Shin did set up for a sequel.

why? It's a huge box office success in Japan, so I guess there'll be one soon enough

It was a huge hit, but Toho is looking at creating new stories each time. Plus Hideaki Anno doesn't want to direct a sequel as of now.

[RalphoR]

I'm surprised Anno wouldn't direct a sequel.....especially how Shin ended.

not related, but this is insane Shin Godzilla just swept Japanese Academy Award in 7 categories including best picture, best director, editing, cinematography, art direction, lightning, sound recording

[RalphoR]

Excellent! Can't wait for the 4k uhd steel book from this 7 times over Japanese Academy Award winner....even though I won't have a clue what they're saying.

Godzilla Anime Film Reveals Full Title, Story, New Visual, November Premiere

The official website for Polygon Pictures' Godzilla anime film revealed the film's November debut in Japan and the film's full title on Friday. The full title is Godzilla: Kaijū Wakusei (Godzilla: Monster Planet). The site also revealed a new visual for the film:



The tagline on the above poster reads "We will definitely take back this 'Planet'."

The official website describes the story:

The last summer of the 20th Century. That day, the human beings learn that they are not the only ruler of the planet Earth.

The appearance of the giant living creatures “Kaiju's” and the ultimate existence that destroys all monsters: Godzilla. Through the battle against kaiju's that lasted for half a century, human beings has experienced continuous defeat, and finally plans to escape from the Earth. And in 2048, only those who were selected by the A.I. managed under the central government boarded the inter-sidereal emigrant spaceship “Aratrum” to head for “Tau Cetus e”, the planet beyond the distance of 11.9 light-year. However, the environmental condition differences between that of the Earth and Tau e, which they finally arrived after 20 years were far beyond the predicted numbers, and was not an environment considered to be habitable by human beings.

The young man on the emigrant ship: Haruo, who saw his parents killed by Godzilla in front of his eyes when he was 4 years old, had only one thing in his mind for 20 years: to return to the Earth and defeat Godzilla. Shut out from the possibility of emigration, as the living environment in the ship deteriorates, the group of “Earth Returnists” led by Haruo became the majority, and determines to head back to Earth through a dangerous long-distance hyperspace navigation. However, the Earth they have returned has already passed the time of 20,000 years, and has become an unknown world with the ecosystem reigned by Godzilla.

At the end, will human beings win back the Earth? And what will Haruo see beyond his fate?

The film will also stream globally on the Netflix service this year.
