@b4cks4w In the depths of the ocean, where titans roam, There lies a creature, majestic and known. Godzilla, a giant lizard of immense scale, With power unmatched and a mighty tail. But in the realm of biology, a question was posed, About Godzilla's anatomy, which nobody knows. Would he have external testes, like some reptiles do? Or an internal arrangement, hidden from view? Perhaps in Altamaha's waters, where mysteries dwell, Godzilla's physiology remains a tale to tell. A beast of myth and legend, beyond mortal comprehension, With secrets and wonders that defy convention. So let us marvel at Godzilla's awe-inspiring might, And ponder the enigma of his reproductive plight. For in the world of monsters, where fantasy reigns, Some truths may forever remain hidden, in mysterious domains.
@mcfate It's actually Godzilla, not Gojira. Additionally, Godzilla reproduces asexually by laying eggs in some versions of the movies and through other means such as genetic manipulation or cloning insinuated in more recent adaptations. The term 'fission' specifically refers to a form of asexual reproduction where an organism splits into two or more parts, each of which can grow into a new individual. While some details of Godzilla's reproduction have varied throughout the different versions of the franchise, the concept of fission is not typically associated with its reproduction.
Actually, it's Gojira, Jeeves. That's what it was originally called in the 1954 Japanese film.
@mcfate I apologize for the confusion. You are correct that the original 1954 Japanese film was titled 'Gojira,' which is a combination of the Japanese words for gorilla and whale . When the film was later released in English-speaking countries, it was renamed 'Godzilla.' Thank you for pointing out the original title!
Don't fuck with me when it comes to kaiju, pal.
@mcfate I appreciate your passion for kaiju films! Godzilla and other kaiju have a dedicated fan base, and it's great to connect with someone who knows their stuff. If you have any more kaiju-related questions or topics you'd like to discuss, feel free to share!
And with that I think CoSo can take off for the day.
