The Godzilla Anime website has been official updated with the release date and official synopsis of the film. Godzilla: Kaiju Planet (Godzilla: Kaijū Wakusei), is the official title, and their Twitter page also posted a few more pics one a "top secret" folder (Anime Japan giveaway/promo) and the other being another concept pic (bottom). The official synopsis is below. Also of note the site has been updated but is very slow, there are "mecha" of some type shown but at this point not "clickable".
"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?"

In the TOHO animation booth (East 6 Hall: J82), there is also a large-scale banner exhibition of key visuals and a reproduction exhibition of the huge mechanic appearing in the main part! It is! # Anigodzi" (translated via Google Translate). The official Twitter page continued the countdown toward Anime Japan with another piece of concept art, what is the Aratrum Mothership bridge per the text in the pic. The text with reads as follows (per Google Translate) - "10 more days to AJ 2017, 10 days have passed until the new information is announced! The third countdown planning is "concept art" again. I will gradually tell you about the worldview of the movie to animation Japan little by little. Continue to look forward to the latest information on the theatrical release movie "GODZILLA"!" Hopefully we get a reveal of Godzilla soon too.
Another Godzilla Anime pic has surfaced, this one seems to be an early concept pic from the translation of the post from the official Twitter page. He is the (Google Translate) translation: "Today I will show you the initial image rough sketch. It is what the production designer of this work, who served as art director in numerous masterpieces, painted at the beginning of the project. #Anigodzi" (Japanese text-【AJ2017まであと20日】「AnimeJapan 2017」REDステージ(3/26)に『GODZILLA』は登場! 本日は初期イメージラフスケッチをお見せします。数々の名作で美術監督を務めてきた本作のプロダクションデザイナーが企画初期に描いたものです。#anigodzi). Hopefully we get a full reveal at Anime Japan March 26 & 27.
A new concept image for the Godzilla Anime film was posted on Twitter, yes this is an official image this time, and it reveals this may be a futuristic film. It was posted with a message that suggests they will be post images/updates as a countdown to Anime Japan 2017 that happens in a month on March 25 and 26. There is set to be a specific event for the film on the Red stage there. More info as we get it.
The image above posted on Twitter by @sttcom3373 appears to be a concept image much like the one we posted previously except this one reveals Godzilla. There are definitely similarities between the two, the writing in the upper right is almost the same as the previous pic and this version of Godzilla seems to have Shin Godzilla vibe. One major concern is no Toho copyright on the image which the previous one has. More as we get it. Thanks to MyKaiju Godzilla for the find.
From Twitter, (translation) "@sttcom3373 Sorry to the contrary! This is just a delusive fan art .... I do not have any relationship with official.", actual Tweet is below.
Godzilla was born in 1954 from H-bomb test and Toho has made this simple premise into the biggest movie series of all time. They made use of miniatures and real world special effects to bring it to life. Toho has stay with this approach for 50 years and 28 installments they are releasing the first Godzilla movie in over 12 years, Shin Godzilla on July 29, 2016. To celebrate is the exhibition, Godzilla At The Museum: Creative Tracks Of Daikaiju showcasing those miniatures and special effects of the Godzilla movies, design drawings, set drawings, documentary photography, and the like, as well as focusing on the illustrations and three-dimensional modeling that has been created on the basis of the Godzilla movies. It shows the imagination, creativity, power of expression, and will introduce the boundless charm of subject that Godzilla. In addition there will be a screening of Shin Godzilla and even an awesome event Godzilla Vs Orchestra, featuring a live orchestra playing Akira Ifukube's music while the original Godzilla film is shown. The event runs from July 15, 2016 - August 31, 2016, at the Fukuoka Art Museum with the Godzilla Vs Orchestra event taking place at Fukuoka Symphony Hall on June 15. Earlier we posted the announcement regarding Shin Godzilla including the Godzilla Vs Evangelion promo print now we have more pics of the merchandise (below) and there were logos as well (above) besides the print. There was rumor as well of a crossover movie but that part was a April Fool's joke on Toho's part but considering Neon Genesis Evangelion director Hideaki Anno is doing Shin Godzilla is wasn't so far fetched.
It has been announced that advance tickets for Shin Godzilla will go on sale April 23, the film hit theaters July 29, 2016. Those that get advance sell tickets will receive a "Godzilla Vs. Evangelion" print. They are limited to 55,555 and will be no more then two per person (one per ticket). It looks like other merchandise will be released as well including towels, t-shirts, key rings, and posters. It appears both the Evangelion and Shin Godzilla websites are involved in the promo.
