He destroys cities, feasts on nuclear power, is a kind of tourism ambassador for Japan's capital Tokyo, has a star on Hollywood Boulevard and is an Oscar winner: the radioactive giant lizard Godzilla celebrated his 70th birthday this year. Krone+ on the transformation of the scary lizard into an environmentalist, its best films - and its golden future.

Godzilla, the scary lizard, has been with the author his whole life - he has only been with her for half of it. Admittedly, it had lost its terror in the meantime - from a merciless monster and destroyer of entire cities, Godzilla became a friend of mankind in the course of its history, averting even worse in the fight against other monsters, called Kaijus. Godzilla films went from horror to family movie, only to become more frightening again later on. On its 70th birthday, the star of 38 films - 33 Japanese and five US films - is more versatile than ever and a global phenomenon. Travel with us to his origins.
