The Showa universe is one in where monsters exist, but it's humnaities actions that have pushed it over the edge. The Showa Series, has this nice organic role out of different monsters, having similar but distinct origins, that gradually increase in wildness. Hedorah is increased in power due to industrial waste, and the Seatopians are angry that the world above them is getting destroyed. It's important to remember that all the aliens generally are a reaction to humanity destroying the Earth. The latter half of the Showa Series features very fantastical monsters, from Hedorah to Gigan and Megalon, that are all crazy creatures that are from out of this world.

There's then a bunch of mutants, like Ebirah, Kamacuras, and Kumonga, that are byproducts of scientific expirements and/or nuclear waste. Think Godzilla, Rodan, Angurius, Varan, King Kong, and Mothra. It's interesting to see how monsters were 'rolled out' throughout the franchise.Įarly Showa is pretty much solely monsters awakened by humanity's on issues and problems, most of them implied to be ancient species that have been altered.
