**Godzilla** (ゴジラ *Gojira*) is a Titan who appeared in *Godzilla: Lord of the Galaxy*.

Godzilla is the most known Titan out of all, and one of the most powerful creatures on Earth. He spends most of his time in his underwater cave, that has entrance to The Underground world - home of all known Earth Titans. Despite being an aquatic creature, Godzilla is surprisingly fast on land, able to run or even jump. This Titan, unlike his father, Dagon, seems to be friendly towards humans, although he may be very aggressive towards hostile creatures like Jinshin-Mushi. Being last member of his species, Godzilla became not only new king of monsters, but also humanity's savior and guardian of Earth.

### Quick Answers

**Who is Godzilla?**

 Godzilla, also known as Gojira, King of the Monsters, and God of Destruction, is a giant, prehistoric monster with multiple continuities from 1954 and beyond. He has appeared in multiple films, including Godzilla: King of the Monsters and Godzilla vs. Kong in 2019 and 2021 respectively.

**Why Godzilla 1998 is not Godzilla?**

 The 1998 American version of Godzilla, which was released by TriStar Pictures, is not recognized as the official Godzilla by Japanese audiences. This is because the 1998 version of Godzilla was created by nuclear fallout on French Polynesia, while marine iguanas, which are indigenous to the Galápagos Islands, were used as the basis for the monster. Furthermore, the 1998 version of Godzilla reproduces asexually, and is therefore classified as a male creature despite this trait. This differs from previous incarnations of the character, which are all officially recognized as male creatures. Additionally, the 1998 version of Godzilla also has a different appearance and character traits than those of traditional Godzilla incarnations.

**What is the original version of Godzilla?**

 The original version of Godzilla is a 1954 Japanese kaiju film directed by Ishirō Honda, featuring special effects by Eiji Tsuburaya. It tells the story of a prehistoric amphibious sea creature mutated by nuclear radiation into a giant monster known as the King of the Monsters. This version was intended as a serious allegory warning of the horrors brought by nuclear weapons. The film stars Akira Takarada, Momoko Kōchi, Akihiko Hirata, and Takashi Shimura. A 2006 release of this version also included the 1956 American Godzilla, King of the Monsters! version.

**What animal is Godzilla based on?**

 Godzilla is a hybrid of several different animals, including a Tyrannosaurus Rex, an Iguanodon, and a Stegosaurus. His movements and fighting style are based on bears and komodo dragons, while his appearance is based on a gigantic reptile with rough, bumpy scales, a long powerful tail, and bone-colored scutes. Godzilla is also a carnivore that preys on animals as large as or smaller than itself, along with feasting on carrion. The original Godzilla is believed to have been a Godzillasaurus, whose underwater habitat was destroyed by a hydrogen bomb test.

## Name

Godzilla's Japanese name, *Gojira* (ゴジラ), comes from a combination of the Japanese approximation of "gorilla" (ゴリラ *Gorira*), and *kujira* (クジラ), the Japanese word for "whale." The name is said to have been chosen to represent the size and strength of both animals.

## Design

In Episode 1, Godzilla has light gray skin with a white underbelly, and its body structure more resemble that of Zilla's. This is given to the impression that Godzilla can actually run very fast. He has a big, elongated head with a row of small spikes on top of it. Godzilla has small ears and yellow eyes with red pupils. He has gills on the sides of his neck. His arms are long and thin, with his hands having 4 digits. Godzilla's legs resemble those of theropod dinosaur. He has 3 rows of sharp purple dorsal plates and spikes near the end of his tail.

For Episode 2 and after, Godzilla had gotten a heavy redesign from Episode 1. His head is now smaller and more square-shaped, with larger nostrils and rather dragon-like ears. His lower jaw has small spikes and more pronounced chin. Godzilla is now much more muscular in build, with shorter arms and longer tail. His neck now has small spiky dewlap. Godzilla's dorsal plates are thicker, with middle row being visible from a side view.

DinoMania said that the design was supposed to reflect the TriStar Godzilla, MonsterVerse Godzilla and the Millennium Godzilla.

## Origins

Godzilla is said to be born in the 1970s and spends time mostly in his underground cave, which leads into the Underground world, where all the Titans are said to exist. After his father, Dagon, died, he took over the role as King of the Monsters, maintaining balance to the planetary ecosystem.

## History

### *Chapter One - The Arrival*

Godzilla was seen attacking Shizouka after the humans have made contact with the Xiliens where he was seen destroying the city. The EDF launched planes and cannons to fire him with cadmium missiles, but to avail. They tried to shoot down Godzilla with Masers, with the bigger Maser Cannon managing to cut Godzilla's skin, and with their shield, could not be damaged badly by Godzilla's atomic breath. Suddenly, Godzilla let out an Electromagnetic Pulse which disabled the Maser Cannon's shields and masers. The planes had the same issue, with their weapons and shields out of commission as well. Godzilla shot a plane out of the sky and torn the larger Maser Cannon with his hands. Suddenly, another Titan entered the city.

Anguirus confronted Godzilla and after a stand-off, he blew Anguirus off-guard with his atomic breath. Anguirus, realizing something was wrong, fought Godzilla head on. With support from the EDF, Anguirus was able to wear down Godzilla well. However, he couldn't take him out, and after a wrong move, Godzilla managed to bite his neck and make him bleed.

A UFO (the one that contacted the EDF) appeared above the city and interrupted the fight. It supposedly scared away Godzilla with a ray. The Xiliens then told the humans that Monster Zero will emerge and destroy the world, and Godzilla becoming aggressive is the first sign of his awakening.

Two scientists, Tom and Polly, have "telepathically" arrived at Infant Island, at which the Shobijin said that the Godzilla that attacked the city was not actually Godzilla; it was an impostor. The real Godzilla was trapped inside the UFO for 2 weeks. To make things better for the humans, there was no radiation in the area where Godzilla supposedly blasted his atomic breath, as the Godzilla species cannot survive without absorbing and exhaling radiation.

After the Xiliens have been exposed, the EDF launched an attack to destroy the UFO. They have been able to dent the hull of the ship, but after their energy shields where deployed, they couldn't do anything. It was only until Rodan came to the rescue. Rodan charged up his Asteroid Dash and rammed the UFO head-on. This way able to leak out the incapacitating gas that Godzilla breathing in and woke him up.

Godzilla freed himself from his binds with his Atomic breath. After the Xilien master said to drop Godzilla, Rodan caught him and safely landed him onto the ground. Godzilla, Rodan, Mothra and Anguirus are now together again, with Godzilla letting one last roar of the day.

### *Chapter Two - The Impostor (part one)*

A flashback to 1990 shows that Godzilla was being chased by MUTO Prime. He used small crevices of a tunnel system to outrun the larger Titan. However, he was cornered in a wall, with his atomic breath not fazing MUTO Prime. And then, Dagon came to save him. Dagon and Prime clashed, with Godzilla trying to aid him, with his partner, Rozan, by his side too. Just then, the military launched the Oxygen Destroyer. While Dagon managed to escape, MUTO Prime was weakened by the weapon, and passed out after digging a hole to nearby cave. And so, Dagon went up to Godzilla and gave him a little pat on the head.

In present day, Godzilla woke up from his slumber and he, Mothra and Anguirus worked a plan together to lure out the impostor. And so, Godzilla fought it at sea, overpowering it and withstanding the hits it unleashed. It finally pulverized the fake skin away with a nuclear pulse. This revealed the metallic Mechagodzilla, and Godzilla snarled at it, as it initiated in a battle to the death.

### *Chapter Two - The Impostor (part two)*

Mechagodzilla fully unravels its arsenal at Godzilla, and starts by cutting his ankle using its tail cutter. However, Godzilla's near-instantaneous regeneration saves his from being limped. Mechagodzilla uses its jet boosters to do a dive bomb at Godzilla, with Mechagodzilla missing, and when coming back for a second course, Mechagodzilla gets knocked aside by Godzilla's tail swing. Godzilla fires his atomic ray, aiming for Mechagodzilla's head. An EMP unleashed by the robot disables Godzilla's breath, angering him greatly. Godzilla repeatedly stomps Mechagodzilla, who in response blasts the monster with Crimson Barrage and Heat Ray. Mechagodzilla extends his arm blades and charges at Godzilla, who dodges his thrusts and knocks him down.

     Mechagodzilla gets back up, dodging Godzilla's stomp, fires his Plasma Blast at the monster, slashing him with his tail blade and piercing his chest with blades. Unleashing his Crimson Barrage, Mechagodzilla hides in red smoke, preparing for a quick, sudden burst. He punches Godzilla in his face, knocking him against the ground. Godzilla gets his hand pierced by robotic Titan as he gets up. He grabs Mechagodzilla's hand and throws him across. Mechagodzilla launched his missiles at Godzilla, piercing his skin and blasting off chunks of his flesh, making him roar in pain. After impaling Godzilla's chest with blades and electrocuting him, Mechagodzilla kicks the Titan and uses his Crimson Barrage. As Godzilla heals his wounds, he noticed Mechagodzilla in the sky dive bombing at him. Godzilla dodges right before the impact, and their fight continues. At one point Mechagodzilla managed to coil his tail around Godzilla's leg and carry him to the sky, delivering several blows midair. During his fall, Godzilla charged up atomic breath and aimed it at the ground, slowing himself down and landing safely. Mechagodzilla charged his Crimson Buster and fired it at Godzilla. The monster dodged the blast. Devastating explosion occurs, blasting a large portion of Odo Island and surrounding Godzilla with dense red smoke.

## Abilities

### Atomic Breath

Godzilla possesses his trademark **Atomic Breath**, also called **Nuclear Breath** or **Atomic Ray**. A blue glow runs up his dorsal plates, and he unleashes the attack. The Atomic Breath has a long range and is extremely hot, reaching temperature of 600,000 degrees Kelvin. This attack is capable of causing large explosions and severely wounding some monsters with lower categories. It also possesses pinpoint accuracy, demonstrated when Godzilla easily blasts Mechagodzilla out of the sky with it. Godzilla first seen using it when breaking himself free of his mouth binds and destroying an Xilien turret. A unique trait for this Godzilla is that he can also exhale atomic energy through his nostrils.

#### Supercharged Atomic Breath

A stronger variation of Godzilla's standard atomic breath that was first shown in episode 2 was his **Supercharged Atomic Breath**, also called **Hypercharged Atomic Breath** or **Blue Spiral Heat Ray**. Instead of charging up several times and performing his regular attacks, Godzilla can use all of his energy in one incredibly powerful blast, which also means that he can't use this ability much at once, as he'll simply exhaust himself. Godzilla can use this ability more when he absorbs large amounts of radiation. This supercharged beam of energy reaches a temperature of 12,000,000 degrees Celsius and was shown to be powerful enough to destroy Mechagodzilla in a single blast.

### Nuclear Pulse

In addition to his atomic breath, Godzilla can also emit atomic energy in all directions from every inch of his body in a short-range attack dubbed the **Nuclear Pulse**. He first seen using it to incinerate Mechagodzilla's fake skin. Nuclear pulse creates a large crater and destroys any buildings and rocks in its blast area. This attack can blast away other Titans and severely wound them, if they have lower category. Godzilla can also charge up certain parts of his body, like fists or tail, to perform a more powerful version of his physical attacks.

### Physical Strength

Godzilla possesses incredible strength. He was able to break out his binds after melting his face bind and hand binds. Godzilla easily overpowers Fake Godzilla during their fight underwater, and could also physically overcome Mechagodzilla in multiple occasions. Godzilla could also use his dorsal plates as a secondary physical weapon, using them as a way to pierce opponents at his rear. His tail is also a potent weapon, shown to knock aside a high-speed flying Mechagodzilla.

### Durability

Godzilla survived a direct hit from an Xilien laser turret and blew it up after with his atomic breath. Godzilla also walked away mostly unscathed from Mechagodzilla's arsenal, tanking its Crimson Barrage, Plasma Blasts and Crimson Buster doing minimal damage to him, with only its blades, tail cutter and finger-toe missiles doing enough damage to make him bleed.

### Amphibiousness

Godzilla is an adept swimmer and mostly spends his time in his undersea cavern. He is also able to breathe underwater as well. Godzilla is able to travel thousands of miles in the ocean without displaying any signs of fatigue, and is measured to reach swimming speeds up to 1145 knots/1318 mph, although it should be noted that his average speed is much slower.

### Speed and Agility

Godzilla has been shown to be fast and agile. He can run at speeds up to 550 miles per hour, and can possibly run even faster. During test runs and drafts for LotG, Godzilla has been showing sprinting with a horizontal, Zilla-like stance.

### Flight

Godzilla has limited flight capabilities. By using his Atomic Breath and aiming it at the ground, he stopped himself from falling, which also caused him to lift off slightly.

### Intelligence

Godzilla possesses almost human-like intelligence and is capable of abstract thought and communicating with other kaiju.

### Heightened senses

Godzilla and his species posses a sixth sense that allows them to detect the life energy around themselves, being able to feel the presence of other Titans and determine whether they're dead or alive. They are also capable of sensing potential threats to the planet or its ecosystem.

In addition to the sixth sense, Godzilla has great sense of hearing and smell, night vision and the ability to detect sources of radiation.

### Radiation Absorption

Godzilla needs his radiation to survive, like all other Godzilla incarnations. He absorbs it as his primary energy source and exhales a chunk with his atomic breath or his nuclear pulse. It can also increase his regeneration speed.

### Regeneration

Godzilla was shown to have a potent healing factor, able to regrow lost limbs and ripped out organs, if his spinal cord is intact. He regenerated his brain after it was pierced by Mechagodzilla in a matter of minutes. Smaller injuries can take just a few seconds to heal. Godzilla's regeneration speed increases while being in rage or after absorbing more radiation. This ability has its own limitations, as Godzilla still needs energy to heal, and with him being exhausted it will take him longer to recover. Godzilla also can't regenerate after being blown into pieces, and he becomes vulnerable when a certain part of his spinal cord, located in his chest, gets damaged.

### Weaknesses

Godzilla and his species are weak to cadmium, the element which drains and neutralizes radiation, as it was used to weaken Godzilla's father, Dagon, in 1984.

A strong EMP released by MUTOs and Mechagodzilla can prevent Godzilla from using his Atomic Breath and Nuclear Pulse, however it has no effect while Godzilla is in his supercharged state. DinoMania mentioned that this ability disrupts the bio-electrical sparks in Godzilla's body that help him release atomic energy.

Godzilla's spinal cord is also a weakness. If it is severely damaged, he can no longer heal and fight back properly. He also becomes much more vulnerable to attacks and might die from injuries that he normally would be able to heal from. Godzilla can regenerate the spinal cord back, but it will take him a while to do so, unless he'll absorb extreme amounts of radiation.

## Trivia

* There is a notable difference when Godzilla and Fake Godzilla fires his Atomic breath. When Fake Godzilla shoots his breath, his entire dorsal plates lighten up. But when the real Godzilla uses it, only "lines and cracks" of his plates light up.
* When DinoMania first released his profile on Deviant-Art, she changed "Ancient" type to "Radioactive", because "1) Godzilla isn't the only radioactive Titan. 2) Godzilla's parents are in fact ancient but Godzilla himself was born in 70s". This means that Godzilla is much younger than most of his official incarnations.
* The design alternation for Godzilla after episode 1 changed up his physical stats (height, weight, etc).
	+ The old design had a length of 252 meters and had a weight of 74,000 metric tons. The new one has a length of 270 meters and a weight of 78,000 metric tons.
* Godzilla have fought Jinshin-Mushi, like how Legendary Godzilla fought MUTOs in 2014 *Godzilla* movie, and MUTO Prime in the comic novel, Godzilla: Aftershock.
* According to DinoMania, if Godzilla were the size of human (180 cm tall), he'd weigh 343 kg.
* Godzilla's regeneration was inspired by a similar ability Titans from *Attack on Titan* series possess.
