Trivia

  • This novel mentions that Battra awoke in order to intercept the asteroid Gorath before it could strike the Earth. This is a reference to both Godzilla vs. Mothra, where Battra's purpose was to prevent a meteor from striking and destroying the planet, and the film Gorath, which featured a runaway celestial body named Gorath on a collision course with the Earth.
  • The coalition of people who want humanity to co-exist with Mothra is named the Cosmos, which was the name given to Mothra's twin priestesses in the Heisei series.
  • It is mentioned that only the combined forces of Mothra and Battra could truly defeat Godzilla, which is why Mothra could only make him retreat by herself. This is a nod to the film Godzilla vs. Mothra, where Mothra and Battra were able to defeat Godzilla by working together.
