Mikki in trouble

After watching the trailer for the latest Godzilla flick, it got me thinking about bondage in Godzilla movies. No, not Godzilla himself in bondage (although I'm sure there's probably a website devoted to that somewhere, and if that's what floats their boats, then more power to these glorious bastards), but scenes where a member of the female cast got tied up.

Let me introduce you to Megumi Odaka, who played psychic Miki Saegusa in several of the Godzilla movies that came out in the 1990s. In Godzilla Vs. Space Godzilla (1994) Mikki gets kidnapped by the Japanese mob. She's strapped to a cot in a warehouse where the mobsters try testing her psychic powers.

The mobsters seem to think that, if they control Mikki, they can somehow control Godzilla (Godzilla as a hitman? Or would he be better known as being a hitmonster?).

But Mikki is rescued by G-Force, the super-heroic good guys. Eat your heart out, Power Rangers!

And Mikki even helps out in her own rescue when one of the mobsters tries to use her as a billboard. The fact that Mikki was barefoot throughout her scene makes this a really pleasant one for me.
