* SympathyForTheDevil: Downplayed in that he's more of an antihero in this film, but near the end, Dayo expresses feeling sympathy for Godzilla and not wishing to see him come to any harm when the island is set to explode. This prompts all the people to call to him to get off the island before it's too late while they're being carried away by Mothra, and they're happy when they see he does.

* BreatherEpisode: The film takes place after the DarkerAndEdgier ''Film/InvasionOfAstroMonster'', and while the film does have its dark moments, it's not overshadowed by an AlienInvasion with three monsters, and two StarCrossedLovers ends in a tragedy (for the male's LoveInterest).

* SuperPoweredShrimp: Ebirah is a kaiju-sized shrimp that is controlled by the [[FarEastAsianTerrorists Red Bamboo]] as a bodyguard and warden to keep their slaves on the island. [[spoiler: Outside of its size, it has little else going for it, leaving it the victim of a CurbStompBattle from Godzilla.]]

** This also extends to other actions scenes. The first fight with Ebirah has a sequence in which Godzilla is pulled underwater and the film plays this up as a threat. For Kong, drowning would be an issue. Not so much for the amphibious Godzilla.

* OutOfCharacter: Godzilla's behavior patterns. This is clearly evident when he first sees Dayo, and he certainly did not care about humans since his first appearance in ''Film/GodzillaRaidsAgain''. His belligerence towards Mothra counts as well, since they were allies at this point in the series. Partly justified when the role was originally given to King Kong.
