EDIT: Nvm, read Shimo has been confirmed as a female. My bad
Edited by Xantosforkwould this image be good for Shimo, in case it does not violate any leak content rules? https://twitter.com/IcecreamMonarch/status/1748092356480610702/photo/2

i guess you mean this one, yeah, it's pretty cool, it could work
Edited by VolkovTheTerribleI'm a little bit concerned that Contrasting Sequel Antagonist is being overused under Shimo and Skar King's character folders, particularly with references to King Ghidorah and Rodan who are strictly from two spiritual, and overall movies past (two Godzilla-centric and two Kong-centric MonsterVerse movies past in one, on account of the intermediary movie having been the crossover Godzilla vs. Kong), and also with Shimo getting entries comparing her to both Rodan and Ghidorah from King of the Monsters. At that rate, it feels like every new MonsterVerse movie antagonist going forward is going to have a CSA comparing them to every single antagonist that ever came before them.
Edited by Derv0sB2 Hide / Show RepliesAgreed. The film isn't even out yet and Shimo hasn't even been shown in the trailers at this point.
Aside from the references to Mechagodzilla in Skar King's folder I'd have to agree.
So, this page has recently been the subject of an Edit War where WarzoneBeta2 was repeatedly removing Na Kika's original Kraken nickname from their character folder's header and I was restoring it.
WarzoneBeta2 has argued in the recent edit summary that Na Kika's "Kraken" nickname should be removed because it's a nickname. I argue that it should stay, because it was the sole name Na Kika was known by for some time out-of-universe before their official name was revealed in Godzilla: Dominion — besides, we already have nicknames listed on the headers other character folders that haven't been touched ("Kevin", "Monster Zero", "Adam/Dagon/Raijin"), do those have to go as well now?
Anyone who's interested or has thoughts towards either argument, please respond within the next 14 days to give your thoughts on the matter so that we can resolve it.

Edited by Derv0sB2 Hide / Show RepliesWasn't "Kraken" originally its codename in Godzilla: King of the Monsters before being changed to "Na Kika" in the Godzilla vs. Kong tie-in comic?
^ Pretty much. The King of the Monsters official novelization's exact words are, "That wasn't its official name. It still hadn't been assigned one in the Monarch classification. [...] But someone — he seemed to remember it was Devlin — had called it Kraken, and the name had stuck."
Last call — do any more tropers have any extra opinions on this matter?
To me it seems a bit superfluous. Just let the tropes themselves mention Na Kika used to be called Kraken.
Also we got new information on Amhuluk.., he is a shapeshifter, weak to sonic attacks, and has mind tasers.
Linden HSThere is no Space Godzilla, the “flying Godzilla” in the Artbook is not canon but also is intended to be Fire Godzilla with Mothra wings.
Any adding of Space Godzilla is 100% false.
Linden HSYes, MUTO Prime was female, and was the mother of the two MUTOs from the 2014 Godzilla movie.
Considering Mechagodzilla's toy merchandise has officially been revealed, it's been discussed in interviews, and it's been shown in the trailers, should it get a folder entry here?
Edited by Arawn999Can King Ghidorah have his own article? His character page is getting larger.
How does one quantify the "difference between evil and pure evil" and decide who meets the criteria for one and not the other? Ghidorah was using the Titans to terraform the Earth with the end goal of wiping out all life other than himself - resulting in the deaths of millions, enjoys killing, and was willing to blast a defenceless child with the full extent of his power.
Regarding Ghidorah not being listed as a Complete Monster, there is a rule that works can only be discussed two weeks after their US release, so any discussion on whether or not Godzilla: King of the Monsters characters like Alan Jonah and Ghidorah qualify — which does seem slated to happen — can only start on June 14th, 2019.

Rockclaws are the new name for the Rock Critters, they are a relative of the Mantleclaws from MLOM. There’s a new RPG mobile/steam game with several new MUTO species, and a TTRPG with just as many coming.
Nobody I’ve spoken with says the eel in GVK is called a Gatorsnake, it’s an eel anyway.
Just fixed a few things.
