*** Adding more info to this film, it was aiming for a release for 1975, which would have made it one of the later films of the Godzilla Showa era instead of ''Film/{{Terror of Mechagodzilla}}, and didn't even have a real title outside of "Godzilla vs. Hedorah II". The films most noticeable aspect was that the battle wasn't suppose to be set in Japan, but in Africa, with Banno stating that "if these chaotic, dynamic countries developed a little further, it wouldn't be implausible for Hedorah to show up there". Tomoyuki Tanaka was unpleased with the product, and forced Banno out of the director's chair, thus relegating the film to quite an expansive trail of films which were meant to continue the Showa series past 1975, but never quite made the cut.

Moved from Godzilla.

* PropRecycling: The Godzilla suit from ''Film/InvasionOfAstroMonster'' was used for the scene where Hedorah drenches Godzilla in muck. The flying Godzilla prop was the same prop used when Godzilla was held in the Xilians' energy bubble, also from ''Invasion of Astro-Monster''.

** A Yoshimitsu Banno had thought ahead when writing this film, as he had already prepared a treatment for a sequel idea before that was originally planned to by the time of this film's release, which would have had Godzilla fight a new Hedorah - this was even alluded to at the end of the film with "''And Yet Another One?''"
