As Godzilla is going on a rampage in Japan, he comes face-to-face with Mr. Shindo, the man he saved on Lagos Island in WW2 . Remembering the dinosaur he once hailed a hero, Shindo nods his head in acknowledgement, as does Godzilla. After an emotional moment, Godzilla roars and kills Shindo with his Atomic Blast.
Near the end of Godzilla 2000, Mitsuo Katagiri stands face-to-face with the gigantic lizard. Having enough of the human's ignorance, the King of Monsters kills him.
