Meant to attach this video to an ask response but used the wrong one on accident, so here’s the MUTOs kissing just for you. One of my favourite clips in the entire series. I love you creature and sound designers.
I've wanted to do this for so long when they announced the Monster'verse would continue, and I'm so proud of how it turned out in the end. And I wanted to use this song because it would make a perfect trailer song for a future Monster'verse movie.
This is probably the funniest thing I’ve ever posted. Also turn up your brightness because this movie is dark as FUCK
(video description under cut)
A Clip of the Godzilla and MUTOs fight from the 2014 movie. It is the scene where Godzilla has FMuto pinned on the ground and MMuto appears to drag Godzilla off of her. When MMuti appears, the normal audio has been replaced with an audio clip of Vegeta screaming “THATS MY WIFEEEEEEE”
Well, the kaiju ship I ship most is Mothollante, but everyone’s already given their thoughts on that so yeah. Has a lot of the pros of Mothzilla with few of the cons, as well as the wonderful aesthetic of a genetically-engineered abomination and a goddess of nature. There’s also the obligatory puns about flowers and butterflies, and Mothra-based hurt/comfort and fluff which is one of my favorite kaiju fan plots.
Mothzilla’s… alright when handled in a certain way, but it’s a “the ship is fine but why is it everywhere” type of thing. And with the MonsterVerse especially, their relationship is better if it’s platonic. All in all, I don’t really ship it, unless a particular person’s take leans to the “humanity’s sins and nature’s virtues” aspect of both of them.
Gong’s pretty good. Tired old men being tired together.
Rodorah’s pure arson and anarchy and I value it for that, but no way is that dynamic anything approaching healthy. I ship it for the lolz.
I’ve jokingly shipped Legion from Gamera and Destroyah together before. Two big buff arthropod ladies.
Angzilla has the same benefits as Gong, really, but with more Showa craziness.
I find Kongzillra to be a funny threesome, esp. because GvK would have been over in ten minutes if Mothra was there to slap some sense into Goji, to calm Kong down, and to alert the humans to Mechagoji/Ghidorah.
2MUTO is the kaiju ship I like second most, it gets points for being the only canon kaiju couple I can think of outside of the two OG Rodans, and also because I just love the MUTOs in general. Fr though, those two bugs were so sweet together, and I do think they had as much if not more chemistry than the human leads. Anyone who says that Femuto would have committed mate cannibalism on Hokmuto can face my wrath. MUTOs are clearly designed to fight, hunt, and live in pairs (therefore it makes no sense for her to kill and eat him), and it’s entirely possible they’re like crocodilians (i.e. female raises the kids and protects the nest, male brings her and the wittle babies food. Babies stay with the parents for several years until they can live on their own, and may stay within the parents’ territory for several more years. But now I’m going on one of my MUTO ecology headcanon rambles again…)
That’s all I can think of for now, have fun with these and have a nice day!
ooh this is a long one
- I think the funny thing about the hurt/comfort fluff is I only really like it with the Heisei Mothra. For some reason, maybe because she starts out as a larva, she always seemed a bit less like a goddess to me and more like a really caring person just fighting for what they love. While I read other Mothras as more closed off and unsure in social situations because of their attachment to world peace, Heisei Mothra feels more sociable and peppy, and thus capable of committed relationships
- continuing that, Mothzilla I have never really been a fan of, and I think Goji and Mothra being friends is far more interesting. They care so much and mean so much to each other, but it’s because they value their friendship, and neither of them have really had a relationship like that before. They started off as a business relationship and got closer over time, and I think their friendship is very sweet.
- Kongzilla is (usually) very relaxed old man yaoi and I like that a lot
- If you read my other previous ask about Rodorah, you’ll know how I feel about it. Very wacky very goofy very arson.
- Y’know what, I totally think Legion could get it. She’s pulled tons of arthropod ladies before.
- Again, relaxed old man yaoi, I like that a lot. For them it’s way more like, they’ve been friends for so long and have only gotten closer over time, and everyone’s wondering whether they’re official or not, and maybe they won’t say it out loud cause they don’t want the attention, but they are.
- I had a pretty brief Kongzillra phase and that was pretty fun. Mostly used for laughs and silly shipping dynamics where there’s no bad blood. They’re a power throuple.
- The MUTOs are so cute to me, the part where they meet each other in Chinatown, call to each other, nuzzle, and sync up their vocalizations when they kiss lives in my head rent free. It’s too bad Godzilla hates straight romance, because they were a very adorable and committed couple. (I also would be super into any MUTO ecology posts if you’re offering)
(this clip. this clip right here. the sound design, the cuteness, chefs kiss.)
Just saw this: "The iconic images of Kong battling Godzilla have become some of the most memorable moments in modern history."
"APOCALYPTIC MASS AWAKENING" KING GHIDORAH AND "G-DAY" HOKMUTO AND FEMUTO TO HUMANITY: "Were we a fucking joke to you?!"
This brings to mind a bit from Dragon Ball Z Abridged.
Femuto: "Memorable moments," my ass! We cast off the monster masquerade, Godzilla flooded Honolulu, I trashed through Vegas during my post-lunch walk, Hok and I nearly overpowered Godzilla, AND he finished me off with the Kiss of Death! It's bullshit!
Ghidorah: Aww, look at the poor parasite, lost and forgotten to time.
News Reporter: Even the attack of the Mass Awakening of 2019 pales in comparison to this overwhelming clash of Titans. As if comparing a cataclysm to a rampaging toddler.
Ghidorah: BULLSHIT! I HAD THE TITANS OF EARTH AT MY BECK AND CALL AND NEARLY TURNED THE SURFACE OF THIS PLANET INTO A GLASS MARBLE!
Hokmuto: Aww, look at the poor alien, lost and forgotten to time.
