Godzilla: The Series (1998–2001)
8/10
A fantastic show that rises far above the disasterous film it is based on
30 May 2023
I was really cautious going into this series after the disaster that was the '98 film but this actually turned out to be a damn good show. Godzilla still has that awful Tri-Star design but at least he does get his atomic breath back and acts a lot more aggressive than the film (though he gets his ass beat a little too much sometimes). The main human cast is really good and I thought they had a pretty fun dynamic. The voice acting talent was pretty stacked across the board and I felt they all did great jobs.

The series didn't have the rights to any of the actual Toho monsters so they had to come up with original monsters and I think they did a really good job with most of them. The monster fights were pretty solid though you can tell they were holding back somewhat due to this being a show for kids. The Monster Wars episodes were incredible and are easily the best episodes of the show.
