The film received a <a href="/wiki/Limited_release" class="mw-redirect" title="Limited release">limited release</a> in the United States in 1977 by Cinema Shares, under the title <i><b>Godzilla vs. the Bionic Monster</b></i>. It was then quickly re-released under the title <i><b>Godzilla vs. the Cosmic Monster</b></i> which was also the UK theatrical title.

Meanwhile, Masahiko Shimizu discovers a type of metal not found on Earth while <a href="/wiki/Spelunking" class="mw-redirect" title="Spelunking">spelunking</a> and takes it to Professor Miyajima for examination. An excavation led by Masahiko's brother Keisuke uncovers a chamber filled with ancient artifacts and a mural bearing an ominous prophecy: "When a black mountain appears above the clouds, a huge monster will arise and try to destroy the world; but when the red moon sets and the sun rises in the west, two monsters shall appear to save the people." Keisuke is joined by archaeologist Saeko Kaneshiro, who translates the prophecy and takes a statue bearing the likeness of Okinawa's guardian monster King Caesar to study. Two men stalk them, one claiming to be a reporter while the other attempts to steal the statue, but fails and flees. </p><p>Following the appearance of a black cloud resembling a mountain, <a href="/wiki/Godzilla" title="Godzilla">Godzilla</a> emerges from <a href="/wiki/Mount_Fuji" title="Mount Fuji">Mount Fuji</a> and begins a destructive rampage despite having become tolerant of humans within the past years. Godzilla's ally, <a href="/wiki/Anguirus" title="Anguirus">Anguirus</a>, confronts it, only to be nearly killed and forced to retreat. Keisuke arrives shortly after to check on Masahiko and Miyajima. Godzilla's rampage continues until the real Godzilla emerges to fight it, exposing it as an imposter called <a href="/wiki/Mechagodzilla" title="Mechagodzilla">Mechagodzilla</a>, a massive robot armed with advanced weaponry made of the same strange metal, later revealed to be space titanium. Godzilla is severely wounded, but inflicts some damage on Mechagodzilla before both monsters retreat. Miyajima hypothesizes, based on Mechagodzilla's advanced technology and composition, that the robot is an alien superweapon. </p><p>Keisuke and Saeko take the statue back to the temple, but are confronted by the thief once again. During the fight, the skin on half of the stranger's face melts away, revealing an ape-like visage. The intruder attempts to kill Keisuke, but an unseen gunman kills him before Keisuke and Saeko catch a brief glimpse of the reporter. Concurrently, Godzilla arrives on Monster Island during a thunderstorm and is struck by lightning multiple times, reinvigorating itself. </p><p>Masahiko, Miyajima and his daughter Ikuko explore the cave where the space titanium was first found, but are captured by ape-like aliens from the Third Planet of the Black Hole, who plan to use Mechagodzilla to conquer Earth. Their leader, Kuronuma, forces Miyajima to repair the robot. While Saeko checks into a hotel and guards the statue, Keisuke leaves to meet Masahiko at the caves, only to encounter the reporter, who reveals himself as Nanbara, an <a href="/wiki/Interpol" title="Interpol">Interpol</a> agent who has been tracking the aliens. After Nanbara and Keisuke infiltrate the alien base and free the prisoners, Keisuke and Ikuko leave to pick up Saeko and the statue while Miyajima, Nanbara, and Masahiko stay behind, only to be recaptured by Kuronuma. </p><p>The next morning, a <a href="/wiki/Lunar_eclipse" title="Lunar eclipse">lunar eclipse</a> results in a red moon and a mirage of the sun rising in the west. Seeing this, the team realizes they have to awaken King Caesar. They meet with the priestess and her grandfather and place the statue in the temple, revealing King Caesar's resting place. As Kuronuma dispatches Mechagodzilla, the priestess sings to awaken King Caesar and Godzilla appears shortly afterward. The two monsters join forces to fight Mechagodzilla. When the robot tries to escape, Godzilla uses its stored electricity to create an electromagnetic field to attract Mechagodzilla before tearing off its head, causing it to explode. While the mortified aliens are distracted, Nanbara and the others free themselves, kill their captors, and sabotage the base, fleeing as it explodes. With the enemy defeated, Godzilla heads out to sea and King Caesar returns to its resting place while the humans rejoice. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Cast">Cast</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Godzilla_vs._Mechagodzilla&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Cast"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1184024115">.mw-parser-output .div-col{margin-top:0.3em;column-width:30em}.mw-parser-output .div-col-small{font-size:90%}.mw-parser-output .div-col-rules{column-rule:1px solid #aaa}.mw-parser-output .div-col dl,.mw-parser-output .div-col ol,.mw-parser-output .div-col ul{margin-top:0}.mw-parser-output .div-col li,.mw-parser-output .div-col dd{page-break-inside:avoid;break-inside:avoid-column}</style><div class="div-col" style="column-width: 25em;min-width: min(25em, 100%);"> <ul><li>Masaaki Daimon as Keisuke Shimizu<span style="font-weight: normal"> (<span title="Japanese-language text"><span lang="ja">清水敬介</span></span>, <span title="Hepburn transliteration"><i lang="ja-Latn">Shimizu Keisuke</i></span>)</span></li> <li>Kazuya Aoyama as Masahiko Shimizu<span style="font-weight: normal"> (<span title="Japanese-language text"><span lang="ja">清水正彦</span></span>, <span title="Hepburn transliteration"><i lang="ja-Latn">Shimizu Masahiko</i></span>)</span></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Akihiko_Hirata" title="Akihiko Hirata">Akihiko Hirata</a> as Professor Hideto Miyajima<span style="font-weight: normal"> (<span title="Japanese-language text"><span lang="ja">宮島秀人</span></span>, <span title="Hepburn transliteration"><i lang="ja-Latn">Miyajima Hideto</i></span>)</span></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Hiroshi_Koizumi" title="Hiroshi Koizumi">Hiroshi Koizumi</a> as Professor Wagura<span style="font-weight: normal"> (<span title="Japanese-language text"><span lang="ja">和倉博士</span></span>, <span title="Hepburn transliteration"><i lang="ja-Latn">Wagura-hakase</i></span>)</span></li> <li>Reiko Tajima as Saeko Kanagusuku<span style="font-weight: normal"> (<span title="Japanese-language text"><span lang="ja">金城冴子</span></span>, <span title="Hepburn transliteration"><i lang="ja-Latn">Kanagusuku Saeko</i></span>)</span></li> <li>Hiromi Matsushita as Ikuko Miyajima<span style="font-weight: normal"> (<span title="Japanese-language text"><span lang="ja">宮島郁子</span></span>, <span title="Hepburn transliteration"><i lang="ja-Latn">Miyajima Ikuko</i></span>)</span></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Gor%C5%8D_Mutsumi" title="Gorō Mutsumi">Gorō Mutsumi</a> as Kuronuma, Black Hole Alien Leader</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Shin_Kishida" title="Shin Kishida">Shin Kishida</a> as Nanbara, Interpol Agent</li> <li>Takayasu Torii as Tamura, Interpol Agent</li> <li>Beru-Bera Lin as Princess Nami, Azumi</li> <li>Masao Imafuku as High Priest Azumi</li> <li>Daigo Kusano as Yanagawa, Alien Agent #1</li> <li><a href="/wiki/Kenji_Sahara" title="Kenji Sahara">Kenji Sahara</a> as Ship Captain</li> <li>Isao Zushi as <a href="/wiki/Godzilla" title="Godzilla">Godzilla</a><sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTERyfle1998361_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTERyfle1998361-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></li> <li>Kazunari Mori as <a href="/wiki/Mechagodzilla" title="Mechagodzilla">Mechagodzilla</a><sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTERyfle1998361_3-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTERyfle1998361-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Kin%27ichi_Kusumi" title="Kin'ichi Kusumi">Kin'ichi Kusumi</a> as <a href="/wiki/Anguirus" title="Anguirus">Anguirus</a> and King Caesar<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTERyfle1998361_3-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTERyfle1998361-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup></li></ul></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Production">Production</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Godzilla_vs._Mechagodzilla&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Production"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>As with all previous entries in the <i>Godzilla</i> film series, the <i>kaiju</i> characters featured in <i>Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla</i> were depicted through <a href="/wiki/Suitmation" class="mw-redirect" title="Suitmation">suitmation</a>.
