Too bad it isn't made by Anno. (still curious about it)

Is this the first ever animated project centered on Gojira based in Japan?

This is like an era of new gojira, after that Shin Godzilla live action last year (that receives many nominations on JAA) and now this anime. Concept art looks great O.O

May not be made by Anno but the project is being Written by none other than Gen Urobuchi.

And yes, this is the first Animated Godzilla centered Project in Japan.

This. At least please tell me it will have minimal amount of CG and we'll get glorious trad animation kaiju vs mecha battles. I want to munch bucket of popcorns watching this :x. It'll be so fucking grea-

I've been a Godzilla fan all my life so I'm definitely looking forward to this. However, I'm not too enthused with the concept art. The art by itself looks great but I'm just not sure how it's going to work with a Godzilla storyline.

@Clebardman Ahah, I didn't think about the 3DCGI risk but now that you mention it...

@fatboyftw I skipped most of the 2005-2015 production, so I am still not sold at Urobochi's genius. Actually, him and this female anime writer (Mari something) mean nothing to me until I find several worthy titles from under their pen.

Time to start ramping up my personal hype for the next Godzilla film.

With this, Anno's work last year, and the 2014 American film getting a sequel in 2019, not to mention all the Re-releases of films (Including a FINALLY uncut version of 1985!), this is a GREAT time to be a Godzilla fan! Just, ignore that shitty PS4 game.

Maybe the cast would make me watch a 3DCG anime. The fact that it is Godzilla and has Sugita earns a few points in my book.
I find it funny that Yuki Kaji most notable role is Classicaloid not Attack on Titan or even Bananya (praise be). At least now Classicaloid fans can joke about Mozarts and Beethoven battling Godzilla, all 12 of us.
The concept art looks nothing like any Godzilla film before. It looks more futuristic and reminds me of Avatar (blue people).

Dude, it's not about the most notable role, it's rather about the most recent role.

I use notable mainly as a joke and kind of figured it was most recent, but you're right. so...

I'm really sick of her voice. The same cutesy shit all the time really begins to become grating.
The truth is best told straight.
