Mount Mihara

Mount Mihara

Mount Mihara features prominently in the finale of the 1984 kaiju film The Return of Godzilla, where it serves as Godzilla's prison after he falls into the volcano during an eruption. Five years later, in the sequel Godzilla vs. Biollante, bombs placed on Mt. Mihara go off and release Godzilla from the volcano.
