We'd have to make her differently then Godzilla. And I have a few ideas.Breakdown wrote:I'd be absolutely open to seeing a female member of Godzilla's species. That is completely uncharted territory and could be potentially interesting.
Really determined for the female to be smaller and weaker, huh?Rhedosaurus wrote:We'd have to make her differently then Godzilla.

1. ALL male Godzilla's-I.E. Godzilla himself-have plates and explain that they were originally used for display. Female won't have any, or will have much smaller ones. Basically a form of sexual dimorphism
2. Males are also sightly larger overalls, but female are sometimes a bit longer. This is also a form of sexual dimorphism.
3. Males have a more powerful death ray, but more often then not, they have to charge up a bit. Females have a slightly less powerful death ray, but they don't need to charge.
Not at all, the females would be just as durable as the males and they would actually be slightly better close combat fighters.Vatarian wrote:Really determined for the female to be smaller and weaker, huh?Rhedosaurus wrote:We'd have to make her differently then Godzilla.

Would the females be a different color?Rhedosaurus wrote:Not at all, the females would be just as durable as the males and they would actually be slightly better close combat fighters.
Yes. As well as having heart shaped spines.Grievous wrote:Would the females be a different color?Rhedosaurus wrote:Not at all, the females would be just as durable as the males and they would actually be slightly better close combat fighters.
HA!SpaceG92 wrote:Yes. As well as having heart shaped spines.
The differences listed are all very natural. Males animals are often larger and more armed or ornate than the females so that they can attract a female and compete with other males. This doesn't mean the females are weak, though. The kick of a female giraffe will kill a lion as effectively as a male kick would.Rhedosaurus wrote:We'd have to make her differently then Godzilla.

If Godzilly ever shows up in a live action film...just...lol!SpaceG92 wrote:Yes.

Some of them definitely have genders though. We can pretty much say for sure Kong is male by his chest. Mothra is obviously female. The initial Rodans were a mating pair. The Gargantuas are stated to be males. So while their gender is often irrelevant, it’s still fun to speculate.GodzillaBurgh wrote:I don't view these kaiju as monsters or genders, I view them as elemental gods or humanity's arrogance.
Yeah, and well you know, he went after Ann in several films and had a honeymoon with Lady Kong in King Kong Lives. I do agree though.LockBite wrote: We can pretty much say for sure Kong is male by his chest.
Was that for Ghidorah, The Three Head Monster? Because I distincly remember them calling the larva a "he" and wasn't sure if it was just Mandela effect.Maritonic wrote:Wasn't Mothra referred to as "he" a lot, though? I always refer to Mothra as "she", but I thought in the Showa era the subtitles always refer to Mothra as a "he".
