Godzilla Anime Trilogy Director Returns for Gamera Rebirth

Godzilla Anime Trilogy Director Returns for Gamera Rebirth

Hiroyuki Seshita returns to the kaiju genre as the lead director of Gamera's revival in the upcoming anime series Gamera -Rebirth-. Seshita, a long time Godzilla fan, was one of the co-directors on Polygon's Anime Godzilla Trilogy. His partner was Kobun Shizuno.

Seshita brings with him a host of writing talent which includes Hiroshi Seko, best known for writing the bulk of the Attack on Titan anime, Tetsua Yamada (Godzilla: City on the Edge of Battle) and Kenta Ihara (Ajin). Kan Takahama will design the monsters, having previously worked on the acclaimed Shinya Tsukamoto's Tetsuo II. The voice cast includes Hisako Kanemoto (Atra from Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans), Yoshitsugu Matsuoka (Hashibira from Demon Slayer), Aki Toyosaki (Young Teoni from Demon Slayer) and Subaru Kimura (Takeshi Goda from Doraemon).

Hopefully.

To be fair though, most of the things I personally hated about that trilogy had to do with the writing and how they wasted the more interesting concepts and the kaiju themselves, so maybe this series will be an improvement.

Oh my friend just pointed out, there is 4 more "Coming Soon" marks on the poster. And only one enemy kaiju, but he is gonna face 5 kaijus. So i wonder if the silhouettes of the last 4 kaijus will take up the spots where the "Coming Soon" notices are, the closer the release date comes.

I think gamera: rebirth is going to come out before blockbuster monster movie, usually when a trailer drops for something that means its coming out in about 2-4 months, my bet is that its coming out in June, its the same month singular point aired, maybe June is netflix,s new kaiju time slot. Im betting on the kaiju no.8 anime airing in June next year to.

then again, s.p. and the chain saw man anime were both announced long before they actually started (or start) airing, so  its really uncertain with anime. Im just betting on g.r. coming out before blockbuster monster movie.
