Favorite non-human character
I don't mean kaiju, but aliens, androids, and the like. Which ones are the best or most memorable to you?

Re: Favorite non-human character
The Shobijin, easily. The Controller of Planet X is a close second, though, for mostly nostalgic reasons.

Re: Favorite non-human character
Might sound too obvious but I gotta go with the Shobijin, always loved the mystical element of them acting as sentinels and translators to Mothra. Besides that I always liked how hammy the black hole Alien leader was in GvMG, his enthusiasm when he gets to reveal Mechagodzilla is so priceless.

The Xillien commander from Final Wars is still my favorite. Love his cocky demeanor and childish temper tantrums.

That alien guy from Mechagodzilla's counterattack. I love his his goofy presence and uniform. Not to mention his epic jump after taunting the protagonists to shoot him.

Re: Favorite non-human character
For me it's the Shobijin. They had lovely voices, and were beautiful.
I also like the Controller of Planet X. He's so sure and arrogant, and believes nothing can stop his plans. When he's proven wrong, he won't allow himself to be destroyed by humanity; He does it himself.

Definitely the Controller of Planet X, because I'm a sucker for Yoshio Tsuchiya's eccentric performances.

Re: Favorite non-human character
She was human, but was briefly taken over by a Venusian so...it kinda counts?

Re: Favorite non-human character
She'd been taken over by her alien side to the point where she identified as a Venusian even when hypnotized. I say she counts.

Tokyo, a smoldering memorial to the unknown, an unknown which at this very moment still prevails and could at any time lash out with its terrible destruction anywhere else in the world.

Re: Favorite non-human character
Kuronuma from GvsMG always one of my favorites even as a kid. He really stands out with that metallic black scale plating on his sleeves, metallic-green patch around his eye and an ape-head belt buckle. He exudes this aura of smug arrogance while remaining cool and collected, often sipping on wine or smoking a cigar. He only ever really got mad or panicked when MechaGodzilla was about to get it's head wrenched off. Definitely one of the most memorable villains in the franchise.
Honestly, the Black Hole Aliens in general are cool. I really dig their chrome aesthetic that's present in both their clothing and machinery. The green skin and black fur of their true form contrasts nicely with the aforementioned chrome.

Re: Favorite non-human character
M-11 from GvsKG has always been a favorite, I love how cheeky he is when he is reprogrammed, plus that run during the car chase always makes me chuckle
If I had to pick an alien it would hands down have to be Kuronuma, he has such a old school bond villain feel to him almost always having a cigar in his hand or having a glass of wine with one of his fucking hostages before double crossing and trying to kill them, plus he has one of the best and most gruesome non-kaiju related deaths in any of the Godzilla films, g-rated blood or not

Re: Favorite non-human character
Do humans-turned gas men count? Because Mizuno (Yoshio Tsuchiya) from The Human Vapor is pretty fascinating.
