Godzilla and Godzilla Raids Again is a compilation of Gojira and Gojira no gyakushū, novella adaptations of Godzilla and Godzilla Raids Again written by Shigeru Kayama in 1955. Translated into English by Jeffrey Angles in 2023, the novellas re-tell the events of the two films while making a number of alterations and incorporating elements from earlier editions of the film scripts and radio drama.In 1954, a series of mysterious ship-sinkings draw Shinkichi Morita, Emiko Yamane, and Professor Kyōhei Yamane to Ōdo Island, where the locals believe the legendary sea-dragon Godzilla is responsible. When Godzilla—revealed to be a prehistoric reptile mutated by hydrogen bomb tests—attacks the island, the trio return to Tokyo to rally the government in mounting countermeasures, though while Shinkichi wants to kill the beast to avenge his family Professor Yamane wants to study it to unlock the secrets to its apparent immortality. Meanwhile, Emiko's fiancé, brooding chemist Doctor Daisuke Serizawa, reveals a dark secret to her that could prove the key to stopping Godzilla once and for all.A year later, the discovery of a second Godzilla and new kaiju Anguirus by fishery pilots Kōji Kobayashi and Shōichi Tsukioka sends Japan into a panic regarding how to stop these devastating creatures before they lay waste to all of Japan. | |

Age Lift | |
| Godzilla and Godzilla Raids Again / int_121b3725 | comment |
Age Lift: Shinkichi Morita was a child in the film version of Godzilla, but in the novella is around the same age as Emiko Yamane—in his late teens to early twenties—and a childhood friend of hers, having met her when they were evacuated during World War II. | |

A Father to His Men: The president of the South Seas Steamships company — which the Eikō-maru was owned by — was noted to be a kindhearted man seen as a surrogate father by his employees, and weeps openly upon learning the Bingo-maru — sent to search for survivors — was also sunk. | |

Gone Horribly Wrong: Doctor Serizawa frames the Oxygen Destroyer as this, an incomplete stage of his experiments that would make a perfect superweapon, and refuses to reveal it to the public until he can find a peaceful use for it. | |

Byronic Hero: While reduced to a side-character in the novella, Doctor Serizawa is a brooding chemist with an eyepatch and scars covering one side of his face—injuries from his time in World War II—whose work creates a device that could be used as a superweapon rivalling the H-bomb in destructiveness, a prospect that causes him no shortage of angst. | |

Adaptational Villainy | |
| Godzilla and Godzilla Raids Again / int_20f689e9 | comment |
Adaptational Villainy: In Godzilla, Godzilla is framed in less of a sympathetic light in the novelization. While Professor Yamane states that he was driven from his native habitat by H-bomb tests, he is treated as a horrifying entity able to survive for 2 million years and withstand both the explosion and radiation of an H-bomb largely unfazed, and even before being nuked he would ravage Ōdo Island to devour the livestock and villagers. | |

Skewed Priorities | |
| Godzilla and Godzilla Raids Again / int_3d2c6d30 | comment |
Skewed Priorities: In Godzilla, Professor Kyōhei Yamane is vehemently against Godzilla being killed, arguing that he should be studied so mankind can harness his unnatural longevity. Shinkichi Morita—who lost his mother and brother to Godzilla's attack on Ōdo Island—calls him out on holding this view even as Godzilla razes Tokyo, asking how he would feel if Godzilla had succeeded in eating Emiko on Ōdo Island. Professor Yamane mulls it over, saying that he would be just as devastated as Shinkichi is but that he would still insist that Godzilla be studied out of obligation as a scientist. | |

Curb-Stomp Battle: In Godzilla, Godzilla tears through the defences set up by the Ground Self-Defense Force with ease, crushing or incinerating everything in his path. In Godzilla Raids Again, Professor Yamane bluntly states that with the death of Dr. Serizawa there is nothing anyone can do to stop the second Godzilla should he attack Japan. | |

Ambiguous Gender | |
| Godzilla and Godzilla Raids Again / int_4510b368 | comment |
Ambiguous Gender: Jeffrey Angles' afterword notes that Godzilla is not identified with pronouns in the Japanese scripts, and that he originally translated the novellas using "it" before trying to follow contemporary trends by referring to Godzilla as the gender-neutral "they/them"... but the hardcore Godzilla fans among his students vehemently objected and insisted that Godzilla cannot be anything other than male, so he capitulated to their demands. | |

Artistic License – Paleontology | |
| Godzilla and Godzilla Raids Again / int_4c4bebf4 | comment |
Artistic License – Paleontology: In Godzilla, renowned palaeontologist Professor Kyōhei Yamane states that the Jurassic Period was a mere 2 million years ago, and that during the transition to the Cretaceous Period some marine reptiles left the ocean and adapted to life on land. The Jurassic Period actually lasted from around 201 million years ago to 145 million years ago, with no known fossil evidence of marine reptiles transitioning to life on land in the manner Professor Yamane describesnote Ironically, however, precisely the reverse transition (terrestrial reptiles adapting to life in the sea) is known to have occurred in the Cretaceous with the mosasaurs. In Godzilla Raids Again, Professor Yamane and his zoologist colleague Dr. Tadokoro state that Ankylosaurus — aka Anguirus — was a carnivorous dinosaur that was between 150 and 200 feet (45 and 60 meters) tall, had multiple brains all over its body, and lived concurrently with Godzilla between 150 to 70 million years ago. In actuality, Ankylosaurus were herbivorous dinosaurs that were between 6 to 8 meters long, and lived between 68 and 66 million years ago. As with most animals, it also had just the one brain. | |

Trauma Button | |
| Godzilla and Godzilla Raids Again / int_4e9fe57d | comment |
Trauma Button: In Godzilla Raids Again, Professor Yamane notes that—while naturally a vicious predator—bright lights severely enraged the first Godzilla, likely having reminded him of the bright flash of the H-bomb exploding, and that it might be the same for the second Godzilla—which proves to be the case when flares are used to lure him back out to sea. | |

Author Tract | |
| Godzilla and Godzilla Raids Again / int_4eaa9b84 | comment |
Author Tract: Shigeru Kayama was opposed to Imperial Japan's involvement in the Second World War, and uses Professor Kyōhei Yamane as a mouthpiece to air out his grievances by saying that Japan must use every available opportunity to atone for the war-crimes it committed during World War II. In his afterword, Jeffrey Angles speculates that Shinkichi Morita was made into the Godzilla novella's protagonist to emphasize Shigeru Kayama's anti-war attitudes, embodying the younger post-war generation rather than the generation that had lived through the war as Hideto Ogata and Dr. Serizawa had. | |

Prehistoric Monster | |
| Godzilla and Godzilla Raids Again / int_53aab01d | comment |
Prehistoric Monster: The two Godzillas are members of a species of amphibious theropods with crocodilian hides that lived between two and 150 million years ago, and were ravenous carnivores that grew up to 50 meters tall. Being hit by nuclear weapons testing did little more than piss them off and give them a fiery Breath Weapon. Anguirus is a carnivorous Tough Armored Dinosaur that lived between 150 to 70 million years ago, standing between 45 and 60 meters tall; and had multiple brains scattered throughout its body to maximize its speed and agility. Like Godzilla, exposure to the radiation from nuclear weapon tests gave it a fiery Breath Weapon. | |

Animalistic Abomination | |
| Godzilla and Godzilla Raids Again / int_5b057eae | comment |
Animalistic Abomination: Even prior to being nuked, Godzilla is noted to be a 2 to 150 million-year-old creature somehow able to withstand not only the march of time unfazed but the impossible crushing pressure at the bottom of the ocean and the annihilating heat of a nuclear explosion—with this being the reason why Kyōhei Yamane wants to study him. The inhabitants of Ōdo Island regard him as a terrifying dragon-god that comes out of the ocean to rampage and devour everyone and everything he comes across. | |

Heroic Sacrifice: At the end of Godzilla, Doctor Serizawa stays behind to detonate the Oxygen Destroyer and lure Godzilla into it, cutting his rope and air tube to commit suicide so that no-one can ever use it again. At the end of Godzilla Raids Again, Kōji Kobayashi is killed keeping Godzilla distracted from leaving Kamiko Island, his plane crashing into a mountain and setting off an avalanche that partially buries Godzilla in snow. | |

Adaptation Relationship Overhaul | |
| Godzilla and Godzilla Raids Again / int_72ce3f54 | comment |
Adaptation Relationship Overhaul: In the film version of Godzilla, Shinkichi Morita was a young teenager whose brother was a victim of Godzilla's ship-sinking spree, later being orphaned by Godzilla's attack on Ōdo Island; but who doesn't play a large role. In the novel, he's Emiko Yamane's childhood friend and largely fills Ogata's role from the movie, with Ogata being relegated to a supporting side character. The novelization of Godzilla lacks the love triangle between Emiko, Ogata, and Serizawa — or even between Emiko, Shinkichi, and Serizawa; though Serizawa asks Shinkichi to look after Emiko in his place before his Heroic Sacrifice. | |

| Godzilla and Godzilla Raids Again / int_72e54916 | comment |
Retired Monster: Jeffrey Angles notes that it's subtly implied that Doctor Serizawa was involved in Unit 731 or otherwise associated with the fascist regimes of World War II, as he is a veteran of World War II and German scientists are intimately familiar with the nature of his work. By the time of Godzilla, however, he is a staunch pacifist who is horrified by the idea of the Oxygen Destroyer being used as a superweapon, and icily states that he has no friends among Germany's scientific community. | |

Admiring the Abomination | |
| Godzilla and Godzilla Raids Again / int_77538ed4 | comment |
Admiring the Abomination: Professor Kyōhei Yamane is a heroic example, insisting that Godzilla should be studied rather than slain, and when the Tokyo Godzilla Society—an apparent Apocalypse Cult worshipping Godzilla—starts up Professor Yamane is one of the prime suspects. However, unlike in the film version, he explains that the reason he wants this is so that Japan can atone for the war-crimes it committed during World War II by unlocking the secret to Godzilla's apparent immortality and sharing it with the rest of humanity. The Tokyo Godzilla Society—at least on paper—is an Apocalypse Cult that reveres Godzilla as a Destroyer Deity come to punish Japan for having surrendered at the end of World War II, though the ringleader—and sole member—turns out to be a conman seeking to stir up chaos, and who is unceremoniously killed by the very creature he claimed to worship. | |

Apocalypse Cult: The Tokyo Godzilla Society is framed as one, posting fliers all around Tokyo proclaiming that Godzilla is a god of destruction come to punish Japan for having grown soft and weak in the wake of its defeat in World War II. While Professor Yamane is the chief suspect due to his insistance on not killing Godzilla, it's later discovered the culprit was a con artist who'd been trying to spread panic and terror, and who gets crushed flat by Godzilla for his trouble. | |

| Godzilla and Godzilla Raids Again / int_b98b60fe | comment |
Dissonant Laughter: In Godzilla, Hagiwara—a reporter for New Japan News—is so disdainful towards the people of Ōdo Island's belief that a kaiju caused the disappearance of several ships that he starts laughing in the middle of a sacred kagura dance designed to ward off Godzilla, finding such antiquated superstitions silly. The villagers blame him for making the ritual go awry when an ill omen occurs and Godzilla attacks later in the night. | |

To Serve Man | |
| Godzilla and Godzilla Raids Again / int_bd8b2b0b | comment |
To Serve Man: In Godzilla, Godzilla is noted in legend to come ashore to devour people, snatches up and devours a young girl when he attacks ōdo Island, and tries to eat Emiko before she's pulled to safety by Shinkichi. In Godzilla Raids Again, the second Godzilla tries to eat Tsukioka and Kobayashi, furiously ripping at the crevasse where they hide themselves and almost managing to grab them before being distracted by Anguirus' arrival. | |

There Is Another: At the end of Godzilla, Professor Yamane notes that unless humankind stops experimenting with atomic weaponry another Godzilla could surface... and is proven correct in Godzilla Raids Again. | |

Lightning Bruiser | |
| Godzilla and Godzilla Raids Again / int_db6230b7 | comment |
Lightning Bruiser: Both the Godzillas and Anguirius are described as being remarkably fast for their huge size, are impervious to conventional weaponry, and rip through buildings like tissue paper. | |

Tough Armored Dinosaur | |
| Godzilla and Godzilla Raids Again / int_e2153d9 | comment |
Anguirus is a carnivorous Tough Armored Dinosaur that lived between 150 to 70 million years ago, standing between 45 and 60 meters tall; and had multiple brains scattered throughout its body to maximize its speed and agility. Like Godzilla, exposure to the radiation from nuclear weapon tests gave it a fiery Breath Weapon. | |

Composite Character: The character of Hideto Ogata in the movie version of Godzilla is largely replaced by Shinkichi Morita, who in the film was a child orphaned by Godzilla's rampage across Ōdo Island. | |

Old Shame | |
| Godzilla and Godzilla Raids Again / int_e6c88e42 | comment |
Old Shame: When Hagiwara attempts to coerce Serizawa into discussing the Oxygen Destroyer by revealing he learned about it from speaking to some of Serizawa's "old friends" in Germany, Serizawa icily declares that he has no friends in Germany before telling Hagiwara to Get Out!. Jeffrey Angles notes that this implies that Serizawa had been involved with the Nazis during World War II, possibly even being involved with Project 731, but now deeply regrets his sordid past. | |
