Godzilla Filius (ゴジラ・フィリウス,   Gojira Firiusu)[1] is an incarnation of Godzilla that appeared in the 2017 Godzilla film, GODZILLA: Planet of the Monsters.

Formed from cells that divided from Godzilla Earth during the 20,000 years he ruled over the Earth, Godzilla Filius grew to a height of 50 meters and was living in the former Tanzawa area when the Aratrum returned to Earth to reclaim it. Mistaking Filius for Godzilla himself, Haruo Sakaki and the Aratrum crew undertook a desperate plan to exploit Filius' only weakness and destroy him. While Haruo's plan was successful in destroying Filius, he and his allies were caught completely off guard when Godzilla Earth emerged to challenge them.

Name

Godzilla Filius' name comes from Godzilla and filius, the Latin word for "son," written in katakana as フィリウス (firiusu).

Design

Godzilla Filius looks identical to how Godzilla Earth appeared when he first emerged in 2030. Physical differences between Filius and Godzilla Earth himself after 20,000 years, beyond the drastic size difference, include Filius' lack of a spiked chin or hunched back.

Origins

Godzilla Filius is a creature spawned by cells that divided from Godzilla Earth, much like the Servum. While the Servum diverged into a new subspecies, Filius is effectively an immature clone of Godzilla Earth himself.

History

Post-Millennium Series

GODZILLA: Planet of the Monsters

When the crew of the Aratrum returned to Earth to retake the planet from Godzilla and discovered that 20,000 years had passed, its crew was attacked by a swarm of Servum. While retreating, they encountered Godzilla Filius, believing him to be Godzilla himself. Haruo Sakaki enacted his plan to defeat Godzilla by disabling his electromagnetic field, and this plan was successful in killing Filius. However, upon analyzing Filius the Aratrum's scientists determined that it was identical to Godzilla from 2030, something highly unlikely given Godzilla's capacity to evolve and the amount of time that had passed. Their fears were confirmed when the fully grown Godzilla Earth emerged from a mountain and attacked.

Abilities

Electromagnetic Pulse

Like Godzilla Earth, Filius can produce an electromagnetic pulse that creates a shield capable of defending him from damage.

Particle Beam

Filius' particle beam

Godzilla Filius can produce a powerful charged particle beam which he can fire from his mouth and strike targets.

Weaknesses

Filius is vulnerable if his electromagnetic shield is disabled, and humanity used this method to kill him.

Trivia

  • Godzilla Filius' origin, in that he was created from Godzilla's cells, is similar to a form of asexual reproduction used by a variety of different species of real-world plants, which are able to create duplicates of themselves through a process called vegetative propagation.
