Minus one made sense being made family perspective cause it was a critic against how poorly society was treated back in 40's, while Shin is a critic on how bad managed was japan back when the 2011 earthquake hit, being unprepared for natural disasters, which is what shin is, an always evolving disasters
So, the original Godzilla was a metaphor for Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Shin Godzilla is a metaphor for Fukushima. That's why both the kind of damage he does and the response of the characters around him are so different. A major critic of the Japanese government in Fukushima was how the bureaucracy slowed down the response and cost many more lives than the disaster should have.
During Shin’s atomic breath scene, when it was commented that he must’ve had a thought behind those eyes compared to the other form, it reminded me- Shin, is technically a baby- He literally has no thoughts- the way his brain works, it’s like a counter. It waits until the opponent makes a move, and he instantaneously heals, and evolves to counter that. But the instant evolutions, come at a price. Shin is in constant pain, and every time it roars, it’s just in pain. So when he was bombed in the back? He simply healed, and developed his atomic breath on the spot to take those jets down.
Minus One director Takashi Yamazaki mentioned, because Shin Godzilla is such a master piece, he need to go different direction otherwise he cannot compete with Shin.😄
Godzilla actually has in fact flown before, in the old showa era films. But he doesnt sprout wings to fly, he just curls up and shoots his atomic breath into the ground. Lol
The thing about this Godzilla Is that he's in constant pain, and it has a strong urge to release alot of energy its holding. Hes more of a confused creature then a monster
A few things: This specific Godzilla is actually inspired by the triple disaster that happened in Japan around that time, a massive earthquake, a tsunami and a nuclear power plant meltdown, so this is more of a natural creature mutated by nuclear power rather than a creature created by a nuclear bomb. ... Okay, that's still pretty similar, but it wasn't due to war or bomb testing, lol. And yeah, this movie was released in 2016, so I'm sure that the years of development for -1.0 in 2023 would look better CGI wise, but this is still great looking for a Godzilla movie, especially the Atomic Breath scene. Yes, the PM and heads of the government were shown dying, they were on the helicopter that Godzilla hit with his Atomic Breath. Yes, Godzilla has flown before... though, I guess it was more in a silly way than a 'he has wings' kind of way. Just look up the Godzilla vs Hedorah scene I suppose if you want to know and not watch the whole movie. And no, at the end there with the nuke, she was saying how many seconds were left before they would have launched it, with or without Japan's consent. They had frozen Godzilla just in time before America went through with the plan, they only waited longer because Japan convinced France to ask them to wait a bit longer. I still have a tough decision deciding between Shin Godzilla and Godzilla -1.0 on which one I like more. -1.0 is definitely more emotional and endearing to the story, but Shin is better with in theming and in-story plot holes, though it still has some. Both have such great scoring and animations, love them both, just can't pick a favorite, lol.
Minus One Godzilla kills without reason or mercy. Shin Godzilla kills because he is suffering. I love how this movie ties in the Hiroshima bombing with the Americans having to "help" Japan get rid of Godzilla by reaching the choice to nuke them. It just goes to show how much sacrifice Japan has had to go through due to America over history, which is pretty sad. It made me emotional seeing this society struggling against an other-worldly force, just for their one hope of aid to end up deciding to destroy them even more at the chance it would kill Godzilla. I was really tense! Also that laser beam/fire scene is hands down my favorite Godzilla moment in ALL his movies. The music that plays is so heartfelt and emotional, and if you listen to the lyrics (or read them), they describe Godzilla's internal emotions- how he's suffering just the same, because in this movie, Godzilla is simply an animal who does not understand what he is doing. All he does in this movie is walk, never purposefully attacking anyone until he himself is attacked. It's fascinating compared to most other Godzilla's who are either purely destructive or humanized and treated as weapons to protect the world. This Godzilla, in my opinion, is the most terrifying and Godly. But he is also one of the most sympathetic. Man, I love this movie!!
34:49 Because this Godzilla is constantly evolving, you're seeing what would have happened next if they hadn't froze it. It was literally beginning to break apart into smaller, bipedal creatures. (Though they would still be giants to us. I've seen estimates for their individual heights being around 5 meters or a little over 16 feet) The ending is threatening in a completely different way because of what could have been and might still be if it ever thaws. Shin Godzilla, if it had continued, would become a horror film.
Thank you for appreciating Shin Godzilla. This film is inspired by the unforgettable 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake for the Japanese people. The scene of Godzilla coming ashore by moving against the river’s flow and the following ruins evoke memories of the tsunami. The film also captures various aspects of the Japanese experience, including the nuclear disaster, bureaucratic response, and public protests. It’s a piece that holds a special place in my heart.
Your reactions are really fun and make me smile. I'm glad you put out a reaction video for the Godzilla movie, it's a great way to get people to see what you've been up to. I also saw your reaction video for Minus One! ARIGATO! From Japan.
Well i cant fully confirm this, since im not japanese, but is what i had read in the Godzilla fandom. This gojira, it is a representation of nuclear disaster, but not that the minus one is based on, this is based on the 2010 fukushima disaster, and so many conference rooms is a critic to the slow reaction to japaneses goverment to that tragedy.
This version of Godzilla might be the most powerful variant, if let alone, since it can evolve infinitely. And it has the most tragic life out of all Godzilla variant, he's always in pain. BTW, if you watch Bleach anime, the composer of the ost is the same here : Shiro Sagisu.
'Shin' is probably the most sweeping cinematographic Toho Godzilla film ever made. It gives the watcher such an amazing sense of size, weight, impact. For me, the best shot is from the fleeing car driving parallel to Godzilla and filming way up from the car's POV as those truly mountainous legs thunder past. I also like how they made his breath weapon work: starting with thick , oily billowing flames, focusing down to an intense laser-like focused beam like a blowtorch. This appears to be the most destructive Godzilla of all time, and with its constantly adjusting form and abilities - especially dropping potentially-regenerative lumps of flesh any time it gets injured. Overall, I really liked the movie, but I found the ending unsatisfying; they'll probably build an amusement park around it, and then be shocked when it wakes up. I wasn't able to catch 'Shin' on the big screen, but I'm puzzled by your assessment of the CGI as being inferior to 'Minus 1,' which I did view in the theatre. Are there any specific gaps or errors in 'Shin' that you based your opinion on?
... I like how this movie establishes early on that it takes many steps and many decisions to make an ultimate decision and yet he still doesn't get that...
It depends really, Shin's Atomic Breath certainly looks better, but a nuclear bomb Atomic Breath from -1.0 is also very destructive. I don't have the scaling between the two destroyed cities, but I think -1.0 has the more area destruction Atomic Breath while Shin has the more visually/adaptable destructive Atomic breath.
They're making fun of the fact the post ww2 , under various UN charters japan is not supposed to mobilise militarily (except to take part in US led uniltareral operations in Iraq, afghnistan, etc 😁)
One thing I like about Shin is that you can see him get more powerful. The first Atomic Breath knocked him out for a couple weeks. Once he woke up, he was able to sustain the blasts for longer and they didn't drain him as much. He's very much "Doomsday" from Superman. One can only wonder what if he survived just a bit longer?
The bombs the US were using were bunker busters that are capable of penetrating reinforced underground military installations. They weigh about of 15 tons each and possess guidance systems. The bombs the Japanese fighters were using were also equipped with guidance systems (JDAM) so they would have less impact on surrounding buildings.
Shin Godzilla is Spooky, Though unlike other iterations of Godzilla, this one specifically represents the 2011 Earthquake and subsequent Fukushima Nuclear Meltdown, even the cranes that were responsible for cooling down the Nuclear reactors were what poured the coagulant into it's mouth. This Godzilla out of all of them could create a world-ending scenario, especially with it's theorized evolved forms, a scenario closer to AoT's the Rumbling The Director, Hideaki Anno, is a name you might recognize, being the creator of Neon Genesis Evangelion.
Still can’t believe they got the legend Shiro Sagisu himself to compose the music for Shin, the music completes the movie. He also composed the music for Bleach and NGE
8:14 - Not really since as stated it shouldn't even be able to be on land, also Godzilla in any existence defies whats considered "realistic". 8:47 - I mean they technically did? Though this Godzilla is a league above that one I'd day in terms of durability at least. 15:55 - At the time this movie released, this was the tallest Godzilla in live action films. It's 118.5 meters, to give some perspective Minus One Godzilla was 50.1 Meters. 16:14 - That thing was him actually, he just hadn't come on land yet. 19:14 - Well its a good thing they have a big target 22:52 - Scary part is that this whole atomic breath was actually accidental on Shin Godzilla's part, for the most part anyway. It was basically just having a case of diarrhea that caused pure destruction. 24:47 - What makes it even more terrifying is that ironically, this Godzilla is less hostile and in ways less destructive than the minus one Godzilla but as you said, still causes more destruction. Minus One actively attacked people and intentionally caused destruction towards buildings. Shin Godzilla on the other hand before the atomic breath, all the destruction it caused was just a result of it walking forward, and even then it was centered in a straight line, people could actually be okay so long at they weren't in its direct path, even when the Military attacked it the first time it never retaliated against them and just kept moving. Only when the US attack actually hurt it did it respond. 34:50 - This ending bit was basically showing Shin Godzilla about to evolve again, the implication that was going to turn into multiple humanoid forms.
Shin is one of the best Goji films in terms of critiquing the government, this one in particular is their slow/lack of responses to the 2011 Fukushima nuclear meltdown and Tohoku earthquake/tsunami. Shin Goji is also like a personification of nature in this, in that he's in pain, confused, and reacting on instinct to threats (which is the reason for his evolutions) You should definitely also react to these three songs from Shin, with the lyrics - Who Will Know, Persecution of the Masses, and Defeat is no Option! They're from different perspectives
23:33 he evolved into the back-atomic (breath)? Extremely fast because when they bombed his back before his atomic breath, well thats what he evolved to counter :)
Minus one GZ was ruthless from the very beginning, while Shin GZ on the other hand was only in pain yet it managed to do all of that destruction, it was only starting to get more aggressive by the time they made it bleed. Imagine if it managed to evolve into those humanoid forms you saw in the end, the world would've been f*cked.
Guessing you didn't catch the wild stuff going on at the tip of his tail during that final shot. Fun reaction otherwise! My fav Godzilla film, written & directed by the creator of Evangelion.
Iirc this movie was partly based on how the Japanese government handled the Fukushima nuclear meltdown of 2011 where it was supposedly handled poorly due to all the gov channels it had to go through hence all the bureaucracy in this movie. There's a headcanon that this godzilla speaks through the music, "Persecution of the masses" and "Who will know" 😢
The reason there were so many meetings is because this movie was criticizing the poor way Japanese government handled a disaster. Though, for the life of me, I can't remember which. Source:I think I read it somewhere online. (Trust me bro)
If you want more kaiju action, You should watch Shin Ultraman, It's directed by the Shin Godzilla Co-director, and written by Hideki Anno who also directed Shin Godzilla
Japan always has the creativity to beat the Kaiju (drown it, freeze it) and the creativity of Atomic Blast At this point, we expect to see more what can Godzilla do if there were another movies, and how human will beat him.
Apparently, the purpose of the conference room talks was something along the lines of showcasing the incompetence of Japan's Government to act faster when the bombings happened
Not the bombings, Shin Godzilla isn't a metaphor for the bombs, he's a metaphor for the Fukushima nuclear disaster, and the governments poor response to the earthquake and tsunami
Shin Godzilla and Minus One had the same budget, But Minus One was able to use it more sparingly by keeping the action at sea Not to mention, Shin wasted a lot of budget on an animatronic they couldn't get to work, so had to rely on the Godzilla x Evangelion merch line to finance it
A lot of the older Godzilla films are great, especially the Heisei era. But as a wildcard, the Heisei Gamers trilogy is potentially stronger than the majority of Godzilla films even in that era.
All these people reacting to Minus One and Shin Godzilla for the 1st time, I wanna see ya'll react to Shin Kamen Rider, especially if you have at least some vague familiarity of Power Rangers
Some Goji fans like to downplay Shin's Atomic Breath, but even if it didn't have the most joules per square inch or whatever, you gotta admit that it probably does the most in collateral damage. Shin probably caused billions in damages. Casualties would probably be highly under-reported in the immediate aftermath too.
This movie certainly had some revolutionary ideas. Godzilla was off-putting as Hell. Unfortunately I've not been able to bring myself to watch this movie more than once. Aside from reactions this movie doesn't have much replayability.
Now you basically have to watch king of the monsters although a lot of people hate on the human scenes and writing the kaiju fighting are beat by no other movie in my opinion.
Please watch Godzilla x Kong next🙏 the cgi is immaculate the human story is actually kind of interesting in this one and it’s overall a really good movie and I’m not the only person who thinks so! Check the ratings! This Godzilla in Godzilla x Kong is also known as legendary Godzilla and the director was inspired by kaioken goku when making his design! Also I personally think the legendary Godzilla is the strongest one I think it’s the biggest one too
Story wise, its mid but has very forgettable characters. But the godzilla scenes are amazing in this one and that atomic breath is out of this world. Scary, intimidating and deadly. Like Minus one looks like brute, this one is like a demon.
lol. My channel is anime, an 8yr old godzilla movie getting more than 500 views is crazy. also for the future, all my vids start slow lmao. Even Naruto
Minus one made sense being made family perspective cause it was a critic against how poorly society was treated back in 40's, while Shin is a critic on how bad managed was japan back when the 2011 earthquake hit, being unprepared for natural disasters, which is what shin is, an always evolving disasters
Couldn't have said it better myself lol
This a godzilla going through millions of years worth of evolution in a matter in a couple of days while screaming in pain
So, the original Godzilla was a metaphor for Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Shin Godzilla is a metaphor for Fukushima. That's why both the kind of damage he does and the response of the characters around him are so different. A major critic of the Japanese government in Fukushima was how the bureaucracy slowed down the response and cost many more lives than the disaster should have.

Godzilla actually has in fact flown before, in the old showa era films. But he doesnt sprout wings to fly, he just curls up and shoots his atomic breath into the ground. Lol
One of the scariest Godzilla
And probably the most depressing one too
The result of Shin Godzilla was so good that Director Yamazaki said that he made a minus one with the opposite approach.
The thing about this Godzilla Is that he's in constant pain, and it has a strong urge to release alot of energy its holding.
Hes more of a confused creature then a monster
Usually Godzilla is just an a hole but here he's going through unnatural and painful changes that explains why he's so angry and destructive.
Flying Godzilla 😂 wait till he sees the shrimp pose
A lot of the sound effects for the explosions and atomic breath were taken straight out of the 60's films
I really liked his atomic breath here
Pay attention to his eye's when he get's hit with a bombardment/his atomic breathe it's sweet he has a seperate sheild he protect's his eye's with.
18:20
great edit! You looked like you were dodging the tank's cannons.
22:30
Shin comments on Minus One's atomic breath: AMATEUR!
A few things:

The eldritch version of Gojira, Shin Gojira, God incarnate, True God, The God of Nuclear Power.
Godzilla did fly once in Godzilla vs the Smog Monster 1971. Keep up the great work.
Okay, so there IS a precedent. But it's a damned goofy one.
21:58 the uber: crazy night huh?
Me at the back seat:
Thank you for appreciating Shin Godzilla. This film is inspired by the unforgettable 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake for the Japanese people.

Man, I'm so glad I stuck around during your Hiatus. Your content never disappoints.

... I like how this movie establishes early on that it takes many steps and many decisions to make an ultimate decision and yet he still doesn't get that...
That minus one edit on that dude's laptop sent me 🤣
Shin has the more destructive Atomic Breath
-1 has the more terrifying Atomic Breath
Shin breath cut a plane, then plane explode.
-1 breath destroyed a heavy cruiser in a instant
It depends really, Shin's Atomic Breath certainly looks better, but a nuclear bomb Atomic Breath from -1.0 is also very destructive. I don't have the scaling between the two destroyed cities, but I think -1.0 has the more area destruction Atomic Breath while Shin has the more visually/adaptable destructive Atomic breath.
Love this film, the editing is very clever and funny at times, reminds me if British cinema in a way.
They're making fun of the fact the post ww2 , under various UN charters japan is not supposed to mobilise militarily (except to take part in US led uniltareral operations in Iraq, afghnistan, etc 😁)
Well, operations in Iraq were approved by like every country in the world lol
Plus Japan only sent volunteers and some equipment
26:22 Flying Godzilla? Wouldn't that be wild hehe........
25:39 They did that was the helicopter that got hit with the sweeping atomic breath
godzilla flying HAS been in one of the older movies, in the most hilarious way possible
Oh I love Shin. Haven't see minus one yet so haven't watched your reaction yet 😅
25:40 they did show it. The helicopter hit by the atomic breath had the prime minister and his cabinet.
One thing I like about Shin is that you can see him get more powerful. The first Atomic Breath knocked him out for a couple weeks. Once he woke up, he was able to sustain the blasts for longer and they didn't drain him as much. He's very much "Doomsday" from Superman. One can only wonder what if he survived just a bit longer?
The bombs the US were using were bunker busters that are capable of penetrating reinforced underground military installations. They weigh about of 15 tons each and possess guidance systems. The bombs the Japanese fighters were using were also equipped with guidance systems (JDAM) so they would have less impact on surrounding buildings.
Godzilla has actually been a thing. One of the older Showa era movies (Godzilla vs Hedorah) had him blast himself into the air using his atomic breath
Before minus one this was the first ToHo Godzilla movie to use CGI for Godzilla... And it's amazing CGI.
Shin Godzilla is Spooky,
Though unlike other iterations of Godzilla, this one specifically represents the 2011 Earthquake and subsequent Fukushima Nuclear Meltdown, even the cranes that were responsible for cooling down the Nuclear reactors were what poured the coagulant into it's mouth. This Godzilla out of all of them could create a world-ending scenario, especially with it's theorized evolved forms, a scenario closer to AoT's the Rumbling
The Director, Hideaki Anno, is a name you might recognize, being the creator of Neon Genesis Evangelion.
Seeing both shin and minus one in theaters was an insane experience.
Still can’t believe they got the legend Shiro Sagisu himself to compose the music for Shin, the music completes the movie. He also composed the music for Bleach and NGE
8:14 - Not really since as stated it shouldn't even be able to be on land, also Godzilla in any existence defies whats considered "realistic".
8:47 - I mean they technically did? Though this Godzilla is a league above that one I'd day in terms of durability at least.
15:55 - At the time this movie released, this was the tallest Godzilla in live action films. It's 118.5 meters, to give some perspective Minus One Godzilla was 50.1 Meters.
16:14 - That thing was him actually, he just hadn't come on land yet.
19:14 - Well its a good thing they have a big target
22:52 - Scary part is that this whole atomic breath was actually accidental on Shin Godzilla's part, for the most part anyway. It was basically just having a case of diarrhea that caused pure destruction.
24:47 - What makes it even more terrifying is that ironically, this Godzilla is less hostile and in ways less destructive than the minus one Godzilla but as you said, still causes more destruction. Minus One actively attacked people and intentionally caused destruction towards buildings.
Shin Godzilla on the other hand before the atomic breath, all the destruction it caused was just a result of it walking forward, and even then it was centered in a straight line, people could actually be okay so long at they weren't in its direct path, even when the Military attacked it the first time it never retaliated against them and just kept moving. Only when the US attack actually hurt it did it respond.
34:50 - This ending bit was basically showing Shin Godzilla about to evolve again, the implication that was going to turn into multiple humanoid forms.
The song that plays during the atomic breath scene is called “Who Will Know”. The song is taken from the perspective of Godzilla himself.
Shin is one of the best Goji films in terms of critiquing the government, this one in particular is their slow/lack of responses to the 2011 Fukushima nuclear meltdown and Tohoku earthquake/tsunami. Shin Goji is also like a personification of nature in this, in that he's in pain, confused, and reacting on instinct to threats (which is the reason for his evolutions)
You should definitely also react to these three songs from Shin, with the lyrics - Who Will Know, Persecution of the Masses, and Defeat is no Option! They're from different perspectives
The crazy is, in the art book for this film, there is a concept that Godzilla can divide himself..
Duuuuuuuuuude I can’t wait to watch this!!! also any particular reason this one didn’t end up on the patreon?
23:33 he evolved into the back-atomic (breath)? Extremely fast because when they bombed his back before his atomic breath, well thats what he evolved to counter :)
@2:53 how I wake up in the morning..
Dang i was early for this video!
If this happened in real life they'd probably call it Karen.
The directors of the movie did evangelion and composer as well as he did the bleach soundtracks
Is there an older movie where Godzilla flies..??
Godzilla vs hedorah 😅😅 iykyk
26:24 Somewhat in the really old godzilla film and toho supposed plans for shin godzilla to make a sequal but was scraped
Minus one GZ was ruthless from the very beginning, while Shin GZ on the other hand was only in pain yet it managed to do all of that destruction, it was only starting to get more aggressive by the time they made it bleed. Imagine if it managed to evolve into those humanoid forms you saw in the end, the world would've been f*cked.
The prime minister and the cabinet member's were in the Helicopter that was getting ready to leave then got hit by Godzilla's Ray.
Guessing you didn't catch the wild stuff going on at the tip of his tail during that final shot. Fun reaction otherwise! My fav Godzilla film, written & directed by the creator of Evangelion.
Iirc this movie was partly based on how the Japanese government handled the Fukushima nuclear meltdown of 2011 where it was supposedly handled poorly due to all the gov channels it had to go through hence all the bureaucracy in this movie.
There's a headcanon that this godzilla speaks through the music, "Persecution of the masses" and "Who will know" 😢
damn that atomic breath so beautiful ahhaha
The reason there were so many meetings is because this movie was criticizing the poor way Japanese government handled a disaster. Though, for the life of me, I can't remember which.
Source:I think I read it somewhere online. (Trust me bro)
It's about the Fukushima nuclear disaster
Shin Godzilla would just keep evolving infinitely until it becomes a god incarceration.
I'd like to see you react to more Japanese Godzilla films
Totally awesomeness 😍👍
If you want more kaiju action, You should watch Shin Ultraman, It's directed by the Shin Godzilla Co-director, and written by Hideki Anno who also directed Shin Godzilla
I would highly recommend Godzilla: King of the Monsters and then Godzilla Vs. Kong (and Kong: Skull Island if you haven’t seen it)
Japan always has the creativity to beat the Kaiju (drown it, freeze it)
and the creativity of Atomic Blast
At this point, we expect to see more what can Godzilla do if there were another movies, and how human will beat him.
The original Gojira 1954 next?
Apparently, the purpose of the conference room talks was something along the lines of showcasing the incompetence of Japan's Government to act faster when the bombings happened
Not the bombings, Shin Godzilla isn't a metaphor for the bombs, he's a metaphor for the Fukushima nuclear disaster, and the governments poor response to the earthquake and tsunami

Shin probably caused billions in damages. Casualties would probably be highly under-reported in the immediate aftermath too.
If you want to watch Godzilla that have anime feel , i recommend watching "Godzilla Against Mecha Godzilla"
This movie certainly had some revolutionary ideas. Godzilla was off-putting as Hell. Unfortunately I've not been able to bring myself to watch this movie more than once. Aside from reactions this movie doesn't have much replayability.
Now you basically have to watch king of the monsters although a lot of people hate on the human scenes and writing the kaiju fighting are beat by no other movie in my opinion.
7:10 actually yes, shin doesn't think but just does he doesn't really have a brain at all.
Please watch Godzilla x Kong next🙏 the cgi is immaculate the human story is actually kind of interesting in this one and it’s overall a really good movie and I’m not the only person who thinks so! Check the ratings! This Godzilla in Godzilla x Kong is also known as legendary Godzilla and the director was inspired by kaioken goku when making his design! Also I personally think the legendary Godzilla is the strongest one I think it’s the biggest one too
You watched Minus one next?? Or did you watched it already?
I recommend watching King of the monsters it's a really good monster fight movie
Man, Shin is amazing, but is nothing like Minus One lol
If you like it, you can jump to the monsterverse now with Godzilla 2014. 😉
No offense to SoloRaiju but my boy like marvels fat thor from avengers endgame 🍺🍨🎮
Saw endgame and thought wow… Representation matters 😌
Bro please make a reaction of kingdom (2019) live action😭

This movie is more a critique of the japanese governement for their lack of response during the fukushima disaster
Some scenes look cheap because it is made to look like the good old miniature works in some ways.
Story wise, its mid but has very forgettable characters. But the godzilla scenes are amazing in this one and that atomic breath is out of this world. Scary, intimidating and deadly.
Like Minus one looks like brute, this one is like a demon.
You need to watch the ORIGINAL Gojira!!!
Shin Godzilla Is the best Godzilla
*2nd best but yeah
i thought naruto reaction will be uploaded today!! but, for a change i enjoyed this as much as naruto ones. keep it up👍👍
i know this isnt One Piece but you should do a reaction to some One Piece fights! maybe some later on in the anime after the time skip?
They should do Shin Godzilla vs Godzilla Minus 1 movie 💯
The first half of this movie is a black comedy lampooning the Japanese governments botched response to the Triple Disaster of March 11, 2011
81 viewers 16 minutes bro fell off
lol. My channel is anime, an 8yr old godzilla movie getting more than 500 views is crazy. also for the future, all my vids start slow lmao. Even Naruto
Check out Godzilla Earth form Godzilla:planet of the monsters movie
You needs to watch filmcores Godzilla Atomic Breath it's amazing!
