Even if there's no commentary or claim that say he did absorb it, was there a simmilar info that says the opposite of that? No, and the reason behind not mentioning that fact is probably to surprise the viewer, and later remind them of how did it happen in his previous movies that ultimate beam attack or foreign energy based attacks backfired against the enemies of Godzilla for using it against him, there's more than enough to proof that happened in the video, it happened before, and Godzilla's size change which also was not mentioned along with his enormous arm-amputating bite force, indicates that happened, because absorbing excess energy is the only proof-based explanation from that and the only strain of energy that was apparently there to absorb was Gamera's plasma beam, and we know Godzilla could absorb Plasma now, along with other energy sources like the who-knows-what Gravity beam.

About whether he bleed or not, why would it be Aura? Dramatic reasons? To make viewers guess what's coming?

And why didn't it animated fluidly or fire-like? We don't expect a God of War 3-like animations here, these people didn't even animate Gamera shift to his flying saucer mode on-screen, I wouldn't expect them to do as much as you said, that kind of animation regardless if it matters little to the event or not, takes a lot more of time.

Nor you need to be a genius to see the size difference of Godzilla in the end, you point out something I might overlook like its a very odd mistake yet your observation of Godzilla's size is rather lacking for me, but please convince me about this one. And can you screen shot and mark the scars for us? Since I can't watch in a decent graphic quality with my internet. Thank you Did YOU look at the video? Because at around 16:46 or so, you see the spurt from Godzilla's shoulder. So, not aura, but blood. The red glow from his dorsal plates after was the aura of him charging up the Spiral Ray. As for the size? Gamera, when he retracts into his shell, becomes a lot smaller in comparison to the enormous Godzilla. As well, Godzilla was standing straighter when he rose behind Gamera, thus making him look bigger, because he wasn't slouching like before.

You can't claim a crucial element was overlooked in the battle itself when there was no indication it was even a factor to begin. I like that you're digging around for more, but this is DEATH BATTLE. If it wasn't mentioned and/or shown in any of the stats or commentary, it wasn't a factor.
