* Before Tyrantis returns, it's Tyranta, Gorgolisk, and Promythigor are the last ones standing as the rest of the kaiju are brought down. Then our hero arrives, sending wave after wave of healing Yamaneon energy, bringing every kaiju back to their prime and even giving [=MechaTyrantis=] his full original organic body back, making him the Terror once more. He doesn't even roar at Pathogen, he just [[PowerWalk marches towards it with determination in his eyes.]]

*** That last moment deserves extra mention for being two homages in one and then some. In keeping with the fight between Tyrantis and Promythigor having several nods to King Kong's various films, it's basically the moment where Kong slides down a mountain to slam into Godzilla in ''Film/KingKongVersusGodzilla'', except inverting the two sides in the PrimateVersusReptile rivalry. But what's more, Tyrantis sliding on his tail to kick the big monkey with both feet is ''also'' a reference to the infamous tail-slide Godzilla himself used twice in ''Film/GodzillaVersusMegalon'', which was (by his own admission) the very first ''Godzilla'' film the novels' author watched and the one that cemented his love of reptiles, kaiju, and monster movies in general. And the best part? Whereas Godzilla's tail slide in the film has been ridiculed for coming out of nowhere and having little buildup or justification, Tyrantis' use of this move fits right in with the current context ''and'' makes perfect sense with his character trait of taking advantage of circumstance to gain the edge in battle. In short, that whole moment is NarmCharm at its absolute best, and a perfect testament to William Cope's skills as a writer, both of BehemothBattle scenes and in general.
