- Adam Bindewald: “Gematron, huh? The ship leaders turn to the gods, as usual. Maybe even that new anti-Godzilla tactic was a leak from the higher-ups?”
- Marco Ghione: “Man, are we going to fight it again? It's a monster that withstood an attack of 150 nuclear warheads at once. That's 40 megatons of nucleoplasm total!”

History
Post-Millennium Series
GODZILLA: Planet of the Monsters
Shortly after the anonymous publishing of captain Haruo Sakaki's anti-Godzilla strategy, Marco Ghione, a corporal and combat engineering troop aboard the Aratrum, begins discussing the plan to return to Earth with Adam Bindewald. Adam expresses his skepticism regarding the plan, to which Marco reassures him that the subspace warp-jump required to reach Earth is indeed possible, according to a calculation done by the Aratrum's navigational system Gematron. Adam then asks Marco what he thinks of the aforementioned Godzilla strategy and whether or not it could be a leak from the higher-ups, which Marco responds to by expressing his worries about attempting to fight Godzilla, noting how the monster had previously survived a detonation of 150 nuclear warheads at once. Noticing Metphies walking by, the men refrain from continuing their conversation.
Later, after it is announced by Unberto Mori that the ship will be initiating a warp-jump to return to Earth, Marco quivers on a bench next to Yuko Tani and two maintenance soldiers. As the soldiers exclaim in anticipation to finally see the Earth, Marco dejectedly questions whether the jump is really safe.
