Gomora

https://m-78.jp/z/kaiju is an ancient dinosaur-like Kaiju species from Earth. It first appeared in episode 26 of the original series, and was the first Kaiju capable of fighting an Ultra Warrior to a draw. While Gomora is frequently portrayed as a hostile Kaiju, starting with the emergence of Rei's Gomora, certain incarnations of it are portrayed as comrades to respective protagonists of the series. Thanks to his species starring in some of the Ultraman Series' most iconic episodes and battles, Gomora has become one of the most frequently recurring monsters in the series, an honor shared with only a handful of other monsters from each installment of the franchise which followed.

==Conception==
===Etymology===
Gomora's name originates from the Holy Bible, as the Kaiju was named after one of two wicked cities that were destroyed by God, in this case, Gomorrah. Interestingly, the second city to be destroyed by God also has an Ultra Kaiju named after it: Sodom.
==History==
===Ultraman===
Professor Nakaya, guarded by SSSP member Arashi, goes on a scientific expedition to the Johnson Islands. They discover that the legendary Kaiju Gomora is still alive, and Nakaya decides to bring the still-living Kaiju to a museum for the World's Fair. The SSSP agrees to do this task, despite the utter illogic and danger of bringing a living Kaiju to a largely populated city. Before the Kaiju attacks them, Arashi tranquilizes the Kaiju with the UNG Dart, and the SSSP airlifts the Kaiju via nets with the Jet VTOLs. However, the Kaiju awakes an hour early due to atmospheric changes between the island and the mainland and struggles to the point where the VTOLs have to release the nets, thus causing the Kaiju to fall two kilometers to the ground.
Enraged, Gomora goes on a rampage on Mount Rokkô (where he landed), and Ultraman, who comes to the rescue, is unable to stop the Kaiju and is beaten, much to everyone's shock. Even worse, somehow in the fight, the Beta Capsule is knocked free from wherever it's stored in Ultraman and is retrieved by a boy nicknamed the Monster Prince due to his fascination with Kaiju. 
When Gomora continues his rampage, Hayata of the SSSP uses the powerful Mars 133 gun, invented by Ide to counter the second appearance of the Baltans, and succeeds in severing his tail. But the Kaiju burrows under the ground in retreat, and later appears at Osaka Castle. The SSSP is ordered to protect the castle at any cost; however, Gomora smashes the castle. As the Kaiju pursues Ide and Arashi, the boy returns the Beta Capsule to Hayata. Hayata tells the boy to run and hide, then uses the Beta Capsule to transform back into Ultraman. Ultraman saves the day by breaking the Kaiju's nasal horn and left crest and blasting him in the forehead with his Spacium Beam. Hayata rewards the Monster Prince by giving him his communicator-insignia and tells him to both study hard and not obsess over Kaiju. 
====Trivia====
*Suit actor: Kunio Suzuki
*Gomora was the first Kaiju to defeat Ultraman (until their second battle, which Ultraman won).
**Gomora is also the second Kaiju Ultraman had to fight twice, the first being Red King who Ultraman had fought just an episode prior.
*Gomora's roar is a combination of Gaira's roar (from The War of the Gargantuas) and an elephant trumpet (which is from the Hanna-Barbera sound library). In later incarnations, Gomora also produces sounds similar to a camel's. When exhausted, Gomora makes sounds similar to King Kong and King Caesar.
*Gomora's suit would later be modified to create the Kaiju, Zaragas.
*Gomora's original design was to have a second head crest pointing down. This design was used instead for Gomora II in Ultraman 80.
*The images of Gomora shown to Arashi were actually design concepts drawn for the Kaiju.
*Gomora's designs would eventually inspire Greymon, a Digimon from the Digimon franchise, with the reference seen on his durable cranial skin, mimicking said Kaiju's horn.
*Originally, Gomora and Red King were to be revived by Geronimon but, due to their suits being in overused condition, they were replaced by Telesdon and Dorako. This fact is mistakenly left in the English dub when the SSSP mistook the revived Kaiju for Gomora and Red King, respectively.
*In episode 25 of Ultraman Taro, Gomora was seen in an animated flashback as part of the Monster Army led by Alien Empera.
*Gomora cameos in episode 12 of Return of Ultraman as a MAT target practice cutout along with Red King.
*Gomora made his first variety show appearance in Gaki no Tsukai's 2012 No Laughing Airport game.
*Gomora can be seen as a parallel to Toho's own Godzilla, similar to Jirahs.
**Gomora gained a mechanical version of himself that starts with "Mecha", that being Mecha Gomora.
**Gomora also gained a "burning" mode in his Reionic Burst form.
**He gained a non-canon "Space" version of himself with Meteor Gomora.
**He gained a video game "Super" version, EX Gomora.
**Fans frequently refer to him as the "Crown Prince of Monsters", a title similar to Godzilla's title of the "King of the Monsters".
*Gomora was originally supposed to appear in Great Decisive Battle! The Super 8 Ultra Brothers as one of the monsters that fought the Ultra Brothers and later combined into Giga Khimaira (Gomora formed a pair of horns and a tail in the original design) but he was scrapped, probably because the monsters' combination was too complex.
*Gomora made an appearance along with fellow Ultraman Series cast members and other famous icons in Hiroyuki Yamaga's two anime short OVAs Daicon III and Daicon IV; like most of the characters featured in the shorts, he is one of the many opponents that a school girl fights against.
*In episode 38 of Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger, a child character named Sayoko carries both a Santa plush and a Gomora plush.
*Gomora's likeness has been used to make other kaiju.
**His head was used twice for the original Marusan kaiju Gothra.
**For the card series Pachimon, Gomora's head was doctored onto Baragon's body to make Terraco.
**Another Pachimon kaiju was created by putting Gomora's head on Peguila's body.
**An unauthorized miniature figurine was created of Gomora, giving him reddish-yellow skin and turning his horns into a helmet. This toy would serve as the inspiration for the Dungeons & Dragons creature known as the Owlbear.
===The 6 Ultra Brothers vs. The Monster Army===
In this film, Gomora was among the Kaiju awakened (along with Astromons, Dustpan, Dorobon, and Tyrant) who aided the Kaiju in attacking before retreating. After Hanuman arrived, Gomora reappeared to aid the Kaiju in battering Hanuman, Gomora encases Hanuman in a crystal sphere after he is beaten down by Tyrant, Astromons, Dustpan, and Dorobon. Shortly after capturing Hanuman, the Ultra Brothers appear, rescuing Hanuman and weakening Gomora, who burrows away for his own safety. After the other Kaiju are killed, Gomora resurfaces and ambushes Ultraman and Hanuman, emitting a rainbow-colored energy field from his head crest to confuse the duo and, as a side effect, cause natural disasters such as flooding. Eventually, the other five Ultra Brothers arrive and rescue Ultraman and Hanuman, using their finisher beams all at once on Gomora, knocking his energy field out of commission. Finally, after Gomora is viciously beaten down by all the other Ultra Brothers, he is sliced in half and killed by Hanuman's Hanu-Crescent Slash. 
====Trivia====
*A Japanese picture book dubbed this incarnation of Gomora as .
*With the exception of Dustpan, Gomora is the only member of the five monsters to have not made his initial debut in Ultraman Taro.
*In this film, Gomora's roar (along with those of all the other Kaiju) differs widely between alternate versions of the film. In the 1974 Thai theatrical version, Gomora uses both Arindo's roar and Bemstar's roar. In the Japanese 6 Ultra Brothers cut, he possesses both Rodan and Megalon's roar. In the 2001 Thai home video versions, Gomora curiously possesses Godzilla's roar.
*The footage used for Gomora's rainbow attack comes from Return of Ultraman, where Ultraman Jack fought Pris-Ma.
*Super Gomora, Hanuman, and other Kaiju from the movie all reappear in Space Warriors 2000, due to the film being made almost entirely of stock footage.
===Ultraman 80===
Gomora reappeared in episode 22 of the series Ultraman 80, as . It was one of the many surface-dwelling creatures that migrated to the underground in order to survive the Ice Age. Gomora's presence was known to the Underground Men, a race of humans that took the same path as Gomora did. As time passed, the heat waves from the surface mutated Gomora into its current form.
When an UNDA secretary raged war against the Underground Men, Gomora II was awakened as a result of destroying their Sun blocker. As UGM failed to even hurt the monster, Takeshi turns into Ultraman 80 soon appeared. Even with Gomora II's seemingly limitless powers wearing him down, 80 didn't give up and used the Succium Beam to kill him with a direct blast to the forehead. Gomora II's body then vanished into the ground.
====Trivia====
*Designer: Osamu Yamaguchi
*Out of all the incarnations of Gomora, Gomora II is the most drastically redesigned. Gomora's body is more bulky compared to his sleeker 1966 design. The rough plate design in his stomach extends beyond it, covering both his arms and neck. His eyes are small and beady, as well as the horn on his snout. He also possesses an extra head crest similar to his main one, but it faces downwards and is more closely attached to Gomora II's neck.
*When a comic of Ultraman 80 was released, the plot of that comic was that of a Gomora was controlled by Alien Baltan.
*Gomora II's roar is modified from Garaking.
*Because Gomora II's ability to shoot finger missiles and energy rings, anime critic Ryusuke Hikawa suspected that it was modified by an unknown force into a cyborg in his authorized report by Bandai.https://web.archive.org/web/20080226020823/http://www.daikaijyu.com/keitaigaku02.html
===Ultraman: The Ultimate Hero===
Gomora appeared in episode 11 of the TV series Ultraman: The Ultimate Hero as .
His role in this series was very reminiscent to how his role was in his original two-part episode appearance. The only differences was that instead of it being in Japan, the events took place in Los Angeles (as Ultraman: The Ultimate Hero was created and produced in the U.S.) Powered Gomora was found in the Andes Mountains as a living fossil, reminiscent of his species the Gomorasaurus. He soon awakened after a rainstorm, then grew and went in search of water. Soon he was found and tranquilized and was being carried off until he awoke, causing him to fall from the carrier onto a cliff. After landing from the fall, he went on a rampage because he was searching for water. After a short and rather flimsy battle against Ultraman Powered, Powered Gomora eventually died from dehydration. Afterward, his body was put on display as a statue in a museum to be remembered.
====Trivia====
*Much like the other Kaiju in the series, Gomora is given a redesign in this series. Unlike most incarnations of Gomora, the horn on the snout of this incarnation points inward and upwards like a regular horn, whereas the other incarnations have it point forward and outwards. The suit also has a forked tongue and the head crest points more upward to the point where they look more like horns. Also unlike his previous incarnations, this Gomora does not display the ability to burrow and does not utilize his tail in combat; however, this could be because of his dehydration.
===Ultraman Max===
Gomora appeared in Ultraman Max episode 21, "Challenge from Underground". This series has a different origin in that Gomoras are wild creatures native to the Republic of Fridnya and naturally two meters tall, growing gigantic as a result of the brutal experiments made by GSTE.
The terrorist organization GSTE smuggled five human-sized Gomoras into Japan 20 years before the present time. GSTE planned to turn the Gomoras into living weapons in order to destroy mankind, believing man to be the main cause of destruction on Earth. Dr. Miyahara's was GSTE's main scientist on the project. He altered one Gomora so that it grew to giant size, as well as making it more aggressive. Tortured during its creation, the Kaiju was imprisoned and chained, but the scientist greatly underestimated his dinosaur’s strength. Gomora broke free of his restraints and killed the terrorist, escaping into the countryside with its smaller brethren.
When sightings of the smaller creatures hit news medias, Team DASH was called in to investigate, and was soon aided by Miyahara's own daughter, wishing to atone for her father’s sins and redeem her family name. It didn’t take long for Gomora to burst forth from the ground and assault the land, but the DASH Birds quickly began their counterattack; however, Gomora was incredibly durable to most of their attacks on it.
Ultraman Max eventually showed up and used the Maxium Sword to cut off Gomora's tail. After destroying its tail, Max finishes Gomora with the Max Galaxy.
====Trivia====
*This Gomora is different from the original incarnation in that not only is its massive size a result of said brutal experiments, but this Gomora has a reddish color to its own body. Anime critic Ryusuke Hikawa in Bandai's review site declare this as .
*In this series Elly states that the Gomora that appears is a subspecies of the original Gomora, having not as wide horns and being almost human-sized.
*After a popularity poll was setup at the time of the series' syndication, Telesdon was originally going to appear in Gomora's episode taking Gomora's place, due to him placing higher on a popularity vote.
===Ultraman Mebius===
Gomora reappeared in Ultraman Mebius episode 42, "An Old Friend's Visit".
In this series, Gomora is seen very briefly prowling on the Johnson Islands before "disappearing" shortly afterwards. In reality, he was absorbed by Gadiba, a black entity-like Terrible-Monster created by Yapool, along with a Red King. After Ultraman Mebius defeated the Red King in a short battle, Gadiba emerged from the Red King's body and transformed the Skull Monster into Gomora. Much like Red King before him, Gomora was now much stronger than average as he attacked and beat down the only slightly weakened Ultraman Mebius with great ease. But he was eventually destroyed by the combined forces of both Crew GUYS and Ultraman Mebius.
====Trivia====
*The Gomora suit from Ultraman Max was reused in Ultraman Mebius. Also, according to Ryusuke Hikawa, the Gomora on the Johnson and Tatara Islands were described as and .
*Before its formal return, Gomora made an early cameo during episode 21 in "Monster Graveyard".
===Mega Monster Battle series and Ultraman Zero media===
In both of these multimedia series, Gomora is introduced as a heroic Battlenizer Monster that belonged to a Reionic named Rei. Together with its master and other monster companions (Litra (S), Eleking and Miclas), Gomora assisted ZAP Spacy in surviving on both of the alien planets Boris and Hammer, fighting against other Reionics and even joining forces with the Ultra Warriors, particularly Ultraman Zero.
===Mega Monster Battle: Ultra Adventure===
50 years after the destruction of Planet Hammer, a young elementary student named Io Mikura came into possession of a Battlenizer that allows him to control his own Gomora.
Additionally all the way to the first chapter, another Gomora was one of the many monsters available in a local arcade game. Io controlled Gomora in against his classmate Dai, who controlled Zetton. Despite their clear differences in strength, Io uses his wits and knowledge of the space dinosaur to his advantage, digging underground and throws it mid-air through an ambush. Io wins the fight, cementing his reputation as a monster geek amongst his friends.
===Ultraman Ginga===
In episode 7, he and Reionic Burst Gomora, along with many different monsters, are seen cheering on Ginga as he fights Dark Galberos.
====Trivia====
*In a special DVD release Ginga the Live! Gomora, along with Alien Godola, and all of Tyrant's monsters are seen as hosts for the special.
===Ultraman Ginga Theater Special: Ultra Monster ☆ Hero Battle Royale!===
Gomora appeared in this special as he was Ultlived by Hikaru Raido to protect Mochiron, who was Ultlived by Misuzu Isurugi, from Gan-Q and Alien Akumania, who were Ultlived by Kenta Watarai and Chigusa Kuno respectively. Gomora did so by slamming both big-eyed monsters against each other. He eventually faced off against his Reionic and EX forms and even Mecha Gomora; all of them were Ultlived by Hikaru's friends. They butted heads and slammed tails against each other until Mecha Gomora fired his weapons on the Gomoras and so all of them decided to team up to defeat him and did so by ripping off his tail. When Yametarenese arrived, all the Gomoras became lazy and sleepy until the new monster left. The true Gomora eventually won by kicking the Reionic Burst Gomora and slamming him into EX Gomora. 
===Ultraman Ginga S===
Gomora reappeared in episode 6 of Ultraman Ginga S, alongside Fire Golza.
Originally part of Alien Chibull Exceller's collection, Gomora's Spark Doll was given to Hiyori where she "Monslived" into the monster to get her revenge on the Victorians for destroying her tribe. Having stolen Sho's Victory Lancer prior, Hiyori/Gomora fought Hikaru/Ultraman Ginga. Before she could finish off Ginga, however, Hiyori heard Shepherdon's cry, then suddenly transformed back and teleported away before Sho could catch her.
Hiyori then returned, already transformed into Gomora, and faced Ginga again. They brawled, with Gomora getting the upper hand by beating Ginga into near submission. Ultraman Ginga then transformed into his Strium form, but as Ginga attempted to defeat Gomora with his Strium Beam, Shepherdon rose to the surface to protect her, taking the blow in the process. Then Fire Golza appeared, Monslived by Android One Zero, to assist Hiyori. Before they could finish off Ginga, Hiyori had a change of heart and fired Gomora's Ultra Oscillation Wave at her. Fire Golza then knocked her down but, after being protected by Ginga and Shepherdon, she got back up and tried to attack Fire Golza with Gomora's Mega-ton Tail, but Fire Golza grabbed it at the last second and tore it clean off. Even though it started to constrict around Fire Golza's neck, she was defeated, but not before throwing the Victory Lancer to Sho. 
===Ultraman X===
In this series, a Spark Doll Gomora was owned by the Oozora family and passed on to Daichi Oozora after his parents' disappearance during the Ultra Flare.
Its consciousness was shared through the creation of Xio's Cyber Kaiju, . However, it refused to participate in battles due to fear for Daichi's safety until Daichi reassured it and finally becomes the first Cyber Kaiju to be materialized. Soon Gomora would be used again, either by Daichi or any other Xio members should they gain it's approval.
Sometime later, the original Gomora was materialized as part of Xio's experiment on Spark Dolls until it fell short into Dark Thunder Energy and mutated into EX Gomora. When Ultraman X returned from his kidnapping, he quickly removes the mutation before Gomora returned to its Spark Doll state.
===Ultraman Orb===
Gomora appeared in episode 2 of Ultraman Orb as a Kaiju Card, used by Jugglus Juggler with his Dark Ring as part of his plan of waking up Maga-Grand King.
===Ultraman Geed===
Gomora's Kaiju Capsule is used by Kei Fukuide as a component of Skull Gomora.
===Ultraman R/B===
An ancient monster sleeping underground, Gomora emerged when Saki Mitsurugi was transferring her life energy into the three Gyros, which she planned to use to solidify Leugocyte's gaseous form. Gomora destroyed part of the Aizen Tech building in its rampage, causing some debris to almost fall on Saki but Katsumi Minato pushes her out of the way. The Gyros then return to Katsumi and Isami Minato, and they could once more transform into Ultraman Rosso and Ultraman Blu. The brothers had a difficult fight against Gomora, but they were interrupted by Saki transforming into Grand King Megalos. Gomora tried firing its Ultra Oscillation Wave at Grand King Megalos, who simply deflected the attack and finished off Gomora via the Megalos Blaster. 
===Ultraman Taiga===
While not appearing in person, the genes of Gomora were fused with the genes of Red King and Belial to recreate Skull Gomora.
===Ultraman Z===
A tunneling company had to pause their job at Mount Goko due to Gomora sleeping in the path and they feared waking up the beast. The GAF planned to move the ancient monster to the deserted Suflan Island. Director Kuriyama decided to take the opportunity to showcase Sevenger's effectiveness to the American staff who were visiting, in order to convince them to provide the funding needed to complete their next SAA, Windom. Haruki Natsukawa piloted Sevenger to help the drones move Gomora. The operation ran smoothly until the pollen in the air triggered Gomora's hay fever, causing it to wake up and rampage. Sevenger fought against Gomora, impressing the American staff. However, its batteries died and Gomora was still on a rampage, so Haruki had to transform into Ultraman Z Alpha Edge, who also had a fair share of trouble against the monster.
Being slammed into the building behind him where the GAF meeting was held, the impact knocked over Yoko Nakashima and exposed the Ultraman Medal. Z managed to convince her to give it to him, and transform into Beta Smash. As the two posed and preened, a hammer wielding mascot sign fell onto the downed Sevenger, signaling a fight. The two giants clashed, with Beta Smash actually knocking Gomora down into a tree, causing the monster to sneeze and cough.
After sneezing into Z's face, the battle resumed with Gomora using a power line to attempt to attack Z, only to be wrestled backwards. Gomora launched its Ultra Oscillation Wave to attempt to gain the upper hand, only for it to be countered by Z's cutting wave. Z flung Gomora into the air and finished it off with the Zestium Upper, causing Gomora to explode into pieces.
Despite Sevenger's failure to stop Gomora, the American staff were impressed enough with its performance to provide the funding for Windom. 
It is assumed that Gomora's remains were later used by Shinya Kaburagi to create the Gomora Kaiju Medal. He later uses it to transform into Skull Gomora. 
Gomora later appeared in a flashback experienced by Haruki after the first fight with Grigio Raiden while he reflected on the guilt and remorse he felt for killing it, along with the male Red King, Neronga, Guigass and Peguila. 
====Trivia====
*Gomora's appearance is similar to Sodom from Dyna who was named after the other city destroyed by God in the Holy Bible. Both suffered from sneezing, hay fever in Gomora's case and a cold in Sodom's, which caused them to go on their rampages.
===Ultraman Trigger: New Generation Tiga===
Gomora, along with Telesdon, Pagos, and Arstron, were awoken from their slumber when the Eternity Core became unstable after Carmeara used its power to transform into Megalothor. 
===Ultraman Decker===
Gomora, a powerful but normally docile Kaiju, was awakened from underground and displayed aggressive behavior, rampaging a city for an unknown reason. GUTS-Select dispatched to fight the monster, attacking from both the ground and air as GUTS Falcon and GUTS Hawk severed its tail. Unfortunately, it was then when the Sphere Soldiers arrived and assimilated with Gomora, rewriting the monster's genetic information into .フィギュア王 No.295 page 19 Regenerating its lost tail, Sphere-Gomora attacks its opponents with its new set of abilities, forcing Kanata Asumi to transform into Ultraman Decker while protecting a nearby hospital that had not been completely evacuated. Decker struggled with his opponent at first until he changed into Strong Type, overpowering the monster with brute strength and receiving help from Nursedessei during the two giants' beam struggle. Decker then finished the fight with the Dolnade Breaker, sending the monster midair before it exploded. 
Another Sphere-Gomora appeared along with Sphere-Red King and Sphere-Neomegas, having been restored by groups of coalescing Spheres, when Agams used the Terraphaser to call the Spheres to his side to prepare for the arrival of the Mother Spheresaurus. The three monsters easily trounced Decker until he barely managed to finish them off all at once using both the Ultra Dual Sword and the Decker Shield Calibur. 
====Trivia====
*Designer: Masayuki Gotohhttps://twitter.com/aws49T8EvYnPX7U/status/1550647210450173954
*Sphere-Gomora's costume is created by modifying Skull Gomora, converting elements pertaining to Red King and Belial towards those of the Spheres' aesthetics.
*The 295th volume of Figure-Oh acknowledges Sphere-Gomora as the first instance of a Sphere Synthetic Monster on Earth, despite the previously appearing Spheresaurus having a similar origin.
*In the opening of Ultraman Decker, the titular Ultra fought against a normal Gomora with Strong Type, despite the fact that, in the actual episode, the monster had already been in its Sphere-infected state by the time Decker appeared.
===Ultraman: Rising===
Although Gomora does not appear in person, his biological data is stored in the KDF database, suggesting that he was defeated by the KDF in a previous battle.
In the conversation between Ken Sato and Professor Sato, it is mentioned that Gomora attacked Shirokanedai more than 20 years ago, and Professor Sato personally transformed into Ultraman to fight it.
====Trivia====
*Gomora was originally scheduled to appear in the opening sequence of the film, but this was ultimately cut.

Unlike other Ultra Fight kaiju, Gomora only reappeared in a single episode. He appeared in episode 196, named "Monster Corpse Yard", which was also the final episode. He battled Woo in the "Monster Corpse Yard". After he defeated his opponent, he simply vanished. 
====Trivia====
*Gomora looks a little different in Ultra Fight. He is green rather than brown and has four fingers on each hand instead of five.
*The "Monster Corpse Yard" was actually Tsuburaya Production's costume warehouse.

Gomora reappeared in episode 95 where he showed up on the hills after Gudon was defeated to take on Redman, foreshadowing another fight for the alien hero in the future which then happened in the following episode which consisted of the usual grapples, throws, punches, kicks, and chops after Redman teleported to the top of hill and snuck up from behind. Gomora was eventually defeated with a strong, double kick to the snout.
At the end of episode 98, Gomora made his final appearance on the show as he reappeared alongside Red Killer after Redman defeated Gudon and Draculas and in the following episode, they used their telekinesis powers to prevent his Red Arrow from killing them and dropped it on the ground but Redman teleported behind the monsters and dragged them by the tails. Both monsters had the upper hand against the alien hero due to their combat prowess and advantage in numbers but Redman never gave up and pulled through by slashing both monsters with his Red Knives, killing them in the process and ending the seemingly-endless wave of monsters.
====Trivia==== 
*Unlike the majority of Kaiju in the series, Gomora's suit was not re-used from Ultraman. Instead, it was reused from the Gomora suit that was used during stage shows and attractions.
