Osaka Coastline In 1947 and "Godzilla Raids Again"?

Last year, my cousin Julie gave me 60 photos of post-war Osaka during the U.S. occupation.  They were taken by her father-in-law while he was stationed in Osaka around 1947.

One photo in the collection was this one:


The photo reminded me of this scene in Godzilla Raids Again (1955) (known in the U.S. as Gigantis, The Fire Monster) of a distance shot of burning Osaka:


I can't say that they both show the same coastline and the same mountains, but the views are quite similar.
