We all know Godzilla is a monster, but what’s his gender? The answer is complicated, depending on your point of view. There are several theories on the origin of this monster, including his size, power, and sexuality. Let’s take a look at some of them. You may be surprised by what you discover!
Origin
Godzilla, which is a transliteration of Gojira, is the name of a monster created in 1954 by Toho Studios. The name combines two Japanese words, “gorira” and “kujira,” meaning “half gorilla and half whale.” The monster’s name has grown into a metaphor and is used to refer to giant animals of the sea.
This theory has divided fans, with many saying that Godzilla was created by radiation from atomic bomb tests in the Pacific. Regardless, most fans of the monster believe it came from a species that is still extant, and was then mutated by radiation. However, in the film, the movie is not about Godzilla as a monster, but rather about the mutated species of an extinct dinosaur.
What is Godzilla Size
The Legendary Monsterverse has two Godzilla movies. The first one has Godzilla standing at 355 feet tall. The second Godzilla movie shows Kong at 104 feet tall. These two Godzilla movies show very different sizes for these monsters. Godzilla was taller in its solo movie, and Kong was smaller in Kong: Skull Island.
This fact is important because skyscraper height has grown dramatically in the last century, and Godzilla needs to be even larger to plow through these buildings. If Godzilla can topple buildings, it can easily acquire more resources. This size increase is evolutionarily adaptive, as long as it changes fitness.
Godzilla Power
The Godzilla anime begins with a mysterious anomaly in space, where red dust is emitted in the form of crystalline “archetypes.” When these archetypes combine, they form monsters like Godzilla, who can change the environment, tear holes in the space-time continuum, and create an army of demonic dinosaurs that have similar abilities. The plot focuses on Godzilla battling an alien race.
The power upgrade may have been given to Godzilla by King of the Monsters, which might be useful in future MonsterVerse battles. For instance, in Godzilla vs. Kong, Godzilla’s power could be permanently increased if Mothra possesses access to a spiral heat ray. This could make Godzilla more powerful than the King of Skull Island, which would be disastrous for Kong. If Godzilla is upgraded, Kong would have trouble fighting off Godzilla’s atomic breath.
What is Godzilla Sexuality
Godzilla, the monster from the Godzilla film franchise, is the ultimate symbol of Mother Nature’s battle against man’s destructive influence. He protects humans from massive monsters and attempts to restore the natural balance of the world after nuclear pollution. Though his appearance in film is typically asexual, there are several stories about Godzilla’s sexuality.
While Godzilla is certainly aware of human sexuality and enjoys sex, he does not exhibit sexual behavior. Despite the fact that King Kong, his American rival, has demonstrated affection by taking damsels on dates on the Empire State Building, Godzilla has never been known to display that same affection for a woman. In fact, a 1998 film directed by Roland Emmerich and starring Matthew Broderick suggested that Godzilla is an asexual creature.
Race
The Godzilla films have introduced an extraterrestrial race called the Bilusaludo. First appearing in the 1998 Godzilla film, they later returned in the Godzilla: City on the Edge of Battle and Godzilla: The Planet Eater sequels. In this series, they serve as a secondary antagonistic faction.
