Chibi Godzilla Raids Again
"Chibi Godzilla of Monster Island"

Chibi Mechagodzilla's unconscious body washed up on the shores of Monster Island, where he was soon found by Chibi Godzilla. After waking Chibi Mechagodzilla up with his atomic breath, Chibi Godzilla introduced himself before Chibi Mechagodzilla did the same, revealing that he was a robot built by humans. Chibi Godzilla expressed confusion over what humans were before the two witnessed Chibi Godzilla's father, Godzilla himself, appear in the distance. Chibi Godzilla then confided in Chibi Mechagodzilla that he dreamed of growing up to become a big monster so his father could hug him. Chibi Mechagodzilla offered to help and asked to be Chibi Godzilla's friend, though he was put off by Chibi Godzilla's reluctance to accept his proposal.
"The Three-Headed Scary God, Chibi Ghidorah"
While showing Chibi Mechagodzilla around the island, Chibi Godzilla introduced the robot to his friend, Chibi Ghidorah. Chibi Mechagodzilla then asked Chibi Ghidorah to be his friend, though each of Chibi Ghidorah's heads responded with a different answer; while the middle head was kind, the right head was confrontational and the left head wished to exploit Chibi Mechagodzilla's friendship for money. Chibi Ghidorah listed several possible sights to show Chibi Mechagodzilla before the robot expressed interest in the left head's suggestion of searching for matsutake mushrooms. Chibi Godzilla subsequently discovered three mushrooms in the area, which Chibi Mechagodzilla believed to be enough for Chibi Ghidorah's three heads; however, Chibi Ghidorah's middle head insisted that they were still one mushroom short, wishing for Chibi Mechagodzilla to have one too since they were now friends.
"The Resplendent Maiden, Chibi Mothra"
Chibi Godzilla introduced Chibi Mechagodzilla to Chibi Mothra and the Shobijin, explaining that they shared a telepathic connection. However, Chibi Mechagodzilla expressed doubt that the Shobijin were accurately conveying Chibi Mothra's thoughts and was quickly annoyed by how rude the Shobijin were. Speaking with Chibi Mothra directly, Chibi Mechagodzilla learned that she was learning how to apply makeup, though Chibi Mechagodzilla assured her that she was already cute just as she was, leaving her flustered. Seeing this, the Shobijin then pivoted to hooking Chibi Mothra up on a date with Chibi Mechagodzilla, embarrassing Chibi Mothra to the point of tears and causing her to release her poisonous scales. Nevertheless, Chibi Mothra expressed that it was nice to meet Chibi Mechagodzilla as he was incapacitated by her scales.
"The Ruler of the Skies, Chibi Rodan"
Chibi Godzilla led Chibi Mechagodzilla and Chibi Mothra on a hike up a mountain in the hopes of speaking with his father. The group soon encountered the narcissistic Chibi Rodan, whose vanity quickly wore on Chibi Mechagodzilla. Chibi Mechagodzilla then got into an argument with him over whose wings were better, with Chibi Mechagodzilla insisting that Chibi Mothra’s wings looked nicer, eventually causing Chibi Rodan to plummet to the ground. Chibi Godzilla explained that Chibi Rodan would fall whenever he loses an argument and that he simply wanted to be liked, though Chibi Mechagodzilla believed that Chibi Rodan's narcissism was responsible for making him unpopular.
"Monster Study Session"
Chibi Godzilla taught a monster study session for the monsters of Monster Island. While Chibi Mechagodzilla attempted to offer some legitimate answers, he found that everyone else was offering ridiculous suggestions, with Chibi Mechagodzilla quickly dismissing most of them. However, after Chibi Godzilla began providing nonsensical answers to his questions that were equally as asinine as the previous suggestions, Chibi Mechagodzilla questioned whether or not this was a real class and later concluded that the "class" was not worth taking.
"The Roaring Dragon, Chibi Anguirus"
While Chibi Godzilla was teaching him about hunting, Chibi Mechagodzilla ended up caught in a bear trap that the former had set. Chibi Mechagodzilla suddenly heard the loud frightening roars of an approaching kaiju and was scared out of his wits until seeing that they belonged to small monster. Chibi Godzilla introduced the monster as Chibi Anguirus, explaining that his voice change has left him only able to communicate in roars incomprehensible to the chibi monsters. Chibi Mechagodzilla asked how they could even communicate while Chibi Godzilla explained he mostly just guesstimates, with his flimsy attempts at translation frustrating Chibi Mechagodzilla. Chibi Godzilla then had the idea of having the Shobijin use their telepathy to translate, but their attempts proved to be just as inaccurate as Chibi Godzilla's. After Chibi Anguirus repeatedly denied the supposed translations of the Shobijin and Chibi Godzilla, Chibi Mechagodzilla theorized that Chibi Anguirus had come to free him from the trap, only for Chibi Anguirus to once more reject the suggestion.
"All Chibi Monsters Attack"
Chibi Godzilla, Chibi Ghidorah, and Chibi Anguirus destroyed a model city in Chibi Mechagodzilla's cabin, much to the robot's dismay. Chibi Godzilla pleaded to be allowed to destroy more and attempted to tell the story behind why he could not contain his destructive urges, though Chibi Mechagodzilla quickly realized that this was nothing more than a ploy to continue wrecking the city as he told his tale. Chibi Ghidorah and Chibi Anguirus both apologized for their actions, pacifying the agitated Chibi Mechagodzilla, who forgave them. Chibi Godzilla then got Chibi Mechagodzilla to leave by telling him they would clean up the mess, though this proved to be another ruse as he planned to wreck even more of the city and proceeded to tempt the other monsters with more destruction. Before they could initiate their second assault, however, the enraged Chibi Mechagodzilla caught them and blasted the trio with his eye beams before ordering them to fix what they could.
"The Sage of Grudges, Chibi Hedorah"
In Monster Island's classroom, Chibi Hedorah arrived to teach a lesson for Chibi Godzilla, Chibi Mechagodzilla, and Chibi Rodan. Chibi Hedorah proceeded to reveal that his "lesson" was teaching the others about how pathetic humans were, only to end up listing random and trivial reasons in an attempt to justify his hatred. Chibi Godzilla eventually told Chibi Mechagodzilla that Hedorah exaggerates a deep voice to emphasize his supposed hatred of humans, though it was really just an act. Chibi Mechagodzilla dismissed Chibi Hedorah's teachings to his face before asking if he had even met a human before; while Chibi Godzilla was certain that he had, the sludge monster admitted that he hadn't.
"The Bewitching Rose, Chibi Biollante"
Chibi Godzilla, Chibi Mechagodzilla, and Chibi Mothra visited Chibi Biollante's bar, where Chibi Mechagodzilla was shocked to discover that the bar only served dried snacks and no drinks when Chibi Biollante recommended rice crackers. Chibi Mechagodzilla confided in Chibi Biollante that he was overwhelmed by the chibi monsters' eccentricities, to which she suggested resting his mind to alleviate the stress. Chibi Mothra also spoke to Chibi Biollante about her problems, and while Chibi Biollante's cryptic response of "dipping soup for the mind" confused Chibi Mechagodzilla, Chibi Mothra understood that it was a complex allegory and provided a very specific yet accurate interpretation of the statement, leaving Chibi Mechagodzilla utterly bewildered. Chibi Mothra also mentioned that her skin becomes dry when stressed, to which Chibi Biollante recommended hyaluronic acid without the use of an allegory. Following the strange exchanges, Chibi Mechagodzilla lamented that he didn't understand what was happening anymore, only to be further incensed by Chibi Biollante's recommendation that he needed to hydrate despite the fact that the bar served no drinks.
"Chibi Godzilla's Second Form"
One morning, Chibi Mechagodzilla encountered a beige slug-like monster and was shocked to find that it was Chibi Godzilla himself. Chibi Godzilla explained that he merely slept wrong and sprained his neck, with Chibi Ghidorah and Chibi Mothra mentioning that this has happened before. Nevertheless, Chibi Mechagodzilla did not understand how that could result in his body changing shape and color and maintained that Chibi Godzilla should see a doctor. Chibi Mothra suggested that he try stretching, and while Chibi Mechagodzilla was doubtful such a simple remedy could work, it quickly proved effective as color returned to his face and eventually restored him back to normal. Some time later, Chibi Godzilla bumped his knee, causing him to revert back to his slug-like form, only this time he was purple in color. Chibi Mechagodzilla remained bewildered over how such minor injuries could dramatically alter Chibi Godzilla's entire appearance.
"An All-Chibi Monster Chorus"
Chibi Mechagodzilla joined several others on another trip to Chibi Biollante's bar, where the robot once more expressed his disappointment in the establishment's lack of refreshments until Chibi Biollante revealed that they also offered karaoke, which piqued his interest. Chibi Godzilla attempted to sing to "Godzilla's Theme", though Chibi Mechagodzilla quickly grew annoyed upon discovering that the song had no lyrics, resulting in Chibi Godzilla humming the song instead until Chibi Mechagodzilla turned off the machine. After the Shobijin and Chibi Anguirus took their turns at singing, Chibi Biollante recommended that they all sing a song together, with Chibi Godzilla once again selecting "Godzilla's Theme". While still irritated by the humming, Chibi Mechagodzilla resigned and impassively sung along in a monotonous voice. However, the group ultimately earned a perfect score on the karaoke machine's scoring system.
"The War at Low Tide"
Chibi Godzilla, Chibi Mechagodzilla, Chibi Ghidorah, and Chibi Rodan went to the beach to dig for clams when they encountered Chibi Hedorah, who was cleaning trash that had washed up on Monster Island's shores. Chibi Godzilla asked where the garbage had come from, and Chibi Hedorah explained that humans were to blame, identifying most of the objects as weapons of conflict. However, Chibi Mechagodzilla refuted each of Chibi Hedorah's claims that all of the objects had been used for war, stating that most were simply everyday items. Following a suggestion from Chibi Rodan, the chibi monsters enthusiastically embraced the idea of cleaning the beach, though Chibi Rodan passed out following an insult from Chibi Hedorah. Before they could begin, Chibi Hedorah told the group to clean up their own trash in reference to Chibi Rodan's unconscious body, which resulted in Chibi Mechagodzilla defending the fallen monster.
"A Mighty Monster's Instinct"
While hanging out with the other chibi monsters of Monster Island, Chibi Godzilla sneezed, scorching the top of Chibi Mechagodzilla's head with atomic breath before unexpectedly roaring like his father. While Chibi Godzilla dismissed these oddities as the symptoms of a cold, Chibi Mechagodzilla and the other monsters concluded that Chibi Godzilla was reaching puberty. Excited at the prospect that he was finally becoming more like his father, Chibi Godzilla fired his atomic breath in celebration, once more striking Chibi Mechagodzilla, who yelled at him to stop aiming at him. Some time later, Chibi Ghidorah summoned the other chibi monsters and revealed that he found a letter from Chibi Godzilla, who explained that he was fearful his destructive urges would cause him to hurt his friends and subsequently decided to leave Monster Island, though he hoped to meet his friends again when they were older. Heartbroken, Chibi Mechagodzilla believed he was at fault for yelling at Chibi Godzilla and began to cry, wishing that he hadn't told Chibi Godzilla to stop. Chibi Mothra and Chibi Ghidorah attempted to console the robot until Chibi Godzilla suddenly appeared, explaining that he saw a doctor before he could leave and found that he really did have a cold after all. He also revealed that he overheard Chibi Mechagodzilla's comments and thanked him, assuring him that they would be friends forever. However, he also expressed relief in knowing that he could always aim his destructive urges at the robot, prompting Chibi Mechagodzilla to try to take back what he said.
