Godman is then called to protect those threatened by the monster's attack, but, Godman gets heavily beaten down by the monster. Luckily, the hero defeats Tsunojiras using his God-Crush and God-Spark after a long and drawn out fight and much encouragement from Koichi Matsushita.

Roar
In Go! Godman, Tsunojiras' roars are borrowed from the Ultra Kaiju Zambolar, whose roars are in turn made from combined Godzilla and Gamera roars.
In the Godman film, Tsunojiras shared his roar with Varan and the Showa Baragon. In Go! Greenman, Tsunojiras reuses Arstron roars. Concidentally, Arstron is another monster who bears a vague similarity to both Godzilla and Tsunojiras.
