       Gigan is a cyborg kaiju, first appeared in Godzilla vs. Gigan (1972). It was a "space dinosaur", until it got turned into a cyberg by the aliens.                                                                Gigan (Godzilla vs. Gigan)       Gigan, like King Ghidorah, is an alien. It's also possible they've come from the same planet. So as you can guess, it's one of his allies. It's being controlled by a cult in the movies (like Ghidorah). It first came across Godzilla in Godzilla vs. Gigan, where he fought against Godzilla and Anguirus by Ghidorah in his side. It's one of the oldest enemies of Godzilla as well. It can be considered as the most deadly enemy of Godzilla.       Gigan is a terrifying creature, equipped with deadly weaponary. His main source of attack is its sh...

     Anguirus is a dinosaur-looking like creature, appeared in the Godzilla movies. It's the first kaiju to ever fight with Godzilla.                                                                    Anguirus (Godzilla Heisei Era)                                                             Anguirus is also known as a "irradiated ankylosaurus", since it looks a lot like the dinosaur itself. But with different characteristics. We first see Anguirus in Godzilla Raid Again (1955). In this movie, Godzilla has come back to life, after its death in Godzilla 1954. But in this movie, instead of just destroying buildings, Godzilla has a enemy to fight with: Angu...

      Shin Godzilla is the main protagonist/antagonist of the film Shin Godzilla, released 2016. It is a more advanced form of Godzilla, having the ability to mutate its DNA and evolve rapidly, but unlike the real Godzilla, it's not that friendly. We can see Shin Godzilla evolving multiple times throughout the movie, to survive. So it attacking a city is not on completely purpose, it's a kind of defense mechanism.       So, first of all, the word "shin" has three different meanings: true, real or god. And if you watch the film, you'll understand that these three words work perfectly for Shin Godzilla.       Biologically, Shin Godzilla starts as a small creature in the sea,feeding on toxic waste. This is also the reason why it evolved so quickly. We can't really see his first form, until later in the movie, when it evolves into it's 2nd form, also known as Kamata-kun. When it evolves into its 2nd form, we can witness Kamata-kun entering the ci...

    Destoroyah is a mutant (also known as the Perfect Lifeform) appeared in the Godzilla films. It came into life when a prehistoric organism interacted with the Oxygen Bomb. It has a lot of different forms, the strongest being "The Perfect Form".                                                                              Destoroyah's Micro Form     As you can see, in the beginning of it's life cycle Destoroyah was really just an organism. It is said to be an ancient creature's remainings. It somehow survived many years until the Oxygen Bomb exploded, and Destoroyah was born.     As the time passes in the movie Godzilla vs. Desotoroyah, we can see it evolving, becoming even more powerful (exactly like Shin Godzilla) as it adapts the environment. We can witness...

       Mechagodzilla is a different form of Godzilla (a mecha), first appeared in the film Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla. It has a robotic look, and it usually appeared as a nemesis (or a weapon to be used) against Godzilla.                                                                          Mechagodzilla in the film Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla (1974)         The purpose of creating Mechagodzilla have always been to defeat Mechagodzilla and conquer the Earth. Mechagodzilla was created by many kinds of groups throughout the movies. Like aliens, technology companies etc. . Despite it being defeated most of the time by Godzilla, we could see that Mechagodzilla getting stronger every time he was remade. Also in some ways, we can see that Mechagodzilla is built way diff...

      Rodan is a fiery winged creature appeared in the Monsterverse. It's also called the "Fire Demon", as we see it coming to life from volcanic areas or even volcanos (Godzilla: KotM, 2019). It is inspired by the flying reptile Pterodactyl, and appeared in a lot of films throughout the movies. Rodan's first ever appearance (Rodan, 1956)      First version of Rodan we see in this movie appears to be more brown than the most recent Rodan (2019) we've seen. Also it's skin appears to be not fiery at all, since Rodan in the movie Godzilla: King of the Monsters is constantly in flames.          Rodan usually uses it's wings or it's giant beak to attack cities and other kaijus. It can also fly in really high speeds, gaining an advantage against the other beasts.    Let's talk about the "modern" Rodan, appeared in Godzilla KotM. It is way smaller than the old Rodan in height, but way bigger than the old Rodan in wingspan. It's b...

    King Ghidorah is a three headed monster (also called Monster Zero). It is said to be an alien, which means it's origin is not from Earth, unlike Godzilla and some other kaijus. It has three seperate heads and every head has different personalities. We usually see the middle head as the one giving the commands to others. Also they're named Ichı, Ni and San (the middle, the right and the left one in order). San is also called Kevin as some kind of joke.                                                                                                                                          King Ghidorah's first appearance (King Ghidorah, ...

    Mothra Leo, is a enormous flying creature which heights 180 meters. It has giant wings and it usually fights with or against Godzilla in a lot of movies. It seems the same as "Mothra" (Mothra Imago) and it is in some ways. But see the Mothra Leo for the first time 35 years after the debut of Mothra Imago (1961)     Like many other kaijus, Mothra has a lot of appearances throughout the Monsterverse films, but it made it's debut in the movie "Rebirth of Mothra", released in 1996. We can see Mothra here as it's three forms: egg, larva and adult. We usually see Mothra in it's adult form.                                                                                                              ...

    Godzilla is one of the many creatures in the Monsterverse. It's a reptile-dinosaur like creature and it's over 100~ meters tall. It has very strong arms and a powerful jaw. It's main weapon is the "Atomic Blast".     Godzilla is the main protagonist in many Monsterverse films. His first appearance is in the movie "Godzilla", released in 1954. This is the first version of Godzilla, as it can be seen on the left picture. It's body is really thinner than the modern Godzilla, and it's head is more curved. As years go by, 35 more films have been released. And in every new film, we can see Godzilla changing biologically and physically, becoming more stronger than ever.    Godzilla's first ever appearance (Godzilla, 1954)     There are currently 4 eras of the Monsterverse franchise: Showa, Heisei, Milennium and the Reiwa era. The films released in these eras are made by Japanese studios. But the Godzilla everyone knows today (Godzilla 2014) is a...
