The Garoga Spider (ガロガスパイダー,   Garoga Supaidā) is a kaiju created by Toho that first appeared in the ninth episode of Zone Fighter, Search for the Secret of the Red Spider!.

Name

The Garoga Spider's Japanese name, Garoga Supaidā (ガロガスパイダー), is simply a combination of Garoga (ガロガ), the name of the race who deployed it, and supaidā (スパイダー), the Japanese word for spider. The creature is also sometimes referred to as the Red Spider (赤いクモ or レッドスパイダー), including the name of its debut episode, Search for the Secret of the Red Spider! Additionally, the book Toho Special Effects All Monster Encyclopedia erroneously refers to the Garoga Spider as Garopa Spider (ガロパスパイダー), albeit only once.[1]

Design

The Garoga Spider is a giant crimson spider.

History

Zone Fighter

The Garoga Spider was deployed by the Garogas to mutate animals into Terror-Beasts. It managed to find a Gorilla and bit it. The Garoga Spider then began drinking the blood of the gorilla, transforming it into Garoga Gorilla. Garoga Spider then flew away in a hurry and ended up landing on a pair of railroad tracks, before being killed by an oncoming train.

Abilities

  • Garoga Spider has venom that when injected into an animal, goes into its blood stream causing mutation and accelerated growth.
  • Garoga Spider can fly at a moderate speed.
