Godzilla Movies: Rodan Films
This watch order follows Rodan, the supersonic pteranodon who ranks among Toho's most iconic kaiju. Beginning with his tragic solo film where two Rodans terrorize Japan, he evolves from city-destroying menace to Godzilla's frequent ally. Rodan's incredible speed and wind-based attacks make him a unique aerial threat in a franchise dominated by ground-based monsters.
While Rodan appears in fewer films than other major kaiju, his presence always signals spectacular aerial combat and city-wide destruction. From his heartbreaking origin to his role in monster team-ups, this order showcases one of the few monsters who can match Godzilla in both power and audience sympathy.
There are 11 other watch orders available - see the links up above.
