Godzilla is like a father to me. For so many years, when life gets me down, I could always count on the big G to be there for me. He taught me how to stand tall no matter who or what you were, and how to stick to your guns. Godzilla always beat his enemies in the end, or at least saw to their defeat.
The fact that he was cool had plenty to do with my love for him. Godzilla didn't differentiate between woman or man, rich or poor, cool or geek. Everybody fell before the might of the King of the Monsters.
I fell in love with it.
Not only that, Godzilla taught me to stick up for myself. I was bullied in school, and, like X-Men, Godzilla was a way to escape.
I suppose it's like Godzilla's Revenge, in a way. I would imagine myself to be on Monster Island, where the monsters treated me as one of their own. I was friends with Minya, and together we would fight and defeat bullies on the island, Like Gabara and Megalon. Sometimes, Mecha Godzilla even appeared and fought with the other monsters, and Minya and I (I gave myself all of Godzilla's powers, unsurprisingly) even fended off King Ghidorah once.
Those were the days, but reality set in far too quickly. But I took lessons of life away from those fantasies, and even now, I can still hear the waves on the beach as Minya and I played in the water under the watchful eyes of Anguirus; And sometimes, if I listen closely, I can still hear Godzilla roar.
