"We will make this the greatest worst nightmare". Well, they delivered that promise

The one thing I love about Shin Godzilla is the fact that they went as far as Toho permitted to make this movie as realistic as possible. They even got the aura of radiation right. You know how "The Simpsons" always featured Springfield's Nuclear Power Plant having a radioactive green glow? Only found in cartoons. So this comes from a cousin of mine who works at a nuclear power plant (at least until they shut down the final reactor): radiation genuinely glows in a violet color.

Kamata-kun: *bleeding from it's gills and crawling mindlessly over buildings, cars, and people* Me: awww look at his little arms!

The flesh eyeball toothy skin scene should of been in the film, gives it such a far more creepy vibe that it’s body isn’t just “morphing” but splitting apart in a horrific manner as it evolves

Legendary Godzilla: Oh hey japan how ya do- WTF IS THAT!? Shin: *H e L p M e*

Legendary Godzilla:Who the hell are you!? Shin Godzilla:I'm you but horribly mutated, depressed, and in constant pain

11:15 This moment is AMAZING. The fact that they let you look through the drone's perspective is just really nice, and the glow you see before losing signal is just creepy AF.

I somewhat liked Shin's design, especially the evolution stages, but his attacks just stole my breath away. Shockingly beautiful.

Japanese government: It's impossible for this creature to make land Shin godzilla: immediately makes land.

He seems more like a tragic being instead of a down right evil one.

Japan: It's impossible for this creature to make land, as it will kill itself due to collapsing on his own weight. Shin Godzilla: Well.. you see.

Can you imagine how horrifying a Shin Hedorah and Shin Destroyah would be.

I've seen lots of people bash on Shin because he's "ugly" and "weird" while completely missing that: THAT'S THE POINT!!! Shin is INTENDED to be a terrifying, horrible, disgusting, repulsive, unsettling, uncanny, and in-human monster. Even if you think he looks cool or badass or nice, his main purpose is to insteal disgust, fear and awe. He's not a heroic or cool monster like other Godzillas. He's a scary, wild and "evil" Godzilla like the original from the first ever movie.

2:38 everybody gangsta until Godzilla t-poses

Ah. Yes. Shin Godzilla. AKA, "The only time since his original movie that Godzilla has been a proper, scary movie monster."

Wearing a mask just to feel in character is something that I have to applaud.

Legendary Godzilla : Uses Atomic Breath. Shin Godzilla : Oh, you think radiation is your ally. But you merely adopted the radiation; I was born in it, moulded by it. I didn't feel the earth under my feet until I was already a man, by then it was nothing to me but HURTING!!!

Shin Godzilla served its purpose. It’s was supposed to be horrifying, and they nailed it.

Legendary Godzilla: who are you. Shin Godzilla: I’m you but my life is pain

There’s something I noticed about Shin Godzilla. Almost every other incarnation of Godzilla can clearly control it’s breath. But Shin can’t. Look at his position, it’s almost like he’s vomiting. You combine that with all the radiation and the mutations, the creature has to be in constant, *excruciating* pain. It’s horrifying honestly.

The creepiest and most unsettling Godzilla, but I love it.

This version of Godzilla scared the shit out of me.....

Legendary Godzilla: Who are you? Shin Godzilla: Im you, but sadder.

I always loved how by the 4th stage he's evolved such a natural defence that he has no problem stopping right in his tracks to hibernate... Its like nature decides there's nothing anything can do to hurt gym him so he doesn't have to hide away

They should recycle that Puppet and use it as an animatronic in a godzilla museum.

2:36 Seeing Shin Godzilla flop around while T-posing might be the most beautiful thing i've ever witnessed

If commitee defeated godzilla,godzilla will be a comitee. Meaning: "If Humans defeated godzilla,godzilla will be a human."

I always loved how primal they made Godzilla look in this film. He wasn’t majestic, or an awesome force of nature, here he’s just a force of pure primal destruction with a dash of body horror and intense revulsion.

Legendary Godzilla: What the hell are you? Shin Godzilla: Yes

This is the creepiest Godzilla I have ever seen...

Godzilla's second form is legitimately the derpiest and most terrifying thing I've ever seen. I'll admit I laughed out loud when I first saw his appearance, but I also thought, "Damn, if I saw that thing crawling down the street towards me..." and shivered. It looks so silly at first glance, but the more you look at it the more you realize there's something so alien and unsettling about the dead look in its eyes, the way it spews hot blood from its sides as it crawls along on its belly... and then you see the path of destruction it leaves in its wake, and suddenly it's not so cute and funny anymore but this horrifying, uncomprehending, unstoppable force of chaos. I have no idea how the filmmakers managed to pull off this duality so well, but they seriously nailed it.

Honestly, while I have never seen the movie and spoiled myself beyond belief, I find this version of Godzilla to be a breath of fresh air. It's a look back at his original concept from the 50s and amplified in terms of terror and despair. It's a new look at the nuclear fallout consequence of humanity. His design is 10x scarier, his abilities are far more deadly, and the hints of his pain in one of the soundtrack themes really play a good part in his existence. He was an accidental mutation from nuclear waste dumping. He is confused and perhaps scared while also constantly adapting rapidly. I bet he didn't even have intention in that kind of destruction. He just happened. And the horror of his adapting abilities definitely go on a larger scale when considering the humanoids on his tail as well as "proto-zilla" from the deleted scene of his dorsal fin piece replicating certain body parts on its own. Then there are the hidden concepts of his next forms that were meant to take place all the way to becoming some kind of omnipotent being entirely toward the end from mutating and evolving so much. It's even more horrifying to think about considering that these concepts were made with the help of a worker of Evangelion. I love Shin Godzilla more than even Legendary Godzilla and that really is saying a lot. I love everything about him and he brings me so much dread whenever I see his forms while allowing me to sympathize with his existence altogether. He is a walking mutation with so much tragedy around him.

The song “Who Will Know” perfectly captures the big G. Godzilla is a big creature who is trying to survive. But to everybody, he’s a monster, making him sad that nobody understands.

2:36 This is how you assert domination against all of the known Godzilla

WHY WOULD YOU DROP A HYDROGEN BOMB ONTO SHIN GODZILLA!? HE’S JUST GONNA BECOME MORE MASSIVE AND MUTATED

This Godzilla is giving Chuck Norris a run for his beard.

Each country's superpower: China: Industrial equipment USA: Military weapons Germany: Supercomputers France: Stalling

“If committees defeated Godzilla, then Godzilla will become a committee.” Just image walking into a boardroom, and mini Godzillas fill every chair but one. A Godzilla pulls out the chair, patting the seat. you know this can end really well, or really badly, and theres only one way to find out.

Shin godzilla be like:You fool this isn't even my final form!

*godzilla's tail opens and starts firing atomic breath* some guy: how the hell can it do that

Has anyone ever imagined a “shin ghidorah” Edit: i know it exists, the comment was made before shin Ghidorah was a thing

Legendary godzilla: is shin godzilla one of us? godzilla 2000: just look at shin Godzilla Zilla:*appears* sup guys! Shin godzilla: is he one of us ?

Ambitious, absolutely horrifying, well done. I don't really care about godzilla really, but even so I applaud the boldness of changing so much, even though it borrows elements of horror like the Thing and resident evil, applying those things to something as huge and iconic as godzilla is something I've never considered before. I love the ending oh my god, freezing him just as he's morphing into a new form straight out Dante's Inferno, with tons of eerily humanoid features? Splendid! The question remains, what on earth was about to happen next, and how many forms would he go through if given the chance?

This was my first introduction to Godzilla, over 2 years ago. Thank you very, very much wikizilla!

Godzilla's second form is kinda cute. For about five seconds. Then you realize this thing is clearly in constant agony.

Therapist: Ocean spawn Shin Godzilla isn't real and it can't hurt you. Kamata-kun: 8D * wiggles closer * *8D*

Shin godzilla looks super cool. His tail thats a head definately makes him ome of my favorites

Here in Japan we bought many toys of Shin Gojira. During the same era as Uchuu Sentai Kyuranger and Kamen Rider Build. Shingoji still the most scariest horror Kaijuu film. Many collaboration with Shin Eva, Shin Ultraman, and Shin Kamen Rider. But also Shinkarion anime in movie Alpha X movie.

My favorite version of Godzilla. Truly a monster forged from the mistakes of mankind

Me finding out shin godzilla has a fifth form: Mom pick me up I'm scared

Imagine the smol humans coming from his tail turned into more, bigger 4th forms with more energy. What a nightmare.

The eyes... They frighten me

Phase 1 : I’m slow Phase 2 : I have no arms Phase 3 : I stand :D Phase 4 : I HAVE 3 WEAPONS Phase 5 : I’m an alien

Shin Godzilla is definitely the David Cronenberg of the Godzilla reincarnations I would think, just look how gory and undead he looks, his eyes especially freak me out when looking at them. The designer did an amazing job with that if that's what he was going for. The final form at the end of the tail gives off the most Cronenberg vibes to me.

You are the reason (and this video) is the reason why I love Shin Gojira. Keep it up bro!

Rodan: bet he can't fly Shinzilla: *evolving* Pokemon evolution announcer: congratulations toho your shinzilla evolve into a... Holy sh** what is that?!

My therapist: T posing shin godzilla isn't real, he can't hurt you! T posing shin godzilla: 2:38

Loved the movie, and this really depicted Shin really well. loved it so much I subscribed!

This video had much more info that I expect, congrats

Gojira ('54): You shall share my pain. Godzilla (Showa): I love humans! No, I hate humans! No, I love them! Godzilla (HB): Rawr! Do I even count? Godzilla (Heisei): *grumbling* GodZilla ('98): I'm the *real* Godzilla! Godzilla (GTS): I'm embarrassed of my dad. Godzilla 2k: I hate everyone. Godzilla (GvM): I can never die! Godzilla (GMK): I WILL KILL YOUR FACE! Godzilla (SOS): I kill anything standing near me. Godzilla (FW): Screw humanity, I'm Awesome! Godzilla (MV): Hail to the king, baby. Shin Godzilla: *agonized gurgling growl* Godzilla Filius: I exist. Godzilla Earth: Dont talk to me or my planet ever again. Godzilla (SP): So, what'd I miss?

Nobody: Shin Godzilla: Everythinghurtspleasekillme...

You guys were my childhood I’m so glad I found your channel. You’re the best 💙💙🦖

2:38 “T-posing shin Godzilla can not hurt you” T-posing shin Godzilla:

Truly a nightmarish godzilla. To have eyes and fangs just sprouted all over his flesh and body reveals what a true atomic nightmare Shin Godzilla was truly made out to be.

I seriously want a statue of the tail in the final shot... Absolute horror masterpiece!!!

Chinese tank trucks French diplomatic stalling German processing power American firepower The power rangers

I’ve always wondered if shin Godzilla finished his fifth form and wonder what would happen after?

Aliens arrive on Earth Japan: *dumps the Godzilla blood samples into the ocean*

Anyone else find it ironic that the sound effect used for Godzilla's beam came from one of the few monsters who successfully defeated him?

This is my favorite wikizilla video

Shin Godzilla honestly looks as tho his very existence causes him untold agony, like all of his attacks are simply the response of an already hurt, terrified animal backed into a corner. His movements are shaky and erratic, like a deer or rabbit in shock, but violent like a wounded dog

Shin Godzilla: **gets some hate** Zilla: First time?

"if committees defeated godzilla, then godzilla will become a committee" but what if comedians defeated godzilla? would godzilla become a comedian? 🤔

I love your videos it tells so many facts about the KAIJUS

This is honestly my favorite movie and version of godzilla. This video is my favorite of him

It's been rumored Shins 8th-9th form was Evangelion God tier form. Though that source has been removed...

Wait, I just realized! What if a diver was down there on an investigation with the waste right as godzilla was mutating, and they merged once they mutated!? That would explain the tail head's human jaws and the half-human hybrids, and why Shin Godzilla has the texture of rubber, from the probably rubber diver suit! I know, outlandish, but it's a possibility! EDIT: I completely forgot about the "guy in the yacht" part! Now it makes even MORE sense! (Thx for reminding me btw, guys!)

Very nice video!

Oh god this is so good

Awesome video. So much good info!

As someone who has just recently gotten back into kaiju and monster films, your website has been a godsend. Thank you for all the work!

Fun fact: Goro Maki is actually a main character in son of Godzilla 1967

*Did i just see shin godzilla do a T-pose!??*

He only roars when he is in immense pain, have fun watching this movie even more disturbed

Im in love with the final Sculpture of his tail... I want it

Great Video

Me: how many times will you evolve Shin: yes

Godzilla fourth form: THIS ISN'T EVEN MY FINAL FORM! Hohoho

loved the sound fx amd the soundtrack

15:19 *my guy just got blasted into the stratosphere*

Every other Godzilla; what the hell are you Shin Godzilla; I am god

One of my favorite Godzilla designs ever. I Don't care about the hate it got cuz i like it's design, evolutionary concept and him being a literal abomination against humanity. I bought into all of that and it couldn't have done better without Hideaki Anno (sorry for messing up his name)

aunt no way Shin be celabrating new years like that btw big fan love the vids

I really understand this video thank you making me understand

My favorite incarnation of the character next to Millenium, I only wish the whole ‘little godzillas sprouting from its flesh’ part got to be explored a bit more. Perhaps a sequel?

This is the scariest Godzilla in movies. And a story that has some science behind it, rather than mythology.

This is actually my brothers favorite version and it’s cool as your news abilities and what the movies is when you watch it

You can tell Godzilla was in immeasurable pain and that makes me sad.

I’d argue this Godzilla is not only the most Destructive but the most Powerful (other than Godzilla Earth) due to its Radioactive nature without being in a Burning form and due to him Evolving at a Rapid Rate
