* [[Alternate History]]: The events of 1954 allowed Japan (and the rest of the world) to exploit Godzilla's life-essence (called "G-Energy") as an energy source, leading to significant advances.
* [[Creator Provincialism]]: Like many works in the franchise, the game by and large is set around Japan.
* [[Gaia's Vengeance]]: The female G-Force operator speculates that this may be Godzilla's motivation behind the present attacks.
* [[Japanese Political System]]: The seating Prime Minister varies depending on how difficult each subsequent stage is. ▼
* [[Godzilla Threshold]]: Given that Godzilla himself is involved, everything up to and including artificial Kaiju like Mechagodzilla is eventually thrown against you.
▲* [[Japanese Political System]]: The seating Prime Minister varies depending on how difficult each subsequent stage is.
* [[Karma Meter]]: Depending on your actions, Godzilla (or any of the playable characters) can be played as a "hero," "anti-hero" or an indiscriminately destructive villain. This in turn corresponds to the "[[Wanted Meter|Disaster Level]]," which determines not only how fierce the human opposition would be but also whether said opposition would stay out of your way.
* [[Kaiju Defense Force]]: The nominally [[Multinational Team]] G-Force is largely comprised of JSDF forces. Justified in-verse given how G-Force is a collaboration between the United Nations and Japanese authorities.
* [[Mission Control]]: The female G-Force operator for the humans.
* [[Mythology Gag]]: The game makes several homages and nods to the franchise in general.
* [[Puny Earthlings]]: Conventional military attacks don't really do much against Kaiju. But piss off humanity ''too'' much and said attacks start intensifying in bulk, eventually leading to mecha being deployed.
