This works really well. I think it nails all of the rather pivotal aspects of the series though it focuses more on the 'science is a wily bitch' aspect of the genre over 'human choices cause human problems'. Pathogen manages to be more horrifying if that's possible. A literal zombie apocalypse before merging Hedorah style into something infinitely worse. Though it now has a reason to stalk Tyrantis outside of just being an abomination and crime against nature. Minerva also gets pulled a bit closer into the Narrative and has a bit more to do with the origins of the story which is neat.

Knowing that I'm making lots of hits with this does me good. This drives me to add onto the contest a bit with a few more entries, and hopefully make a few more good swings that could be good... but TT seems pretty eager with his concepts earlier too. And I admit, those were fun like all hell.
This contest is still a good chance to pull ones one twists. I'm curious to see what you'll pull out of the rabbit hat whenever you post yours, too.

I probably won't submit one. With my other projects dancing around I find myself with actually little to no motivation. Whenever I sit down and think about it, I either think really far to the very old concepts of SAOM or nothing at all. My ideas also tend to get dark pretty quickly and I don't see SAOM as a dark kaijuverse. I'd be doing it a disservice if I didn't try to bring out the inner message of what TT was trying to get across. Your take is what SAOM would look like under more of a Heisei era Godzilla lens. It has that 'brutality with reason' to it that is action intensive from a consequential series of events. Its a sensibly utilitarian type of kaijuverse. My MO is sort of the opposite being akin to 'reason with brutality'. It would be more unforgiving and cavalier with the impact on human lives. Genericton in your version is under quarantine and is taking damage from three attacks but it's still standing. In mine it would probably be a ruined husk by the end with a vivid detail of lost comfort and destroyed lives. Much like how the original Gojira played up the horrors of an atomic bomb bombardment.
It could still happen but its getting toward month's end and I haven't hit a compatible idea yet.

I was indeed thinking Hesei and some Millennium Godzilla while writing this, so that makes sense. Generiction will most likely be turned into Kaiju HQ.. maybe even a Kaiju Prison of sorts, since most of it is now a wreck.
But anyway, here's hoping.
