Explaining Shimo: The Villainous Kaiju in Godzilla X Kong
In Playmates action figure sets, Shimo is described as a “legendary ice Titan with unstoppable, world-ending powers.” Indeed, the latest trailer for “Godzilla x Kong” shows Kong fighting against an unseen force unleashing what looks like an ice beam.
We don’t know what Shimo is meant to be, or why it is awakening and threatening to destroy everything in “Godzilla x Kong.” The trailer voice-over explains that the Titans protect nature, so perhaps we’ll get another “humans are a threat to nature, so they must die” motivation for the villain. Given that Shimo is not based on any Toho character, but brand new, its motivation and background remain to be seen. What is clear, however, is that we’ll get a team match, with both Godzilla and Kong facing evil mirrored versions of themselves Shimo is evil Godzilla, and the angry scarred ape is clearly evil Kong.
We’ll have to wait until “Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire” comes out on March 29, 2024, to find out more.
