8 | [[folder: Anguirus]] |
9 | |
10 | !!Anguirus |
11 | |
12 | The faithful Russian sidekick to Godzilla 2000. |
13 | |
14 | ------ |
15 | |
16 | * BadassNormal: Less so than Gorosaurus, but he still counts due to having no real powers. His spikes, however, are fairly unusual. |
17 | * TheBrute: He tends to be this. |
18 | * CompositeCharacter: While he's not the first Anguirus, he still has his Millenium look and shares the history of all his film appearances but the first. |
19 | * DumbMuscle: He's not dumb, per say, but he is kind of dim. |
20 | * {{Expy}}: His personality and voice is entirely cribbed from [[VideoGame/TeamFortress2 the Heavy.]] |
21 | * InterspeciesRomance: After the sixth arc, he has one with Nekku, an Aurorus. |
22 | * LegacyCharacter: He's the second Anguirus, after the first one was killed off by Godzilla in ''Raids Again''. |
23 | * MakeMeWannaShout: One of his powers is the sonic roar from the video games. |
24 | * MotherRussiaMakesYouStrong: He's very proud of his Russian heritage. VERY. |
25 | * PowerTrio: This is more prominent in the sixth arc, as he makes up the muscle part with Godzilla and Rodan. |
26 | * SpectacularSpinning: Another signature ability is that he can roll up into a spiked ball. |
27 | * TheSpiny: Just look at his back! |
28 | * ThoseTwoGuys: With Rodan, actually. |
29 | * UndyingLoyalty: To Godzilla, out of all the kaiju. |

32 | [[/folder]] |
33 | |
34 | [[folder: Rodan]] |
35 | |
36 | !!Rodan |
37 | |
38 | One of the older members of the the island and one of Godzilla's closest confidants. |
39 | |
40 | ------ |
41 | |
42 | * BewareTheNiceOnes: Sure, he's pretty laid-back, but in battle, he is utterly merciless. |
43 | * BlowYouAway: His hurricane winds and sonic booms come into play. |
44 | * BreathWeapon: His uranium beam. |
45 | * CompositeCharacter: He may be the Showa Rodan with the Millennium look and continued history. As for the Heisei incarnation, there was another Rodan that gave his life to help Godzilla's father and his powers were also transferred to the original Rodan. Confusing, right? |
46 | * DiedHappilyEverAfter: Averted. He survived despite planning on dying with his mate a long time ago. |
47 | * {{Expy}}: His personality, voice, and even skills are cribbed from [[VideoGame/TeamFortress2 the Engineer.]] |
48 | * GadgeteerGenius: A new take on his character, in which he mostly works with BambooTechnology to work out ways to escape the island. |
49 | ** BunglingInventor: This doesn't always go well, even when given new resources on Egg Island. Sure, he was able to make the Rodan Van, but the bomb he made was a dud. |
50 | * GiantFlyer: And a fast one, at that! |
51 | * HeartbrokenBadass: Sure, he's usually pretty calm, but he still is mourning his dead mate. |
52 | * InterspeciesRomance: Eventually, after the sixth arc, he's in a relationship with [[WesternAnimation/GodzillaTheSeries Quetzalcoatl.]] |
53 | * LightningBruiser: His signature ability comes in his raw speed in the air, which can knock over most opponents. |
54 | ** LoveAtFirstPunch: After they came into blows after he accidentally stumbled onto her nest to boot. |
55 | * MadScientist: Shows signs of this in the sixth arc, as he's pretty cavalier about possibly blowing up Egg Island just to take out Dogolas. |
56 | * PowerTrio: With Godzilla and Anguirus, as TheSmartGuy. |
57 | * ThoseTwoGuys: With Anguirus. |
58 | |
59 | |
60 | [[/folder]] |
61 | |
62 | [[folder: Gorosaurus]] |
63 | |
64 | !!Gorosaurus |
65 | |
66 | Usually the one keeping the most rowdy kaijus in line, especially Varan and Baragon. |
67 | |
68 | ------ |
69 | |
70 | * AscendedExtra: Not usually the most talked about or interesting kaijus, but he does get a sort of mini-arc in the Legends of Kaiju arc. |
71 | * BadassNormal: How so? He took out an empowered Razin with ONE. KANGAROO KICK. |
72 | * DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu: Razin has just been empowered with the souls of the dead and your very friends are being absorbed. What do you do? Kangaroo kick the stomach of that bastard! And it works! |
73 | * DumbDinos: His bio states that he may look the part of this, but he's anything but that. |
74 | * IJustWantToBeSpecial: He feels really overshadowed by everyone else in terms of abilities and powers. However, he proves his mettle in the fifth arc at last. |
75 | * InterspeciesRomance: He has a huge crush on Manda, which only grows due to her supporting him when he's at his lowest. They become an OfficialCouple at the end of the fifth arc. |
76 | * {{Jawbreaker}}: As in canon, he was at the receiving end by King Kong at one point. |
77 | * NiceGuy: His own doubts about his self-worth aside, he's pretty jovial and laid-back. |
78 | * PalsWithJesus: Since Manda is technically a goddess. |
79 | ** DivineDate: Upgrades into this. |
80 | * TeamDad: Especially in regards to Varan and Baragon. |
81 | |

84 | |
85 | [[folder: King Caesar]] |
86 | |
87 | !!King Caesar |
88 | |
89 | Not a resident of the island, but a frequent visitor. |
90 | |
91 | ------ |
92 | |
93 | * AngryGuardDog: Usually, he's this to the Azumi family, but it is shown that he can leave on his own in times of crisis. |
94 | * AttackReflector: His eyes can absorb beams and shoot them back at full force. |
95 | * BareFistedMonk: As in canon, his fists are as strong as Godzilla's atomic breath. |
96 | * BewareTheNiceOnes: In battle, he's an utter terror despite his calm and collected usual demeanor. |
97 | * CassandraTruth: Downplayed. He's the first to call out the Legendary Kaijus on their behavior and intentions, but he's brushed off by them and is frustrated to see everyone else going along for the ride. However, he is also curious to see how this will play out. Sure enough, everything falls apart... |
98 | * CompositeCharacter: He has his Millennium appearance, but all his character's history, Showa and all. |
99 | * CoolOldGuy: There's a reason Godzilla calls him sensei. |
100 | * HumbleHero: He admits that he's not too powerful or wise as some see him as. |
101 | * KingOfBeasts: He is a rather large Shisha, a lion-like guardian. |
102 | * LightningBruiser: Despite being a giant, he's quite quick on his feet. |
103 | * MagicalAsian: Has many traits, such as being the wisest of the kaiju and being quite ancient. However, he admits that he's not that wise and deep. |
104 | |

107 | |
108 | [[folder: Manda]] |
109 | |
110 | !!Manda |
111 | |
112 | Once the ruler of Mu, she now is a permanent resident of the island and one of the calmer inhabitants. |
113 | |
114 | ------ |
115 | |
116 | * AntiVillain: She was this when Mu was around. In fact, while she enjoyed the attention and worship, she was very uncomfortable with being used as their means of taking over the world. |
117 | * ArchEnemy: She broke off from being peaceful on Monster Island just so she could get another crack at defeating the Atragon during the start of the Final Wars. It ended badly, but she survived with a healthy hatred of the thing. |
118 | * CompositeCharacter: He has all her film appearances histories (barring her death in Final Wars), but keeps her Millennium look. |
119 | * GrievousHarmWithABody: Her main form of attack involves constriction. |
120 | * HeelFaceTurn: She was never a bad kaiju to begin with anyway. |
121 | * IdenticalStranger: Nearly this with Sue. Both of them notice this, but try to ignore it. |
122 | * InterspeciesRomance: By the end of Legends of Kaiju, she gladly reciprocates Gorosaurus' crush on her. |
123 | * KillItWithIce: She HATES the cold, as the Atragon/Gontengo can tell you. |
124 | * ManOnFire: She can actually weaponize this if super-heated just right, turning her into a living snake-like being of fire. |
125 | * OurDragonsAreDifferent: She's a Chinese-Dragon type of goddess. |
126 | * PalsWithJesus: Gorosaurus with her. Turns into a DivineDate eventually. |
127 | * SeaMonster: She's closer to this than a dragon. |
128 | * ShesAManInJapan: This is one of those continuities where she is female. |
129 | * TeamMom: Occasionally shares this role with Mothra and Gorosaurus' TeamDad tendencies. |
130 | * UnexplainedRecovery: She was shattered by the Atragon in Final Wars, so it can be assumed that their battle ended differently here, though she still lost. |
131 | |

134 | |
135 | [[folder: Varan]] |
136 | |
137 | !!Varan |
138 | |
139 | A frequent trouble-maker around the island. |
140 | |
141 | ------ |
142 | |
143 | * AscendedExtra: After his film debut and cameo in ''Destroy All Monsters'', he gets a prominent role here. |
144 | * BreathWeapon: It's rumored he can shoot sonic waves from his mouth, in tandem with his Unleashed appearance. |
145 | * GiantFlyer: Really, a glider, but this counts. |
146 | * RedOniBlueOni: The Blue Oni to Baragon's Red. He's much more rational and cautious than his partner. |
147 | * SparedByTheAdaptation: He survived the bombings to his mouth from the original film. |
148 | * SpinAttack: Sharing this ability from his game appearances, he can roll up into a ball and hit people with his spikes. |
149 | * TheSpiny: It's stated that those spikes of his are sharp enough to pierce through most hides. |
150 | * ThoseTwoGuys: With Baragon. |

155 | [[folder: Baragon]] |
156 | |
157 | !!Baragon |
158 | |
159 | Varan's best friend and usually the one to start the trouble they get themselves into. |
160 | |
161 | ------ |
162 | |
163 | * BreathWeapon: He can breathe fire, as in the games. |
164 | ** PlayingWithFire |
165 | * CompositeCharacter: He's the Showa version, but with his GMK look. |
166 | * LighterAndSofter: Very much so, considering his last incarnations involved him ravaging the countryside and simply being involved in GMK. Still, this is his Showa incarnation. |
167 | * RedOniBlueOni: The Red one to Varan's blue, as he's more reckless and prone to getting into trouble. |
168 | * ThoseTwoGuys: With Varan |
169 | * TunnelKing: For example, he traps Razin in place by burrowing under him, even breathing fire underneath his legs, before he's brought down. |
170 | ** DishingOutDirt |

177 | !!Ebirah |
178 | |
179 | A very grumpy lobster mutation that likes to keep to himself in the waters of the island. |
180 | |
181 | ------ |
182 | |
183 | * AdaptationalHeroism: Barely, if any, incarnation of the franchise casts him as a somebody to help out Big G. Granted, he's not exactly pleasant here. |
184 | * AnArmAndALeg: He lost his arm to Godzilla's father a long time ago. |
185 | * AngryGuardDog: He was once this to the Red Bamboo and he hated every moment of it, due to him seeing them as weak. |
186 | * CompositeCharacter: He's both the Showa and Millennium versions due to going through all that havoc (and surviving being hit with atomic breath), but he keeps his Millennium look. |
187 | * GiantEnemyCrab: Well, a lobster here. |
188 | * GrumpyOldMan: Acts like this a lot. |
189 | * HeelFaceTurn: Since his time with the Red Bamboo and Xiliens, anyway. Not that he asked to be part of any side to begin with. |
190 | * InferioritySuperiorityComplex: It's stated that, due to his status as a D-List kaiju, he's rather angry at everything and frequently puts others down. |
191 | * ScrewPolitenessImASenior: Much to everyone's ire. |
192 | * TheSocialDarwinist: His beef with the Red Bamboo? They were weak. Oh, and they used him. |
193 | * SparedByTheAdaptation: Being blasted by Godzilla's atomic breath in Final Wars wasn't enough to keep him down. Possibly, Hedorah took the brunt of it all. |
194 | * TokenEvilTeammate: Out of all the Monster Island residents, he's the most antagonistic, yet he still comes along to help. |
195 | * TurnedAgainstTheirMasters: Despite having mutated him into what he is, he wasted no time turning on them when the chemicals that kept him at bay were removed. |

203 | |
204 | Godzilla's dullard adoptive son. |
205 | |
206 | ------ |
207 | |
208 | * BreathWeapon: His smoke rings. |
209 | * CompositeCharacter: If you can believe it. He's simply the Showa version, but he has the same voice actor from Godzilla's Revenge, which took place in a child's head, we should add. |
210 | * GoodIsDumb: He's sweet, but REALLY dim. |
211 | * HappilyAdopted |
212 | * ShipTease: Possibly with Fairy Mothra. The apple doesn't really fall far from the tree. |
213 | * WellDoneSonGuy: He really tries to make his dad happy. |

224 | ------ |
225 | |
226 | * DamselInDistress: Becomes this when captures by Snippit. |
227 | * DeadpanSnarker: Sometimes. |
228 | * LittleMissSnarker |
229 | * NiceGirl: A trait he gets from her mother. |

237 | !!Kiryu |
238 | |
239 | An enforcer that makes sure the kaijus stay on Monster Island. He has been rebuilt with the interests of serving Japamerica...yeah, he's a bit crazy in that way. |
240 | |
241 | ------ |
242 | |
243 | * AnIcePerson: His most powerful move is the [[ChestBlaster Absolute]] [[FreezeRay Zero Cannon.]] |
244 | * BerserkButton: [[Series/PowerRangersOperationOverdrive Operation Overdrive,]] for starters. And then there's showing him anything remotely resembling the Oxygen Destroyer. |
245 | * BigDamnHeroes: He pulls this one Godzilla and Balkzardan for the sake of Japan when they appear on the mainland. |
246 | ** He does it again when he's rebuilt by Kitsune in Babylon Gardens, where he stops Destiny long enough for her to be taken out by Godzilla and Mothra. |
247 | * BreathWeapon: The masers in his mouth are rather effective. |
248 | * BunnyEarsLawyer: He can be a bit silly when it comes to defending...ahem...Japamerica. |
249 | * CoolSword: His electric blade is nothing to scoff at. Against Zach, this proved useful. |
250 | * {{Cyborg}} |
251 | * EagleLand: Due to being rebuilt in a joint operation between Japan and the U.S, he's very convinced that there is such thing as a Japamerica and that he has to defend it. |
252 | * {{Expy}}: Down to the theme and even the Flash Kick move, he's a stand-in for [[Franchise/StreetFighter Guile]]. |
253 | * GlassCannon: Eventually, this shows in his battle with Zach, as when the other kaiju gains the other hand, he's taken apart. |
254 | * HauntedTechnology: The original 154 Godzilla resides in him, still speaking and a good influence on his berserk state. |
255 | * HeroAntagonist: He's this in the first part of the fifth arc, going up against Godzilla and Balkzardan when they arrive at Japan. |
256 | * HumongousMecha |
257 | * LightningBruiser: With the use of his jet thrusters and such, he can be this. |
258 | * MacrossMissileMassacre: He does this quite a bit. |
259 | * RobotMe: This to Godzilla. |
260 | * SealedInsideAPersonShapedCan: The spirit of the original 1954 Godzilla resides in him, thanks to his bones being used to make the machine (?!). He's still quite wrathful after all this time. |
