Godzilla Junior

Toho character

Godzilla Junior (ゴジラジュニア, Gojira Junia?), also known as Baby and Little One, is the adoptive son of Godzilla featured in the later movies of the Heisei Series.

Baby Godzilla


Baby Godzilla's first appearance was in the 1993 film Godzilla vs. MechaGodzilla. Baby Godzilla's egg was found on Adona Island with a Rodan's egg. The Rodan egg hatched and looked after the unhatched egg. Godzilla himself looked to have interest in the egg. But Rodan fought Godzilla to protect the egg but failed. However, scientists took the egg during the fight. Godzilla then went to Japan to get the egg while Rodan woke up and turned into Fire Rodan and went to claim what was his. The egg hatched and much to the scientists surprise, it was an infant Godzilla and found out that it has a second brain. This made the scientists know Godzilla must have a second brain as well. So they created a Mechagodzilla to kill Godzilla. But Rodan comes in his fire form to fight Mechagodzilla and fought well but failed. Godzilla fights Mechagodzilla and wins. But the scientists upgraded Mechagodzilla into Super Mechagodzilla and succeeds to destroying Godzilla's second brain. Godzilla seemed to have died but listening to Baby Godzilla's cry Fire Rodan gave up his life essence to Godzilla and disappears. A newly revived Godzilla destroys Mechagodzilla with his sprial ray. Baby Godzilla and his new father swim off to sea to find a new home.

Little Godzilla
In Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla,Baby Godzilla grew into Little Godzilla in his new home Birth Island. SpaceGodzilla trapped him in a crystal prison until his father Godzilla killed Spacegodzilla. Little Godzilla was also seen having the ability to breath radioactive "bubble" breath similar to minya's smoke rings.

Godzilla Junior


Godzilla's melt-down destroyed Birth Island. Little Godzilla is missing and presumed dead. He is finally found, much bigger and half the size of Godzilla and is now called Godzilla Junior. Miki lured him to Destoroyah to have Godzilla so Destoryah could stop Godzilla's melt-down. Godzilla Junior found Destoroyah but is knocked down by the monster and Destoroyah puts it's inner jaws into Junior's chest causing lots of blood to come out and absorbing his blood and injecting micro-oxygen in his chest. Junior found enough strength to knock-out the giant crab. Godzilla arrives and the two greet each other. Destoroyah in it's final form drops Junior in a building and nearly kills him. Godzilla succeeds in destroying Destoroyah and melts down radiation filled to skies of Japan turning it into a ghost city, but the radiation disappears and there rose Junior all grown-up and fully developed into an adult Godzilla and roars, showing that Godzilla's legacy will never end.
