Anguirus

     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: Anguirus. Godzilla and Anguirus's relationship started with this movie, and we've seen them fight side to side a lot of times. So we can count Anguirus both as Godzilla's first friend and first enemy.

    As can be seen in the picture, Anguirus is covered with a set of skipes, which makes it even harder for Godzilla to fight with this monster. It also uses its head and its claws to lure away its opponents, and sometimes creating ultrasonic roars to deal damage. It can also curl up to a ball to protect itself. It's also known that Anguirus is in fact a very intelligent kaiju, possessing a lot more IQ compared to other kaijus. It had been both bipedal quadrupedal, depending on the era.

      Apart from his original movie appearances, Anguirus also appeared in the anime Godzilla Singular Point (2019). Here, it has the same physical apperance, just a little bit different. It still looks like a mutated ankylosaurus, but with longer spikes and more colorful appearance. In the anime, we can see Anguirus bouncing a bullet coming at a really high speed against him with its spikes. It is said to be its "future prediction" ability, but its more likely to be about Anguirus's intellegence. Since it's really clever, it probably knew that a bullet could hurt him, so he protected itself.

     But Anguirus's anime appearance ends with only 2 episodes, since it gets killed by a whale harpoon.

       This is the end of this post. Now you know at least something now about our spiky friend, Anguirus!
