#GODZILLA Planet Eater

[faithslayer202]

I wonder if #Toho will bring back #Zilla / #ジラ?

They brought him back in #GODZILLAMonsterApocalypse / #GODZILLA怪獣黙示録 and used his fertility & numbers as a threat.

I would like Patrick Tatopoulos unique monster to come back in the #Godzilla / #ゴジラ Universe with new abilities & design features.

Description of Zilla from the #GodzillaAnime Trilogy Timeline book; #ゴジラ怪獣黙示録. "If you leave one young one alive, no, if you leave just an egg behind, it'll hatch and reproduce all over again" and, "the big ones are dangerous, but the young ones were more troublesome. They're intelligent and act in herds. The young ones act as decoys for the tanks while the adults attack from the rooftops."

omg I love my interdimensional and extradimensional yellow food like beings I want to squish and bite a piece of them

[crusaderguy]

Simply built different, and in my opinion, FinalGoji is peak Godzilla. I just love when Godzilla is an anti hero.

@hrodvitnon Ok this was interesting and I had to draw it! Loving the idea of a Ghidorah with a "space form" being like a mix of Planet Eater Ghidorah and Xeno'jiiva, and an "earth form" being like a mix of KOTM Ghidorah and Safi'jiiva, perhaps after absorbing Godzilla's DNA to adapt to the planet's surface conditions.

Since people are talking Monster Hunter here I just had an interesting idea. One boss there is the alien dragon Xeno'jiiva, that later matures into a far more "normal-looking" dragon Safi'jiiva. And for some bizarre probably coincidental reason, Xeno'jiiva looks a little like the Anime! Ghidorah while Safi'jiiva looks a bit like Monsterverse! Ghidorah.

Some people complained that Monsterverse Ghidorah "didn't look alien enough", what if he actually did look like so in prehistoric times, and his more "traditional dragon" appearance was due to him adapting to our world and coming to look more like an earthly creature? Or maybe even absorbing Godzilla's DNA hence his similar features?

Y'know, if memory serves me correctly, a similar idea was proposed in an ask from many decades and centuries ago that might've involved old King Ghidorah concept art? It's been long enough ago that I don't exactly remember the art that was used as an example, but yeah, the idea was that Ghidorah looked more obviously Eldritch Alien monster but changed itself to look more conventionally earth dragon-like, in a sorta Taking On A Form You Are Comfortable With Or At Least Willing To Kneel Before And Worship As a Glorious Golden God Monster.

Gigan design for a Godzilla au im working on !!

Ramblings about him below cut

OK SO Gigan in this au is a member of a species of Giant bird things called Quetgarons that hunt the M space hunter nebula aliens (but in my au they’re just called the Star Bugs).

The climate Gigan’s specific subspecies lived was a more desert-y climate full of sand. So they were very good at digging since the Star Bugs usually dig their cities underground. Their long beaks and tongues also help to snatch up whatever they can get. Quetgarons are far from picky eaters, they perfer organic food, but they’ll eat whatever they can swallow, and recently have even been seen eating metal. They need whatever nutrition they can to keep their massive (generally 60m+ tall) bodies going. And the appendage on their tail is meant to look like their beaks and is used both to fool prey and to grab things.

With the help of a certain other group of Aliens, the Star Bugs created Gigan by capturing a nearly dead Quetgaron and bringing it back to life using certain modifications. A lot of modifications were added to him, like his entire skeleton being reinforced with metal and other materials due to the gravity on earth being greater than their own planet (and also made him a bit taller for shits and giggles). All parts of him that originally had structures made of cartilage (or the similar material they use) are now also coated in metal to make them resistant to Earth’s weapons since originally, they were weak points. Quetgarons have eyelids that cover most of their eyes in order to avoid sand and other gunk getting into them, but these were removed on Gigan and was given a long red visor to protect his eyes instead.

Before Gigan was sent to Earth, he was purposefully starved for a while in order to make sure he’d fuck up as much stuff as possible on Earth. He is the 40th kaiju this earth has ever documented, followed by 41st being Megalon who popped up shortly after Gigan’s arrival. They fucked a LOT of stuff before Jet Jaguar and Mothra were able to take them both down. Gigan now primarily resides in Earth’s deserts reminiscent of his home, waiting for the day where he can fuck shit up again.

He’s just a funny dude that causes destruction on a mass scale and eats people. We love him for that

It is! At 4 months and 26 days, the tiny gap between Godzilla Minus One and Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire beats the longtime record holder of 5 months and 21 days between Godzilla (1954) and Godzilla Raids Again. Godzilla: The City on the Edge of Battle and Godzilla: The Planet Eater ALMOST beat the record back in 2018, but lost by literally one day. xD

All Godzilla (and most King Kong) Movies: Personal Tier List

When Godzilla Minus One came out, knowing that Godzilla x Kong was coming out only four months later, a friend and I decided to part take in the long journey of watching every theatrical Godzilla film to date, including the original King Kong, King Kong Escapes, and King Kong 2005 to have a little history leading into Kong: Skull Island.
