ToraGoji (1998)

Trained on 100 images.

The ToraGoji (トラゴジ) is the design used for Godzilla in the 1998 film GODZILLA and its follow-up television series Godzilla: The Series, as well as for the monster Zilla in the 2004 film Godzilla Final Wars.

The ToraGoji's name comes from the Japanese name for TriStar (トライスター Toraisutā), and Goji, which comes from Godzilla's Japanese name, Gojira (ゴジラ). In Japan, a popular nickname for the design is EmeGoji (エメゴジ), derived from the first part of director Roland Emmerich's surname, spelled in Japanese as Emerihhi (エメリッヒ), combined with Goji. Another name is AmeriGoji (アメリゴジ), derived from "America," which was often used to describe him prior to the 2014 film, as he was the only American film incarnation.
