Also (for the beginning segment, we know Ghidorah's blood is actually black) so chill
@@GojiCenterfor the opening I was like lol !
nice video man
Any videos for the frost vark & ion dragon ???
@@GojiCenter The opening is funny
I think the decapitating of the head particularly as we seen from both Godzilla and Kong is a sign of showing dominance and in some cases of ego showing superiority.
That's a possibility. And if that was the case, then it would mean that Godzilla showed more respect after beating Kong in GVK. Allowing him to keep his head and die in peace seems to be the utmost respect the G man has ever given a titan of his own proportions.
I thought the same thing, PLUS it ensures the losing Titan won’t ever return 😅
The only answer that came to my mind when I read the video's title lol
@@williamthehuntsman Actually If I remember correctly I think Godzilla just left Kong abruptly because he sensed Mecha Godzilla another challenger & rushed over to fight him
Or maybe because you know, it kills the victim instantly🤷♀️
The start of the video got me rolling on the floor 😂💀
Awesome video as always, Goji center never fails to dissapoint. Also, Skullcrawler at the end?
8:56
A Skull Crawler.
I think of the decapitation of a rival as part of the honor system or something in the hierarchy of Titans, among symbolizing the alpha status.
Part of it could be cuz quite a few titans seem to have some kind of healing factor or at least faster then normal animal healing. And some have come back from wounds that should have killed. Decapitation ends the healing.
This would be a pretty cool fight I think a carno vs a cave bear or fire bear pick your poison
if there were a kiju betting site i would bet on it lol
Tiamat R: rest I: In P: pieces
Pertaining to the unnecessary treatment of Ghidorah's final head, after Godzilla had incinerated his body and other heads, it may have actually been necessary, the reason for this could be that due to Ghidorah's regenerative properties, which Godzilla may or may not have been aware of, he could theoretically regenerate his lost body from his neck stump beneath his head and Godzilla did not want to allow that possibility to become a reality. It may seem ridiculous, but Ghidorah has at least been hinted to be an alien creature and if that is the case, his biology, being potentially different from the organisms on earth, may allow him to perform such a feat. Also the head in Godzilla's jaws (final head) was still very much alive, which alone could have prompted Godzilla to completely obliterate it. Its very possible that there may be more decapitations in the future of the monsterverse.
He knew this and took the time to finish him in the most humiliating way possible he never had to do this he could have killed him by just blasting head of still around because I’m assuming that he made sure the middle head survived the stomp.
Not to mention that the head was still functional in GvK
I think Godzilla was fully aware of Ghidorah's regeneration given their history and I doubt he didn't notice the head he ripped off in Mexico suspiciously returning in Boston.
@@EvolvedTitanSlayer-edits I would have enjoyed of the "Ichi" head survived, sprouted wings and got out of dodge...then in a post credit scene we show him growing back his body 'somewhere on some planet/planetoid' orbiting near the sun; when abruptly his traditional coworker 'the cyborg chicken' puts in an appearance.
Yup in that sense it was. (Video displays a note that says that it was unnecessary in the sense that the head was placed inside godzillas mouth. Godzilla could’ve incinerated it while it was on the floor, but he took it and held it inside his jaws)
You’re models have become a lot more detailed and the animation too, it just keeps improving every episode!
It's beautiful
Yep even I noticed it they get realistic each time that's some good editing
Fr
That's because it's using the model from Gvk. The Animator is getting far more skilled too tho 👍

Of course, they always aim for the head, unlike Thor in IW. 😏
Edit: Guys, calm down. It's just a meme, y'all. Don't take it so seriously, man. 😩
Edit 2: 1K! Mom, I'm so famous!!
Thor went for godzilla's head once.
Man that was a long time ago for thor in IW
he have learned his lesson now tho

@@rexyjp1237And we all seen how that went for the Thunder god. He knows not to try that again on Godzilla
I think decapitation is the choice for killing because it's probably the most efficient way to kill an organism that's already incredibly resistant to most attacks.
Decapitation may also be one of the more reliable ways of putting down a Kaiju, in most versions, Kaiju can recover from gruesome a devastating wounds and take enormous amounts of punishment. Decapitation may be one of the only ways to know for certain that a rival is dead, and when asserting authority, it's not just a trophy or way to humiliate the victim, but also a way to show to other Kaiju that the challenger is dead and not gonna make a come back.
Yeah a kaiju is so big that waiting for it to bleed out is ineficent
Fun fact- tug-marks and feeding-bites show that the Tyrannosaurus also had a habit of ripping off heads! Though this was specifically to get at the tasty meat behind the head of a Triceratops or other large ceratopsian- horned dinosaurs needed a lot of muscle and powerful jaws to hold up and fuel the growth of their massive heads, so a post-mortem head removal would make it easy to get at an apparently-prized snack of jaw muscles and neck meat when the tyrannosaur's kill was running low on easier meat.
appreciate the info i love dinos
Goji Center clapping back with Ghidorah’s head was pure gold 🤣☠️
I always figured it was a way to save energy and make sure the enemy stayed down. Cause a lot of Titans are ridiculously durable but unlike Ghidorah most can't just shrug off head loss.
The Legendary Titans have human level intelligence. They don't think like us, but they think on a similar level. The fact that Kong can speak in ASL is a huge give away. Godzilla repeatedly making moral decisions, and Mothra outright refusing to kill humans lends further credence to the idea that they're more than just animals.
This was a very fun video, and I thank the whole team for taking the time to create it. I do believe that we're going to see more head injuries in the next movie and probably some decapitations, but personally I think it would be interesting to see the main antagonist be killed by something other then a decapitation.
On another note, I know I've mentioned this in at least a couple comments in the past, but one other reason for Titans decapitating their enemies could be sustenance. Granted we only saw this with Kong after he killed the Warbat, but brains would be a nutrient-rich source of food for Titans in need of a meal. In humans at least, around 20% of our nutrition is concentrated in the brain because of how vital it is to keeping us functioning. I'm not sure if this would be a main reason for removing the head or just an additional benefit, but it's something that I feel should be mentioned at least once.
Most animals, including humans, still can fight without limbs. Some reptiles can even regenerate their limbs even when severed, so taking off the head is the easiest way of a sure fatality. Ghidora’s head was taken off because that was the main head that controlled the other two on its body so it couldn’t regenerate like the other head did when Godzilla first chewed off the head in the first battle between the two.
Bros voice cracked 0:01
Because they are smarter than Thor
Nice one.
Lol
5:17
It's not unnecessary. Probably the only way to truly defeat him. Remember, Ghidorah can regenerate, so making sure nothing remained is the best way of doing so. Unsure if one head can regenerate an entire body, but it could take time but that time can end up becoming another fight in the future. Not to mention that Godzilla had a rivalry with Ghidorah. He kind of deserved it when you know what he did. Basically took Godzilla's title as king, almost destroyed the planet if Godzilla didn't interfere, Killed Mothra (yes I know she can reincarnate but still), and basically hurt him in the process. From making him fall over 50 feet in the air, to getting bodied and pulled, and thrown, Ghidorah's execution was brutal and you may call it unnecessary, but to Godzilla, he deserved it.
6:01
It's completely natural for King Kong to use a head like a trophy. Gorillas are very territorial and very aggressive, and knowing about that Godzilla like skull where the throne room is down in Hollow Earth, it'll make sense that Kong inherited that trait. Be in mind that Godzilla and Kong were at war with their own kind. So setting example for decapitating heads as trophies is reasonable to do.
he meant unnecessary in the sense that if they didn't actively go for the head like actual wildlife then Godzilla wouldn't have humiliated Ghidorah like that. A note in the video at that time explains this
Wdym mean 50ft fall? You misspelled 5000ft
@@darklordvader66 You repeated "mean"
Another awesome video Goji, can’t wait for the next face-off
Next faceoff coming really soon!
@@GojiCentercan’t wait !!!!
@@GojiCenter yay!
@@GojiCenteryay!!! Is it Rodan vs Camazotz?
@@apurvpimple6871I think the video just revealed one of the combatants at the end. It's the Skullcrawler, either the regular or Ramarak
Since we know that King’s used prices of Goji’s to build things like the axe, imagine the the Kongs learning Decaptition from the Iwi and wearing the heads of titans they defeat.
I always thought it was more of an intimidation tactic. Because of how brutal some of these fights can be, the Titans wear themselves out. Godzilla had to catch his breath after killing the first muto and then took a nap after the second, and kong even after getting a little jolt had to sit down and rest after killing mechagodzilla.
So to allow themselves some rest maybe through some form of evolution, they developed this violent form of killing a creature to ward off any other titans from challenging them if they saw either the act of or the result.
This video just reminds me how much I'd like a kaiju fighting game in the style of Mortal Kombat. The fatalities would be glorious.
I think there is a very ond one
The game youre speaking of is Primal Rage
You play as gods who take the form of big gorillas snakes and dinosaurs and fight eachother. Theres fatalities in it that are both cartoony and gorey.
Too bad the sequel was never finished and it never took off as a series.
Or it could be that all Kaiju have demonstrated the ability to take huge amounts of damage and rapidly heal. Like Rhodan looking just fine shortly after being impaled by Mothra.
Hey GojiCenter, I've just had a thought. Have you ever looked into making videos about the monster hunter franchise? It's got a lot of really cool monsters in it that would fit right in with the regular content here. Its got everything from dinosaurs, dragons and even kaiju in the series that I think would be awesome if they were covered in the really fancy editing style going on with your videos.
Kong torn off Mechagodzilla's head because he wanted it as a trophy to show off to the other titans. The Scar King is gonna be jealous when Kong meets him he gonna be like "I Did better". Kong gonna say "You killed something that almost killed Godzilla? Last time I checked you failed". Scar King says "I ENSLAVED A CRYSTAL MONSTER". Kong like "That's not fighting that's just mean." Scar King gonna be like "I fought armies". Kong says "and you still lost". "Eh, you know what I'm out of here" As the Scar King Storms Off.
I think we might see them continue, but given that the Scar King is a human like Titan I don't think he's going to have it happen to him, since they want to keep the film in the PG-13 rating range
Still voting in for Godzilla '98 Animated Series for Ways to Die "Mutation Madness/Mayhem"
I’ll start to wonder is head removing is at or near an end if we don’t see any of that in Monarch !!
I had a stroke reading your comment
Godzilla had a stroke reading this and died.
ALLOSAURUS HAD NEVER SEEN SUCH BS
Well there hasn't been any titan fight in monarch
I think I know what he’s talking about, for those confused, he’s wondering if there will be any decapitation in monarch.
Goji center plz introduce the monster from the original movie to Skull island or have him Face Godzilla Thank you soo much! love the videos
They are smart enough to avoid Thor's mistake.
😂
Underrated comment
You hit 1 mill AND I DIDINT KNOW? GOOD JOB
cant wait for the next monarch legacy of of monsters explained
Great video! I was just wondering about MechaGodzilla from GVK: So you know how you talked about MechaGs secret weapons? Jaw Grinders, Buzz Saws, Flight, Orca, Chest Missiles, and Drones? Well, I was wondering if there were anymore you didn’t talk about or know about at the time. Personally, I would love it if MechaG could shoot the hollow earth energy he used for his punch, kick, and knee could shoot out of his hands, and swords, among other things. They would be so cool! And if there is none, maybe you can talk about what MechaG could’ve been if they kept it in development/concept arts. Thanks!
Maybe they do it as a sign of respect or because of their species they show respect in their way
Godzilla - maybe he does it to show superiority or because of a extinct titan that would not die unless you rip of their head
Kong - basically the same reason but they do it because it's the easiest thing to do and maybe he does it by accident some times as muscle memory
( these are just my thoughts tell me what yall think )
Edit 1: bruh I see replies that are 2 hours old and have 100+ likes what did I do wrong😵🤕
Edit 2: I made it a mouth ago 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
How do people not like gore in these kind of videos?
Its one of the best parts.
Bayverse Optimus Prime finds everything in this video perfectly fine and 100% justified and reasonable.
THATS STUPID HOW CAN PEOPLE NOT LIKE KETCHUP
Yeah exactly
I am sorry but Godzilla angrily slamming the camera with Kevin’s Head at the beginning was just hilarious it made me laugh but I wouldn’t dare accuse anyone especially the Kaiju King of all people for doing something that is directly coded in their nature besides Godzilla is not the only one who has decapitated heads kong does it too!
If Kiju are basically immortal, cutting off the head is a sure way to make sure that a kaiju won't come back out of it's hibernation, gestation or rebirth.
Mothra, who got completely turned to dust and came back
I think harpy eagles do decapitate the prey before feeding it to the chicks.
i love how creative the intro was, it made it clear what the topic of the video and its very interesting to watch, keep it up!
Scarking and shimu seeing this.
Ahhh fu- we are probably next,also very good video,one of my favs
I think they do it as a display of strength and superiority
Or because they are technically gods and remember Kali IN HELL
That sounds like a very good reason
@@pluviosaurus05 thanks
@@genesismultiverse4896 i don't understand the reference
Could you elaborate?
@@AbhishekKr.Singh1609 you see the Kali in hell is from Indiana Jones also Kali is an Hindu goddess the wife of shiva
I wish Kong had one of Ghidorah's head to slam towards the camera like Godzilla in that hilarious intro.
This video brings joy to my heart knowing people still love godzilla ✨LONG LIVE THE KING✨🦖
Old*
The female MUTO, Ghidorah’s left head, the Warbat, and MechaGodzilla.
Possible 4th reason: titans are extremely durable, regenerative, and can have wildly different biology from specimen to specimen. An injury that might seem fatal to one creature may be shakin off easily by another. Maybe the titans who have survived to the modern day have adapted to decapitating their opponent as to assure them that their enemy is truly, fully dead. And a titan that can survive being decapitated...well that's one to watch out for.
Congrats on hitting 1 million 🎉🎉🎉
The intro is GOLD!
From the voice crack, godzilla beating ghidorahs skull against the screen and everything 😆
I was making a video for my channel but i would rather lose then my channel then stop watching goji center also first like
EDIT: ok I watched the video now it’s time to share my thoughts first I love how good the quality has gotten over the years And I think there will be a few heads cut off in GXK but anyways, I can’t wait for that movie
Another example of human brutality that relates to the Kaiju in the monsterverse: Kahn Krum, one of Bulgarias greatest rulers, decapitated the Vizantian ruler Nikifor and made a cup out of his skull.
Wasn't there a king who decapitated his enemy only for the severed head's teeth to graze him while riding his horse and that lead to his death?
Damn, it's almost like that kills 99% of animals instantly.
I think what happened to the kong specimen in the lair that tiamat likely killed is that tiamat could've eaten the kongs body and kept the skull as a throphy.
Yay! Goji center used my Ghidorah model!!
But yeah, I did make that model and a friend helped me with it.
Great video. Can you make a video on how many different Godzilla species there might be?
Can’t wait for upcoming face off videos !
Hey Goji Center what you think about make a video 10 ways to die in Pandora from James Cameron Avatar considering 7th december Avatar Frontiers of Pandora will be released.
I think they do it as a dominance thing and as a war trophy thing, the kaiju seem to have a natural urge to be the most dominant one and to fight for superiority
4:38 I have a personal head cannon that Godzilla wasn’t intentionally slamming ghidorah’s head but instead ghidorah was fighting back and Godzilla was reacting in response
You guys should do videos on the monster hunter series! They have the best fictional creature designs ranging from realistic and plausible wyverns to epic elder dragons with kaiju proportions! It is one of my favorite video game series and i would love if you covered it!
“Titans cut each other’s heads off”
Kong: “I pulled a Skullcrawler’s tongue out!”
I have a feeling seeing that most Kaiju get decapitated by alphas, Scar King may get in the fun of decapitating heads, or he's probably done so already
“Give me your face.”
-Titans (and totally not a truck robot)
I’m also thinking about buying some merch either soon or next year after the holidays
Cuz they keep cutting their heads off cuz so they’re dead 100%
I have a few theories: Number 1. It is possible that a neck kill stops some titans regenerating if there are any in the monster verse. Number 2. is that the titans do this to show their dominance and power. Number 3. Some smart species like the Kongs could have kept the skull’s as trophies such as in the kong palace in GvK. And finally number 4. It looks cool for the camera.
I just did a science exam and now I know that I was right, thx goji center
the animations are getting better keep it up goji center
Can't wait to see Kong cut off Scar King's head
Ghidora also was shown to almost do this to Godzilla as Mechagodzilla. So I can totally agree that the beheadings are done by alpha titans to show dominance.
I think you should make a video about the Jurassic world trodon and it nesting behaviour
Taking account that titans have existed longer than humans, I think that humans might’ve learned to decapitate heads from the titans (this is obviously in the monsterverse if humans had the same timeline IRL) but the thing is that humans because of their intelligence and able to observe and take notes and stuff and because they had symbiosis with titans would’ve learned to and how to decapitate heads.
A man and his child 1000s of years ago saw Godzilla decapitate the Giant lemur titan and thought “Damn this shit solves things pretty easily”
@@randomautobotprime360 lol 😂
I mean theres alot of animals IRL who decapitate things. We probably learned it in our own
technically speaking monster verse humans could have been made around the same time the first titans were the iwi are extremely ancient group
0:00 anyone else here heard the voice crack during the intro?😂
I think he has turned into bayverse optimus prime
Considering we see Scar King sitting on his throne looking over the skulls of a clearly decapitated Godzilla and Kong specimens in the trailer for Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire, I think it’s pretty safe to say that decapitations are a running theme in this series that is not going away any time soon.
Amazing video! And just a quick question, could yall maybe do a video on Titanus Shimu since he’ll be in GxK. And I’m pretty sure he is the first ever titan.
NAH NEXT FACE OFF IS INDOMINUS VS SPINO, MY PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED BY THE KAIJU MESIAH, FINALLY !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(2:14, JUST LOOK AT THE BLUR BEHIND THE SNEAK PEEKS, ITS LITERALY INDOM VS SPINO)
Hey Goji Center can you do Legendary Godzilla Vs Ming Lee in her panda form from Disney Pixar's Turning Red Movie
Godzilla Vs Cloverfield
Fun fact.
Khan Krum ruler of the first Bulgarian Empire defeated Nikephoros I the emperor of the Byzantine Empire and decapitated him. But it doesn't end there. He also turned Nikephoros' skull into a silver plated cup to drink from. That's how Krum got his nickname ,,the Fearsome".
I bet $1000 that scar king will be decapitated
[Godzilla rips off Monster Zero’s head.] Fatality. Godzilla wins. Flawless victory.
For thise that havent seen it I suggest checking out Peter Jacksons King King versus x3 T. Rex fight..Its one if the best Kong Fights and for some.reason the T.Rex look better today than when the movie first came out 😂
0:12 That's what you all get for accusing the G man for Gore factor exploitation. Shame on you all. Don't worry, Godzilla! We have your back, big guy!
I think decapitation has something more to do with dominance. We know that Godzilla knows which titans are in his presence even when he has not seen them. Taking a guess, all kaiju have an ability of detect due to their immense size and sheer anatomy. When Godzilla/Kong does this it could possibly send a message to other kaiju without them seeing. Godzilla ordered the sleep of the titans in 1900s so we know that the titans have somewhat elite detection even without them being in thier precense. A way to confirm a kill whilst send a death message to other titans is decapitation, removing that supernatural ability whilst letting all kaiju know.
Yo goji i've got an idea for a video
RUDY (ice age 3) *VS* INDOMINUS REX

Clearly the titans took Thanos’s advice and always go for the head
I have a question who would win in a fight King Kong if aren Yeager from attack on titans in his first form would win if aren was 52 or 104 meters tall ???
"Your here for more disturbing reasons" Bro just told why I click this video😅
Question: Why do titan's decapitate eachother?
Answer: To get the monster yunter achievement
Its a simple answer to a simple question, the monster verse is just kaiju highlander, there can only be one!
They watched Infinity War and knew not to screw around when it comes to global or universal threats
As long as Godzilla and/or Kong are still around, the decapitations won’t be stopping any time soon.
