YMMV / Abraxas: The Clash of Silver

• Catharsis Factor:
  • Walter Simmons being killed by his own Mechagodzilla under near-identical circumstances to in Godzilla vs. Kong is just as satisfying here as it was in the movie after all his crimes and egotism.
  • After the Zmeyevich-controlled Mechagodzilla has gleefully devastated the whole of Hong Kong, brutalized both Godzilla and Monster X, and seemingly destroyed the more benevolent Kiryu, it's pretty satisfying when Kong, Godzilla and Monster X working together turn the tide and begin scrapping it, with the Zmeyevich minds inside the Mecha screaming in terror before Kong rips the Mecha's head away.
• Complete Monster: Walter Simmons, corporate director of Apex Cybernetics, is as vile as his MonsterVerse counterpart, and then some. An ambitious narcissist who feels challenged because humanity isn't the top dominant species, Simmons seeks to conquer all the emergent Titans on his terms, with his company on top. To this end, Simmons uses subterfuge to provoke Godzilla and the pacified Titans into rampaging in multiple cities so as to turn public opinion against them, and he orders his daughter's assassination to protect his secrets. Simmons intentionally endangers millions of people in Hong Kong so that he can have Mechagodzilla kill and usurp Godzilla under the guise of saving humanity, planning to afterwards enslave, lobotomize, and harvest Godzilla's allies for resources. When Ren Serizawa punches Simmons, Simmons orders that Bernie Hayes be taken away and shot just because he was present, and he tries to fry Ren's brain via forcibly connecting him to Mechagodzilla, taunting Ren about how the Mecha is going to kill the very same Titan who Ren's father sacrificed his life to save.
