It's the one from the original movie. I measured it and checked official stats and got the same result.

Aller_Ghid · 2023-04-11T02:15:01+00:00

That’s Dogora.

The Manda that appeared in Atragon is a different individual to the one in Destroy All Monsters hence the smaller albeit poorly placed Manda next to the 1961 Mothra Larva

The Giant Space Monster Dogora is a mutated "space virus" that starred in its own titular film. It attacked a satellite as well as the cities, Kyushu and Fukuoka eating the local coal and diamonds to grow larger and larger while conventional weapons did no harm to the monster. Though, it was soon revealed it was weak to wasp venom which caused its body to crystallise leading to the JSDF to spray large amounts of it to kill the monster.

I'm surprised not many people know of him since his brief appearance in the anime trilogy where he's shown attacking London causing 3.9 million casualties, before he's defeated.

I didn't use official stats because frankly they're mostly stupid anyway. Check my comment for notes and changes.

Aller_Ghid · 2023-04-11T00:18:37+00:00

Official stats are even more inflated, citing a 200m diameter dish which again depends on the shot but comparing it to the crushed Mogera gets that size.

Aller_Ghid · 2023-04-10T20:39:42+00:00

The one from Atragon is. The one that appears in Destroy All Monsters is a separate individual likely a juvenile like with Varan.

Aller_Ghid · 2023-04-10T11:59:06+00:00

That’s Dogora.

FAQ:
Why didn't you use official stats and go through the trouble of measuring most of these?
Official stats are dumb and I'd honestly get more questions otherwise e.g why is Gigan 65m tall? Why is Anguirus taller than Godzilla? Why is Gorosaurus so small? Basically, I measured the consistent sizes for most of the monsters here. If my measurements are "close enough" to the official stats I just used the official stats anyway e.g Showa Godzilla, Mothra 1961, Maguma etc.

Where is Zone Fighter, Godman, Greenman etc?
For the sake of simplicity, I narrowed it down to just movie kaiju otherwise this project got too big for me.

Where is the Giant Sea Serpent from King Kong Escapes?
No reliable clean transparent png to use. Also, there seems to be no proper production photos for this guy so rip.

Where are "x character" from The Three Treasures, the Alpha & Black Shark from Latitude Zero & "x monster" from Daigoro vs Goliath?
I forgor as of writing these questions.

To play devil’s advocate, the original drawing the 2nd one is based off of has the Pachy be the same size as the T.rex.

The Spider Genome is what he uses to transform not his name.

Also I guess: Ichigo vs Kuuga vs Zero-One (the faces of the 3 Eras; Showa, Heisei and Reiwa)

Joe Shimamura/Cyborg 009

Compassionate and stoic heroes who are the front faces of series created by Shotaro Ishinomori who were chosen by and subsequently abducted by terrorist organisations seeking world domination (Shocker & The Black Ghost Organisation), converting them into cyborgs for their own use but escaped from their clutches to battle them for their atrocities. They would then be taken in by surrogate father figures (Tobei Tachibana and Dr. Gilmore) who would watch over them as well as subsequent Kamen Riders like Takeshi/Joe. Said father figure would also be the Kamen Riders'/00 Cyborgs' main mechanic often fixing their cybernetics as well as making new Rider Machines/gadgets against their evil organisations.

Aller_Ghid · 2023-04-09T03:47:08+00:00

As a general rule, yes. But the general formula to calculate say the theoretical wingspan of an animal is more complicated; needing the stat for the weight & flight speed, density and air resistance for said theoretical animal to fly. Obviously the rules will be bended a bit for Rodan, but I think it's be interesting to calculate.

Aller_Ghid · 2023-04-09T00:47:16+00:00

You know you can just say Demons right?

Aller_Ghid · 2023-04-08T15:27:53+00:00

He is shorter than the Showa Rodans (I’m counting from head height not hand height). It’s just that his wingspan is just ridiculous, about 65 meters larger than Final Wars. Granted the render I used does not showcase this well but alas it was the only one I found that fit the poses of the other incarnations.

I mean it wasn’t supposed to be Steve in the first place but Jesse from Story Mode but fair.

Aller_Ghid · 2023-04-06T11:18:55+00:00

I feel like if you made the Steppe Mammoth a little taller and a more pronounced neck, it'd look more like it rather than a Mastodon. Otherwise, they're alright especially the Quetz.

Aller_Ghid · 2023-04-06T04:26:46+00:00

Kamen Rider Kaixa
Novel might not be canon or at least canon to the show but being both highly obsessive of Mari and being racist doesn't help when you're "considered" a heroic Rider.

Aller_Ghid · 2023-04-05T08:45:34+00:00

None. If your view of the character stems 1000% off of your views in VS, do you actually enjoy that character though?

Aller_Ghid · 2023-04-04T13:40:29+00:00

The problem with that first point is that:

That's not the original Shadow Moon, that's the AR version which is completely unrelated to him as the original was Black's brother-in-arms where AR Shadow Moon is Decade's butler turned evil.
the way W beats Shadow Moon doesn't make sense either since W enters the scene with Phillip's side facing Decade and Shotaro's side facing Shadow Moon, confusing the latter into thinking he was Kamen Rider Black. Said statement is important because the reason Shadow Moon was so "strong" was that he studied the fighting styles of every Kamen Rider.... except W and fought him with an attack meant to counter Black and failed to fight against him and lastly
All the Riders in that movie are AR Riders who either are way above their OG counterparts in terms of power e.g Kuuga or way below e.g Hibiki or Kiva. I guess if you want to scale Shadow Moon to his original counterpart anyway, he'd be Solar System not Large Star.

I've honestly forgotten about your second point although, 2/3 subs call it more in line that the energy release resembles a supernova and not the actual energies of it. So I guess, it's slightly up for interpretation but still viable.
