Megalon is arguably less imposing than Gigan and Ghidorah, but is still dangerous nonetheless.

There’s also the fact that the franchise hasn’t really tried to make impressive teams of Godzilla villains.

Godzilla vs. Gigan, released in 1972, involves Godzilla uniting with Anguirus to defend Earth from the evil space monsters Gigan and King Ghidorah. Directed by Jun Fukuda, the film follows manga artist Gengo Kotaka, who uncovers an alien plot to conquer Earth using the extraterrestrial creatures. The film is a part of the Shōwa era of the Godzilla franchise and features special effects by Teruyoshi Nakano.
