Synopsis

A mysterious extraterrestrial being resembling Godzilla rapidly approaches Earth. The monster, dubbed SpaceGodzilla, lands to challenge the King of the Monsters.

Plot[edit | edit source] Godzilla's cells brought into space by Biollante in 1990, and Mothra in 1993, are exposed to intense radiation from a black hole, resulting in the birth of an extraterrestrial creature, which quickly makes its way to Earth, destroying a NASA space station along the way. Meanwhile, members of the United Nations Godzilla Countermeasures Center (UNGCC), Koji Shinjo and Kiyoshi Sato, arrive at Baas Island, the home of Godzilla and his son Little Godzilla, in order to try enact Project T, the placement of a telepathic amplifier on Godzilla that can be used to mind control the beast and keep him away from Japan. The Cosmos, Mothra's twin priestesses, telepathically visit Miki Saegusa and warn her of the extraterrestrial's arrival. M.O.G.U.E.R.A (Mobile Operations G-Force Universal Expert Robot: Aero-type), a mecha built by the JSDF to replace Mechagodzilla as a part of Project M, is sent in to intercept the creature, but suffers damage in the process. The creature lands on Baas Island and attacks Little. Godzilla intervenes but finds himself overwhelmed, and is powerless to stop the creature from trapping Little in a crystal prison. The creature, dubbed "SpaceGodzilla" by UNGCC, leaves for Japan, with Godzilla in pursuit. Shortly thereafter, the yakuza, led by McKay, abduct Miki and bring her back to their base in Fukuoka in an attempt to use her psychic abilities to gain control over Godzilla. Miki is rescued by Shinjo, Sato and Akira Yuki, who is initially reluctant due to his hatred toward Godzilla, whom he blames for his best friend Goro Gondo's death in Osaka, before SpaceGodzilla arrives. SpaceGodzilla lands in central Fukuoka and forms a massive fortress of celestial crystals. M.O.G.U.E.R.A, now piloted by Shinjo, Sato and Yuki, arrives to once again battle SpaceGodzilla, but is still no match for it. Godzilla arrives in Kagoshima Bay and battles SpaceGodzilla, but SpaceGodzilla easily gains the upper hand. The JSDF discovers that SpaceGodzilla is using Fukuoka Tower as a power converter, using it to transform the Earth's core into an energy that SpaceGodzilla can absorb, slowly killing the planet. While Godzilla battles SpaceGodzilla, M.O.G.U.E.R.A. splits into two different mechas: the Star Falcon, a flying battleship piloted by Yuki, and the Land M.O.G.U.E.R.A., a tank with a large drill in front of it piloted by Shinjo and Sato. Both mechas damage the crystal fortress while Godzilla pushes over Fukuoka Tower, cutting off SpaceGodzilla's energy supply. M.O.G.U.E.R.A. quickly reforms and blasts off SpaceGodzilla's crystal-like shoulder formations, weakening it. SpaceGodzilla then critically damages M.O.G.U.E.R.A. but is subsequently incinerated and destroyed by Godzilla's supercharged atomic breath. After SpaceGodzilla's destruction, the JSDF claims that if humanity continues to pollute space, another SpaceGodzilla may appear someday. As Godzilla makes his way back to Baas Island, Miki uses her psychic powers to remove the mind control device from Godzilla's neck. Meanwhile at Baas Island, Little is freed from the crystal prison and begins blowing atomic bubbles.
