Son of Godzilla (怪獣島の決戦 ゴジラの息子 Kaijūtō no Kessen: Gojira no Musuko) is a Daikaiju film directed by Jun Fukuda.
Also titled Monster Island's Decisive Battle: Godzilla's Son, its the eighth Godzilla film, notable for the introduction of Minya and further Godzilla development into a hero. At least in the English-speaking fandom, this recieved a mixed reaction. Minya became one of the least-loved monsters in the franchise, and the Lighter and Softer direction isn't exactly welcomed, but the movie itself isn't bad. It garnered a 71% at Rotten Tomatoes, and the scenes between Godzilla and Minya can be heartwarming.
