Ryûnosuke Kamiki stars in this Japanese sci-fi action thriller written and directed by Takashi Yamazaki. Koichi Shikishima (Kamiki) is a former kamikaze pilot who survived the war by aborting his suicide mission. When he is confronted with the might of Godzilla for the first time, he freezes, which compounds his feelings of guilt and cowardice.<br/><br/>As Japan struggles to recover from the devastation of the war, Koichi finds some measure of peace with Noriko (Minami Hamabe), who has rescued an orphaned baby girl. Wanting to provide for them, Koichi accepts a dangerous job clearing mines from the waters outside Tokyo, until Godzilla returns. Now even more formidable and able to immediately regenerate from injury after having been bathed in radiation from the nuclear test in 1946, Godzilla proceeds to lay waste to Tokyo.<br/><br/>As a group of civilians come together to stop Godzilla, will Koichi now be able to redeem himself?

The arresting original Godzilla soon gave rise to an entire monster-movie genre (kaiju eiga), but the King of the Monsters continued to reign supreme: in fourteen fiercely entertaining sequels over the next two decades, Godzilla defended its throne against a host of other formidable creatures, transforming from a terrifying symbol of nuclear annihilation into a benevolent (if still belligerent) Earth protector. Collected here for the first time are all fifteen Godzilla films of Japan's Showa era, in a landmark set showcasing the technical wizardry, fantastical storytelling, and indomitable international appeal that established the most iconic giant monster the cinema has ever seen.<br/><br/>This lavish and much sought-after collection features high-definition digital transfers of all fifteen Godzilla films made between 1954 and 1975, released together for the first time. Beautifully presented in a bumper, bonus-packed box set, the package includes an illustrated deluxe hardcover book featuring an essay by cinema historian Steve Ryfle, notes on the films by cinema historian Ed Godziszewski, and new illustrations by Arthur Adams, Sophie Campbell, Becky Cloonan, Jorge Coelho, Geof Darrow, Simon Gane, Robert Goodin, Benjamin Marra, Monarobot, Takashi Okazaki, Angela Rizza, Yuko Shimizu, Bill Sienkiewicz, Katsuya Terada, Ronald Wimberly, and Chris Wisnia.
