==Summary==
 is a kaiju that first appeared in the 2002 Godzilla film, Godzilla Against Mechagodzilla.
It is the fourth incarnation of Godzilla to appear in the Millennium series of films, the only Millennium series incarnation to appear in more than one film, and the eighth onscreen incarnation of the character overall. This Godzilla first appeared in 1999, 45 years after the first Godzilla was killed by Daisuke Serizawa's Oxygen Destroyer. His attack led the JSDF to begin arming itself against another attack. The JSDF salvaged the original Godzilla's skeleton from the sea floor and converted it into a bio-robot named Kiryu, which was sent into battle against Godzilla in 2003. Godzilla's roar reawakened the spirit of the first Godzilla within Kiryu, causing it to go berserk and turn against the JSDF. When Kiryu was repaired and battled Godzilla again, the two monsters fought to a draw and Godzilla was expelled from Japan. However, this Godzilla was attracted to Japan again by the presence of the first Godzilla's remains, and engaged in another battle with Kiryu the following year, this time with Mothra and her twin larvae aiding Kiryu. Godzilla was severely wounded by Kiryu, but rather than finish off his organic counterpart, Kiryu became possessed by the original Godzilla's spirit once again and sank itself with Godzilla in the Japan Trench, saving Godzilla's life and taking him far away from humanity.

Stamina: Superhuman (Has shown to be able to run and fight for long periods) | Superhuman
Range: Tens of Meters by virtue of his sheer size, Hundreds of Meters with ranged attacks
Standard Equipment: Teeth, claws and tail
Intelligence: Average (Should have comparable intelligence to the original Godzilla), Animalistic when berserk (In the Kiryu Saga Godzilla did not display much of a defined personality and was depicted as a destructive force of nature acting primarily on instinct. It is suggested that a primary reason for Godzilla's rampages is the fact that he is attracted by Kiryu, who contains the remains of another Godzilla. This Godzilla does not appear to become violent or attack unless he is attacked first, after which he will lash out and brutally strike back against his enemies)
Weaknesses: None notable | After the climactic battle of Godzilla Against Mechagodzilla, Godzilla was left with a large chest wound that didn't fully heal, and became scarred over the events of the following film. This wound became a weak point in Godzilla. In addition, this Godzilla displays very little strategy or complex thought while fighting, and appears to rely mainly on animal cunning and instinct.
Feats:
*Caused huge amounts of damage to Multiple Cities and Settlements
*Fought the Military numerous times
*Fought Kiry and Mothra (Kiryu Saga)
Notable Attacks and Techniques:

|-|Atomic breath=
</tabber> 
*: As with past incarnations, the Kiryu Saga Godzilla's trademark ability is his atomic breath. As he charges the beam, Godzilla's dorsal fins flash and glow blue, after which Godzilla launches a superheated blue beam from his mouth. This Godzilla's atomic breath is extremely powerful, capable of leveling entire city blocks or destroying JSDF vehicles upon impact. Even Kiryu proved extremely vulnerable to Godzilla's atomic breath, as direct hits were able to knock him out of commission several times.
