!!Heisei Continuity
* The lack of aliens in this canon often lead to fans having the extinction-event causing asteroid heading to Earth in ''Godzilla vs. Mothra'' to be the real, alien King Ghidorah and the Futurian monster was a duplicate.
* Fan projects very frequently make the Rebirth of Mothra series a sequel to the Heisei saga, with Mothra Leo's mother being the very same Mothra who fought Godzilla years earlier.
** Likewise, when the Shobijin in Godzilla continuities are given individual names, Moll and Lora from the Rebirth series are used.
* Because the Futurians remarked that Godzilla never destroyed Japan and the series ends with the docile Godzilla Junior taking on the mantle, post-Heisei saga fan projects often have Junior remain a benign and heroic version.
