* BrokenAesop: The film tries to be anti-nuclear with both Godzilla and King Ghidorah being giant monsters created by nuclear weapons, the people of 1992 being told that Godzilla caused Japan's destruction via nuclear fallout. But then the protagonists decide to recreate Godzilla with a nuclear sub armed with nuclear warheads by Mr. Shindo, a ''Japanese man'', yet the irony is lost on everyone.

** Godzilla in the [[Film/Godzilla1954 original film]] is said to be a hybrid of both land-dwelling and undersea dinosaur. The dinosaur that would become the Heisei Godzilla is more land-dwelling.

* AdaptationalBackstoryChange: King Ghidorah is a genetically engineered creature with a dose of atomic mutation thrown in, rather than a space monster. PlayedWith in Tanaka's original intent and the novelization, however, where the Dorats were created from the DNA of a space borne King Ghidorah's corpse found on Venus, making Ghidorah a clone of a Ghidorah with his Showa origin.

** A little with the backstory with Godzilla's pre-radiation species. In the first film and the ''14th Edition of Definitive Edition Godzilla Introduction'', Dr. Yamane states that Godzilla must have been a dinosaur from the Jurassic era before coming into contact with H-bomb testings, and the Definitive Edition confirms this. When we meet the ''Godzillasaurus'', he doesn't look aquatic, though it's possible he's an adolescent.

** In general, the film's time travel antics create a lot of confusion among fans about what is and isn't still a part of history in the later films. A common theory is that the Futurians actually changed ''nothing'' but in fact created a StableTimeLoop and a Predestination Paradox where every Heisei-era film, as well as the 1954 film, all still happened, only with the Futurians now responsible for the Heisei Godzilla's existence. However, official material reveal that two branched timelines were created by King Ghidorah's creation and Mecha-King Ghidorah being sent back in time. Some official sources state that the events of ''Film/TheReturnOfGodzilla'' and ''Film/GodzillaVsBiollante'' were erased from continuity, but this is contradicted by ''Film/GodzillaVsSpacegodzilla''.
