Your DEFINING Godzilla moment

My question for all of you is what Godzilla's over 65-year history is THE defining moment/scene and why? To quickly explain, a defining moment isn't the same as your favorite moment (though they can be the same). It's a moment or scene YOU specifically would show someone who has never seen anything Godzilla-related before and say THIS is Godzilla.
Now I'm specifically talking about what defines Godzilla as a character and movie icon the best, but feel free to share your defining moment on any Godzilla-related topic like about a specific Kaiju/character, Era, time period or even the Kaiju genre as a whole! For me personally, it has to be the Atomic Death scene from Shin Godzilla (which is coincidentally also my favorite scene). Everything from the Music, the Visuals, the imagery, the symbolism and the fact that not only did they perfectly showcase how destructive Godzilla is, but also did it in a way that's it's both tragic and beautiful at the same time! It perfectly summarizes what I love about Godzilla and the genre as a whole.
I hope I've made my question clear enough but with that out of the way, let's discuss!
Long live the king...
