* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Though the ending seems pretty climactic, this film was never meant to be the last entry in the Showa era; a number of attempts at continuing the series were carried out through the remainder of the 1970's and into the 1980's, but never managed to progress much further than the concept stage. Some of the more notable casualties of this period are 1977's ''[[https://wikizilla.org/wiki/Godzilla_Legend:_The_Asuka_Fortress Godzilla Legend: The Asuka Fortress]]'', 1979's ''[[https://wikizilla.org/wiki/A_Space_Godzilla A Space Godzilla]]'' - which happened to be preserved after making the jump from film to short story - and the [[https://wikizilla.org/wiki/Resurrection_of_Godzilla_(1980) 1980]] and [[https://wikizilla.org/wiki/Resurrection_of_Godzilla_(1983) 1983]] concepts for ''Resurrection of Godzilla'', which were the first attempts at introducing Bagan to the franchise.

Even ''King of the Monsters: The Rebirth of Godzilla'', an intended remake of ''Film/Godzilla1954'' was considered, but didn't go beyond a screenplay.

Either from the force of the explosion or from the fire itself, Toru Kawai was startled by what happened, giving Godzilla an extremely apropos moment of freaking out in the final product!

* FranchiseKiller: The film's low box office attendance marked the end of the 21 years long original Showa series run, and put the overall ''Godzilla'' film franchise on ice for nearly a decade, before it was revived with the beginning of the Heisei series in 1984. Notably, this may be more coincidental than it seems, as throughout the rest of the 1970's and into the 1980's, several proposals for additional films were prepared and written, but [[{{Vaporware}} none managed to get past pre-production]].

* RefittedForSequel: Some of the elements in this film may have been used from the original concept of the original ''Film/Godzilla1954'': An old scientist discovers an undiscovered ancient beast near Japan, reveals to be a MadScientist, sabotage the military's efforts to defeat the rampaging creature, and his daughter thwarting his plans as this is going on.

* EditedForSyndication: The television cut by UPA, which was chosen for the Classic Media DVD release as the included english version. While not {{Bowdlerized}} to the same extent as the theatrical release (there's a shot of Katsura's bare breasts that was edited out, and nothing else), this version also adds a bizarre prologue with narration recapping the past Godzilla films over stock footage of the other two Godzilla films UPA had the rights to (''Film/InvasionOfAstroMonster'' and ''Film/AllMonstersAttack''. Since the latter was itself a StockFootage-filled movie, this meant they were also using footage from ''Film/EbirahHorrorOfTheDeep'' and ''Film/SonOfGodzilla'').
