8/10
New direction mixed with old methods
30 November 2022
The ending of this work leads to the opening scene of the animated and manga version of "Nausicaa on the Valley of the Wind" by Hayao Miyazaki.

The Giant Warriors appear in "Nausicaa on the Valley of the Wind.

The climactic scene in "Nausicaa on the Valley of the Wind" where the Giant Warrior appears was animated by Hideaki Anno, who was still a student. He also wrote the screenplay for this film.

The destruction scene tested in this film will be more effectively recreated in "Shin Godzilla," also by Hideaki Anno and Shinji Higuchi.

In this film, the atmosphere of old special effects is preserved by daring to use models and panelizing the figures in a way that is possible with computer graphics at a time when this was possible.

For a generation like mine, born in the 60's, this work was nostalgic and the sharp direction was a surprise not found in the old tokusatsu productions.
