That Shin Godzilla fight with all the weapons was absolutely awesome, thanks for reminding me of it! A neat Evangelion reference too. Would be cool if Pacific Rim had a similar scene.

Unfortunately that's not too helpful, damn. Six days of conventional bombardment is a LOT of firepower though, that has to be thousands of weapons 155mm and up, maybe tens of thousands if forces are rallied quickly in time. Granted that wouldn't bother Godzilla one bit aside from making him mad.

In hindsight do we ever get told what payload of nukes (if any?) killed Trespasser? Because 1MT seems to be quite overkill for anything short of a Cat 5.

Nukes certainly have kinetic energy though, or at least their released energy converts into kinetic force in one way or another, otherwise a nuke wouldn't flatten buildings it'd just melt them into slag. Although 'kinetic force of a nuclear bomb' means little because nukes range from 100 megaton...

The issue with that, is that's only around 30 tons of TNT, which for a kaiju-scale organism is a firecracker. Like his fists alone weigh MORE than 30 tons.

That's not too absurd, the dude is a walking nuclear reactor and can survive stuff like the pressure of the deep ocean. If sharks survived, he would with trivial ease, most Pacific Rim kaiju would for that matter. At least until they run out of energy, as they don't seem to be designed to last...

Is there any absurd out of place stuff in those?

I just reckon it's exceptionally silly to use outliers as the norm, Pacific Rim is a film franchise, its not my fault later writers of the franchise are incompetent at sci-fi.

Or the oil tanker is just an especially small one? Are we literally just ignoring the visuals of the film now? We know it didn't cause any external damage, or at least sufficiently small external damage that it caused no bleeding. The bloodied spots on Mutavore were already there before the...

Explain why the 'piercing' missiles fail to pierce Mutavore then? For that matter if they are designed to pierce, why are they highly explosive outside the target, where they seemingly cause no damage? What design are these missiles, APHE, HEAT, HESH, some sort of subcaliber payload system, what?

You're using a cartoon which has massive outliers and assuming it to be the norm. Do I have to post Godzilla flying using his atomic breath? Its functionally as applicable here as the cartoon. Jaegers have big fuckoff missiles which don't cause bleeding yet can kill a kaiju, why they didn't mass...

If plasma weapons capable of killing Kaijus cause giant bursts of blood, a missile of comparable destructive ability should do the same. The difference between a 20mm shell and a anti-kaiju missile the size of a semi-truck are different beasts. However you could launch a hundred of those...

Its a 800mm+ missile exploding on impact, why does it not make blood explode like the plasma weapons do? Getting my point? Because it explodes it must be APHE (unlikely, and would not explode on impact) or HEAT, which is the most likely weapon here if it is designed for piercing. Except HEAT...

Screenshot the blood bursting from the impacts please.

You can literally see the missiles impact and not a drop of blood falls out of him lmao. Other weapons in the film cause massive wounds and cause the blood to spray around. Novelization is wrong then.

The missiles didn't hit him in those places, Striker's blades/punches caused it. You can see when the missiles hit they just cause massive trauma instead of piercing.

Mutavore didn't have any pierced skin when he died, the missiles didn't penetrate his armor but killed him anyways.

Given that all human weapons are little more than a nuisance to Godzilla, and human-scale weapons (big missiles) kill category 4 kaiju, Godzilla might legitimately 1 hit KO with a good tail slap.

Godzilla has his big tail and, ya know, he shoots radiation beams out of his face.

Tresspasser is a big boy (i don't know why the kaiju got SMALLER after him) but Godzilla is bigger, a fair bit bigger once he got bigger in later films.
