Re: Best And Worst Official Kaiju Redesigns
Saying MV Ghidorah is a de-mystified incarnation of the character is like saying that the Confederacy didn't have slaves.

Re: Best And Worst Official Kaiju Redesigns
So… saying that MV Ghidorah is de-mystified is akin to denying a centuries-long atrocity? Bad take to say the least.
His appearance certainly loses the mystic charm.

Toho Kingdom is fucking wild because you can say shit like this and not have metaphorical tomatoes thrown at you.
What was your thought process writing this and posting this.

Re: Best And Worst Official Kaiju Redesigns
I mean, I don't know how you can look at THIS incarnation of Ghidorah and say he lost a "mystic" charm.
MV gave Ghidorah an aura of intimidation he has not had since his original appearance, the embodiment of what Ghidorah was meant to be.

Re: Best And Worst Official Kaiju Redesigns
My apologies. I genuinely did not mean anything distasteful. I simply meant that MV Ghidorah being a de-mystified incarnation is an egregiously factually incorrect statement that can be easily disproven. It's extremely late where I am, and this is why I should not respond to wild takes this late at night.
And I do believe I am getting metaphorical tomatoes thrown at me.

I just love how mythical and divine the Showa design is, and i guess I base every KG design on how I love the showa one

This panel from one of Dark Horse's Godzilla comics might not have been intended to be a redesign but it does look different enough from any Godzilla to count for me. It takes all my problems with the Kawakita Heisei design and throws them out the window, leaving only the good stuff.

That illustration actually predates Kawakita's Godzilla films by around two years, as the comic it was featured in was released in 1987.Cryptid_Liker wrote: ↑Tue Apr 05, 2022 6:38 am This panel from one of Dark Horse's Godzilla comics might not have been intended to be a redesign but it does look different enough from any Godzilla to count for me.

Nah for real, Toho, take some notes from this panel for that upcoming Showa Era Anime I’m hoping for

Re: Best And Worst Official Kaiju Redesigns
You see, I don’t like how the MV Ghidorah is passed off as something greater, something divine and mystical, yet his design doesn’t portray it. Hence why I like Showa and Heisei more. Showa’s design fits the grandiose, space-destroyer character he is, and Heisei Ghidorah’s demystified design fits his demystified character.
MV tries to be one, but his design serves the other. I hope that gives an explanation.

Re: Best And Worst Official Kaiju Redesigns
Ghidorah is portrayed in the MV as something alien. An invasive being that doesn't fit the natural order, and the aura of evil it gives off I think serves it quite well. I don't know how you can look at something like this and not see a larger than life quality to it.Voyager wrote: ↑Mon Apr 18, 2022 3:08 pm You see, I don’t like how the MV Ghidorah is passed off as something greater, something divine and mystical, yet his design doesn’t portray it.

The design to me is the scariest Ghidorah has ever been portrayed visually.

Re: Best And Worst Official Kaiju Redesigns
I’m personally on the side of the MV gave us the Ghidorah that we were promised since GTTHD. MV Ghidorah potential was done perfectly as a World conqueror and an invasive species from the stars.Voyager wrote: ↑Mon Apr 18, 2022 3:08 pm You see, I don’t like how the MV Ghidorah is passed off as something greater, something divine and mystical, yet his design doesn’t portray it.

I do agree with your statement that it looks too much that it’s from earth rather than space, but I think this is a safe bet they did rather than going full out on the alien design
