* InvadingRefugees: As part of the darker nature of this film compared to its preceding entry, the Black Hole aliens are given a reason for wanting to conquer Earth - that black hole their planet orbits is inexorably pulling the planet into itself, so they need somewhere to move to.

* MakeSureHesDead: This time, Godzilla buries his robotic doppelganger so deep, it would be impossible to recover and rebuild Mechagodzilla a second time. ''And'' to make extra sure it doesn't happen again, he annihilates the aliens as they try to escape Earth.



* SequelEscalation: the previous film had Godzilla facing Mechagodzilla with the help of King Caesar. This movie has Godzilla taking on an even more powerful version of Mechagodzilla ''and'' Titanosaurus at the same time, without any allies to help him.

** Also Interpol agent Kusakari, who disappears in the US cut because the scene of him getting executed by the aliens was deleted. The deaths of Mugal's right hand man Tsuda and Dr. Mafune were also removed from this cut, leading to them suddenly vanishing from the story too.

* ScottyTime: As the Japanese scramble to repair the wrecked sonic device they intended to use against Titanosaurus, the lead engineer admits he's not sure long it will take but states he'll need at least two days. As the higher-ups know by this point the villains could begin their attack at any time, he's told he only has one day, with emphasis that he'll work the ''whole'' day and bring in a team if he has to. Luckily, he was able to complete it by the time the kaiju brawl is well underway.

* BondVillainStupidity: Especially egregious as the bad guys have zero problems [[JustShootHim shooting]] Interpol [[RedShirt Red Shirts]] on the spot - but as soon as they grab Ichinose, he's taken back to their headquarters in some easily-cut ropes.
