Custom Jellar (カスタムジュラー Kasutamu Jurā) is an alien mollusk kaiju created by Toho that appeared in the 1973 episode 21 of Zone Fighter, "Invincible! Godzilla Enraged!".
Name
Custom Jellar's name is a combination of "Custom", likely a reference to how he's a clone, and "Jellar" referencing the kaiju who he originated from. Jellar's name is in turn derived from Planet Jellarl.
Origins
Custom Jellar grew from a torn piece of Jellar's tentacle during its battle with Godzilla and Zone Fighter in the suburbs of Tokyo.[2]
History
- Zone Fighter (TV 1973) [episode 21]
Showa era
Zone Fighter
"Invincible! Godzilla Enraged!"
After rescuing a weakened Zone Fighter from Jellar, Godzilla proceeded to beat down the alien mollusk. He tore off a part of one of Jellar's tentacles, and threw it behind him. However, he failed to notice it exploding upon hitting the ground and it quickly grew into Custom Jellar. It rushed into combat and tackled Godzilla on sight, knocking the reptilian to the ground. Custom proceeded to team up against Godzilla with its brother, battering the reptilian with his tentacles while his back was turned as the Monster King was beating down Jellar. At the same time, Zone Angel and Zone Junior recharged Zone Fighter via a Zone Marker Change from Smokey. Fighter reentered the fight as Jellar floored Godzilla with his acidic mist while Custom cheered on its sibling. Fighter made his presence known by slamming Jellar into the ground and charged towards Custom before kicking him to the ground. Fighter and Godzilla decided to fight their respective opponents one-on-one, with Godzilla facing Custom. After a short battle, he was rendered helpless after Godzilla threw him on the ground; Fighter followed by throwing Jellar on top of him. Godzilla then body-slammed the both of them, with Zone Fighter hopping on top of Godzilla and pushing down. With their opponents weakened, the heroic duo switched fighting partners, Custom now facing Zone Fighter offered minimal resistance; he was once again thrown to the ground by Godzilla after being kicked into the reptilian by Fighter. While immobilized, Godzilla instructed Fighter to throw Jellar in the air, then blasted the mollusk with his atomic breath, before the alien fell back to the ground and collided with Custom Jellar who was attempting to get back up. Jellar and Custom Jellar were then finished off by a combination of Godzilla's atomic breath and two volley's of Zone Fighter's Meteor Missile Might, reducing both mollusks to smoldering piles of flesh that eventually melted away.
Abilities
Physical abilities
Custom Jellar did not demonstrate any special abilities, simply body-slamming his enemies during combat as well as swinging around his tentacles. Custom Jellar was able to floor Godzilla however, by running into the reptilian while Godzilla was preoccupied with Jellar. He was also shown swiping at Godzilla with tentacles, and was able to briefly grapple against Zone Fighter with his them before being kicked away.
Intelligence
Custom Jellar was smart enough to recognize that Jellar was an ally of his, and promptly rescued his progenitor by ramming into Godzilla, knocking the reptilian over. He encouraged Jellar to keep spraying his acid mist on Godzilla by slamming his tentacles together.
Durability
Custom Jellar was able to withstand numerous physical blows from both Godzilla and Zone Fighter, including kicks, punches, and being thrown to the ground. He was also able to endure a body slam from Godzilla while also having Jellar stuck on top of him. He was floored when attempting to get back up after Jellar fell on top of him after his progenitor was thrown into the air and blasted with Godzilla's atomic breath. Custom Jellar was finally killed alongside Jellar after being hit with a combination of Godzilla's atomic breath and two volleys from Zone's Meteor Missile Might.
