What did you think of the Godzilla anime series?
- Alastair
I can't really tell the difference between this anime and a pile of garbage
they weren't bad at all but there are no explanation of how Godzilla bore in the Earth in the same place.
The anime trilogy just sucks. I'd watch Godzilla 1998 anyday
Disappointing.
I think it sucked
>has sentient plant life
>doesn't have Biolante
YOU HAD ONE JOB
Atleast the novel has it
YOU HAD ONE JOB
Xuan Pham still make no sense of why she their given her orgins same with orga
A wasted potential of having biolantte as pre evolution to Godzilla
@@spinozilla2421 That's just weird. Nobody wanted that. I prefer her having the same origins as orga and not that.
@@beanus9471 i know it weird but given how godzilla was a plant it would be a perfect opportunity of that since they really didn't use anything new with his new origin being a plant ua-cam.com/video/0NJwuGMY5CU/v-deo.html
Godzilla didn't fight anyone. He slept through most of it. As did I.
@Latrell Lloyd and it took him 3 days to take one step 😂
@Latrell Lloyd can he really though? He’s basically one solid blue green color like everything else in the damn setting.
@@GreaterGrievobeast55 Technically if, as seen in Monster apocalíkse, I hate that they didn't put Biollante in the same position as Godzilla, it's exactly the same concept... But like she's not of importance like Godzilla Plant Earth
Yea
Now that's a roast
I was personally cringing at the “love story” bits of the movies, first we’re supposed to root for Haruo and Yuko and feel bad when she dies, then Haruo meets a couple of twins, one of which has a crush on him, at some point offers to “connect life” with him, he rejects her; her sister makes the same offer and he finally accepts, leaves her pregnant and even marries her. Heyo Haruo what’s good.
It made my stomach hurt.
Imagine someone you get compromised in some sort of romantic way gets busy with someone else while you are in a coma
my sincere reaction to the main character named after knocking a girl up, leaving her, and giving up his life for basically no reason
"We waited over a year" for me it literally popped into existence in the moment I saw it on Netflix lol
Same lol
I found the backstory of the trilogy more interesting than the actual movies. It would be awesome to see Godzilla actually destroy Earth for once.
Seriously! They wrote an entire fucking novel about all the cool damage the kaiju wrecked on Earth, which would've been a far more interesting story to see told without the restrictions of live action.
@@jetfire851 would you rather watch anime godzilla
Or godzillas revenge
I cried learning about gigan part in the story
..... wow harsh
Zachary Mumme okay, I guess it’s kinda anticlimactic with the fights
Maybe it was because the ghidorah fight was like watching a dog wrestle 3 pool noodles
No...that would at least be cute and somewhat fun to watch.
yeah that shit was a big disappointment. this anime had so much potential. i thought the golden noodle dragons were gonna evolve into the Ghidorah we all know towards the end.
lol
Pool noodles are actually useful, how about golden tapeworms.
3600 watts of Subwoofers in my basement made that fight epic B-)
I just realized something
Toho said they want to make a godzilla cinematic universe after legendary finishes theirs.
The vampire noodle (ghidorah) can travel universes.
I got a bad feeling that may or may not happen.
I swear to god if that cup of noodles tries to ruin the toho godzilla imma be so mad
For a second i thought i made this comment
They're making another anime series.
They wouldn't dare
Its another anime
You know we're living in the weirdest timeline when Legendary Did King Ghidorah more justice than this anime did.
Sean Maguire nah, that’s just people who actually gave a shit on what they were working on vs. a director who doesn’t care at all and actively does things different just for the sake of being different and not make that worth a damn.
The guys at Legendary who created KOTM were indeed real Godzilla fans, way more than the ones at Toho who created the Anime Trilogy, which is truly shame, because it came right after Shin Godzilla, a huge masterpiece for me and one the best thing they've done in decades.
@Latrell Lloyd They only complain about the characters, a lot of people love the monster fights.
@@NoU-pf8fc Yeah KOTM was a great Godzilla movie, but the characters weren’t interesting(besides Serizawa, Mark, Dr. Chen)
It's because Destroroyah, Pennywise and Naked Santa are raping the timeline.
The director attacking fans who didn't like his movies was the nail that sealed the coffin
Sounds like Rian Johnson

You know what I'd like to see? A reboot or continuation of Godzilla: The Series, with Zilla Jr. and the HEAT team back kicking a brand new monster's butt every episode. That was easily my favorite kaiju show, and a great source of inspiration for anyone looking to make a Godzilla show.
1Korlash
I second this! Like I get peopke dislike the 1998 movie (though I do feel many just hate it for the sake of hating it) i personally love it but yeh
The show was awesome! Zilla jr def deserves a come back!
I was hoping they’d include him in the monsterverse, I can easily see him work as a godzilla subspecies, like in the past a group of godzilla adapted to become smaller and more agile. They can still go with the story lline of Nick having adopted zilla jr or if he’s to old his son could now be the one taking care of zilla jr, i just want zilla jr back in the spot light :c
Plus the 98 design is overall still my favourite godzilla design ever
That, or an anime-influenced animated series based on the MonsterVerse that stays faithful to both the MonsterVerse AND the original Toho live-action kaiju movies, featuring a branch of Monarch teaming up with Godzilla, King Kong, Mothra, Anguirus, and Jet Jaguar while fighting hostile (e.g. Biollante, Battra, Megalon, Ebirah, the kaiju from Space Amoeba) or even outright evil kaiju (e.g. (Mecha-)King Ghidorah, Gigan, Orga, Destoroyah).
@@Twilightmia Zilla JR has a comeback in the IDW Godzilla Rulers of Earth comic series.But yeah Zilla JR is a great Kaiju who deserves to stand alongside the big boys like Godzilla,Anguirus,Rodan,King Caesar,Mothra (yes she is a girl) heck Komodithrax deserves a chance as well

*makes the most powerful Godzilla seen so far*
*makes Godzilla a descendant of a plant*
Seems legit
There's actually an interesting reason why they made it a plant though.
It was something about plant potential that I can't remember well right now.
What on earth are you talking about, nothing in the trilogy remotely mention godzilla a descendant of a plant.
If anything the biologist explain plants on the planet are adapting to become like godzilla.
@@silverliew0093
In the anime trilogy no as far as I remember.
In the novel prequels though it's another thing...
@@mattiaberti9160 sorry I'm still lost as the anime trilogy is suppose to be stand alone with no connections to anything outside the trilogy, now if your talking about the godzilla iteration before the anime trilogy than yes it can be debate.
Also my original comment was more so for the opener.
So we got a weed zilla
A city
And a golden tapeworm god
No one in the beginning shows up
Legendary’s Godzilla sequel is amazing
And the director wanted to piss fans off
No seriously the director wanted to piss off the purists
Word of advice never EVER piss off a fan base
Yeah, you know how King of The Monsters (2019) really gave Gidorah a sense of scale and power? Well, toss that out the window, here we have three vampire noodles that come out of a sky portal. The only way this could have been more disrespectful was if they pulled a Rise of The Silver Surfer and just made Gidorah a space cloud.
Mechagodzilla City was the Cloud Galactus of this trilogy.
Anyone else feel like Godzilla: Final Wars was more anime worthy than the actual anime? 😂
Y E S
Yeah
yes
Also Godzilla Against Mechagodzilla
That's cause it basically was it seemed like it.
The anime was disappointing.
Haruo's obsession could have been used in a better way. His obsession borders on insanity. The human scientist was more developed than him, just like Netp.
Ghidorah's new concept (A higher-dimensional/4-Dimensional existence) was used in a good way when he was destroying the spaceship. It shows how he was an unstoppable force, but they just discarded it in the fight with big g
"The human scientist" I know who you mean, but the fact you cant remember names shows how just how bad this series really is it's just a shame
How would Big G fight a being in the void?
They discarded it because they had no way for g to fight ghidora in the first place, which is a problem all by itself
Ghidorah destroying the ship was by far the best moment in the trilogy. Took the idea of a Kaiju being unstoppable to new heights and did a good job portraying the sheer terror that such a creature would cause.
@@Ze_Medic well at least he remembers the main character's name.
Besides all of the wasted potential, they also decided that the main character should be “angry anime protagonist #1396”. Seriously, his personality traits are ‘angry’ and ‘revenge boner’.

It was just too slow. I'm not opposed to a methodical pace, character and story development but this series did not do it in an interesting manner. Godzilla himself was a lumbering slug and his fights not only slow but repetitive. There were interesting elements but they were never fully developed

@@fidel0666 This quote can help you tho
Thank you for not being a revisionist and telling us why this is series was "misunderstood
or "actually genius". As a fellow Godzilla fan, it was hard for me to accept how disappointing this trilogy was; considering how fantastic it's premise was.
I think the reason it fail so bad was because those two directors Kōbun Shizuno and Hiroyuki Seshita didn't know jack shit about the Godzilla mythos or lore.
Wait seriously,why was he doing a Godzilla anime then.
Sounds like Rian Johnson with the Star wars movies same with Micheal Bay
Weird, why were they at toho from the first place then?
That's like hiring a director who has never read a comic book to make a Marvel or DC movie!
I love how people think godzilla is the origin name of Godzilla
The first one is still forgivable, but the other two? Meh, total abominations.
I agree
Rizkirafu King Ghidora it’s a Phantom Cup Noddles 🤦🏼♂️
I really enjoyed the first act, but I couldn't even make it half way through the second before I just stopped :/
Pretty much, lol
The twist at the end of the first was solid and it made you excited when you saw how much of a beast the real Godzilla actually was, then the next 2 just took a giant dump on our faces
Just saying it’s Godzilla MONSTER Planet a bunch other kaiju are supposed to be there and are supposed be be stomping around in a world of their own design and what do we get a laser shooting plant, a city with a bunch of guns, and ghost vampire noodles with mouths that’s all we get
They should make an anime adaptation of the prequel novels. Almost all of the kaijus are there.
Actually they made a manga that was *exactly* that. (Note: The sad part is......they never released it to the U.S. or even a translation).
How the other films portray human characters:
SERIZAWA: Make peace with the Titans if you want to heal wounds. Respect Titans to ensure our future. And always understand Titans to reveal more about ourselves.
Me: (cries when he sacrifices himself to reinforce Godzilla’s power).
(Sigh) How the Anime portrays human characters:
HARUO: Tell me everything I need to know! Shut up, and listen! Godzilla must die. HE MUST GO TO HELL! (puts poison in his leader’s drink) And we will show him that we are the guardians of earth (throws pieces of plastic and toxic material outside the capsule) AND OUR PURITY WILL BE EVERLASTING (secretly texts to that alien chick ‘Wanna chill with me afterwards) And I am doing this for the benefit of everyone! (takes his leader ID Badge and weapons without showing).
Me: Haruo reminds me of people who use Facebook to book a facial appointment.
Haruo is one of, if not the worst character we ever got in a godzilla movie, while for Serizawa, dr. Serizawa is the best person i had the oportunity to see in any movie 😢😢 he was awesome!
Ok, We all know about Ishiro Serizawa but Does anyone remember The OG Serizawa?
Dr. Serisawa(1954): *sacrifice to kill Godzilla*
Dr. Ishiro Serisawa(Monsterverse): *sacrifice to save Godzilla*
Haruo(Godzilla Anime): *sacrifice to save humanity by Kamikaze attack to Godzilla Earth* Banzai!!!
Haruo was such an awful character I can't believe that they had the balls to name him after the original Godzilla suit actor.
@@wallygator92 Hold up! Haruo's name came from the guy who played the OG Godzilla?
And Critics say Godzilla: King of the Monsters is bad....What world do we live in?
Don't worry ! We are here to say "LOVE THIS FILM !" ;) and the critics are usually stupids XD
Godzilla king of the monsters is better than the anime trilogy
Here's what's really pathetic, said critics admitted to not even being Godzilla fans.
Well.... because it only had few kaijus, boring characters, the finale battle between Godzilla and ghidorah sucked, and no mecha Godzilla

It will be worse when combined with the story
Because Godzilla doesn’t really fight anything anything
They should make a series based on the events detailed in the books before the anime.
They could have done so much with this.
-Biollante fight in the first one
-Mechagodzilla fight in the second one
-A REAL Ghidorah fight in the first one, in his true form, not just a bunch of noodles that bite Godzilla. Mothra could have appeared and helped.
I think it would have been better as a show with more monsters that the humans have to deal with
I'm a huge anime fan and I like Godzilla as well but this movie series was just a disappointment for me. I'll admit this series was TOHO's experiment on bringing the king of the monsters to the anime world. Maybe in the future they can try again with another anime Godzilla series, and hopefully we'll get more character development and good chemistry among the characters, have a better story line of the series, and have more sense with Godzilla, the monsters, and more monster fights. I'm not giving up hope for TOHO I know they can pull it again.
Im not sure if Toho gonna bring the anime back. The series called world of godzilla might be shin godzilla.
well...
Godzilla Singular Point has entered the chat.
You just predicted Godzilla : Singular Point
So, we are ignoring the very brief appearance of Mothra helping Godzilla against Faux Ghidorah?
This series was a snoozefest at best that made Shin Godzilla look better.
Legendary's Godzilla is about to change the landscape of Godzilla movies going forward.
Shin Godzilla is an almost masterpiece
Godzilla was a plant, Mechagodzilla was a city, Mothra was a rock, Ghidorah was Manda, there were weird mecha but not Jaguar, they brought back Godzooki but with a different name. And there really weren't enough Kaiju, and too much glorification of suicide
Don't worry guys, king of the monsters is 4 months away. When that movie comes, It'll wipe away the horrendous anime trilogy and we can forget it's existence.
Let's hope it won't suck
Amen brother, amen.

I kept falling asleep cause that talked so much and the dialect was long drowning and too complicated I had to focus on more of what they were saying and what it meant then the actual anime and action
What we need is a new cartoon show. Long overdue.
Alex Lemonds
They need to do something similar to what Avatar did. Maybe an American animation company and TOHO could make a joint effort to produce a Godzilla miniseries. And have mixed animation style, to give it a more unique look. But also have a decent budget.
Kind of a east meets west production. If done right, especially riding off of the presumed success of Godzilla 2, it could be REALLY successful!
The Godzilla TV series was good with Zilla Jr
Red X
But, arguably with what technology the animation industry has today, they could make something that looks really visually spectacular!
They could probably pull off the same concept of a monster world like this and Godzilla Cataclysm
But you know when it was a long fight for supremacy instead of when G has already won. Putting some limits makes things engaging.
Kenneth Satria
You mean, to see Godzilla start out from the bottom of the food chain. Then vie for supremacy against the other monsters in the ecosystem?
A sort of ‘hero’s journey’ if you will. To see Godzilla rise to the occasion and claim his throne as ‘King of the monsters’!
You’re right, that would be awesome to see, in animated form!
They needed to have the visuals match the hopeless feeling in the story telling, as in the monster battles, specifically in the first and second parts. The first one was a cool introduction to this new world with the classic Godzilla twist. I think they could have spiced up the second one with multiple Mechagodzillas along with the city. The third could have had the sort of Cosmic horror part but have Ghidora be pulled into our world so we could have a classic Godzilla vs Ghidora but have some twists to have it be a bit more interesting in terms of their abilities.
Well singular point came to reddem that
It’s because there was barley any kaijus
The book had so many kaijus
All we got was giant maple tree and three soggy noodles and a mlienian falcon robot
The story telling was shit too
Congratulations of 100 k subscribers man !
"a vampire noodle" cracked me up XD
Watching this anime was an absolute waste of my time. We have an annoying emo teen named Haruo Sekaki devoid of any personality other than shouting and having tantrums every minute about his mid life crisis that never even makes sense. And in general, the whole message of Godzilla has been raped to death. Instead of being a warning towards the consequences of man’s interference with nature, all I have learnt is that putting on some gothic makeup and black hair and calling yourself “Haruo” will apparently make you badass. At least in King of the Monsters the characters respected the power of these Kaiju.
I might've forgiven the trilogy if it hadn't used that extreme garbage CGI animation. What a lazy way to do an "anime". Then again, Netflix is being known for that atrocity they call anime. They did the same with Knights of Sedonia, Ajin and Baki... they do it to save a penny but it hurts them in the long run.
Seems like it was made by a team that doesn’t know Godzilla, let alone like him. These are not Godzilla movies. They are movies where Godzilla happens to be in the cast. I watched the first two at the same time. I was excited about the third one because it was FINALLY going to get good. Then the religious swing and the horrendous depiction of Ghidora killed it. The entire third movie Godzilla sleeps, opens an eye, stumbles into a field, stands there for twenty minutes getting bit, cha cha cha, kills the main character. He didn’t even need to be in the third one. He didn’t even move.
An animated Godzilla should have been an amazing spectacle due to the medium. You can now do amazing things you wouldn’t be able to do with live action. But they had him stand perfectly still and did nothing.
This trilogy should disappear, it was an utter disappointment. I truly hope I one day forget about it. As for now, I don’t consider these to be Godzilla movies. Just trash.
@Latrell Lloyd you exaggerate, deflecting your grievances on legendaries Godzilla doesn’t make the polygon trilogy any better.
Getting bit *cha cha cha*
🤣
I agree that the 3rd movie could’ve featured fighting
I wanted Godzilla to just destroy everyone and everything and then the screen fades to black......
Personally I thought that the idea of "becoming one with nature" was just too cliche, and really kinda ridiculous, If your gonna take back earth you go forward not backward, so I at least expected some technological developments at the end, but thats just my opinion
I felt similarly. The ending seemed to attack the basic instinct of humans to move forward and create.
Finally someone said it!
I watched the first one... Refused to watch the other two. Especially after hearing about all the interesting stuff that took place in the book that explained all the things that happened before the trilogy. The first movie was called "Planet of the Monsters" but really ALL of the monsters were in the book. And they died there. Alot of them to Godzilla but some of them to each other and the humans as well. I would have rather seen an anime trilogy of what happened in the book... (With it ending in humanity fleeing into space perhaps?) than what we got. Gigan was used by the humans to fight Godzilla! Wouldn't that have been super awesome to see on screen? Mothra and Battra were supposed to be the ultimate team and could have killed Godzilla! But Battra was killed in a fight with ANOTHER MONSTER... (Can't remember which monster, Rodan? Megalon?) And then Mothra fought super well against Godzilla by herself but ended up dying. Wouldn't you have liked to seen that on screen? Heck even Hedorah battled a completely different monster other than Godzilla in the story. I would have liked to have seen that. So much amazing kaiju potential and none of it was put on screen. We basically got the "after story." "Well after all of that exciting stuff Godzilla grew up and dominated basically nothing because the only humans left decided to live with nature so that Godzilla wouldn't give a crap about killing them anymore." Yeah that's what we got. lol.
I watched the first and second. There was no point in watching the third and in retrospect the second was a complete waste of my time.
Theres a book?! How is it called?

the last movie broke my heart
I would've absolutely loved seeing how godzilla completely anylated the planet. That means there should be kaiju fights breaking out from everywhere on the planet. While godzilla is just roaming the planet & just randomly steps into a kaiju battle with two other others that are already goin at it. Trying to kill the shit out of each other then here comes the king both try to double team godzilla. Which fails when godzilla grabs one kaiju while the other one is on his back, he throws the other kaiju to the ground & stomps on it's like a grape. The kaiju on his back tries to keep up the attack, godzilla grabs the other kaiju by the throat & just throws the shit out of em. & just smashes in the ground. Then godzilla powers up & blasted the shit out of em. & he just keeps on going to the next battle. That's what i would've loved to see in my opinion. & you can still work in the human story to.
I love your idea...that would have been epic. That's what I want to see. Really hoping that Godzilla: King of the Monsters will be more like your idea...in that there will lots of monster fights.
Godzilla anime trilogy: *is terrible*
Godzilla: singular point: looks like it’s my time to shine *kicks out every monster from the anime trilogy except the servum and Godzilla and slams the door*
Anime ghidorah: wanna go get chicken
Anime mecha Godzilla: ok
Having watched the Anime and thought about it, my main gripe about it is that the entire anime should've been called: "human exposition about Godzilla Earth", the entire diologue were monolog after monolog, each one trying to be thought-provoking, yet they fail to inmerse the viewers, why? Because as I once heard: "Film making (in this case anime) is like the Wizard Of Oz: you don't want to see the man behind the curtain, if you ever feel like you're being deceived, your seeing the man behind the curtain", and here, the entire message felt like a staged drama; it doesn't help either that in Planet Eater, they keep cutting away from Haruo's visions to the battle, loosing any possibility of inmersing yourself with the visuals; and here's another thing, movies are a visual way of art, this means that whatever was written can be SHOWN on screen, what could've been shown was explained through exposition, like how Mechagodzilla turned into a city? Or Ghidorah wiping out the Exif's civilization, the Earth adapting around Godzilla. The trilogy was the definition of being: "shallow and complex"
It's not lost potential. I'd say it's more like wasted potential. They had great designs. Good writers, directors, and production. What they failed on imo was the symbolism.
Hear me out. Godzilla was always about warnings of humans defying or trying to command forces beyond its comprehension. From debut to "final wars" humans were always footnotes to how the audience would relate to the kaiju's presence, choosing a side and fighting the fight. But always knowing when to step aside and "let them fight."
In Evangelion and AoT the human's struggles are stubborn and arrogant to the bitter end. Eventually becoming victims to their own pride, vengance, and hubris. And in Godzilla:PotM they kept stealing the center stage, kept pushing back even though the native humans warned them of the consequences. And the result was an End of Evangelion style end. Hauro was granted absolute authority on humanity's fate and he chose war. And what he intended was not atrition or dominance, but mutual destruction, were no sacrifice (even for those unwillingly pulled along) is too great to achieve Haruo's desire to "kill" Godzilla.
Dunno what message that's supposed to convey but that's what I got from this trilogy.
...they failed on telling a solid, entertaining, and compelling story. The symbolism was there.
you didn't understand the final, at the end he didn't want kills Godzilla, he made him a scratch, maybe. He want Godzilla destroy the mecha and the mecha's godzilla cells in the sergent body. he want cut off the possibility for humans to return of their hi-tech society!
Haruo begin like the best hater of Godzilla and in the end become the first that submit to the Godzilla's rule. It was a great shi-fi plot!
@@mrwolf84 which is stupid to begin with. He sent us all the way back to the stone age, throwing away and erasing all the knowledge and wisdom we have throughout our time in this reality, and thus dooming us to repeat the same mistakes, as so that he can run away from his issues and responsibilities. What it should have been about is him learning to forgive Godzilla, letting go of that hatred and moving on. They could have just went to the oceans, build a floating city, and stay out of Godzilla's way. Dispite what people think, technology does not have to be in conflict with nature. Godzilla will die one day and humanity will still be around, until then we will just have to coexist with the big lug who is pretty much equivalent to a volcano.

What you said at the end is so true. The worst thing about this trilogy was the fact that it might be a long time before there’s made another attempt at a Godzilla anime do to this one preforming badly, even if it has such High potential to be amazing!
I gave up after the first movie. ...Actually I gave up after the first scene, when our main character revealed himself to be a bull-headed dangerous lunatic, but I suffered through the rest of the movie hoping to find someone/something else to care about. It didn't happen... Looks like I didn't miss much in doing so.
Pity. A Mechagozila/Metroplex hybrid sounds like such a cool idea...
2:34 OK you made me laugh. The serious tone of the voice followed by the sarcasm is a punch line in itself.
Sorry bro I’m a Godzilla fanatic but this anime trilogy is bad. The figure of Godzilla and the suspicious alien can’t help make this shit any where close to being decent. The storytelling is ok and that’s being generous. The overall plot just doesn’t make this a good Godzilla movie. Maybe a good sci-fi flic, but not a Godzilla flic. They should have learned from the 2014 Godzilla movie(which I think is a good, not great but good film) and realized that today’s crowd wants more Godzilla and less of the people. Shin Godzilla is a traditional Godzilla movie BUT the characters, plot and title character, Godzilla meshed well to formulate the overall plot. Point blank fuck this trilogy.
The storytelling is the worst part! The characters basically waste time by telling you what they're going to do in the next section of the series . weak ass shit
The_9th_Hokage like Godzilla final wars but with a decent story and less cheesy dialogues?
Okay ?
Agree with you. I'd rather watch the Heisei movies, the MonsterVerse movies, Godzilla: The Series, or Shin Godzilla rather than THIS TRILOGY.
Toho Animation- "Do you want Mecha Godzilla?!" Fans- "Hell yeah!!!" Toho - "Well enjoy a city that we'll call Mecha Godzilla City" Fans- "wait what"
Fans- "the city transforms into mechagodzilla, right?" "Right!?"
I literally could not even watch the entire series
You could've just said "they were boring and tropey as hell." Full video.
Frankly, it was disappointing.
(Spoiler Alert!)
Okay, I am a long time Godzilla fan and usually do not go into a movie with any expectations. Keep all that in mind as you read on.
1st Movie: I gave the first one a chance and thought it was a little different, unique and a start. Humans vs Godzilla with a twist.
2nd Movie: The second was a little disappointing. We never got Mecha-Godzilla like we were expecting nor any real character development other than one set of aliens turning themselves into machine components and trying to force it on the "MC" and his "love interest."
Even so, I liked the twins getting close to the "MC" (I admit it. I have a thing for weird girls that are not entirely human) and it made me have high expectations for the next film after dropping the name Ghidora and showing that the natives all live with and worship a giant egg that is obviously Mothera. So for the third movie I was expecting a three-way monster battle royale.
3rd Movie: Sh!t. Ghidora was like the video said: a three-headed vampire noodle that was summoned there by the other aliens after they betrayed the humans too. After Ghidora lost his invincibility, he ran away like a scared rabbit and lost a head every time Godzilla hit him. He was like he was a cowardly vampire made of glass . WTF!?
As for Mothera, he made a very brief showing in the "MC"'s dream and that was it.
In the end, Godzilla wins everything and the "MC" decides to end the hate so it doesn't taint the natives by killing himself and his brain-dead "love interest" with the last of their advanced tech by kamikazing into Godzilla and abandoning his very PREGNANT WIFE! WTF!? WTF!? WTF!?
Then we fast forward a few years and see the "MC"'s son and his mother who looks at her son with a very said expression on her face. Wonder why. WTF!?
Conclusion: There are not enough "WTF!?"'s I can give this trilogy. This is like the Mario Brothers movie only worse. At least that was a single film and not a trilogy so less time wasted.
Furthermore, looking at the director, he basically Rian Johnson'ed us. He took an established franchise, subverted our expectations by flipping the "want" and "do not want" lists, thereby crapping all over it which divides the fans. Then he attacks the fans that did not like it which divides and polarizes the fans even more.
In short, the trilogy sucks overall and it is the directer's fault.
Jep Jorgensson it’s “Mothra” and Mothra is a female
@@shadowfangv7876 I mean, he's still right
CGOL Chris ya everything he said was right
Whoa! Rian Johnsons'd us!?! Man, that cuts deep!😁 I'm not disagreeing with you. I was disappointed with these also, I didn't even bother with watching the 3rd movie. All the points nade about this movie were spot on. So much potential.
Wanted to ask, Godzilla 1: human vs Godzilla right...they already take killed Godzilla then suddenly 300m Godzilla appear like it's been sleeping for 20000 years which means those human killed the small one right?
First one was pretty good, ended with a lot of potential. Second and third are terrible.
To be honest, I wanted to see that girl from the tribe grow with him.
Thank you Dangerville! I knew I wasn't the only one who compared Haruo to Eren. Lets hope Godzilla singular point is way better than the trilogy.
Admit it, his voice actor deserves better.
Despite the hate for this series. I overall enjoyed the anime, it goes back to it's roots that godzilla was meant to be a lesson that the hubris of humanity will be their downfall and godzilla is the embodiment of this. I think it's just because the fanbase mostly expects another awesome-dumb monster movie. Though I do sympathize with them when mechagodzilla did not show, it could've been so much better seeing it rebuilding itself and going toe to toe with him in the end.
Best unbiased comment so far. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I don't understand what people were expecting. Is it any different to some of the less loved Godzilla Films yet people still watch them. Yes they could have been better in some areas but overall I loved it. The part where Metphies dies and Haruo crying for him then the Xai Evergreen song kicks in..WOW!! I for one will not diss any Godzilla Film except 1998, but we won't talk about that.. ;)
Tones 1968 People were expecting Godzilla, instead they got attack on titan and end of evangelion.
@@INFERNO95 I still loved and have bought all the Figures I can from it. It will always hold a special place in my heart.. :)
I like it, just wanted my Mecha Boi, not a city with his name, especially since the design for Mecha Godzilla is one of my favorites, it just looks badass, and it both feels different from Godzilla, but similar to him at the same time.
It was cool. Human characters in Godzilla's movies tends to be horrible but those characters wasn't half bad.
10:36 I think that would've just made the Digimon movie. Now, I heard a lot of complaints that Godzilla was a plant. Besides that, Godzilla had the problems of both Godzilla 2014, and Shin Godzilla. The first complaint about Godzilla 2014, he looked fat. The first complain about Shin Godzilla, he moved slow. Well, Godzilla Earth looks like a ball with arthritis.
.
Another complaint from Godzilla 2014 was he didn't get much screentime. But the real issue is he didn't do much throughout the movie. Well, same for Godzilla Earth.
.
Another thing people did not like about Shin Godzilla was he did not fight monsters. Well, Godzilla Earth only fought noodle Ghidorah, and it wasn't really much of a fight.
Fight? U meant bite right
Shin was meant to channel the original godzilla movie where he was a villain
I didnt mine his design and origins. Hes so powerful it took and extra dimensional being to take him down
@@Bowiiihowdy I guess, but I personally don't just like Godzilla because of how powerful he is. To me, you could've replaced Godzilla with a rock that had the same powers, and would've been the same.
im not protecting Godzilla 2014. but the fact is: Godzilla 2014 had more screentime than Godzilla anime. its just the ending that more screen time
Godzilla’s revenge was better than the anime trilogy because at least the monsters do something even if it’s stick footage
I'd like to write something here and it's called "What If MG-City Turned into MechaGodzilla?"
I'd like the keep most of the first half of the movie different with some changes.
1. Mothra is a cocoon, not an egg that's growing to rival Godzilla's size.
2. The MechaGodzilla city has a familiar pattern in it's mapping system that resembles a skeleton of MG itself with a geothermal reactor, built of nanometal that generates power to it. Almost like it's growing to rival both Godzilla and the environment created by Godzilla.
Also the first half of battle can stay the same, but the change comes here when Godzilla is still in heat-sphere, Mulu-elu Galu-gu fuses with the nanometal (frieghting off the humans) and activates MechaGodzilla from the city, fused together by nanometer and construction parts of the city, and powered by the reactor. MG comes to life, resembling it's design but more grotesque looking. Horrified at what's going on, Haruo and Yuko are in shock as Belu-be looks on with Bilasuido pride of such achievement.
Then Galu-gu, pilotting MG from inside, instructs Haruo, Yuko and Rilu-elu Belu-be in the vultures to form a suicide pack to release energy from Godzilla for Galu-gu to use MG to penetrate and destroy him, as he begins to assimilate the nanometer onto the three, with Harou protected by Mothra's scales but Yuko going into a catatonic state! Haruo manages to save Yuko and begs Galu-gu to stop, until Godzilla awakens, absorbing his heat barrier as Galu-gu had no choice but to fully fuse into MG's system.
Haruo leaves Yuko and her vulture with Metphies and the survivors as Belu-be hears a distorted voice, speaking in his native tongue to which he replied.
"Like we have a choice." As he looks to Haruo! Belu-be attacks Haruo, still inside his vulture and the two engage in an aerial battle!
Meanwhile, Godzilla unleashes an atomic breathe but MechaGodzilla uses the nanometal powder to deflect his breath, an MechaGodzilla fires his arm cannons, plasma chargers, torpedoes, knee cannons, railing guns and his energy-heat ray at Godzilla, as Godzilla charges forward.
While Haruo and Belu-be continue their fight with the two punched, kicked and any means of defeating each other as Harou tries to convince him to stop.
"Belu-be! Stop This Madness, Now! Yuko Is Dying!"
But Belu-be is too indoctrinated and defies Haruo... "You are nothing but a threat to MechaGodzilla and all of humanity!
"F**k You and Your Fucking MechaGodzilla!" Replied Harou as he grabs the vultures and crashes down, continuing their fight on foot.
MechaGodzilla continues to fight the charging the king of the monsters as Godzilla releases another atomic breath but once again is deflected, but one piece of atomic ray damages MG's shoulder, but MG delievers a fire-powered punch to Godzilla's head and swings his chainsaw tail into Godzilla's face, knocking few chunks of his right side and knocking him to the ground, as MG launches torpedoes and blades from above.
MechaGodzilla leaps back and continues firing.
Meanwhile, Belu-be and Haruo continue to fight as Harou rips off Belu-be's vulture arm but rips out a chunk of Harou's vulture's leg, crippling him and Belu-bu continues to assault him; even pulling out a tree and into a cliff.
Godzilla, beaten but manages to get up from the assault as MechaGodzilla's arm's reveal chainsaw -blades. MG charges and slashes Godzilla several times, slicing off a piece of Godzilla's face. But Godzilla grabs the left blade and bites down on the arm, but MechaGodzilla stabs Godzilla in the chest forcing the beast to let go, as he is stabbed again in the neck. But before Godzilla could unleash another atomic breath, MG launches his last missiles and fire around into Godzilla's dorsal plates but unfortunately Godzilla's hot textured skin breaks the blades, forcing MG to back up; missing Godzilla's incoming tail.
Back at the vultures, Haruo was close to defeat as Bela-bu opens his vulture's armour-face to reveal a nanometal fused Belu-gu telling him, before he kills Harou...
"MechaGodzilla is the only way now. Too bad you couldn't see that, comra...Uh!"
Just then, two Servum's attacked Belu-be's vulture from behind, tearing through before the two creatures ripped Belu-be out of his vulture and ripped him in two! Flying off with their prize, Miana and Maina the twins help Haruo to his feet. He man's himself from the Vulture, exhausted but was able to get up, as he notices the battle in front of him...
From a distance, MechaGodzilla fire's six electric-razor harpoon-darts, however only 4 of the darts where able to penetrate his thick-heat glowing hide as the mecha assembles his tail into a megacannon, firing up into the sky and torpedo course straight down to Godzilla's location. But while MG fire's more razor-blades into Godzilla, the king of monsters reacts just in time and destroys the tail-missile 500 meters in the sky with his atomic breath; but the red-energy auroa's the whole scenery in red.
Haruo and the twins see the destruction and battle rage on, as Metphies radio-com's Haruo to inform him that the nanometal has proven to be hazardous to the environment if it destroys Godzilla, the nanometal will alter the environment to lengths only the Bilusulaido can survive, there for must the reactor underneath the city must be destroyed; cutting off it's power and allow Godzilla to destroy it.
However, Harou looks on as MG nanometal's it's arms into a long-Hyper Lance sword that impale's Godzilla's torso, electrocuting him and using a Convergence Neurol Cannon on its shoulder to blast particle gunfire at Godzilla. Seeing that MechaGodzilla can win, he offers Metphies to allow MechaGodzilla to destroy and then destroy the reactor.
Unfortunately Dr. Martin Lazzari informs Harou the nanometal is killing Yuko and there's a chance if the city is destroyed, Yuko can be saved in time.
With the conflicting decisions, Harou wants Godzilla defeated but can't risk Yuko's or their future survival's suffer from MechaGodzilla, he quickly rushes to the Vulture and seeks to destroy the reactor by blowing up the reactor cable channel's lines above the surface.
As Godzilla's burning hide begins melting the Hyper-lance, as the cybernetic city loads it's Particle Plasma Chest-Cannon, hoping to over load Godzilla's energy and blow off his head. Haruo flies above, but is suddenly heard by a distorted voice... it was Galu-gu! Alive but able barely speak clearly through the radio communications, but he tells Haruo...
"We are so close to defeating Godzilla. Even if it is a Bilusulaido victory. You and the Exif betray us?"
But with anger in his heart, Harou replies with... "What good is it to win against Godzilla, if we don't keep are humanity intact!?"
But voice answers back...
"Haruo. Who else wants to destroy Godzilla much as you do? You were willing to destroy Godzilla and become something not human!?"
(The voice starts to clear up)
"According to our science, monsters can't be defeated by people. To defeat what has surpassed human intellect is no longer a category of human achievement.
Haruo, stricken in fear of losing and winning while trying to maintain his reality, replies. "Your wrong!"
"If you want to win. Steal your resolve. Surpass humanity and Godzilla and become something greater!"
But Harou screams in anger and wrath and destroys the power channels, cutting off the power to MechaGodzilla as the voice yells out "HARUOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!" Before a dying gasp is heard and MechaGodzilla chest cannon fires at Godzilla, but since it is not at maximum power, it barely damages Godzilla as it's CND was destroyed by an atomic breath blast.
As MechaGodzilla suddenly began to suffer power support as the reactor begins to explode as well, but Godzilla absorbs his red-heat energy into his dorsal plates as he unleashes his sonic-cannon roar and begins shattering the power failing machine. Finally Godzilla unleashes the heat into a red-spiral ray as completely obliterates and destroys the MechaGodzilla where it stands, then unleashes another red-atomic ray to make sure his completely vaporized! Godzilla then unleashes one final assault on the city with 2 fires of his atomic breath and sinks the city in fire! The MechaGodzilla and the nanometal, were no more then flames and molten metal.
Haruo manages to land near the survivors and quickly rushes out to attend to Yuko but Martin Lazzari sadly informs that she is not waking up! Haruo rushes inside to see the sight of the lying Yuko, with nanometal liquid leaking from her closed eyes, as Haruo let's out a painful cry as the scene cuts away to black, as the sound Haruo's sobbing can be heard.
Robert white you're Godzilla city on the edge of battle is a great idea for the movie you should be hired for this idea
"What if" yet we've seen Godzilla fight Mechagodzilla the traditional way 5 times now, why not branch it out a bit? Like how they did with Mechagodzilla City and Anime King Ghidorah. It's a different kind of fight. These movies are more than just Giant Monster Acrion Films, The Anime Movies are slower paced films much like the original Gojira film.
@@Assassin199410 get the fuck out of here you fucking troll!
@@Assassin199410 at least do it in a way that hasn’t been seen before. Imagine MG changing sizes and forms with the nanometal’s sentience being used to build a stronger version that it only takes a malfunction to take it down
If anything I really do appreciate the thought that went into the designs.
End of the day it was just not up to par with whats been done in this new Godzilla era
Congratulations on 100,000 subscribers!
Dangervile: This will be the last godzilla anime
Godzilla singular point:
*Are u sure about that?*
1st movie: Earth is covered in mutated plant creature, but no Biolante. 2nd movie: MechaG is mentioned and found by the humans and the Big G is on his way to that location, but MechaG never shows up or does anything really. 3rd movie: Ghidorah attacks, but has his 'god mode' turned on and can't be hurt...until its turned off and then he dies pathetically easily. Just disappointment and missed opportunities.
I had no idea what was going on in the first 2 movies. All the characters sound, look, and act the same. Won't even bother with the 3rd. Once I saw that mechagodzilla was an underwater city during the 2nd... I pretty much tuned out after that point...
intriguing.....and BORING
Because THAT Godzilla is so overpowered and untraditional.
I cant believe no one pointed out that Godzilla Earth has been living for 20,000 years and 300 meters tall while Godzilla 2019 has been living for 100s and millions of years and only reached to his kneecap.
Cindy Cruz That’s because one is a reptile and the other is a plant like organism.
@@brandonshmandon1799 oh ok I guess that explains it
I only liked the design of Godzilla.
Isaac Joseph Baker yeah the monster design were awesome but the pacing,character interaction and the few screen time of fights killed it for me, especially when they focused more on the character interaction rather than Kaiju. Weak character arcs, boring dialogues and boring characters.
@@ianramos905 characters are alright better than 2014. But what i hate about it was the animation and godzilla himself. It just looked lazy
I hated the godzilla design with a passion
I hate this movie! Is horrible! How ever Godzilla is the only thing they got right.
If this is Shin Godzilla, the idiotic Haruo and other human survivors stand no chance.
Does anyone have any idea where the clip at 2:07 is from? I want to see more of that, because in context with this video I was laughing so hard 😂
It was so UNDERWHELMING
this is why a lot of G fans and general audiences are hoping Legendary gets a contract extension. King of the Monsters looks amazing while Toho doesn't know what they're doing anymore the anime was garbage and Shin wasn't classic Godzilla it was a mutated alien version with new abilities I've seen a lot of fans call Shin Togo's Zilla or Gino
"Vampire Noodle" is a term I never thought I'd ever hear lol
Godzilla 98 > Godzilla monster planet
11:05 except that director and the other guy who attacked the fans don't understand/care about the franchise
True
Source?
That's the trend now days. Shit on the fans.
Michael Dougherty at least cares for his fans, unlike thse directors, they even said that they weren't Godzilla fans and didn't care to be
@@Godzolfman REALLY who are these ass holes??? Names I need that's what Roland emmerich director of 1998 said he wasn't a Godzilla fan and look what happened shit head made a different kaiju film and ignored fans
I'd like to see an anime based on the books made for this series... About earth dealing with the Kaiju uprising and what not. Alot better than the MechaGodzilla let down and ghost worm Ghidorah :/
I feel like this is a surprisingly good and accurate review of that trilogy. I’ve watched it several times now.
The fact that it ends with a kamikaze suicide run in a godzilla movie is... Not good
Let's just pray godzilla singular point will be good, but with the trailer we got, it hopefully looks promising
It good just when they talk about the science stuff I get lost real guick
The anime trilogy was really lacking. I did not care at all for any of the humans, they are all bland and boring throughout the trilogy.
I like the art style though. The idea of a planet full of monsters also sounded really awesome.
Of course you don't care about the characters. No one cares about the godzilla characters, they just care about the monsters.
@@Roarrior. You right
Well said review ... hoped u had some thing about the brief moment of Mothra
can you put the link from the no no no clip
