Operation Jr.
The year was 1992. The Japanese government was becoming increasingly concerned about the ever-present threat that Godzilla posed to the nation, and in response, a dynamic aerial weapon called Garuda was created in order defeat the nuclear menace. The ominous aircraft was soon rendered obsolete however, when it was replaced by Mechagodzilla 2, a towering mechanical beast created through research of the 23rd century technology discovered in Mecha-King Ghidorah's middle head. Though Mechagodzilla 2 was powerful, its flaws were soon evident when it was defeated by Godzilla in their first confrontation two years later. Luckily, through the genius of Kazuma Aoki, a plan to upgrade Mechagodzilla 2 was soon formulated. Garuda could finally be of use, for Kazuma convinced Dr. Asimov to make changes to both machines, and in a short period of time, the proper adjustments were made to form the immensely powerful fusion mech: Super Mechagodzilla.
Meanwhile, G-Force was concocting a plan by which Mechagodzilla 2 would use the G-Crusher weapon to destroy Godzilla's secondary brain, the existence of which was confirmed during research of a recently discovered Baby Godzilla. The young creature was utilized as bait, but the mission hit a snag when the giant pterosaur, Rodan, snatched Baby's container from the transport helicopter. Pecking away at the structure, Rodan longed to reunite with the creature whom he considered a close kin. In response to this unexpected turn of events, Mechagodzilla 2 was immediately dispatched, and Kazuma Aoki piloted Garuda closely behind...
As Garuda arrived, it became necessary to lead Rodan away from the transport container. After a short skirmish however, Garuda was hurled into a nearby building by Rodan's brute strength. As Kazuma rushed to repair his fallen vessel, Mechagodzilla 2's plasma grenade sent Rodan soaring into a nearby building. As soon as Rodan fell unconscious, another horror soon appeared, for Godzilla had finally arrived, determined to unite with the young Godzillasaurus. Godzilla and Mechagodzilla 2 clashed, and the robotic reptile soon found itself crashing helplessly into the ground. Mechagodzilla 2 was in dire straits; Garuda needed to buy some time.
Kazuma finally made the proper repairs, and its lasers blazed! The ferocious firepower distracted Godzilla as Mechagodzilla 2 used its thrusters to ram into its saurian foe. Godzilla was still a force to be reckoned with, and fusion was finally deemed necessary. Garuda docked onto Mechagodzilla 2's shoulders to make Super Mechagodzilla .
