Godzilla vs gipsy danger wrote: Showa is 50 meter compared to 180 meters of slattern. Also, atomic breath started a small fire on a barge. Call that strong? Same goes for GMK. He is cat 2.5. Kiryugoji is cat 4, as kiryu would be a top jaegers. Slattern is measured from head to tails, giving him a length of about 180 meters. He's not actually that tall. The Serizawa Scale is based on mass, not height. Slattern only weighs about 6,700 tons, while the Showa Godzilla alone weighs 20,000 tons. So, going strictly by the rules of the Serizawa Scale, every version of Godzilla would be miles ahead of a Category V. The Serizawa scale is based on water displacement and threat level. And water displacement is determined in part by mass. Slattern was a Cat V and he only weighed a minute fraction of what Godzilla weighs. Godzilla can cause a freaking tsunami just by swimming ashore, which is more water displacement than any of the other Kaiju can cause.

And the only reason I was comparing Zilla to Slattern is because they are both longer than they are tall, their tails make up a majority of their length, and they both stand horizontally.
