Gojiban (ゴジばん) is an ongoing multi-segmented Japanese puppet web series co-produced by Toho, AlphaBoat, and Studio Koganemushi which premiered on the Godzilla Channel YouTube channel on August 9, 2019. The series is the result of a Godzilla-based audition campaign held by the collaborative project GEMSTONE and reuses puppets from Koganemushi's 2004 puppet show, Gekigoji.
Plot
Gojiban episodes typically alternate between Go! Go! Godzilla-kun (Go! Go!ゴジラくん, in which Go Go Gojira-kun)Godzilla-kun teaches Minilla and Little how to fight, and Attention! Godzilla (かまった!ゴジラ, in which Kamatte Gojira)Kamatte-kun appears before people in times of need. Each episode ends with Old Man Hedo (ヘドじい, where a conversation occurs between the titular Hedojī)Old Man Hedo and his grandson as they trek through a seemingly endless wasteland. However, episode 6 features all three segments.
An additional segment, titled Ask Jet Jaguar (ジェットジャガーに訊け, was featured in the show's pilot but has yet to make an appearance in the final series. In it, Jetto Jagā ni Kike)Jet Jaguar answers press questions from a podium at a news conference.

Awards
A pilot for Gojiban was submitted in March of 2019 to the first GEMSTONE Creators Audition, which had the theme of "Godzilla." It was awarded the grand prize of 300,000 yen, along with G vs. G, Fiction, Gifu Godzilla, DRESS, and Godzilla Trailer.[2] The prize-winning creators were thus given the opportunity to work with producers at Toho, with Gojiban becoming a full series aired on the official Godzilla Channel months later.
