Shobijin: “Mothra will soon be here.”

Shinichi Chujo: “Mothra?”

Shobijin: “Mothra, she'll rescue us, and return us to our island!”

― Dialogue between the Shobijin and Shinichi Chujo (Mothra, 1961)

The first onscreen incarnation of the character, the original Mothra first appeared inside her egg on Infant Island when a joint Rolisican-Japanese expedition arrived on the island. When Clark Nelson kidnapped the Shobijin and brought them to Tokyo, Mothra hatched from her egg and followed them, laying waste to the city and cocooning herself on the Tokyo Tower. Mothra emerged in her imago form and pursued Nelson to New Kirk City, where she successfully recovered the Shobijin and returned to her island. By the events of Mothra vs. Godzilla, Mothra had laid an egg, which was washed ashore in Japan by a severe typhoon. When Godzilla appeared in Japan and began approaching the egg, Mothra left the island and fought Godzilla, but the battle cost her her life. However, two twin larvae hatched from the egg, and set out to continue their mother's fight.
