Serizawa's death isn't just a character moment, it ties into King of the Monsters larger themes of finding a way to respect and co-exist with the forces of nature. "To me, the whole movie about us trying to understand Godzilla and even potentially form a relationship with him," Dougherty said. "The concept of having a lion and the mouse moment between a human being and Godzilla where a tiny, little theoretically insignificant human being would b the one save Godzilla, it just seemed really appropriate thematically." The location of Serizawa's death also ties in thematically look closely enough at the markings on the walls and you'll see evidence of a primitive society that worked with Godzilla. "In this mythology, man and monster co-existed," Dougherty said. "We figured out how to bridge that gap, and we smartly formed alliances with Godzilla, Mothra, Kong, and maybe a few other more benevolent monsters and they helped ensure our survival." The message, Dougherty explained, was "to say that, if this existed in the past, if there was a civilization that learned how to peacefully coexist with Kaiju/nature, then hopefully, if we smarten up finally, then hopefully we can do the same thing."
