Something like King Ghidorah, which is the representation of evil and conquest, wound up coming against each other.

And monsters like Godzilla, which wiped out cities in early episodes or early movies, wound up saving humanity more than once.

Including, ironically, against humans creating a new monster because of environmental degradation.

Not nuclear, but pollution.

Famous movie, Godzilla vs. the Smog Monster.

The smog monster.

The smog monster.

That's right.

Well, Godzilla's difference from just a big dinosaur is his atomic breath, right?

And the physics of the atomic breath have been retconned over and over again.

How does he breathe fire, right?

How does he breathe this terror?

That's right, that's right.

And so the idea that this fire comes from that is very important and it's atomic in nature.

But Gamera, that turtle guy that I was referring to earlier.

And Master Oogway from Kung Fu Panda.

Oogway is turtle in Mandarin Chinese.

And Master Oogway is the turtle.

Stupid.

Linguistically different, even though they share the same written forms.
