Re: Anguirus' Change of Heart
Are we sure the Angurius died in GRA? Sure, he was mortally wounded and burning like kindling, but...nevermind, you're probably right. Just like Showa Godzilla numero dos (the one from GRA to Terror of MG) ultimately became a kinder beast than the original Gojira, the second Angurius was similarly a more gentle creature, less interested in ripping Godzilla's throat out and trampling humanity.Different Anguirus. Usually, getting the throat ripped out and nuked usually equals death.JVM wrote:In between Godzilla Raids Again and Godzilla vs. Gigan (from an in-universe standpoint) Godzilla and Anguirus go from mortal enemies to best friends. What caused the change of heart between the two monsters? Was this just a different Anguirus? Did they settle their differences?
Just looking for thoughts of possibly in-universe looks at it.

Re: Anguirus' Change of Heart
One of two things had to happen. 1) It's a different Anguirus. 2) Anguirus survived somehow and gained a respect for Godzilla that eventually grew into a friendship between the two.

Godzilla became a hero, so Anguirus followed suit.

Re: Anguirus' Change of Heart
Different Anguirus. Not sure if there is an in-universe explanation for the sudden change.

Re: Anguirus' Change of Heart
I'm aware that canonically the first Anguirus died and the second is a new creature, but it still seems a little weird that a near identical creature shows up and becomes Godzilla's best friend.
I'm more looking for fan thoughts on what happened, since I know there's no canon explanation.

The creators of the Showa Godzilla films did not plan for films to be intertwined. There is no true canon, merely obsessive theories.

Re: Anguirus' Change of Heart
Lamango, you actually managed to give a full explanation, thank you.
"And then me and Rodan kicked his ass AGAIN."
"Wow, that guy sounds like a dick."
Sure it went something like...Ever since then, the two became Bros for Life. Putting bros before Hos. Anguirus' hatered for Ghidorah carried into DAM too. He was the first to charge him, then was followed by Gorosaurus, who never met Ghidorah before hand, which is odd, considering Rodan, Mothra, Godzilla and Anguirus all have fought Ghidorah, not Kumonga and Gorosaurus. And don't say the Monster Land staff was controlling them. The machine was out of order.

Re: Anguirus' Change of Heart
Weeelllllllllllllllllll. The second showa godzilla was aggressive when he first appeared, but eventually became a hero towards Destroy All Monsters, after the mind control wore off and DAM and they helped each other kick Ghidrahs ass together, they became cool with each other and later got drunk that night and hit the strip club.

Re: Anguirus' Change of Heart
There is only one king kong but the Anguirus Godzilla thing is in my oppion
1. Rodan was missing so Godzilla took Angurius as the ulitimate sheild. During the swim over and during and after the battle Godzilla and angurius became friends.
2.Godzilla, Milla defrosted and came to an island where Rodan was roosting since Godzilla would be looking for Rodan after their battle with Ghidorah. Angurius was already on the island and thus the 3 monsters bonded because by the time gigan, megalon and mechagodzilla came around Godzilla shows worrie when Angurius falls in that hole and When Angurius discovers MG is too much for him he tries to call Godzilla who rushes to the city to combat MG.

The Kong in King Kong Escapes is only 20 meters, so there is no way its the same one that's in King Kong vs. Godzilla.miguelnuva wrote:There is only one king kong but the Anguirus Godzilla thing is in my oppion

Re: Anguirus' Change of Heart
It could be either one. There never really was an explanation. I think it's the same one though. If Anguiras can survive being dropped thousands of feet , he can survive a little burns, and throat ripping.

Re: Anguirus' Change of Heart
dude, chill... its just for fun... it doesnt hurt anybody... if you dont care for the idea of continuity... leave the thread alone...Legion1979 wrote:The Angilas from Godzilla Raids Again is not the same one from Destroy all Monsters. That's the official word from Toho. Which means what the second Angilas could survive has no bearing on what the first one could survive. The Angilas from GRA got his neck chewed on (where is everyone getting that his throat was "ripped out"), was set on fire and stopped moving. He died. The point was to show that Godzilla killed him and this is acknowledged in the movie.godzilla1996 wrote:It could be either one. There never really was an explanation.

Please stop trying so hard to make everything fit.
This is how i think the "species idea works...
4 godzillas: Godzilla 54 died, the new one raised in 55 and died in Son of Godzilla, Minilla from SoG became Godzilla in DAM and the minilla in DAM is an all new G in the making...
2 anguirus': 55 and the one from the rest of the showa series...
3 rodans: The first 2 died. maybe there was one more egg we didnt see...
2 Mandas: Maybe the 2 are different genders, DAM (Female) and Atragon (male)
Kumonga: i cant say anything... i havent seen SoG in a LONG TIME
1 Gorosaurus: The one from KKEs jaw healed
Kamacuras: ALOT, maybe theres a nest on Monster Island
Varan: i never saw varan so i dont know...
2 Baragons: The one from FCTW had its neck broken, unlike goro that wont heal easily...
Mothra: A good few... id count but im too lazy...
2 kongs: There is a good difference in size between the 2 toho kongs...

Re: Anguirus' Change of Heart
Of course the truth probably is that, by 1968, Toho just didn't care anymore...
I go in for the "different Angurius" theory, myself.
