The Leafwings heard Ghidorah's call, responded to it, then pacified due to the ORCA, and (like the other Titans) followed the ORCA to Boston, hence why they appeared in Boston.
Alright, if anyone goes there to continue it, I'll go there too.
And this is why we don't usually make these debate topics. Now just so that we can continue the debate, I would like for everyone who is participating to continue this on my Topic for Discussions, so that the original topic may continue. Thank you.

We're talking about Flyleaf-Rapt0r's signature, not yours

I agree, I love the original message and how it has almost always persisted throughout the series. HOWEVER, I do believe it is KINDA ok if we see Godzilla as a pro-nuclear metaphor in the Monsterverse. I mean, Godzilla has been through many drastic changes over his 65 years, as have many other long standing franchises. So, I believe there should be an idea change in some series too. Every movie series has many drastic changes, even ideally. Sometimes new ideas behind an old series can make for an interesting movie and debate. I love the old message and definitely agree with it, which is partially why I like Shin Godzilla so much. But, if this theory is true, then the Monsterverse is unique in how it represents the other side of the coin, of how nuclear power can be used for good. And I love that. Just like how Godzilla movies have changed political viewpoints over the years, I feel like this is another one that CAN change too. It would be incredibly interesting to see a Godzilla series with this viewpoint. Actually, technically we might have seen this before in Godzilla: The Series. The central theme of the first few episodes was "Don't kill Godzilla. We have a mutation on our side, and trust me, there will be more." Replace Godzilla with nuclear weapons program, and mutation with nuclear power, then it kind becomes a metaphor for pro-nuclear. And look what kind of legend that series has become! Changing Godzilla into an almost completely different Kaiju with depth, intriguing behaviour, and a very different message. And it actually came out pretty well. So this kind of idea seems to have been attempted, or at least accidentally done, before. I just feel like a Godzilla series should be able to represent different points of view without being criticized too much for it. However, if they changed the central message to something, like, cookies taste good (IDK, I'm sleepy), then the message deserves some hate. Trying, or accidentally, showing a different point of view on nuclear power, then I think it could turn out pretty interesting, even though I prefer the original message.
Sorry if that was a rant and impossible to understand, but as I mentioned before, I'm very sleepy.
TL;DR: I think it'd be interesting to see Godzilla series with different messages, so long as it isn't a hate thing or an obvious one or something. Still prefer the OG message though. Sleepiness.
Wait...what is this about my signature?
Anime Ghidorah is the strongest Ghidorah,its the Netflix Ghidorah.
Oh, I knew that.(jk, I didn't)
That's cool.
MonsterZero
That is his signature,which means its gonna appear forever.
Who? I don't watch anime, well, except for that She-Ra show on Netflix, which is bad@#%
Well you see, the only Mothra Leo form that could HOPE to stand a chance against Earth is Armor mothra. even then, it entirely depends if transcending fate gets through the shield.
Flyleaf-Rapt0r
Can you please stop putting the same gif over and over?
i still don't know what you guys are talking about
The long essay is from my friend not me he wanted to give his opinion but he didn’t have a sci-fi account so I posted it for him.
yeeeaaaah Leo's kinda OP.
Yet, those were more family-friendly movies
Lets get back on track.
Its a tie,because of Anime Ghidorah.
Godzilla Earth dominates all other Toho characters except (maybe) Mothra Leo and Anime Ghidorah.
And that's the point I was trying to get at.
Now to go back on track, even as the space spaghetti version, Godzilla Earth definitely defeats every incarnation of King Ghidorah, no questions asked.
No we haven't.
But what does that have to do with this topic?
can we please get on track here?
I don't see what the difference really is with topics that are open ended and people discuss who would win and topics that the op picks a winner and people discuss if they agree or not.
They both basically occupy the same vs debate niche.
Oh. That's cool. You guys ever seen a venomized Ghost Rider?
We are talking about (You Decide) topics.
The (You Decide) topics are a trend,well at least in my opinion.
The future will be (You Decide) topics if they keep on appearing.And whats the point on making a topic over and over only to ask a question.
Eh,here is the thing:
SCIFIED WILL BE SPAMMED WITH (You Decide) TOPICS!
Ganimes V.8.
Wrong on both cases. The "you decide" thing, at least in my opinion, is really just them asking who we think would win, not them telling us to write a fight. And the "you decide" thing has been around LONG before James came around. Even if it did, is it really that much of a problem, or a problem at all?
A (You Decide) topic is a topic that makes you decide the winner A.K.A the creator does not put effort in their topic nor make a good topic.The (You Decide) topics were originally from James Inkton.But i understand what happened because Mufo is new to Scified.
Regardless of the ghidorah incarnation, Godzilla Earth stops H A R D. (Well, except for the spiky space spagghetti)
I thought this would a cool battle,but instead its another (You Decide) type of topic.

Sorry,I thought we were talking about why Godzilla became Burning Godzilla and why Serizawa used the nuke to revive him, so I thought I'd put the reasons why they used it in KOTM.
Godzilla Earth beats almost every other kaju in any godzilla universe by a pretty large margin.
Godzilla is a metaphor for the atomic fears that Japan had after both atomic bombs. The fear rose again after they learned about the 1954 Castle Bravo nuclear testing on Bikini Atoll in the south pacific, just like how Kong is a metaphor for mother nature , He's big and really cool, but is really dangerous. "We cannot command nature, except by obeying her".
Why are we copying and pasting wikipedia synopses from Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah and Godzilla vs. Destoroyah now?
In 1992, science fiction writer Kenichiro Terasawa is writing a book about Godzilla and learns of a group of Japanese soldiers stationed on Lagos Island during the Gilbert and Marshall Islands campaign. In February 1944, while threatened by American soldiers, the Japanese soldiers were saved by a mysterious dinosaur. He theorizes that the dinosaur was subsequently mutated into Godzilla in 1954 after a hydrogen bomb test on the island. Yasuaki Shindo, a wealthy businessman who commanded the Japanese soldiers on Lagos Island, confirms that the dinosaur did indeed exist.
Meanwhile, a UFO lands on Mount Fuji. When the Japanese army investigates, they are greeted by Wilson, Grenchiko, Emmy Kano and the android M-11. The visitors, known as the "Futurians", explain that they are humans from the year 2204, where Godzilla has completely destroyed Japan. The Futurians plan to travel back in time to 1944 and remove the dinosaur from Lagos Island before the island is irradiated in 1954, thus preventing the mutation of the creature into Godzilla. As proof of their story, Emmy presents a copy of Terasawa's book, which has not yet been completed in the present.
The Futurians, Terasawa, Miki Saegusa, and Professor Mazaki, board a time shuttle and travel back to 1944 to Lagos Island. There, as American forces land and engage the Japanese forces commanded by Shindo, the dinosaur attacks and kills the American soldiers. The American navy then bombs the dinosaur from the sea and gravely wounds it. After Shindo and his men leave the island, M-11 teleports the dinosaur from Lagos Island to the Bering Strait. Before returning to 1992, the Futurians secretly leave three small creatures called Dorats on Lagos Island, which are exposed to radiation from the hydrogen bomb test in 1954 and merge to become King Ghidorah, which then appears in present-day Japan. After returning to 1992, the Futurians use King Ghidorah to subjugate Japan and issue an ultimatum, but Japan refuses to surrender.
Feeling sympathy for the Japanese people, Emmy reveals to Terasawa the truth behind the Futurians' mission: in the future, Japan is an economic superpower that has surpassed the United States, Russia, and China. The Futurians traveled back in time in order to change history and prevent Japan's future economic dominance by creating King Ghidorah and using it to destroy present day Japan. At the same time, they also planned to erase Godzilla from history so it would not pose a threat to their plans. After M-11 brings Emmy back to the UFO, she reprograms the android so it will help her.
Terasawa discovers that a Russian nuclear submarine sank in the Bering Strait in the 1970s and released enough radiation to mutate the dinosaur into Godzilla. Shindo plans to use his nuclear submarine to rejuvenate Godzilla. En route to the Bering Strait, Shindo's submarine is destroyed by Godzilla, who absorbs its radiation and becomes larger and more powerful. Godzilla arrives in Japan and is met by King Ghidorah. They fight at equal strength, each immune to the other's attacks. With M-11 and Terasawa's aid, Emmy sabotages the UFO's control over King Ghidorah, causing the three-headed monster to lose focus during the battle. Godzilla eventually ends the battle by blasting off Ghidorah's middle head. Before sending King Ghidorah crashing into the ocean, Godzilla destroys the UFO, killing Wilson and Grenchiko before turning its attention on Tokyo, destroying the city and killing Shindo.
Emmy travels to the future with M-11 and returns to the present day with Mecha-King Ghidorah, a cybernetic version of King Ghidorah. The cybernetic Ghidorah blasts Godzilla with energy beams, which proves useless. Godzilla then counters by relentlessly blasting Ghidorah with its atomic breath before Ghidorah launches clamps to restrain Godzilla. Ghidorah carries Godzilla out of Japan, but Godzilla breaks from its restraints and causes Ghidorah to send both crashing into the ocean. Emmy then returns to the future but not before informing Terasawa that she is his descendant.
At the bottom of the ocean, Godzilla awakens and roars over Ghidorah's remains before swimming away.

Miki Saegusa of the United Nations Godzilla Countermeasures Center (UNGCC) travels to Birth Island to check on Godzilla and his adopted child Godzilla Junior, but finds the entire island destroyed. Godzilla appears in Hong Kong, covered in glowing lava-like rashes, and goes on a rampage. The JSDF hires college student Kenkichi Yamane, the grandson of Dr. Kyohei Yamane, to work at the center in an attempt to unravel the mystery of Godzilla's condition. Yamane suspects that Godzilla's heart, which acts as a nuclear reactor, is undergoing a nuclear meltdown as a result of Godzilla absorbing the energy released from a uranium deposit on Birth Island that had been triggered by a volcanic eruption. Yamane theorizes that when Godzilla's temperature reaches 1,200 °C, he will explode with a force approximately "1,000 times greater than all nuclear weapons put together, a burst of power unseen since time began," which will be hot enough to ignite Earth's atmosphere and reduce the planet's surface to ash.
The JSDF deploys a flying combat vehicle outfitted with anti-nuclear cold weapons, the Super-X III, in an effort to reverse Godzilla's self-destruction. Meanwhile, scientists discover that Dr. Serizawa's Oxygen Destroyer, which was used against the original Godzilla in 1954, has awoken and mutated a colony of Precambrian organisms lying dormant in Tokyo Bay. The creatures combine into several man-sized crab-like creatures and begin wreaking havoc. After several deadly skirmishes with the JSDF, the creatures, dubbed "Destoroyah", evolve beyond the military's containment abilities.
Due to his encounter with the Super-X III, Godzilla will not explode, but will instead suffer a bodily meltdown which could potentially destroy the planet. Miki is instructed to telepathically lure Godzilla Junior to Tokyo, hoping that Godzilla will follow and be killed by Destoroyah. Junior arrives and fights Destoroyah, who is seemingly defeated after being blown into an electrical plant. Godzilla arrives at Haneda Airport, where he witnesses a now fully mature Destoroyah kill Junior.
Godzilla tries to revive Godzilla Junior, but fails, accelerating the meltdown through his grief. Destoroyah reappears, and Godzilla seriously injures the monster in the ensuing battle. Destoroyah tries to retreat, but the JSDF shoots it down with a number of freeze weapons designed to work against Godzilla, and it dies upon touching the ground super-heated by Godzilla.
Godzilla begins to die from the meltdown, but the JSDF is able to minimize the damage with the freeze weapons. While successful in preventing Earth's destruction, the JSDF is unable to prevent the massive nuclear fallout from rendering Tokyo uninhabitable. Suddenly, the radiation levels plummet and a familiar roar is heard and the JSDF sees that Godzilla Junior, having absorbed the energy from the original Godzilla's death, has not only regenerated but grown into the new Godzilla.
