Oh, damn! Congrats!

First an Oscar and now an Eisner. That's pretty impressive considering how Godzilla was for very long dismissed as those silly monster movies with bad effects.
 
Was Suko surviving a crystal explotion in GxK calculated? I think this might be pretty decent durability feat for him.

Also, i don't think Suko should scale to Kong, at all.
 
今作のゴジラは整骨隆々、 マッシブな体形に加え、前胸部と腰部にはノコギリのようなウロコを備え、3列の背ビレ先端からも鋭いクリスタルが多数突き出ているなど、非常に攻撃的でタフな印象を与える。 デザインした西川伸司氏は、 温泉キャラクターデザイナ一として知られ、「ゴジラVSビオランテ」をはじめとする数々のゴジラ映画やテレビ特において、侵獣やヒーローをデザイン。絵コンテ等も手掛けている。 SSSS.GRIDMAN」シリースの怪獣デザインにも参加した。 DATA FILE 1 ゴジラ GODZILLA 身長:100m/体重:5万5千 1954年に核実験の誕生し、現在もなお人類をしかし続ける巨大生物の王宇宙怪獣の如来に呼応する かのことく、相模から8年ぶりに姿を現した。

Says he's designed by a guy who worked on Godzilla vs Biollante and SSSS Gridmann monsters.

Godzilla here is 100m tall and 55000 tons in weight.

The volga one says its 100m tall, 50000t in weight and 150m in wingspan.
 
Does this place accept twitter links? I got something on godzilla ultima but it's a author statement
It is similar to what I already explained to you about Godzilla in Hell...This also applies for all leading WoG questions for the GodzillaVerse.
Each Verse is a case-by-case basis, but generally WoG for Godzilla in Hell trying to upgrade either God-Mountain, God-Demon, or Godzilla himself has been rejected by the staff members many times before to the point that I lost count. If you try to use that Outversal WoG scan, not only will they immediately reject you, but probably they will scold you, because up to this point the staff members are tired of dealing with massive Godzilla in Hell upgrade attempts based on WoG…

Thanks for the reply and clarification but you specifically stated and only mentioned that for gih. Does this apply to every verse or just to godzilla media? If that's the case that's just hypocrisy,bias and a genetic fallacy. I also see twitter links all the time that people post on this site. Are you being passive aggressive? If so you can lose the attitude. My apologies if you weren't being mean

No, I am not being passive-aggressive. And no, leading WoG statements are not allowed for any verse. Quite recently the Ninjago verse had people get banned for using them (and making them).

He's not being passive-aggressive. And yeah answers to twitter questions are almost never allowed and places where they are are generally outdated verses. I would like to see the statement though

That's quite rude, and I think a Top VS Battles Wiki Contributor like Apex doesn't deserve that kind of comment against him…

I don't see him saying anything passive aggressive. Plus that is a passive aggressive response to something that is otherwise did nothing wrong.

Thanks for replying and clarifying again. It seemed like you were being passive aggressive and rude but I must've misinterpreted your intentions. I don't think what I would've showed would've been a leading question but it's better to be on the safer side.

It seemed like he was but he said he wasn't so it's ok I think. I've seen plenty of twitter links here so I thought it might be allowed. Do you have a social media your willing share? Because after this reception I'm certainly not posting it here.
That's quite rude, and I think a Top VS Battles Wiki Contributor like Apex doesn't deserve that kind of comment against him…
I wasn't rude,I was being direct. That's just showing favoritism. I also apologized in advanced if he wasn't.

I wasn't being passive aggressive,I was being direct and I even apologized in advance if I was wrong. None of you mentioned hypocrisy or that that rule is a genetic fallacy
 
only post it if its an actual author statement. If I see screenshots of a leading question from that one guy on twitter who is the "godzilla expert" I am gonna flip.
It's from KyoeiToshi on Twitter but I'm curious as to whom your referring to unless it's the person I mentioned
 
The rule isn't as much about WoG as it is about specific types of WoG where a person asks an author a question that contains or leads to a specific answer. If I ask a guy "is X omniscient?" then that's a leading question since you already have the answer in the reply and the author, who might just not care to reply to weird ass questions too hard, will say - sure. This is especially evident with Godzilla in Hell authors who basically said yes to any question they got asked and recently the "godzilla expert" on Twitter who people have been asking about the book instead of, you know, actually reading them themselves.
Just to give a counter example to a leading question, if instead of "is X omniscient?" you were to ask "How smart is X?" or "What is the limit to X's intelligence" - that'd be a proper question. Whether it is usable is up to staff and up to debate of whether something contradicts it, but it'd be good.

That's the guy, the "godzilla expert". I've seen some of the things he said about the novel and found contradictions that can be disproven very easily, not to mention the immense amount of people asking him leading questions cause they wanna wank Ultima.

Anyway, I wasn't here to criticize you about "you using WoG" but to advise you not to do that in this Wiki/Forum, just that. As usual, the staff members don't like users making CRTs with that kind of stuff…

That guy is only a "Godzilla expert", not the author of Godzilla Singular Point, though.
 
And just to nip this in the bud, from our perspective he is just a guy who read the book. He is an expert in godzilla lore in general, doesn't mean he is an ultima expert.
To give examples of things he got wrong
He was asked if Ultima is Omnipotent to which he said that he sees everything except his own future, just like other monsters.
This isn't true, he very much could see the future from the opening lines of the novel and could easily see where the mandas and the submarine were going, thus outmaneuvering their evasive maneuvers. He only stopped seeing his future when face to face with Jun and JJ cause, since Pero 2 messed with the singularity and the timeline, they had overlapping futures which caused "fraying" which made the future of specific parts of the universe blurry for Godzilla. See the difference? Technically he didn't like but he also didn't say the truth.

If I remember correctly in the older days he said "it" controls all monsters. His words made it seem like it was a separate being. In the actual novel, "It" is Godzilla, it is controlling the body and is the mind of Godzilla, their names being used interchangeably. Another partial truth - he was right about it controlling other monsters but he didn't treat the creature as godzilla.

Due to this and the leading questions it is best to approach the guy with skeptitism.

Thank you for the indepth and respectful answer! I mean from what I've gathered here pretty much any question relating to powerscaling is invaild because of that,even one's without leading questions. I personally disagree with your and others take on the gih questions because they've refused to answer questions and even clap back at the fans for asking them. Ulises is adamant about what he writes and answers with (he deleted his twitter account though) I've personally asked multiple authors powerscaling questions and one was nice and the other was rude. also isn't the translations for the godzilla ultima novelization on this site?

That guy is only a "Godzilla expert", not the author of Godzilla Singular Point, though.
I thought he was or at least involved in the making of the novelization but I looked it up on Google and I now know who the author is
 
Remember when someone lied and said Shin Godzilla would eventually evolve into a universe in and of itself according to the art book? It eventually got debunked by someone who could actually read Japanese but it was funny.
That was always crazy to me that it took as long as it did to be debunked.

I'm still a bit disappointed we will never see what Shin will evolve into aside some vague drafts.
 
Hey, does the plane that fights alongside Kiryu scale to him or Godzilla in anyway whatsoever? I know it has weapons on it and stuff that's meant for fighting Kaiju.
 
Do any of you guy's watch goji-chronic or kotm? What do you think of their videos? I personally like kotm better.
People already talked about kotm so I'll give my opinion about Goji-Chronic: He's not the best scaler. Most of his scaling is either stolen without credit or very wrong. I remember he once used this calc and didn't even acknowledge how wrong it was to use a 7.5x multiplier

I think his content can be fun at times but yeah. He can also be quite biased sometimes, biggest evidence being his Shrek vs HTTYD video imo.
 
Imo, given the nature of VS debating and all, the best you can do is take everyone's takes as a different point of view and see what you can gather from them. I mean, given this is not like a hard science but a consensus is the next best thing, you can at least take info you may agree or legitimately didn't know.
 
Do any of you guy's watch goji-chronic or kotm? What do you think of their videos? I personally like kotm better.
I talked with Goji-Chronic years ago, and he is a good person. But I haven't seen his powerscaling takes in a long time, so I can't give an opinion in this regard.

About Gkotm, others already talked about him in this thread, so I don't have anything to add to that.
 
I'm personally not a fan of how toxic KotM can be at times.
Understandable
KOTM is a big pile of trash. He is one of the most childish and toxic "fans" in the community. You're gonna be called any derogatory word in the dictionary by this incel.
I understand how you feel that but I personally don't take it to heart and I kind of like it when someone doesn't put up with anything

Interesting,goji-chronic is definitely the nicer person but his powerscaling takes have been abysmal imo
I think his content can be fun at times but yeah. He can also be quite biased sometimes, biggest evidence being his Shrek vs HTTYD video imo.
His worst one was toothless vs shin godzilla imo

I think you should look him up again and decide for your self but goji-chronic is usually wrong imo
