** ActionMum: Mothra, Ogra and Jirass, the latter even being killed by Godzilla in defence of her eggs.
** DarkActionGirl: Kamacuras, Kumonga and the Vagnosaurus matriarch are all also very powerful fighters but are more malevolent than the others.

**Titanosaurus is never mind-controlled like in his original movie and he even seems more outright benevolent as he comes to aid of the inhabitants of Mu and fights Godzilla himself to save the island.
**Gorosaurus was an enemy of King Kong originally, albeit only an animal. Here, he is Kong’s closest ally.
**In their movie debut, the Seatopians were a villainous species who attacked humanity with Megalon. Here, they are fairly friendly creatures who shelter the humans who land on Mu.
**Ebirah is traditionally a villain. Here, he fights against humanity to defend Mu, though is ultimately forced to retreat thanks to Godzilla.

**The entries from the Mothra larvae through to Mothra has Jyarumu.
**The entries from Skull Island through to Godzuki have the Vagnosaurs in the past and Godzilla in the present.
**The entries from Varan to Kumonga have Kumonga.
**The entries from Mu through to Titanosaurus actually have the UN, whose decisions risk destroying Mu though the Atragon’s crew is the DragonInChief. However, [[Main/HijackedByGanon Godzilla takes over]] in the arc’s final stages.

* CliffHanger: [[Season 1 ends on one, with Godzilla, Anguirus, Rodan, Kong and King Ghidorah transported somewhere not on Earth by the Oxygen Destroyer's odd reaction with the latter's body and Skull Island going to hell with only the remaining Gorosaurs and Mothra larvae able to help due to every other Kaiju being dead, MIA or dormant.]]

* RockMonster: Anguirus, Baragon and some of skull island's creatures are "Biolithic" which means at least 70% of their bodies is composed of minerals.

* TurtleIsland: This incarnation of the lost continent of Mu is an utterly colossal filter-feeding ''Anomalocaridid'' kaiju that has a unique ecosystem inside and outside it's body and also serves as a nesting ground to other kaiju.
* WalkingWasteland

* XenoNucleicAcid: [[spoiler:The original generation of kaiju (which Godzilla, Ghidorah and Anguirus are a part of) have radiation based cell structures, when earth's chemical based life appeared some of them managed to assimilate their DNA, allowing them to become kaiju as well]].

* BlackAndGrayMorality: Godzilla is a protector of earth but he's also a vicious, destructive predator who'll devour other kaiju who aren't even harming anyone. [[spoiler: His ArchEnemy King Ghidorah on the other hand, is a sadistic destroyer who intends to wipe out all life on earth]].

**DarkActionGirl: Kamacuras, Kumonga and the Vagnosaurus matriarch are all also very powerful fighters but are more malevolent than the others.

** Jyarumu absorbs ambient heat and energy within a kilometre of himself causing it to become a frigid wasteland.

* {{Planimal}}: Biollante is an ancient being containing DNA from many plants and animals, in fact it's theorized that she may be some kind of genetic library for all life on earth.

* DeathWorld" Skull Island has large deposits of radioactive minerals on it [[ILoveNuclearPower which allows]] for a large population of kaijuform prehistoric species and even many of the (comparatively) smaller creatures can be pretty nasty.

* HeroKiller: [[spoiler:By the end of the first season Ghidorah had killed the Adult Mothra, King Caesar, Titanosaurus, Zilla, Komodithrax, the male Manda, Radon, Varan and two of the Gorosaurus pack]].

* RoguesGalleryTransplant: Kumonga, a Godzilla villain, has yet to actually fight the Big G, now being an enemy of Varan, Komodithrax and Baragon.

* BizarreAlienBiology: Taken to an extreme level, the kaiju all have extremely strange physiologies such as Anguirus's three brains or Rodan's turbine-like respiratory system. The various fauna on skull island are somewhat more mundane but not by much.

* CompositeCharacter: Godzilla's general body shape is reminiscent of the Monsterverse incarnation but the shape of his head and snout invokes the [[Anime/GodzillaPlanetOfTheMonsters anime version]] while his long tail, [[https://www.deviantart.com/transapient/art/KR-Godzilla-Sketches-798801945 nictitating membranes and splitting lower jaw]] are from Film/ShinGodzilla.

* GentleGiant: Mothra, her larvae and Titanosuarus are fairly peaceful for kaiju while Baragon and Anguirus are [[DownplayedTrope downplayed examples]] as their aggression is listes as medium and they typically won't seek out conflict but are very violent if provoked. Some of the large herbivorus creatures of skull island also qualify.

* HeroKiller: [[spoiler:By the end of the first season Ghidorah had killed the Adult Mothra, King Caesar, Titanosuarus, Zilla, Komodithrax, the male Manda, Radon, Varan and two of the Gorosuarus pack]].

* CruelElephant: The [[https://www.deviantart.com/transapient/art/Kaiju-Revolution-SKULL-ISLAND-MENAGERIE-3-775614294 Diretherium]] is a species of elephant kaiju native to skull island that appear to be in a permanent state of musth, making highly aggressive towards anything and everything around them.

* HatePlague: The monster Jyraumu gives off prion-like particles that induce a rabies-like effect in humans and animals, according to his bio even ''he'' isn't immune to it but his species has evolved to [[TheBerserker embrace the frenzied aggression it causes]]. The only thing that can counteract it are the scales that drop from Mothra's wings.

* TimeAbyss: Many kaiju have been around since prehistoric times but [[spoiler:Godzilla, Anguirus and.King Ghidorah take it much further as they lived during the Hadean Eon, making them the oldest form of life on the planet]].

* HeroKiller: [[spoiler:By the end of the first season Ghidorah had killed the Adult Mothra, King Caesar, Titanosuarus, Zilla, Varan and two of the Gorosuarus pack]].
* MultipleHeadCase: [[spoiler:King Ghidorah's heads]] each have a different personality. The center head is dominant and the most intelligent, the right head is the [[TheBrute most aggressive]] (to the point that it sometimes attacks against the middle head's wishes) and the left head appears to be the embodiment of [[spoiler:Ghidorah's]] [[WhatHaveIBecome self-loathing]] has it will frequently nip at his body in disgust.

* WorldBuilding: A series of illustrations referred to as "Skull Island Menagerie" were released detailing some of the various plant amd animals living on the eponymous island.
