Description

Godzilla Neo - THE LEGENDARY GODZILLA


Height: 100 meters

Mass: 90,000 metric tons

TYPE 2 - Warrior Class (possible God Class status, requires more study)


Bio:

In the wake of the early 20th century’s reintroduction to the concept that man is not the sole master of Earth, a secret organization, code-named MONARCH, was founded under President Truman. At first, the clandestine group was small and modestly funded, but on the day GODZILLA I was reported to United World News by Steve Martin in 1954, an emergency meeting was held between the President’s advisors and MONARCH, with the intent of bolstering resources and personnel in order to keep pace with the new forms of life crawling out of the woodwork, and if possible, remain one step ahead. It’s not exactly clear why MONARCH never officially collaborated with the JSDF or the UNGCC, outside of standard intelligence briefings and friendly expressions of international support. To the Japanese, MONARCH felt like a smaller, obligatory cousin that represented little more than a manifestation of the paranoia possessed by the world’s strongest nation that it might suffer the same monster-infested fate as its eastern ally. Little did they know that The American-based organization was on to something BIG...

In 2014, MONARCH, while struggling to maintain anonymity, also struggled to help the US military contain an outbreak of MUTO’s - Massive Unidentified Terrestrial Organisms (MONARCH’s internal terminology for kaiju), specifically the SHINOMURA species (named by Ishirō Serizawa), as the respective male and female counterparts were set on a collision course for the West Coast.

At the same time, the UNGCC recorded mass movements in the Pacific. Kaiju were practically fleeing from...SOMETHING.

A tectonic disturbance was detected in the deepest part of the Pacific, and a massive Shape was seen moving towards Honolulu. Attempts to warn the US military proved tricky thanks to the Shinomura’s EMP ability, but the Navy detected it soon enough...not that they could have done anything to stop it.

A massive, terrible shape rose from the sea and nearly annihilated Honolulu in the process. A gigantic creature, one of the largest kaiju on record, and awoken by the reemergence of its ancient enemies in the modern world.

The LEGENDARY GODZILLA had awoken.

The monster’s resemblance to the Gojirasaurus family was astonishing. Scientists scrambled to classify the creature, and near as anyone could figure, it is widely regarded as some sort of ancestral super species to the known Gojirasaurus family. This theory is further supported by MONARCH’s own records of cave murals and ancient people’s depictions of Godzilla-like petroglyphs found in dig sites around the world (though MONARCH kept this information largely to itself, under the guise of “need to know” used to justify decades of information hoarding).

These ancient recordings of Godzilla-like creatures, created far before the “birth” of Godzilla I in 1954, suggests that this monster has existed in its current state for millennia, largely unchanged since time began.

His ancient, battle-scarred body, as well as the old world’s records of the creature locked in combat with other monsters, leads scientists to believe that the LEGENDARY GODZILLA arises every few millennia to fight enemies old and new. The Shinomura, being an instinctual foe from the monster’s era (which possibly dates back to BEFORE the dinosaurs), brought the legendary beast back out of hibernation.


It is not known as of this writing how the current Godzilla will react to his ancient ancestor reappearing in the world. One thing is for sure - it could be the war of monsters to end all monster wars.


ABILITIES/ASPECTS:

  • Incredibly huge and armored body makes him nearly impervious to physical damage
  • Atomic breath
  • Old and slow body
  • Possible healing factor...most abilities still unknown


UP NEXT: Shinomura

Wait, is this supposed to be from the 2014 movie?  Or is it separate from even that one?  I'm confused.

It is the one from the 2014 movie, but in the style of KaijuSamurai's Godzilla Neo series. Are you familiar with Godzilla Neo?

There is a gallery folder in his profile with all of his Godzilla Neo designs. Basically, it is a series that is somewhat similar to the Ultimate universe of Marvel Comics. It's goal is to create a somewhat cohesive universe with nearly every character in the Godzilla franchise, or Toho franchise. Every picture has a description with a bio of the redesign. The series began in the year 2007, so you've got a lot of things to see.

Its hiding in the dark
Its teeth are razor sharp
I must confess that I feel like a monster
Its hiding deep within
Its just beneath my skin
I must confess that I feel like a monster
I hate what I've become
The nightmare has just begun
I must confess that I feel like a monster

Ah, now it works. Hmm, that is a tricky one. That doesn't look like an official stage show, so it might be a fanmade monster. I look around a bit and see if I can find it.

The Godzilla video game from a few years ago did have a showdown between the Japanese and Legendary Godzillas as a bonus battle. But, by the time Legendary Godzilla appears, the one you control for the campaign mode has gone into his Burning state, meaning that LegendaryGoji is really no match for you at all.

Not sure how I feel about This one on one hand he looks great. on the other guts more fat then id like reason for that’s is he does not look combat efficient, the arms look more smaller then shins an that hunch. Not a good design for a versus but if it’s just godzilla then this is perfect. His size is a double edge sword with this one. I don’t know I’m looking at it from a combat perspective but none the less a stand alone is preferable for this design.

He's a lot bigger than Godzilla III. Do he, Shin or Godzilla III ever meet.

Also he looks good.

I hope we see more of this series, I missed it when it stopped in 2011. I have very fond memories of this series. Maybe we will get MUTO and Shin Gojira and Skull-crawlers (if those qualify, the big one would). I will admit that I owe Matt some credit in inspiring my own "fan-canon" re-imagined syntheses of different monster epics, I did a Skull Island Fauna Bestiary and one for The Lost World plateau too.

Okay, So. I'm looking at this and comparing it to this... This Neo dude has some very jagged muscle, not to mention T. Rex proportioned arms. Its still so badass, I can't wait to see the MUTOs and all. Considering they have what would be called "stealth muscles". Overall, a very epic piece and I can't wait to see what else you have in store for us, Matt. Keep it up.

It would be parallel evolution, because both share a common ancestor at some point.

TheWatcherofWorlds In reply to Boverisuchus [2018-03-25 14:43:31 +0000 UTC]

Very distant though isn't it?

Legendary Godzilla is a sort of reptile (maybe archiosaur-ish) from the Permian times and Godzillasaurs are from the Cretaceous and is a theropod dinosaur.

That's like... um... crocodiles and birds?
they have a distant reptile ancestor and have been active land predators, but are very different in their development, and so that's why I thought its convergent.

Making LG into a separate kaiju from Godzilla is a really interesting and unexpected choice. I love the idea of an ancient, primordial titan as a biological precursor to the modern Godzilla. It's almost like the Gojirasaurus that became Godzilla didn't so much mutate, as reverse-evolve to closer resemble its ancestor, which evolved in a radioactive world. Great concept.

Deim0sThe42ndReap3r In reply to CaptainCook2 [2018-03-28 14:53:53 +0000 UTC]

That "reverse-evolve" thing is called atavism, an actual biological phenomenon where ancestral traits manifest after being lost through evolution. The genes for those traits are still there but they are inactive and unused.
