Editing Baby Godzilla (section)

=== Role in the Heisei Series ===
Godzilla Junior's journey is a significant subplot in the Heisei series. His relationship with Godzilla, who acts as a protector and adoptive parent, adds a layer of depth to the series' narrative. Throughout the films, Junior is depicted as less aggressive than his father, often showing a curiosity and playfulness uncommon in other kaiju.

In ''Godzilla vs. Destoroyah'', Junior plays a crucial role. After a battle with Destoroyah, Junior is gravely injured and appears to die. However, after Godzilla's meltdown and subsequent death, the radiation revitalizes Junior, who absorbs the energy and fully matures into the new Godzilla, suggesting the continuation of the Godzilla legacy.
