I'm not really a Godzilla fan but that looks pretty sweet.

This is the greatest time to be alive if you are a G fan. Can't wait for this.

Giantrobo

Yeah this looks very interesting. So much good G stuff coming out!

I thought there was a thread in Anime Talk, but no.

I guess I've just been reading about this on other forums for a while now so I thought everyone was aware.

Finally watched this last night after reading lots of Negative reviews. So glad I watched...I LOVED IT. Godzilla is a FUCKIN' BEAST. Part 2 is supposed to hit in May.

I dug this a lot, too. Although for a film called "Monster Planet" there sure wasn't much monster action. Now that all the world-building exposition is out of the way, the sequels have no reason not to crush it.

G was a bruiser here. Loved his different origin and powers.

Animation was a bit clunky and the action looked terrible when things got heated, but I'm also not an anime fan so it wasn't a huge bother.

Loved the opening monster cameos but def not enough of any of them.

Can't wait for part 2. Mechagodzilla!

I was dismissive of this due to it being animated. I have been a fan of G since I was young. Guess I should check it out.

How does one see this?

Watched it with my son the other night and we both liked it. It suffers from some story issues (exodus and return were rushed) but it's got some good monster action. Like islandclaws said, now that everything is set up, parts 2 and 3 should be more hardcore action.

Why So Blu?

Just finished watching this and thought it was great. Loved the heavy sci-fi angle and G was incredible. I thought the animation style rocked. It almost reminded me of Tim Bradstreet artwork blended in with some cgi.

Rumor has it that will be in Part 2. This is also part of a trilogy, so expect the last part before year's end.

islandclaws

^ Not really a rumor. They've already said MechaG would be in the sequel.

Here is a really cool timeline a guy put together for this Anime based on some related sources. It helped me clear some stuff up.

Godzilla meets After Earth... I kept wondering why they didn't populate the surface of the moon or Mars instead of going adrift searching for a new Earth. And I'm trying to understand more about the EXIF, they seem to be like the aliens that brought Megalon?

Why So Blu?

This is the title of Part 2:

Godzilla: Battle Mobile Breeding City

CharlieK

I might have missed something but with the entire planet available to them, was there a reason they landed right where Godzilla was? Or are we to assume there are Godzillas all over the place?

milo bloom

The whole place is a mess. What I gathered was they wanted to deal with what they saw was the worst threat first.

Giantrobo

They had a plan for dealing with Godzilla based on the work of Haruo and on the suggestion of that alien working with him that Humans CANNOT co-exist with Godzilla .

Yeah, it's kinda vague there, but I got the impression

I would like to learn more about the Exif.

Giantrobo

Exif...potential bad guys? Agenda? We'll see...

Part two is on Netflix now.
