a hoodie for Christmas, but it has this Japanese (I think?!) writing on it. I just want to make sure it says something sensible first (rather than have him wander round with something rude/random on his shirt!)

(Hoping the pic attached...)

I used the camera for Google translate 😎

Gojira is Japanese for Godzilla
Kaijuu is monster
Not sure about the last word - it's written in katakana, which is the Japanese alphabet used to spell non-Japanese words, and it says 'Arufua', but I'm not sure what that means.

Interested in this thread?

My Japanese is pretty rusty. The first word is Godzilla.

Think below is 'alpha monster'.

Ooh yes, 'alpha' would make sense for those katakana, @TheSpider thank you!

Ah you guys are amazing!

Unsurprisingly it is a Godzilla hoodie I´m looking at, so am relieved to know its not completely random!

Thanks so much 😀
