Development

News of Godzilla Singular Point was leaked through Twitter by user @SugoiLITE on October 6, 2020.[7] An official announcement followed later that day (or October 7 in Japan).[2] Director Atsushi Takahashi, screenwriter Toh EnJoe, character designer Kazue Kato, monster designer Eiji Yamamoto and composer Kan Sawada each provided brief statements on the series, with Yamamoto mentioning the appearance of multiple monsters and dedicating his work to his late brother.[5] On October 12, it was announced that a panel for Singular Point would be held during Godzilla Fest Online 2020 on November 3, with guests including Takahashi, EnJoe, Bones producer Naoki Amano, Orange producer Jiro Ando and Toho producer Takashi Yoshizawa.[8] A new poster for the anime was released on October 26, along with three screenshots. A short trailer followed later that day, showing off many of the series' other kaiju besides Godzilla.

The series' full cast of characters and their voice actors leaked onto the internet on the morning of December 8, 2020.[9] Later that day (December 9 in Japan), they were revealed officially.[10]

On New Year's Day in Japan, the Singular Point Twitter revealed a new piece of concept art, giving a clearer look at Godzilla's face.[11] Two days later, the godzilla-sp.jp site was updated to include Kazue Kato's concept art of the show's human cast.[12]

A second PV was released on February 1, revealing new footage and the series' ending theme "Blue" by the rock band Polkadot Stingray.

Concept art of Godzilla illustrated by Eiji Yamamoto and colored by Yuji Kaneko was released on the night of February 11, giving the first full body look at the design.[13]

On February 18, it was announced that a Godzilla Singular Point panel would be held by stars Yume Miyamoto, Shoya Ishige, Misaki Kuno and Yohei Azakami at AnimeJapan 2021 on March 27.[14]

Several announcements were made on February 22, including the reveal of new key art and the name of the series' opening theme "in case..." performed by Japanese girl group BiSH. The series will debut on Netflix in Japan on March 25, ahead of its April television broadcast.[1]

The third promotional video for Godzilla Singular Point was released on March 9, giving the first glimpses at Godzilla in motion as well as several of the series' other monsters.

The first two episodes of the series were screened[15] at Toho Cinemas Hibiya in Tokyo[16] on March 19 as part of a "Completion Announcement Event." The event and first episode were also streamed on YouTube exclusively in Japan.[15]

Marketing

A collaboration between Godzilla Singular Point and the Japanese boat race Boat Race Amagasaki was announced on January 20, 2021 with details to follow in February.[17] A "Godzilla Singular Point Cup" race was held from March 10 to 15.[18] An official website for the collaboration, br-amagasaki-godzilla-sp.jp, was launched on February 8[19] along with a short promotional video for the event. Various pieces of merchandise were available to those who spent over 1,000 yen in online voting, with more given out as part of a raffle for those who bet on the six winning racers.[20]

Bandai Movie Monster Series figures of the Singular Point Godzilla and Jet Jaguar were announced on February 28, the former revealing a new name of "Godzilla Ultima."[21] Additional figures, including those of Anguirus and Manda, were reported by SciFi Japan on March 13.[6]

Various Singular Point clothing items were announced on March 16.[22] Two days later, it was announced that additional merchandise would be made available for online purchase during AnimeJapan 2021.[23]

The first images of the Bandai Anguirus and Manda figures surfaced online on March 19.[24]

Notes

  1. While the characters S.P would normally be read as esupī (エスピー), the furigana 「シンギュラポイント」 indicates its pronunciation as Shingyura Pointo ("Singular Point"). In the absence of furigana, the title may be written with angle brackets as 「ゴジラS.P<シンギュラポイント>」. The series' official logo capitalizes its English title as "Godzilla Singular point."
  2. 2.0 2.1 Episodes 1 and 2 premiered ahead of their Netflix release at a screening on March 19.
