So, we've been here before.

Godzilla anime is on the horizon. I never make these kinda threads but, eh. This checks enough boxes I might as well. This will be a series on Netflix, so likely 12 episodes or so and features human character designs from Kazue Kato, Kaiju designs by Eiji Yamamori, story by Toh Enjoe, and directed by Atsushi Takahashi. As the title says, it is a co-production between Studio Bones and Orange, who if I had to guess would be divvying human and kaiju action accordingly. Though we'll see.

It's kind of a perfect storm of talent brought together with some distinctive human character designs and an fierce looking Godzilla. Reminds me a bit of a chunkier Kiryu Godzilla though we'll see what the full body looks like. No word on the exact story though a few guesses can be made from the cast.

So, let's see how it goes!

I like the art a lot so I'm cautiously optimistic about the series. Can't be more than that, nor I should, but at least I can keep the cautious optimism and hope it lives up to even more than that.

In the US? Yes!

Godzilla Vs. Megalon was a lot of people's first Godzilla since it got mass bootlegged back in the day (complicated legal situation, long story), which means people are pretty nostalgic for all its goofy dumb bullshit.

Netflix anime tends to pay a lot of attention to the US market, so something that gets Americans to go "Hey, I know that thing!" is a plus.

The kaiju I think might be Baragon could be Gabara.

The one I spied for a possible Manda could be Titanosaurus underwater

Not sure if I am a fan of how Godzilla's mouth looks when it is open. The proportions look off.

It's like his upper jaw is regular Godzilla but his lower jaw is that of an alligator or crocodile.

Being a lizard, Godzilla stores extra resources in his tail and booty. His rear end being thick is simply a sign that he is well fed and healthy.

The first episode has been subbed and it's pretty interesting. Clearly Godzilla has happened before but for some reason nobody remembers it.
