Germanium II is a second generation hybrid Kaiju, and the 'son' of the original Germanium. Germanium II is the result of a single piece of Germanium adapting its genetic code to the environment it regenerated in after Germanium was murdered in cold blood by Keratos.
Appearance[]
Germanium II looks similar to his predecessor, but has darker skin and black tentacles instead of the greyish blue ones Germanium has. His claws and teeth are light blue, and his eyes are bright yellow. He also has four light blue tusks, two on each side of his head.
History[]

— Germanium II to Keratos |
Germanium II appeared after Keratos had successfully downed WeegeeZilla and eviscerated the heroic scientist's abdomen gem. Witnessing this horrendous act, Germanium II immediately challenged Keratos to a fight, and held up rather well, being able to hold Keratos off by carrying out 'Spiritual Infusion' with the spirit of his predecessor.
Eventually, Keratos had enough of Germanium II's interference, and fired his scalpel beam at the monster. Germanium II attempted to use his tentacles to block the beam, but the absorbed energy made them rupture instead. Fortunately, the fight had been a distraction, allowing WeegeeZilla's abdomen gem to gain the energy it needed, and the fight was about to take a sudden turn Keratos could have never anticipated, as WeegeeZilla used his absorption inheritance to copy Keratos's powers.
After Keratos transformed into his Scalpel Form, Germanium II regenerated his tentacles and attempted to rejoin the fight, but was forced back by the mutant pathogen.

After Scalpel Keratos was critically injured by WeegeeZilla's Keratin Storm, Germanium II regrouped with the scientist, whereupon he discussed the murders of each of the Periodic Genesis Kaiju at the hands of Keratos and Sepsis's other subordinates.
Still, Keratos was not yet dead, and rose up again in a mutilated state. This time, Germanium II and WeegeeZilla stood side by side, and prepared to fight the subordinate together. Germanium II distracted Keratos by antagonising him, giving WeegeeZilla an opening to restrain Keratos with his Energy Tendril Blades. Shortly after that, Keratos exploded and finally died, ending the threat he posed, and leaving Germanium II and WeegeeZilla victorious.

— Germanium II reveals to Myos that he had deceived him. |

Germanium II and WeegeeZilla team up to take on Myos.
During the midst of WeegeeZilla's battle against Myos, Germanium II arrived and saved the scientist from certain death at the hands of the Mutant Pathogen, having found the surviving pieces of Keratos's armour close by. Wearing Scalpel Keratos's helmet and pauldrons, he deceived Myos into believing that he was Keratos, confusing the pathogen for long enough for WeegeeZilla to recover his energy and stand back up. Together, the duo proceeded to face Myos down.
As the battle continued, Myos was struck hard by Germanium II and WeegeeZilla's Magnificent Mighty Strike combination attack. Enraged, he used his Twin Jaw Beam against Germanium II, making it appear as if he had been destroyed; however, Germanium II had survived thanks to his improved regeneration. As Myos prepared to kill WeegeeZilla, Germanium II immediately retaliated, using his Potassium Chloride Ray to blast off a significant portion of the side of Myos's body.
Council of Creators[]
One Year Arc[]
Germanium II first appeared in Episode 38, where he was busy fighting Keratos in Universe 1996's Periodic Genesis continuity. As part of The Creators' plan to rid Universe 1 from Lucifer's control, he was recruited into the growing rebellion.
As part of the plan outlined by Koopa, Germanium II was to team up with Generikko, Godzilla Man and Indominus Ghidorah to fight Magorin. Together (albeit without I-Ghidorah's help), Germanium II, Generikko and Godzilla Man very quickly defeated Magorin, then the four heroes arrived at Lucifer's tower to join the rest of the rebellion, having been teleported there by Godzilla Man.
In the final battle against Lucifer, Germanium II assisted, using his Spiritual Infusion ability to increase the power of his standard Atomic Breath. After Lucifer was defeated, Germanium II and everyone else returned to the bar to celebrate, before the kaiju went off to their respective universes. With his memories of the battle wiped by Terry's visor, Germanium II left the bar through a portal to the Periodic Genesis continuity, where he resumed his fight against Keratos.
Abilities[]
- Potassium Chloride Ray (塩化カリウム熱線 Enkakariumu Nessen?): Germanium II can fire a more powerful version of Godzilla's atomic breath, coloured purple.
- Tentacles: Germanium II can use his prehensile tentacles in combat as melee weapons, slapping and striking opponents with them.
- Spiritual Infusion (魂の注入 Tamashī no Chūnyū?): Germanium II can merge the spirit of Germanium with his attacks or himself to make himself stronger for short amounts of time.
- Miracle Regeneration (奇跡の再生 Kiseki no Saisei?): Germanium II can quickly regenerate damaged parts of his body. However, these regenerated parts take some time to reach their full strength. Germanium II was also able to completely regenerate his body from just a tiny piece of that of Germanium, though his genetic code changed due to the environment the piece was present in, explaining his noticeable differences from his ancestor.
- Combination Techniques
- Magnificent Mighty Strike (壮大なマイティストライク Sōdaina Maiti Sutoraiku?): A combination attack with WeegeeZilla, used against Myos. Accelerating to an incredible speed, Germanium II and WeegeeZilla rush towards the target and strike them simultaneously with as much physical power as possible.
Weaknesses[]
- Germanium II's tentacles, while powerful weapons, are not suited for blocking energy beams.

Trivia[]
- Germanium II's design originally came from a redesign of the original Germanium. I liked the design enough that I ended up making it into a character all of its own, and Germanium II was born!
