Mothra Leo genuinely surprised me by how much of a powerhouse the guy is when I watched the mothra trilogy for the first time. Ironically he's the 1st son of a popular kaiju in this franchise to be stronger than his parent. (Zilla Jr being 2nd)
@@jasongray6698 It's a good question time travel aside I think godzilla might might beaable to take down leo as the heisei godzilla pre burning mode was able to defeat and kill ghidora. So if this means that they were close in power I feel burning mode would put godzilla on top.
The idea of Mothra and King Ghidorah existing in a timeline with seemingly no version of Godzilla is fascinating. I do sometimes wonder how well Leo would fare against any version Godzilla compared to his mother.
Consiste the big arsenal mothra have it have big chances more when either use armored form or light speed form to take out an weaker version of godzilla
It would shit in every Godzilla that isn't the anime busted singular point reality bending Godzilla Like just normal Leo on papper would be up there with heisei Godzilla/final wars kind of power level with all the beam spam But the lights speed stuff is so god damn broken when you think about it it's insane
I like that one comment on Eternal Mothra. "Since he didn't fight another monster, his other powers are unknown. But they are probably terrifying." Yeah...I would agree with that lol :) Great vid though.
@@michaelcallari Hopefully He completely destroyed him this time or else King Ghidorah will be stuck in loop of Regrow and destroyed over and over again
This was a fun trilogy of movies for me, and I love all of the antagonists. I know that they don’t exist in the same continuity, but I would love to see Junior and Leo team up.
That makes me think of a fun what if scenario: What if the heisei Godzilla series and Rebirth of Mothra were in the same continuity? Moll and Lora replace the Cosmos in the godzilla heisei series, the ROM kaiju are scaled up, and Rebirth of Mothra 1 takes place 3 days after the events of Godzilla vs Destroyah.
20:53 Les: Since he never fought another monster, his other abilities are unknown, but they're probably *terrifying* *The video shows a shot of Eternal Mothra's adorable face*
This video was an absolute odyssey; I did most of my work on the script in 2020. Glad it's out in the world and all the set stories we uncovered can finally be told.
The 90's Mothra Trilogy is absolutely stunning. To this day, I think Toshiyuki Watanabe's musical scores are some of the best kaiju film scores out there.
Mothra Leo will always have a special place in my heart as I say the the trilogy and Godzilla vs mothra around the same time leading to me really liking him and his mother
Holy cow! Its been an eternity since we've seen a Kaiju Profile video! I was stoked to see this come up on my feed, especially since its one of my favorite Kaiju!
Finally this video came, Mothra Leo is genuinely cool and I hope we see him return whether through the monsterverse, a sequel to the upcoming “Godzilla Zero” movie, or just a entirely different movie. He’s incredibly overpowered and is a pretty cool kaiju especially with his various abilities, I also think Grand King Ghidorah is pretty underrated and is one of the better versions of Ghidorah
Awesome history lesson and breakdown! I like how they used ideas from some of the unmade films, never knew that. The death of Mothra in the first film is a very emotional and a well executed scene and the enemy kaiju are really cool. Pretty good trilogy as well despite being over saturated with beams haha.
Mothra and Jet Jaguar have always been my favorite zilla-universe monsters. Something about a peace oriented guardian beast is endearing, especially considering how often Mothra gets clapped by stronger monsters.
The rebirth of Mothra movies were definitely great Mothra movies. Mothra Leo was so powerful that he managed to defeat King Ghidorah in the final rebirth of Mothra movie. That alone means that Mothra Leo would give even Godzilla trouble if they ever fought. I really hope that Mothra gets another new movie in the future, whether in the monsterverse or by Toho.🦋 🐲🐉
HI WIKIZILLA, Its been a while! Great video on the Mothras from the Rebirth of Mothra trilogy! While it's clearly made for children, i still enjoyed these films with my brother and would recommend it to anyone whos a big fan to the giant moth. Love the look to Leo (especially armored mothra). He's quite the powerhouse, with abilities to face the deadly foes such as the Ghidorahs and Dahgara!!! Nicely done!!!
Gotta say I love Mothra Leo he is only Mothra I really like overall a powerful kaiju small but powerful with his broken plot armor or new forms are for whatever situation calls for it I love see him in monsterverse or future movies
Rainbow Mothra just got added to Battle Line, as well. Though, for some reason, he's not an evolution of Mothra Leo, instead being a separate unit that emphasizes his barrier ability by giving it to himself and other allied monsters around him.
19:29 he took one HELL of a beating and got ripped to shreds our adorable but brave little moth kaiju definitely deserved his 66 million years of sleep
People who say Mothra is one of the weakest Kaiju clearly ain’t never seen the Heisei Trilogy Movies, Leo goes full DBZ gets like 3 more forms each more powerful then the last, and if that’s still not enough this boi can time travel to beat you before you even existed now THATS nasty
Well, within the German dub it was just Mothra and was addressed as she completely throughout the trilogy. Within GMK there was a dubbing mistake, however. During the Yokoyama battle suddenly Mothra was here addressed as male.
I was always, every 2-3 weeks checking for a new video and I forgot and you suprised me with the Kaiju I was hoping for the most. Thanks again, another amazing Kaiju Profile.
To this day, Mothra Leo is my most favorite kaiju that Toho has ever created. With his Eternal form being one of the best designs I’ve ever seen, which I still would love to see get made as a figurine/statue at long last by Bandai, SH Monstersrts, X Plus, and many more. I hope to see both Mothra Leo & Battra return someday in a future Toho film, along with finally bringing Bagan, Gigamoth, & Mecha Mothra to life.
This definitely helps me see more about what makes mothra leo so powerful Like why not the strongest at the same time his different forms allow him to excel pretty high at whatever it is he needs to do melee range even aquatic combat However there's nothing here that really shows me the idea that mothra leo could actually beat burning Godzilla in a fight like how some people have suggested that is except for of course one ability Of course the one thing that probably makes this monster stand out above the rest or at least a good chunk of them is his time travel capabilities this is probably the single most devastating capability of this Kaiju that I've seen and even if burning Godzilla could defeat mothra Leo in his most powerful forms musculars intelligent enough that he would probably just go back in time and remove whatever factors took place that allowed Godzilla to become burning Godzilla maybe even just stop Godzilla from forming in the first place The only downside to this time travel capability is probably the laws of time itself After all in different eras with different fictions and timelines each time line seems to have their own rules on how time travel work so unless if it's mothra Leo time travel or back to the Future time travel this could very easily backfire on mothra Leo so this is a highly dangerous and highly calculated attack through Time Strong monster but not quite as strong as people I've tried to lead me to believe but I will keep my ears out for more information to see if this monster is even stronger than I currently think
7:54 that green leo-like mothra in the middle gives me a feeling that it could be the dominant male, an alpha in his own right over a mothra colony with another female being a queen. This ‘King’ may have been the strongest member of the colony, a warrior, leading them into battle as seen in when they were fighting desghidorah millions of years ago at 8:38. The queen would constantly lay eggs to add for the growing army as with other eusocial insects. Leo’s appearance makes me think he’s a dominant male but since he’s the last one, he will be king to no one.
Took you guys long enough! But I suppose it was worth the wait. That said, I assume we're going to wait even longer for the next Kaiju profile. But I suppose that will also be worth the wait.
I know they're a bit silly but I love the Heisei Mothra Trilogy and Mothra Leo is one of my favorite monsters. I seriously wish he got more love in media.
I love Eternal Leo Mothra, it’s wings are so beautiful…and he’s very floofy which is always a plus. I do wonder how he would look like in the Monsterverse
The greatest crime of the Godzilla Earth continuity is that it did not end with Leo emerging from his egg and finally defeating Godzilla. He and Haruo could've been bros! Especially if they applied the "all Mothras retain their ancestors' memories" angle.
Mothra Leo genuinely surprised me by how much of a powerhouse the guy is when I watched the mothra trilogy for the first time. Ironically he's the 1st son of a popular kaiju in this franchise to be stronger than his parent. (Zilla Jr being 2nd)

Fun fact Mothra leo was actually female in the first and third movie
"So what abilities should we give this new Mothra"
"Y E S"
Leo is literally:
"How I defeated Kaiju with the power of love."
Chapter 1: The power of love
Chapter 2: The power of laser beam spam
Chapter 3 time traveling samurai
That boy makes heisei Godzilla beam spam seems conservative lmao
He Literally is : BEAM SPAM GO the character
Yeah Leo is just a spammer against only prehistoric dragons
And that's why he's the best Mothra.
the power of love aka a fucking orbital strike

Yeah, I assume King Ghidorah reformed from that severed wing a week later and Eternal Mothra just evaporated him.

They might team up at some point in Godzilla Island (which is getting subtitled via the official English Godzilla channel soon).
I would too

Mothra Leo is a true Tokusatsu hero, cos he has like a hundred different powers and forms that he pulls out of his ass whenever needed
Sadly he so underused compare to the female version that is overused..
@@INFERNO95 And godzilla isn't overused compared to godzilla Jr and minilla who are both barely used? 😑.
Ooh! I’ve always loved this trilogy so much, it’s so underrated in my opinion and deserves more recognition than it gets.
Would you sonsider this as a good series compared to like the Godzilla heisei trilogy.I’m not going too high level like heisei gamera or something.
the Rebirth is kinda childish not gonna lie
@losethosechains Kinda agree, i heard the mothra 2 was awful tho
@@EryadeBeyond0825 The second one is the hardest to rewatch, but the first and third are great

You’re literally re- describing my situation that I mentioned in the comment
Mothra Leo is my favorite Kaiju in the Heisei era, he's so unique and very underrated...
It’s a she

Nice !! Hope for more Kaiju profile videos !!!
I like how Mothra Leo is built for maximum kaiju murdering potential
Yeah
Agreed. Also the Trilogy builds the lore, & explain's mysteries of Mothra.
The rebirth of Mothra movies were definitely great Mothra movies. Mothra Leo was so powerful that he managed to defeat King Ghidorah in the final rebirth of Mothra movie.

He’s mom show up and them up with Godzilla in the king of the monsters. So would not surprise if Leo show up in a movie again ❤
I hope the same people that are making Godzilla Minus One one day make a new Mothra movie!
I mean, his mother has a really great track record when it comes to kicking godzilla to the curb, so it should be no surprise
@@shotgun6XGMK:

Great to See WikiZilla Back after the full monsterverse story
Thank you so much for covering this kaiju! Mothra is my favorite Kaiju, and this is my favorite incarnation. He is quite underrated.
20:53 I'm glad other evil monsters didn't have to see the BAD side of Eternal Mothra now that would have been awesome and absolutely terrifying 😳
HI WIKIZILLA, Its been a while! Great video on the Mothras from the Rebirth of Mothra trilogy! While it's clearly made for children, i still enjoyed these films with my brother and would recommend it to anyone whos a big fan to the giant moth. Love the look to Leo (especially armored mothra). He's quite the powerhouse, with abilities to face the deadly foes such as the Ghidorahs and Dahgara!!! Nicely done!!!
This series of movies is one of my favorites for kaiju. I’m happy to see wikizilla giving it the atttention it deserves
That's why Toho wanna keep Mothra as female.... The male version is terrifying and OP in all aspect for the whole franchise.
I'VE always been a fan of Leo's first design the most as it makes him stand out alot from his mother
How about Krystalak and Obsidius next? I feel those two could really use some love, as arguably the standout game-exclusive Godzilla monsters.
Oh yeah that would be a cool video! But sadly I don’t see that coming soon
How about Kiyla? First ultra kaiju to be a profile vid?
I would want to see them too, but for game-exclusive Kaijus, the design, origins, and history about them is kinda vague.
@@shinhikaru how about krystalak and obsidius sharing the same video profile?
@@EryadeBeyond0825 they both originated from Space Godzilla. That's their origins, but still probably perfect for April Fools Kaiju Profile
You awakened my heart my man is back
Glad to get new videos, I love these!
Love the profile, guys!! I love the trilogy, and I have watched it!!! They are all good films, and I hope you do more kaiju profiles!
Gotta say I love Mothra Leo he is only Mothra I really like overall a powerful kaiju small but powerful with his broken plot armor or new forms are for whatever situation calls for it I love see him in monsterverse or future movies
FINALLYYY!!!!! Oh My God I’ve been waiting for a Heisei mothra kaiju profile!! 🦋🦋🧡☀️
YESSSSSSS FINALLY I WAS WAITING FOR THIS.
Finally new Kaiju Profile
I was just thinking the other day how long it’s been since one of these videos came out! Love them!
Rainbow Mothra just got added to Battle Line, as well. Though, for some reason, he's not an evolution of Mothra Leo, instead being a separate unit that emphasizes his barrier ability by giving it to himself and other allied monsters around him.
The trilogy made Mothra my favorite.
I really liked the "shounen protag" energy that Mothra Leo had. I hope we see him again sometime on the big screen.
19:29 he took one HELL of a beating and got ripped to shreds our adorable but brave little moth kaiju definitely deserved his 66 million years of sleep
I don't care what anybody says I absolutely loved the Mothra trilogy as a kid. Dogarah or however you spell it is amazing.
Finally, I was waiting for this one!
SPARKLING PILELOAD
I love all the gonzo attack names across kaiju films, but I think I found a new favorite
People who say Mothra is one of the weakest Kaiju clearly ain’t never seen the Heisei Trilogy Movies, Leo goes full DBZ gets like 3 more forms each more powerful then the last, and if that’s still not enough this boi can time travel to beat you before you even existed now THATS nasty

I can't wait to watch this trilogy. I bought it for my son a while back thinking we could watch it together, but it got lost somehow.
Keep up the great work 👍
My little sister adores Mothra Leo and the whole trilogy, I'll make sure to show her this
I wish this was a continuation of the hesei series. It would've been awesome to see Godzilla and Leo team up
“Mothra would be reborn, with beams… so many beams.”
NO WAY A NEW KAIJU PROFILE?!?!??
Waited for this for a long time.
Mothra and Mothra Leo will always be my favorite earth defending duo. ❤
Simple thing but I really like the editing at 0:40 of all of Leo’s different forms
This definitely helps me see more about what makes mothra leo so powerful
Like why not the strongest at the same time his different forms allow him to excel pretty high at whatever it is he needs to do melee range even aquatic combat
However there's nothing here that really shows me the idea that mothra leo could actually beat burning Godzilla in a fight like how some people have suggested that is except for of course one ability
Of course the one thing that probably makes this monster stand out above the rest or at least a good chunk of them is his time travel capabilities this is probably the single most devastating capability of this Kaiju that I've seen and even if burning Godzilla could defeat mothra Leo in his most powerful forms musculars intelligent enough that he would probably just go back in time and remove whatever factors took place that allowed Godzilla to become burning Godzilla maybe even just stop Godzilla from forming in the first place
The only downside to this time travel capability is probably the laws of time itself
After all in different eras with different fictions and timelines each time line seems to have their own rules on how time travel work so unless if it's mothra Leo time travel or back to the Future time travel this could very easily backfire on mothra Leo so this is a highly dangerous and highly calculated attack through Time
Strong monster but not quite as strong as people I've tried to lead me to believe but I will keep my ears out for more information to see if this monster is even stronger than I currently think
Thanks for posting! Getting serious Wikizilla withdrawal! XD

YOU FINALLY DID IT :D
My boy Mothra Leo! The only male moth
first :), you make good videos!
This some underrated stuff
Finalmente um vídeo falando sobre Mothra leo
I kind of wish Mothra can be this powerful in future incarnations, it feels more godly if she could dish out as much energy damage as Godzilla
mothra is my fav kaiju. thanks for this vid!
The greatest crime of the Godzilla Earth continuity is that it did not end with Leo emerging from his egg and finally defeating Godzilla. He and Haruo could've been bros! Especially if they applied the "all Mothras retain their ancestors' memories" angle.
Always fun to wake up or return from school and instantly learn a new godzilla kaiju.
