Get Going! Godzilland (すすめ!ゴジランド is a series of four children's educational OVAs funded and released to VHS by Susume! Gojirando)Gakken. The first two, released in 1994, were produced by Toho Music Releasing and animated by Film Magic. The second two, released in 1996, were produced by OBA Produce and animated by Group Tac. The series uses Godzilla and other kaiju drawn in a super-deformed style to teach children about the hiragana syllabary, counting, addition, and subtraction. Its opening theme is "Godzilland".
Though the series is unavailable in English officially, Wakalan Translations uploaded fansubs for all four OVAs to YouTube from 2016 to 2019.[1]
Summary
Get Going! Godzilland is loosely based on the animated segments from Adventure! Godzilland, and focuses on a young Godzilla and his friends living together on Godzilland as they learn about various subjects. The first two OVAs were released in 1994, and focused on the hiragana alphabet and counting. The next two were released in 1996 and focused on addition and subtraction. The second pair of OVAs are notable for introducing more monsters as well as featuring live-action segments with Godzilla and his human sister, where he tells her about his childhood, shown through the animated segments.
In the show, Godzilla and the other monsters are portrayed as young children that live together as friends. They live on the island with Mothra, the only adult in the show, who acts a maternal figure to the other monsters while raising her two twin larvae. Godzilla frequently gets into arguments with his best friend Anguirus, which often drive the plot of the episodes. Mechagodzilla is portrayed as being very lonely and desperate to make friends. Because of this, Mechagodzilla tries to kidnap Godzilla's friends and force them to be his new friends, forcing Godzilla and the others to save them. Despite being seen as an antagonist, the mecha's lonely nature means that he often ends up being taken in by the others as a friend once those he captures are rescued.
