History[]
Showa era[]
Rodan[]
After Rodan flew out of his nest at Mount Aso and destroyed Saikai Bridge, the monster flew over Fukuoka, with the sonic waves created in its wake tearing apart the buildings below. Rodan landed in Fukuoka and flapped its wings, causing the entire city to be pulled apart by the supersonic winds. Fires spread, and the J.S.D.F. attempted in vain to fight the creature off. However, the men and machines that attacked Rodan were simply blown away by the powerful gusts. Just when it seemed things couldn't get worse, the J.S.D.F. reported that another Rodan had been spotted heading towards the city, explaining the multiple spread-out sightings of Rodan earlier. The other Rodan landed in the city and the two monsters completely devastated it. With the city in ruins and the defense forces in shambles, the two Rodans flew back to their nest at Mt. Aso.
Dogora[]
Due to Fukuoka's presence as a major port, large amounts of carbon-rich materials such as coal and diamonds were often present in the city. Dogora, a recently-discovered species of alien, consumes carbon as its primary food source, and thus appeared from the sky during a huge thunderstorm to feed on whatever carbon materials it could find. Sucking up massive amounts of coal, Dogora found resistance from the J.S.D.F., but humanity's weapons seemed only to irritate it. Dogora grabbed, lifted and then hurled a bridge at the J.S.D.F. before leaving the city in turmoil.
Heisei era[]
Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah[]
Fukuoka is one of the locations that King Ghidorah goes to after being unleashed by the Futurians. He attacks the city with his Gravity Beams, and then flies past Fukuoka Tower's top floor, shattering the windows.
Godzilla vs. SpaceGodzilla[]
SpaceGodzilla lands in Fukuoka after imprisoning Little Godzilla on Birth Island, and immediately sets about transforming the city into his new crystal palace. He places a source of energy into Fukuoka Tower, and waits for Godzilla and M.O.G.U.E.R.A. to arrive. The Kaiju and the Mecha battle, but Godzilla and M.O.G.U.E.R.A. are held back from doing any real damage because Fukuoka Tower's energy kept reviving SpaceGodzilla. Deciding to destroy the tower, they then begin to gain the upper hand, and ultimately Godzilla is victorious after destroying SpaceGodzilla with his Red Spiral Ray, although M.O.G.U.E.R.A. is damaged beyond repair as well.
