“She is coming...”

Three most cursed words of the kaiju fandom:

“Toho Kingdom toons”

*Repeatedly Mashes L1 then Square OP is just made that they’ll never have a buzzsaw built into their belly.

It gets better: Mathra is a legit monster from the ClueFinders series of edutainment games.

Toho submitted the first ROM movie to the U.S. Copyright Office as MOTHRA II

…along some other titles before settling with the “Rebirth” title in October ‘97

This remains one of my favorite Kaiju Movie trailers.

GAPPA!!! trailer in the highest possible quality.

The way I see it there are two possible options, either Dougherty is joking around with all these comments or Godzilla: King of the Monsters will be done entirely using Suitmation, with a modified Godzilla design to accommodate the change in effects.

Something I wondered about Dougherty’s approach was whether he’d take direct influence from Shin Godzilla since he likes it so much. His “evolution in the flesh” comment seems to confirm that the answer is yes.
