## Summary

**Mechagodzilla** (**メカゴジラ *Mekagojira***), given the name **Super Mechagodzilla** (**スーパーメカゴジラ *Sūpā Mekagojira***) when attached with the Garuda, is a United Nations mecha that appeared in the 1993 Godzilla film, *Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II*.

Like its Showa counterpart, this Mechagodzilla was constructed specifically to destroy Godzilla, however this time it was built by the human military organization G-Force in order to defend Japan from Godzilla. Constructed using components salvaged from Mecha-King Ghidorah, Mechagodzilla was launched into battle against Godzilla when he came ashore in Japan searching for BabyGodzilla. Mechagodzilla failed to halt Godzilla and was badly damaged in the battle, leading G-Force to begin numerous repairs and modifications on the mech. Mechagodzilla was outfitted with a specialized anti-Godzilla system dubbed G-Crusher, and was given the ability to attach to the aircraft Garuda. The repaired Mechagodzilla was deployed to battle Fire Rodan, who stole a container holding BabyGodzilla and his surrogate mother. Mechagodzilla defeated Rodan, and began a second battle with Godzilla once he came ashore as well. Mechagodzilla nearly killed Godzilla, but Rodan sacrificed himself to revive Godzilla, giving him the power needed to destroy Mechagodzilla. Despite Mechagodzilla's failure, G-Force would build another anti-Godzilla mech, MOGUERA, the following year in *Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla*.

## Arsenal

**Notable Attacks/Techniques:**

* **Mega Buster**: Mechagodzilla can fire a rainbow-colored beam from its mouth known as the **Mega Buster** (**メガ・バスター *Mega Basutā***), which is equal in power to Godzilla's atomic breath. The Mega Buster can only be fired for a short period of time before overheating, demonstrated when it overheats and becomes unusable following a 10-second beam lock with Godzilla's atomic breath.

* **Laser Cannon**: Mechagodzilla can fire two yellow-colored **Laser Cannons** (**レーザーキャノン *Rēzā Kyanon***) from its eyes. Mechagodzilla becomes unable to use its right Laser Cannon after Fire Rodan damages it with its beak, although the eye is restored after Mechagodzilla combines with Garuda to form Super Mechagodzilla.

* **Shock Anchor**: Mechagodzilla possesses two **Shock Anchor** (**ショックアンカー *Shokku Ankā***) harpoons built into its arms, which it can shoot directly into an enemy to release a crippling electrical charge. The Shock Anchors were effective against Godzilla in the monsters' first battle, electrocuting Godzilla to the point he was foaming at the mouth. However, Godzilla's internal radiation somehow allowed him to reverse the flow of electricity back into Mechagodzilla, which set Mechagodzilla's engine on fire and disabled the mech. When Mechagodzilla was repaired, the Shock Anchors were upgraded and converted into the more powerful G-Crusher system.

* **G-Crusher**: The **G-Crusher** (**Ｇクラッシャー *Jī Kurasshā***) is an advanced version of the Shock Anchor developed to destroy Godzilla's secondary brain and cripple him from the waist down. It releases a powerful electrical discharge into the opponent's body which exceeds the voltage of the Shock Anchor. The G-Crusher required the guidance of the psychic Miki Saegusa in order to pinpoint and target the exact location of Godzilla's secondary brain. The G-Crusher completely destroyed Godzilla's secondary brain and crippled him, and nearly allowed Super Mechagodzilla to kill Godzilla before Fire Rodan intervened.

* **Paralyzer Missiles**: Mechagodzilla can fire **Paralyzer Missiles** (**パラライズ・ミサイル *Pararaizu Misairu*, lit. *Paralyze Missile***) from two three-cell rocket launchers on its shoulders. 60 Paralyzer Missiles can be loaded at a single time. These missiles were used to stun Godzilla during the monsters' first battle before Mechagodzilla used its Shock Anchors against Godzilla.

* **Tranquilizer Missiles**: In addition to its Paralyzer Missiles, Mechagodzilla can fire **Tranquilizer Missiles** (**トランキライザー・ミサイル *Torankiraizā Misairu***) laced with anesthetics and tranquilizers from ports on both of its hips. Super Mechagodzilla used these missiles to stun Godzilla before targeting and attacking his secondary brain with the G-Crusher.

* **Plasma Grenade**: Mechagodzilla's strongest weapon is the **Plasma Grenade** (**プラズマ・グレネイド *Purazuma Gureneido***). Mechagodzilla absorbs Godzilla's atomic breath with the Diamond Coating on its armor and converts it into plasma energy, which is stored and amplified in a port in Mechagodzilla's abdomen before being fired back at a target with even greater force. Because the Plasma Grenade generates a tremendous amount of heat, it cannot be fired continuously and must be treated with an extremely strong coolant. If Mechagodzilla's Diamond Coating melts, it will be unable to absorb plasma from enemy attacks and use the Plasma Grenade. The Plasma Grenade is tremendously powerful, capable of knocking Godzilla down or mortally wounding Fire Rodan in a single blow.

* **Hover Attack**: Mechagodzilla can use its jets to suspend itself in the air and attack enemies with its weapons from a distance in a maneuver known as the **Hover Attack** (**ホバーアタック *Hobā Atakku***). This is a very effective attack for Mechagodzilla, as it lacks maneuverability and effective close-range combat abilities. After merging with Garuda and becoming Super Mechagodzilla, Mechagodzilla's flight abilities are improved, and it uses the Hover Attack in conjunction with the G-Crusher.

* **Diamond Coating**: Mechagodzilla is protected by an armor plating made from an alloy called NT-1, which is covered in an artificial **Diamond Coating** (**ダイヤモンド・コーティング *Daiyamondo Kōtingu***), the same coating used for the Super X2's Fire Mirror. This Diamond Coating renders Godzilla and Fire Rodan's heat beams completely harmless, and also allows Mechagodzilla to absorb energy from the beams to power its Plasma Grenade. However, extremely high temperatures like those emitted by Godzilla's nuclear pulse after absorbing Fire Rodan's energy, can cause the Diamond Coating to melt, disabling the Plasma Grenade and leaving Mechagodzilla vulnerable to Godzilla's Uranium Heat Ray. However, Mechagodzilla's armor allowed it to take repeated hits from this beam, which reached a temperature of 1.2 million degrees Celsius, before it was finally knocked out of commission.

* **High Power Maser Beam Cannon**: As Super Mechagodzilla, Mechagodzilla can utilize Garuda's **High Power Maser Beam Cannons** (**ハイパワーメーサービームキャノン *Hai Pawā Mēsā Bīmu Kyanon***), which are powerful long-range Maser Cannons. Super Mechagodzilla used these beams as part of its Hover Attack during the final battle with Godzilla.
