Quite naturally, a scene of Gojira helping a little old (blue-haired) lady across the street.

SUGGESTED USAGE:

mezurashiku jibun o mitsume naoshita gojira wa BOKU WA NAKANAKA II HITO DA. TADA GOKAI SARETA DAKE DA. to tawagoto o itta.
In a rare moment of introspection, Godzilla babbled, 'I'm a nice guy - Just misunderstood.'
