, also known as the Smog Monster, is a kaiju who first appeared in Toho's 1971 film ''Godzilla vs. Hedorah''. The monster was named for , the Japanese word for sludge, slime, vomit or chemical ooze. He is the main antagonist of the film. ==Overview== Hedorah is an extraterrestrial kaiju formed from pollution that could feed on pollution. Falling to Earth as a cloud of spores, Hedorah hatched into millions of microscopic tadpole-like organisms which began to feed upon the toxins with which mankind had poisoned its air and water. As they increased in number and power, they began to merge into a giant monster of living sludge capable of reducing the entire planet to an uninhabitable wasteland. Hedorah's transformations and composite physiology are thought to be the inspiration for the Heisei monster Destoroyah. Surprisingly, Hedorah has become one of the most famous Godzilla monsters. At the time of his creation, he was without a doubt, alongside King Ghidorah, Godzilla's most challenging enemy. In the course of their fights, the King of the Monsters was continuously injured and found it very difficult to defeat him. Hedorah, with King Ghidorah, Mechagodzilla, SpaceGodzilla and Destoroyah, are considered to be some of Godzilla's most powerful enemies. Although in Final Wars, Godzilla defeated Hedorah with ease, he is still considered to be a powerful enemy of Godzilla simply because he was at the wrong place at the wrong time. Hedorah in the Showa series was between 0.1 millimeters and 20 meters (65 feet) long in his Water Form, 30 meters (98 feet) tall in his Land Form, 40 meters (131 feet) long in his Flying Form, and 60 meters (196 feet) tall and weighed 48,000 metric tons (52,910 short tons) in his Final Form. Hedorah in his Flying Form could fly up to speeds of Mach 1. Hedorah in Final Wars was 120 meters (393 feet) tall and weighed 70,000 metric tons (77,161 short tons). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hedorah」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
