First FormSecond FormThird FormFourth FormFifth Form

“	A giant amphibian-like creature spotted off the coast in Tokyo Bay. While it has large gills, there are signs that it has begun adapting to a terrestrial environment. Its arms are incompletely formed, and it moves on its belly, using its large hind limbs to propel itself forward. It swam up a river towards the Tokyo area before defying the predictions of government officials by coming ashore in Kamata. There, it destroyed ships and buildings with its giant body, and left radiation and foul-smelling secretions in its wake. It then suddenly stopped moving, before evolving into its next form.	„

Third Form Roar

“	The third form of a giant unidentified creature. Now able to stand upright and walk on its hind legs, it has also developed a characteristic roar. A single swish of its tail is powerful enough to send a train stopped at Kitashinagawa Station flying. While helicopters were sent to attack it, the Prime Minister called off the operation. The monster then charged ahead, collapsing buildings and crushing vehicles, before disappearing into Tokyo Bay.	„

Fourth Form Roar

“	A creature now referred to as Godzilla in unofficial government discourse. Its height is nearly double that of its third form, and its legs have become exceptionally large and muscular, while its arms are comparatively small. Its body produced tremendous heat, and its skin is thick and covering in glowing red lesions. After Godzilla emerged in Kamakura, the JSDF set up a defense line at Tama River, but were unable to inflict any damage. Godzilla was then attacked by US stealth bombers, prompting it to unleash a Heat Ray so powerful it destroyed major areas of Tokyo and sent government operations into turmoil. During Operation Yashiori, Godzilla used its Heat Ray and an atomic beam emitted from its tail to down wave after wave of drones. Although Godzilla possessed an infinite capacity to generated energy through nuclear fission inside its own body, it was successfully frozen solid through the injection of a coagulating agent.	„

Background

Godzilla is a kaiju who appeared in the 2016 Godzilla film Shin Godzilla.

The first Godzilla incarnation to appear in what would later be designated the series' Reiwa era, this was the tallest and longest incarnation of Godzilla in film as of the release of Shin Godzilla but was surpassed by Godzilla Earth from GODZILLA: Planet of the Monsters the following year. Shin Godzilla is unique among most other Godzilla incarnations in that he is a completely new species spawned by nuclear waste dumping, rather than an ancient creature roused by nuclear testing. Shin Godzilla was mutated by feeding on nuclear waste dumped into Tokyo Bay in the 1950s, which gave it the unusual ability to mutate its own DNA and rapidly evolve itself to adapt to new situations. Shin Godzilla remained underwater until 2016, when it suddenly developed legs and came ashore in Tokyo, leaving behind a trail of destruction. Godzilla evolved once again into a third form before returning to the ocean. It later returned in a larger fourth form, which annihilated a large portion of Tokyo with atomic rays generated by its body before entering a state of hibernation. Anticipating a nuclear strike against Tokyo by the U.S. to destroy Godzilla before he reawakened, a ragtag team of Japanese bureaucrats and volunteers enacted a complex plan codenamed Operation Yashiori, which succeeded in disabling Godzilla's blood cooling system and freezing him solid. While Godzilla was halted for the time being, the American government warned that the nuclear strike would commence once he began moving again.

When the Japanese coast guard investigated a small yacht floating in Tokyo Bay, it discovered that the craft was completely abandoned with no sign of a struggle or the owner's whereabouts. Suddenly, the water began to erupt and steam, causing the Tokyo Bay Aqua-Line to collapse and become flooded by a strange red liquid. The Japanese government concluded that the disaster was due to an underwater volcanic eruption, but assistant cabinet secretary Rando Yaguchi proposed the incident was caused by a gigantic living creature. Yaguchi's claims were dismissed until a huge tail was seen breaking the ocean surface. The government assured the citizens that the creature would not surface, only for a giant monster to crawl out of the bay and into Tokyo. Stumbling around on its hind legs and pushing itself forward with its tail, the monster destroyed buildings and shoved cars and boats out of the way as it began to head inland. All the while, the creature secreted the red liquid from its gills and poured it onto the streets. The Prime Minister deployed a squadron of helicopters to attack the beast, but when they approached the monster suddenly stood up on two legs and sprouted arms. The attack was called off when the Prime Minister learned civilians were still evacuating the area, while the monster simply returned to the ocean. The Japanese government immediately began formulating strategies to deal with the monster should it return, while a representative of the American ambassador collaborated with a team of officials researching the monster. The representative, Kayoco Anne Patterson, revealed that the abandoned yacht actually belonged to a zoologist named Goro Maki, who was researching a huge living creature moving on the seafloor. The zoologist named the creature "Gojira" (呉爾羅), meaning "incarnation of God" in his hometown on Odo Island. The American Department of Energy learned of the man's research and dubbed the monster "Godzilla." Based on this information, the researchers concluded that Godzilla was feeding on nuclear waste on the seafloor, and sustained himself through nuclear fission in his body. The fission caused Godzilla to leave a trail of radiation in his wake, but also made him overheat and forced him to return to the ocean to cool off. Shortly afterward, Godzilla surfaced in Kamakura, now evolved into a new form twice as large as before. The JSDF scrambled its forces to engage Godzilla at a defense line next to the Tama River, with the Prime Minister finally giving the order to fire. Unfortunately, the JSDF's weaponry had absolutely no effect on Godzilla, who continued heading north toward Tokyo. The United States military offered to attack Godzilla instead, and after receiving the Prime Minister's approval deployed several B-2 Spirit Stealth Bombers to Tokyo. The government concluded that their current meeting location was right in Godzilla's path of destruction, and as such the Prime Minister and his top-ranking ministers fled in a helicopter, with Yaguchi and the other lower-ranking officials escaping in cars. While the government officials fled Tokyo, the bombers unleashed their payload onto Godzilla, visibly injuring and enraging him. In response, Godzilla's body began glowing purple, and he unleashed a powerful atomic beam from his mouth, obliterating three districts of Tokyo and downing the helicopter holding the Prime Minister and the high-ranking government officials. After expending such a huge amount of energy, Godzilla stopped moving and entered a state of hibernation. With Godzilla incapacitated, American and Japanese forces began approaching and studying him. However, Godzilla's natural defense mechanisms interfered with their equipment if they got too close. At the same time, Yaguchi and the other members of his research team decoded the rest of Maki's research on Godzilla. The combined research led to the conclusion that Godzilla expelled so much radiation that he would be unable to move again for approximately fifteen days. It was also determined that Godzilla's cells were capable of converting air and water into a radioactive isotope that provided him with energy. Analysis of parts of Godzilla's flesh blasted off by the military's attack revealed that Godzilla's healing factor allowed pieces of him to continue evolving and take on lives of their own. In this scenario, Earth could be overrun by rapidly-evolving mutated creatures if Godzilla was not stopped. With this revelation, the American government decided that Godzilla had to be destroyed. The Americans gave the Japanese government a period of two weeks to evacuate Tokyo, after which it would drop a hydrogen bomb onto Godzilla and hopefully destroy him. The interim Prime Minister agreed with the plan and evacuation began. Yaguchi and the American representative, Patterson, disapproved of the plan to use nuclear force on Japanese soil and began developing an alternate strategy. Because it was discovered that Godzilla's blood and dorsal fins acted as a natural cooling system for his body, Yaguchi believed that a blood coagulant would interrupt Godzilla's blood cooling system, causing him to perform a reactor scram to stay alive and freeze solid. The Prime Minister agreed with the plan and convinced the French government to make the U.S., China and Russia to postpone the nuclear strike until the day Godzilla was to awaken. On the day Godzilla was to awaken, Yaguchi officially began Operation Yashiori, the name given to his plan to use blood coagulant against Godzilla. Trains laden with explosives were sent to strike Godzilla, causing him to awaken, after which waves of drones fired rockets at him and forced him to expend his atomic energy. Buildings around Godzilla were then detonated, pinning him to the ground. Using concrete pump trucks, the operatives force-fed Godzilla the blood coagulant, eventually causing his entire body to freeze over completely, leaving him in a state of suspended animation. The operation was declared a success, and the American nuclear strike was called off. Scientists concluded that the half-life of Godzilla's radiation was only 20 days, allowing Tokyo to recover quickly from the nuclear fallout. The Americans warned that if Godzilla were to reawaken, they would not hesitate to use the H-bomb against him. Yaguchi, meanwhile, expressed his desire to rebuild the Japanese government to be better prepared to combat Godzilla should he reawaken. As Godzilla stood frozen in the streets of Tokyo, several humanoid skeleton-like creatures with Godzilla's dorsal plates on their backs were seen sprouting from the end of his tail, reaching out to the sky.

Notable Techniques

Atomic Breath

Godzilla fires his Radiation Heat-Ray.

Godzilla retains the character's trademark atomic breath. This Godzilla's signature weapon initially takes the form of a cloud of smoke exhaled from his mouth and then a stream of fire, called the Super Thermal Radiation Particle Belt Flame or Thermal Flame for short, which is capable of burning through entire city blocks at high speed. From there, he focuses the fire into a narrow purple Radiation Heat Ray, which slices through buildings and strikes distant targets. When firing the heat ray, Godzilla's body emits a purple glow, which is concentrated around his dorsal fins. Godzilla's upper jaw then unhinges from his lower jaw, which splits apart to make room for the beam to be fired. After expending a lot of energy, Godzilla's beam weakened back to a stream of fire before petering out. In Godzilla vs. Evangelion: The Real 4-D, Shin Godzilla’s heat ray was able to overpower King Ghidorah’s gravity beams in a beam-lock after the beams woke him out of suspended animation.

Dorsal Plate Beams

Godzilla can also redirect his atomic energy to fire numerous purple beams from in between his dorsal fins. These beams are capable of destroying objects thousands of meters around Godzilla and are comparable to his atomic breath in power.

Tail Beam

Godzilla's atomic energy can also be redirected and fired from the tip of his tail. This beam is apparently fired from a mouth on the vestigial "spare head" at the end of Godzilla's tail. Unlike the dorsal plate beams, the tail beam can be fired at the same time as Godzilla's atomic breath, allowing him to strike multiple targets at once.

Self-Mutation

One of Godzilla's most unique abilities is his capacity to self-mutate. While all other organisms mutate and evolve gradually over countless generations, Godzilla has the ability to mutate his DNA at will to adapt to any situation. According to characters in the film, Godzilla is the most evolved creature on the planet, possessing eight times the genetic information of human beings. Godzilla started out as a type of prehistoric sea creature that adapted to feed on nuclear waste in its habitat, then continued growing and evolving over a period of 60 years. After destroying the Tokyo Bay Aqua-Line, Godzilla evolved into his second form, developing legs capable of bringing him on land. After wandering through Tokyo, Godzilla evolved further into his third form, developing longer arms and standing upright on two legs. When he surfaced once more at Kamakura, Godzilla had reached his fourth form, which was almost twice as large as his third form and possessed heavily armored skin which made him immune to conventional human weaponry. After being injured by B-2 Bombers, Godzilla adapted to use the atomic energy he generated as a weapon, firing it from his mouth and dorsal fins in the form of purple lasers that could slice through any object. While hibernating in Tokyo, the mouth on the end of Godzilla's tail split open, giving him the ability to now fire his atomic beam from the tip of his tail. After Godzilla was frozen by blood coagulant, small humanoid creatures with Godzilla's teeth and dorsal plates, Godzilla's fifth form, could be seen fissioning from Godzilla's tail, suggesting that he was in the process of evolving into an army of human-like forms capable of combating humanity.

Body Fluid

Godzilla released a red superheated body fluid, presumably blood, when he first appeared in Tokyo Bay, and then in his second form on land through his gills. In a cut sequence, the third form expelled this fluid from his mouth, flooding the surrounding ground at his feet. The fluid melted the tires of cars.

Anti-Flash Defensive Membrane

When the JSDF dropped bombs on his head, Godzilla deployed silvery nictitating membranes to shield his eyes, both from direct damage and from bright light sources that could affect his eyesight, such as the explosions caused by the detonating weaponry. He used them again when he first unleashed his heat ray.

Phased Array Radar

According to an American scientist, Godzilla possesses a biological "phased array radar" which allows him to detect threats without even needing to see them. Godzilla utilized this to shoot down drones trying to observe him while he was hibernating. This ability is further demonstrated in Godzilla vs. Evangelion: The Real 4-D, allowing Godzilla to detect the invisible King Ghidorah entering Osaka-III before firing his heat ray to reveal his target.

Other

Standard Tactics:

First FormSecond FormThird FormFourth Form

In it's first form it was shown to release a massive steam explosion along with it's blood pouring out of it. Like all forms it will naturally adapt and evolve to anything attempting to harm it.

In it's second form it was shown to travel without directly attacking anything, likely looking for an area on land, it had it's blood falling out of its gills while moving. Like all forms it will naturally adapt and evolve to anything attempting to harm it.

In this form it traveled around but due to the body temperature shift, it needed to return back to the sea and regress itself, thus it cannot stay on land for long in this form, it also showed to not directly attack anything, though its tail swiping objects cause them to fly into the air. Like all forms it will naturally adapt and evolve to anything attempting to harm it.

In it's final form, once attacked it developed its atomic breath, this breath was a beam shot from its mouth, it's dorsal fins on it's back, and from its tail. According to the scientist, its plan was to propagate and rapidly reproduce to create minature versions of it with forms like wings to create a colony around the world. Like all forms it will naturally adapt and evolve to anything attempting to harm it.

Weaknesses:

First FormSecond FormThird FormFourth Form

Needed to evolve into its second form for it to breathe on land. As Godzilla has something of a nuclear reactor in its body, its fins are heat vents, meaning it has a blood-cooling system, due to this it needed to retrogress to a sea creature temporarily to adjust its body temperature after mutating, thus rapid cooling is able to immobilize it.

Nothing notable.

The nuclear fission inside his body generated such a large amount of heat that he needed to return to the ocean to cool down.

The usage of his atomic breath depletes his atomic energy, causing him to go inactive after using it, and rest for 15 days.

Note

• The Fifth Form isn't given a key as it was frozen before it was able to come out and thus there is no actual information we have on it.
• While Godzilla vs. Evangelion: The Real 4-D is not directly in the same timeline as Shin Godzilla, there is no reason to assume it cannot have any of its abilities or feats from it as it's created by the same team and essentially shows what would happen if they did crossover. Along with this it was used to promote the release of Shin Godzilla, thus it would make sense to showcase his abilities for the actual movie.

Miscellaneous Feats

• In its second form, every step it takes causes the ground to crack.
• In it's second form, casually knocked around cars just by walking into them.
• Upon entering its third form, caused massive destruction, with its tail merely moving sending a train flying an extremely far distance.
• In its fourth form, a mere step from it caused massive vibrations that caused boats to bounce into the air.
• Destroyed anything in its path while walking.
• Its power was listed to be unmeasurable in Godzilla vs. Evangelion: The Real 4-D, along with being listed as his energy readings being off the charts.
• Fought against and repeatedly pushed back the EVA units.
• Noted in his fourth form to possesses an infinite capacity to generate energy through nuclear fission inside its own body.

Trivia

• One week before Shin Godzilla premiered in Japanese theaters, the Godzilla featured in the movie starred in an episode of the long-running anime Crayon Shin-chan, where he faced off against the titular Shinnosuke Nohara. In the episode, Godzilla had a more traditional, blue atomic breath.
• Shin Godzilla's fourth form was the tallest incarnation of Godzilla to appear in a film at the time his debut film was released, but not the tallest Godzilla ever. The Hanna-Barbera Godzilla is a few meters taller, being exactly 400 feet tall. However, Shin Godzilla's fourth form was both the heaviest Godzilla, weighing 92,000 metric tons, and the longest, with a total body (head-to-tail) length of 333 meters. Shin Godzilla's height and weight were both exceeded by Godzilla Earth in GODZILLA: Planet of the Monsters, who stands 300 meters tall and weighs 100,000 metric tons. The Monsterverse Godzilla's height and weight were also increased in Godzilla: King of the Monsters to 119.8 meters and 99,634 tons, making him the largest Godzilla to appear in a live action film so far.
• Shin Godzilla is the only Godzilla in the Reiwa era to be portrayed by a motion-capture actor.
• In the SpongeBob SquarePants episode "Delivery to Monster Island", the head of a monster strongly resembling Godzilla's fourth form appears.
