my passion project turns 1 month old tomorrow
sooo heres some more not nessacairly organized notes for the ghidorahs voice universe!!
- (pre gvk) mira used to leave sticky notes with sweet msgs in rens lab since their hours were different, he pretended to find it annoying but kept them everytime 😭
- its not a fic of mine if there arent lgbtq characters soo.. ghidorah as a whole is aroace, he’s too evil to feel love and would only be with someone if he had something to gain from it, ren/x is demiromantic (meaning he rarely feels romantic attraction, and when he does, its because the relationship started as a friendship), maia is omnisexual with a female lean, rodan and gigan are gay, ill go on to edit this laterr
- ghidorah recognizes they hit a jackpot with ren, its not everyday someone with bordering genius intellect hellbent on revenge on your ancient rival who you also despite willingly dawns a helmet establishing a connection with your brains. ghidorah felt a lot of glee when their unwilling puppet turned out to be probably the most capable person of building them a new body in addition to hating the same lizard they do, meaning they could capitalize on his hatred and bring him closer to them out of desperation.
- in all actuality, ren/x didn’t escape the courtroom in chapter 8, he was hauled off to a jail under monarchs supervision without any problems, fleeing the courtroom, going to bernie for help, and being cornered by a demonic manifestation of himself in 2024 was all a hallucination induced by ghidorah. the demonic manifestation saying ‘we’ve been waiting for you for such a long time’ represents how ghidorah was trapped with ren in the three year coma, waiting for him to claw his way out. 2024 ren as a whole represents the last time ren serizawa was alone in his own head, the neurolink helmet showcasing how he welcomed ghidorah with open arms, intentionally or not, ghidorah is inside him now.
- since i took inspiration from princess burn from wings of fire when expanding upon ni’s personality, he has an odd fasinication with all things dead and instincts on keeping sans several severed heads, which creeps the hell out of san, but ni considers it the only leverage against san since san makes it his mission to piss ni off and get him off task.
- when creating sans personality, one of the points i made was to NOT downplay the fact he willingly attempted to destroy the world. i feel when writers baby san, it takes away from the fact ghidorah represents satan in a lot of ways and this is godzillas greatest rival we’re talking about, im not gonna tell others how to write san since its fiction and at the end of the day its not a huge deal, but sans main inspiration is agatha harkness— he thrives on deception, putting on a charismatic front that ichi and ni lack to make himself seem almost likeable, but it pisses him off royally when others dub him the nice head as it makes him feel inferior to ichi and ni.
- ichi is well aware ni wants to usurp him and often eggs ni on just to see if he’d ever grow the balls to try, on the topic of ichi, he is the mastermind behind ghidorahs schemes and personally gave san the task to run mechagodzilla as a means to ‘redeem himself’ since ichi wanted someone to blame for their loss (his ego cant COMPREHEND the idea it was his own fault, however he also learned from his mistakes and knows to take out humanity before facing godzilla) but at the end of the day, ichi knew mechagodzilla would fail and it was more of an intimidation display than anything else, sort of to let godzilla know ‘hey, you didnt kill us and you wont, the devil doesnt die’
- i’ve seen a lot of people headcanon ren had a rebellious phase in his youth and i wanna say that does NOT apply to my take on ren, yall, piloting mechagodzilla and becoming anti-titan IS his rebellion against ishiro 😭 schools in japan are strict and dont even allow students to get piercings to put that into perspective, my take on ren spent his school years coloring in the lines and being rather reserved, isolating himself and channeling his time into expanding his engineering skills to impress ishiro, the most rebellious thing he ever did was take out his frustrations from being bullied FOR BEING ishiros son at school into becoming an internet troll, which in the late 2000s was just for chronically online teenagers. while on the topic of rens high school years, i imagine he ran his schools robotics team like the navy 💀
- in the gvk artbook, we see ren wearing a lot of black was intentional and meant to convey the mystery of his character
with that being said, i carried gvks fashion storytelling into ghidorahs voice, i imagine as ghidorah continued to corrupt ren and strip him of any options or ways out, his attire progressively gains more gold accents such as gold jewerly, black w/ gold, and by the time he declared himself X, i imagine his attire looked a lot like the original controller X in final wars, but instead of the blue and black we see, its gold and black.
- the idea of the public turning its back on ren before court trials even began sort of parallels the fandoms opinion on him without even reading the novel 💀 they literally HATE him because they cant stand the idea that ishiro was a shit dad and js shitty to ren overall, imagine in addition to ur dad dying for a random monster, he adopted some random british girl long before that and you hear people going ‘theres no serizawa without graham haha!’ yeah there’s rlly no wonder he became a villain LMAO
- in some ways, ishiro is the overaching antagonist of ghidorahs voice since this is ren/X’s story i’m telling, its mostly told through his perspective so his worldviews determine who the protagonists and antagonists are.
- anywayyy with that being said here are the playlists i made for some of the characters and their dynamics
Hi! Do you have any incorrect quotes or clips that remind you of Ghidorah's voice(s)??
LMAOOO yes i do
chapter 20: in the HEAV
nathan: alright listen up, once we find the ghidorah skull we gotta torch the place and get out!
jia *coughs and signs*: dude, ren, can you not smoke in the HEAV?
controller x!ren *signs and says verbally*: you cant tell me what to do, who elected you the mayor of meeee?
nathan: put it out, ren, its annoying everybody!
controller x!ren: god, you guys are so lame! and if you want my help you better all stop calling me ren
raymond: …thats your name, isnt it?
controller x!ren: thats the name my stupid parents gave me! i like to be called by my xilien name, X.
ilene, maia, bernie, raymond, and nathan in unison: oh god
29 chapters are out so farrrr!

do you have any hcs for the three Ghidorah heads?
i know you only asked ab the ghidorah heads but i’ve been dying for a ghidorahs voice hc dump so im taking this as ‘do you have any headcanons for ghidorahs voice?’ which i do!
- since ghidorahs roar is more of a high-pitched screech or cackle, i’ve always imagined his voice was high pitched and bordered on feminine with a demonic edge, so i’d say he sounds like ‘HIM’ from powerpuff girls, obviously ichi ni and san have slightly different voices but HIM is the closest i could find.
- ghidorah saw all 33 years of rens life play out while in the coma as if it were a movie, meaning they saw lots of unpleasant things they’d rather not see (interpret this how you will)
- ichi actually isn’t the best at combat, obviously hes ghidorah and can fight, but he’s much more gifted in psychological torment and usually says something to get under his enemies skin AND THEN going for the kill after stunning them.
- additionally, ichi pays attention very heavily to body language, he’s learned lots of sign of human nervousness and human body language in general from the three years he spent in a comatose rens mind, going through his memories.
- ni has always wanted to usurp ichi, he just knows ichi is way smarter than him and is uncertain on whether san would be on board. ~~possible au where ni and san successfully erase ichi’s consciousness and instead have ren/x upload his consciousness to mecha king ghidorahs middle head.. making ren the cady haron to ichis regina george LMAO~~
- that being said, i’ve always liked the idea of ni being the henchman whos objectively more evil than their superior, ni is the best fighter out of the three and though he believes they would’ve killed godzilla in round one under their leadership, ni lacks the critical thinking to plan attacks and is a very ‘claws on’ kinda guy so he wouldn’t want to waste time planning.
- san is big on theatrics and dramatics so while in rens body, he often drags his trenchcoat as if it were a cape.
- san is more mockingly curious than genuinely curious abt human life, like the tags of ghidorahs voice states, he is __just__ as much of a villain as his brothers, the three of them are simply different villain archtypes who hate eachother and wouldn’t work together if they weren’t attached to the same body.
- ghidorastan64 was one of the chris chan trolls, i got this idea because i watch chris chan documentaries while writing 💀
- hate isnt a strong enough word to describe how ren/X feels about vivienne graham and godzilla— for the same reason, might i add! he feels they stole ishiros time and attention from him.
- ren/X views ghidorah as a sensei figure of sorts, he believed ghidorah saved his life and would’ve died from electrocution in 2024 if it weren’t for ghidorahs interference and since ghidorah has unintentionally shown more and pride interest in his accomplishments than ishiro has, ren/X may even go as far as to viewing ghidorah as a father figure, though he still deems ishiro irreplaceable, ghidorah is a close second.
- that being said, the father/son affections are completely onesided and all three heads of ghidorah view ren/x as a desperate puppet, a means to an end— they capitalize on his hatred for godzilla and overall mean spirited nature to mold him into the perfect lapdog.
hiiiii
first I wanted to know where u got all ur ideas from ! or comparisons of characters from other media that you have
what's your favorite chapter so far?
whats your second favourite kaiju in the storyline?
will godzilla fight?
do you plan on giving Ren more flashbacks to his mother?
will Ren die?
i love all these questions so lets begin !!
as stated before, i got the idea to write a possessed ren story when i noticed the sheer lack of others exploring this concept. for early chapters, i took inspiration from horror movies such as smile 2 and the lazarus effect, as the story progresses, i also used elements from biblical horror such as the antichrist.
i have a bunch of comparisons so lets get itt! i didnt have to develop a lot of the characters but mira is inspired by my two favorite adaptions of mary-jane watson, her introduction in the 60s before being destroyed by bad writing and her mcu counterpart, as well as being an obvious nod to emiko yamane from the original ‘54 film. san is based off comedic villains such as agatha harkness and the joker, ni takes strongly after princess burn from wings of fire and i’ve been pretty into squid game lately so nam-gyu/player 124 as well, naturally, since ni takes after princess burn, ichi takes after princess blister and dr doom, but i’d argue ichi is worse than doom as ichi literally wants to burn the world, doom has been told by the panther god the world will be a better place ruled by him.
my favorite chapter is tied between chapter 8 and chapter 16, i love the scene in chapter 8 where ren is forced to confront a demonic hallucination of his past self but i also love when he finally realizes he has to take a different approach and abandons not only his identity but his humanity and dawns the title of X.
my second favorite kaiju is tied between gigan, spacegodzilla, and bio!maddie. its difficult to choose when i’ve had a lot of fun writing them but i like them more than the pre established mv titans since theres more i can do wo asking myself ‘would blank *really* do this?’
yes! godzilla has already fought kiryu and is getting ready to confront ghidorah in the next chapter.
since mrs. serizawa isnt all that important to his motivations, probably not, we just saw her in chapter 27 and controller x!ren could care less abt anything from his human life.
ren is already dead, silly! theres only X now
heard on ao3 you plan on doing another Ghidorah’s voice what if with Madison inheriting Ghidorah’s curse which I’m really excited about since Ghidorah’s voice is an unexpected masterpiece of Godzilla media
I could definitely see Ghidorah and Madison’s shared psyche being more like Dr. Jekyll, & Mr. Hyde so when Ghidorah takes over he decides to have fun with Madison’s body, taking it on a rampage similar to let’s say in Hulk 2003 during with Bruce his first transformation or electro’s awakening in amazing Spider-Man 2
There could be some really awesome imagery with lightning bursting out of Madison with ghidorah taking over
first off, thank uuu so much for complimenting ghidorahs voice im so glad u like it :)
second off, maddie being possessed by ghidorah rather than ren would be interesting but now that i think of it i once im done w ghidorahs voice i prolly wont be on the fanfic scene since in addition to ghidorahs voice i own a discord rp server that i need to keep alive and since im writing anywhere between 3k and 7k words per chapter i find myself too burnt out to reply on disc which is smth i def wanna fix. back to the topic on hand, i’d encourage others to take inspo on ghidorahs voice and write their own take, of course, maddie is a more trusted individual than ren so i think others would believe her and she’d also be more willing to accept help (ren wasnt willing to accept bernies help when he couldve been saved), ren has a lot more hate in his heart than maddie does for ghidorah to feed off of, and ren already hated godzilla for his lifelong issues w/ his father, however, i dont see ghidorah having much use for maddie since as smart as she is, ren has access to technology and is obviously brilliant as we saw in gvk, that ultimately resulted in mecha king ghidorah but i dont think maddie would be capable of building mkg, and with ren going on to become controller X, i dont think maddie would stoop that low.
at the end of the day, i do encourage others to explore this idea since i have a lot on my plate writing wise 💀💀
since i based san off agatha i imagine everytime hes in rens body he drastically drags his trenchcoat LMAO
ngl im kinda stumped on where to take ghidorahs voice yeah i was getting ready to introduce mkg but i dont wanna rush it yk ?? jelp me out here pls
hi guys !! im new to tumblr and recently made an account following the tiktok bani got started on a fanfic and im not sure where else to put it out there !
"Let's kill the horse."
Godzilla-kun and Miku-chan are besties lmao
Godzilla: Final Wars, but Godzilla is voiced by Keith David, and Crispin Freeman voices Gigan
In making this, I used Spawn’s voice files from Mortal Kombat 11 and Sundowner’s gameplay voice clips from Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance for dubbing the kaiju.
I didn’t post the second best part of this scene because Toho’s copyright bots would probably get me.
For those who don’t get the reference, the Stan Lee Jaeger from the Bad Days Godzilla episode.

Fun Fact: Godzilla vs. Kong wasn’t the first time we saw Godzilla crawling on all-fours. It was originally planned to happen in the 1994 unmade TriStar Godzilla movie.
Godzilla facing Kong: Just another Tuesday.
Godzilla facing Mechagodzilla:
Something that I think barely anyone had noticed yet: You can faintly hear Godzilla's roar from the Heisei era when he was ambushed by Kong during their fight in Hong Kong. Hell, I didn't even notice at first until I started rewatching this clip! It is more clearly heard if you replay the scene without music.
Credit to Toho Society for providing the musicless scene.
Godzilla: I went through an entire character arc during quarantine. I became more evil if you’re curious.
Kong: We're still in quarantine, don't worry, there's time for a redemption arc still!
Godzilla: I’m going to get worse on purpose.
If you look closely, you can see that Kong is about the shove the bottom handle of his axe down into the Big G’s throat. Old habits live on.
Better punch him quick, Kong!

Before any of y’all ask, DIO’s isolated lines were from JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure: Diamond Records, where they have clear versions of the voice lines. I couldn’t do anything about Polnareff’s lines though since those lines are absent.
