I was so sad when Bill found the letter at the end. That was the biggest gut punch for me. So many good moments in this episode.
I agree. A lot of really great moments.
I wasn’t ready for that final scene with Bill and young Hiroshi, followed by his finding the letter.
I’m not sure though whether Bill will go to Skull Island and abandon Hiroshi out of despair at the betrayal or because he realizes that both the people, that loved him enough to give up their potential relationship, were lost to Axis Mundi. Perhaps, he couldn’t give up their mission knowing that.
There were a couple of unexpected parallels from episode three of the first season — which also had the word ‘secrets’ in the title.
I’ve just rewatched 1 x 03 with my partner this evening and was surprised to note:
Excellent points. I remembered the conversation between Kentaro and May but I didn't realize that was also episode 3.
Reading a letter like that would totally wreck me emotionally.
It's also really rough because Hiroshi isn't Bill's son. I'm sure he loved Hiroshi, but, that's gotta be a challenge with Keiko and Lee both lost.
Thanks for joining the discussion here.
I was excited to see this community launch. I've been a lifelong Godzilla fan and really enjoyed the first season.
Among the people I know IRL, I'm pretty much the only fan.
I'm definitely more of a lurker, but I'll do my best to participate more.
Really glad you’re enjoying the community whether lurking or engaging in the discussion.
I understand the feeling of not having many to talk to about the Godzilla franchise. I feel like an outlier as a fan of the Showa films. That’s the main reason I asked the admins to consider having a community here.
Our (late adolescent) kids were easy to get into Star Trek, and now each have their own other fandoms that they follow while still liking specific Star Trek shows, but I haven’t been able to get them into the Monsterverse at all.
My parter finally offered to watch season one of M:LOM with me recently and is actually enjoying it. Which of course makes me all the more enthusiastic to get others to give it a try.
