![]() ![]() Japanese fans have nicknamed this Godzilla GyuraGoji (ギュラゴジ), which is derived from Singular Point's title, specifically "Singular" (シンギュラ, Shin gyura), and Godzilla's Japanese name, Gojira (ゴジラ). The Singular Point website's description for him instead calls him a super-giant lifeform (超巨大生命体, chō kyodai seimeitai). ![]() Prior to the government designating Aquatilis as "Godzilla," he was referred to simply as a giant organism (巨大生物, kyodai seibutsu). Amphibia is likely derived from the Greek amphibion, or Latin amphibium. Prior to episode 6's airing, the series' official website listed Aquatilis as simply "?." Ultima, aquatilis, and terrestris are all Latin words, meaning "last," "aquatic," and "terrestrial," respectively. The names of Godzilla Ultima, Godzilla Aquatilis, Godzilla Amphibia and Godzilla Terrestris were all first revealed on their Bandai Movie Monster Series figures none have yet been named within the series itself. Because 古史 is typically pronounced koshi rather than goji in modern Japanese, Mei Kamino and Yun Arikawa both misread the name as " Koshira." This spelling differs from that used for Godzilla in the 1954 film and Shin Godzilla, which was written 呉爾羅 but pronounced the same. In Godzilla Singular Point, an ancient depiction of the folklore creature Gojira spells his name in kanji as 古史羅, incorporating the Japanese word for "ancient history": koshi (古史). Godzilla's Japanese name, Gojira (ゴジラ), comes from a combination of the Japanese approximation of "gorilla" (ゴリラ, gorira), and kujira (クジラ), the Japanese word for "whale." Eventually, after being brought down by a bombing run, he evolved into Godzilla Ultima, unleashing his power on those who opposed him in the city. Godzilla Terrestris seemingly killed a large Rodan as he continued onward. After using an explosive blast that devastated the surrounding area, he formed a crystalline cocoon around himself, eventually emerging as Godzilla Terrestris. ![]() Aquatilis came ashore in Tokyo, evolving into Godzilla Amphibia and continuing on through the city. When a school of Manda appeared in the waters off the coast of the Boso Peninsula, Godzilla followed them to Tokyo Bay, evading a Navy blockade in the process. The monster was first discovered by the crew of a submarine who had been stalked by it half a mile under the sea. Regarded in Nigashio legend as the sea monster "Gojira," Godzilla was prophesied to bring the end of the world when the seas were stained red. He assumed his final form, Godzilla Ultima (ゴジラウルティマ, Gojira Urutima), in episode 10. Aquatilis evolves into a transitional stage, Godzilla Amphibia (ゴジラアンフィビア, Gojira Anfibia), in episode 7 and again into the terrestrial Godzilla Terrestris (ゴジラテレストリス, Gojira Teresutorisu) in episode 9. He began life as a fully aquatic creature, Godzilla Aquatilis (ゴジラアクアティリス, Gojira Akuatirisu), who was first teased in episode 3 of the series and later appeared unobscured in episode 6. Godzilla (ゴジラ, Gojira) is a kaiju who appears in the 2021 Toho anime series Godzilla Singular Point. Yun Arikawa: “ Illustration of Koshira?” Satomi Kanahara: “ Apparently, it's ' Gojira.' A local legend about an apocalyptic monster that appears from the sea when it turns red.” ― Yun Arikawa and Satomi Kanahara, on the illustration of Gojira ( Godzilla Singular Point episode 2, " Gamesome")
