"Fly! Toward the Future" (飛 (と)べ！未来 (みらい)へ向 (む)かっての巻 (まき),   Tobe Mirai e Mukatte no Maki) is the Season 1 finale of Godziban, the twenty-first overall episode, and the twelfth episode of its Go! Go! Godzilla-kun segment. It was released to YouTube on December 31, 2019.

Plot

Minilla feeds Radon a Meganulon-shaped plant. Little catches a leaf as it floats by then, then throws it to Minilla in an elegant arc. Standing on top of a cliff, Minilla throws the leaf into the distance. Radon then tries to fly, but can only stay aloft for a few seconds before plummeting. Minilla carries him to the top to try again, but with the same result. Before he can try for a third time, a trio of Dorats swoops down to menace the duo. Minilla prevents them from telekinetically lifting Radon, then shields him from their lightning. When Minilla collapses, Radon's fury prompts him to take to the skies, ramming the Dorats and knocking them to the ground. They respond by combining into the gargantuan King Ghidorah, who rains down Gravity Beams. After Radon is hit, Godzilla-kun steps in front of him. They retreat as he challenges Ghidorah alone. The three-headed monster repels him twice, but he preserves. As he starts glowing orange, an army of monsters arrive to help him: Minilla, Radon, Little, Anguirus, Baragon, Gorosaurus, Manda, Kumonga, and Varan. Encouraged, Godzilla-kun leads a charge.
