The Heisei series (VSシリーズ^?, Bāsasu shirīzu, lit. Versus series) is a term used to identify the years between 1980 and 1998 (Gamera 3: Awakening of Irys and Gamera: The Brave are also included in it, though they actually came out in 1999 and 2006, respectively). The Godzilla Heisei era lasted from 1984 and ended in 1995. The Gamera Heisei era was from 1995 through 2005. The Godzilla Heisei era was also nicknamed the "Vs. Series". The Gamera trilogy took part in this time period. The Heisei era of Godzilla films follow a different continuity from the Showa films, ignoring every movie except the original 1954 Gojira.

Trivia

• Gamera: The Brave is not counted as part of the Millennium series, which only applies to the Godzilla series. Instead, Gamera: The Brave is counted as a Heisei film despite not being connected to the Gamera trilogy.
• No Godzilla monster introduced in the Heisei series, with the exception of Zilla, reappeared in the Millennium era, not counting stock footage.
• Godzilla monsters from this period were generally very large; much larger than monsters from the Showa era.
• This is the second era to have a series in a complete continuity. The first being the Showa era, while the Millennium era only had separated continuity throughout most films.
• In this era, almost all the monsters Godzilla faces can fly, the sole exception being Biollante.
• In the Heisei Gamera trilogy, all of Gamera's opponents can fly. The only monster in the entire Gamera Heisei era that is unable to fly is Zedus.
