They're experiencing every type of apocalypse at once. All of them. Fallout, Fist of the North Star, SMT, Mad Max, if it doesn't overlap with any of the other ones like how parasites and zombies being a redundant doubling up, they've got it.

I feel like kaiju vs aliens might be a stalemate. Kaiju shouldn't be able to touch the little aliens zipping around, but aliens won't be able to take down the giant kaiju either.
Many recent Godzilla anime things retcon him into more than just a big lizard, turning him into an absolute nightmare able to e.g. shoot down spaceships orbiting earth with his lazers, and precision strike anything within his vision. I think he can hit the aliens.

Yeah, that was my dumb idea as well. "Lawless" humans as in they don't respect, and can violate, any law.

I want a stealth RTS of this series so bad. A game where you guide your squishy squad around the map, infiltrate bases, and press buttons marked "VERY BAD IDEA" to summon/provoke highly lethal natural enemies and hope they don't kill all of your forces before you successfully, bravely, heroically, run away.

Not to mention that this is an especially big Godzilla. Canonically he's supposed to be like 350 ft, but this guy looks like he's several times that.

Godzilla size varies by Godzilla. Minus 1 is just 164 feet tall, for example.

Another option would be an asymmetrical multiplayer action game like Dragon Ball: The Breakers where one player gets to be a Natural Enemy and the rest are poor humans desperately trying to survive.

Even so, this one looks like he could be a kilometer tall. According to Wikizilla which is a website that apparently exists, that still makes him by far the biggest Godzilla!

Honestly I feel that way about a majority of the manga I read, even ones way less chaotic than this. Isekai or not. I'd love for this to be a game though, monsters killing each other while you get to hang back and watch the show is a fun time as far as I'm concerned.

Crazy to think that Dante would be a better hero to rely on instead of Saitama.

Kirby still remains MVP of any story that needs action to save the day. He's not solving either of the Kira cases.

It seemed to me that they were not able to comprehend it. Pow the one that charged the Mega Kaiju doubted the thing even brought down their ship.

Yeah this is the funniest part and, assuming the Mega Kaiju doesn't end them, someone else exploiting this misunderstanding might be able to.

Is the kaiju also a volcano or was that something else attacking it? I couldn't tell if it was launching those things itself or they were coming from somewhere else.

Probably. At least one of the closeups showed that it has whole-rear end buildings embedded in it, suggesting it's either a living mountain/volcano, or a creature that had been slumbering just under the surface long enough that the terrain became part of it/embedded in its flesh.

Yeah, this line stuck with me as well. Like, maybe they are holographic projections, or something? At the very least, it could suggest their “real” forms are something even more mind-bending.
