| Anguirus, a mutated ankylosaurus that is rumored to have risen out of a heavily polluted lake, first appeared in 1955 on the shores of Iwato Island, battling Godzilla. The two kaiju eventually tumbled off a cliff and into the ocean, chasing each other all the way to Osaka, where Anguirus was defeated and apparently killed by Godzilla. However, the mutated ankylosaurus either revived or another of his kind later returned as an ally of Godzilla and incarcerated on Ogasawara Island. All was peaceful on the island for a while, but soon the Kilaaks came along and took control of the Earth monsters, setting them loose on all the world’s major cities. Anguirus joined Godzilla in attacking the JSDF while under the Kilaak's control, but later joined the rest of the kaiju after the Kilaak control was terminated, in defeating King Ghidorah and saving the planet. Four years later, Anguirus joined Godzilla in saving the Earth from the alien cockroaches from Nebula Space Hunter M and their monsters, Gigan and King Ghidorah. After that battle, Anguirus returned to Ogasawara Island and until MechaGodzilla arrived on Earth in disguise as Godzilla. Knowing this Godzilla was a fake, Anguirus confronted MechaGodzilla and lost, but succeeded in alerting the real Godzilla to MechaGodzilla's threat, and the monster team of Godzilla/King Seesar took out MechaGodzilla. After Anguirus retreated from his battle with MechaGodzilla, he tunneled his way back to Ogasawara Island, where he has remained ever since. | |
