Manda (Final Wars)

Manda made a brief appearance in Godzilla: Final Wars, battling the Gotengo underwater.
== Design ==
The Manda from Godzilla: Final Wars has a small hood behind his head similar to that of a cobra, and four long barbs extending from the underside of his body. He also has spikes on his arms and legs, and a forked snake-like tongue rather than the rounded tongue possessed by previous incarnations.
== Origins ==
Manda's origins in Godzilla: Final Wars are unknown.
== History ==
==== Godzilla: Final Wars ====
In 20XX, Manda attacked Normandy, causing the Earth Defense Force to deploy the Gotengo to engage him in the English Channel. At first, Manda was able to constrict himself around the Gotengo and pull the warship further and further into the depths of the water, severely damaging it. However, the crew spotted an underwater volcano and charged into it, with Manda stuck on their ship. Unable to withstand the heat, Manda was forced to uncoil himself and swam away. The Gotengo managed to get out of the volcano, but Manda charged at the ship. The Gotengo turned around 180 degrees and fired the Absolute Zero Cannon to freeze the weakened Manda, and then rammed into him with its powerful drill, breaking him into pieces and killing him in the process.
== Abilities ==
=== Constriction ===
In Godzilla: Final Wars, this constriction ability is known called Binding Breaker (バインディング・ブリーカー Baindingu Burīkā). It was effective against the Gotengo, and may have crushed the ship if the heat from an underwater volcano had not forced Manda to release his grip.
=== Amphibiousness ===
Although he is slow on land, Manda can swim very fast and can breathe while submerged in water.
=== Physical abilities ===
Along with his other melee techniques, Manda will also bite opponents, such as when he attempted to bite through Gotengo’s hull in Godzilla: Final Wars.
=== Weaknesses ===
Manda is vulnerable to being frozen, which is how the Gotengo defeated him in Godzilla: Final Wars.
