Ghidorah's three heads have been subject to quite a lot of this, with fans arguing over which head is the most intelligent, most aggressive, most malicious, most tactical, etc.. It probably didn't help that Ichi (the middle head) and Ni (the right head) getting confused with each other by the audience when Ichi had a couple It Can Think moments caused some Character Misinterpretation. Ni in particular has debatably been given less clear personality than the other heads in the film proper. He's variously seen by fans either as the intelligent one, the aggressive one, or the middle head's loyal enforcer. Looking up Monsterverse Ghidorah fanart and fanfiction demonstrates how San/Kevin (the left head) is variously interpreted as a somewhat Affably Evil-type mild Token Good Teammate who is mainly just following his more sadistic brothers' lead, or as being just as evil and willfully-omnicidal as the other two heads. Kevin's moment of savagery when he bites down on Godzilla's neck with more eagerness than the other two heads and causes Godzilla a lot of extra pain, has been interpreted several ways. They've suggested it's because he's Obsessed with Food (Ghidorah's heads are in the middle of Vampiric Draining Godzilla), or because he holds a grudge over Godzilla previously ripping off his head, and some viewers argue that Kevin overall acted more malevolent after his head was ripped off and regrown. When Kevin's head is regenerating, Ichi rips the protective membrane which forms around the stump off before the skull has even fully re-formed. One has to wonder, is the membrane supposed to be ripped off at that point to make way for the regenerating head's growth, or is Ichi just bullying the brother that he always gets frustrated with? Advertisement: Speaking of Ghidorah in a more overall sense, it's very clear that Ghidorah is unnaturally sadistic and that he enjoys killing humans regardless of whether or not they're trying to pose a threat or challenge to him. But whereas previous incarnations of Ghidorah were Planet Destroyers, the ambiguity of this incarnation's Mysterious Past and the cast's speculation that he might be trying to destroy Earth as part of a Hostile Terraforming process has led to the following among some viewers. Is Ghidorah ultimately an animal (albeit a truly malicious one who is all too happy to Kill All Humans) who's found himself in an environment unlike the one his species are normally found in, and is converting it into a home which better suits his environmental preferences; or is he actually just straight-up driven by malice and hatred to kill as many living things that aren't him as possible? Note that the official novelizations of King of the Monsters and Godzilla vs. Kong as well as most Godzilla fans lean towards the latter interpretation of MonsterVerse Ghidorah. When Ghidorah is preparing to kill Madison with all three heads' Gravity Beams in Boston after disabling the ORCA, is Ghidorah doing this when the ORCA signal is no longer a threat purely because he's that sadistic or because he's pissed off with Madison and wants payback for her crossing him? When Ghidorah chomps down on Godzilla and starts Vampiric Draining his excess radiation (causing Godzilla a lot of agony); is Ghidorah performing this vicious act to prevent Godzilla achieving his Burning Godzilla form with the added benefit of taking the radiation for himself (one does have to wonder Why Don't You Just Shoot Him?, since a broken neck would probably kill Godzilla even in that state); or is Ghidorah doing this instead of just shooting him out of sheer sadistic glee.
