Trivia
- Yumi Kameyama is the second known suit actress to portray a kaiju in a film, and the first to portray a daikaiju in a film. Mayumi Aguni had played the human-sized Liliput a little over three years earlier in the 1991 film Zeiram.
- Kameyama is beaten as the first daikaiju suit actress overall by Jennie Kaplan, who played Pigmon in an episode of the television series Ultraman: The Ultimate Hero, released just over a year prior to Gamera the Guardian of the Universe.
- According to special effects director Shinji Higuchi, a woman was chosen to portray Super Gyaos because "the shape of a woman's body is different from that of a man's" and "since virtually all of the people who work in the special effects field are men, I thought that I could make it a little easier for women to enter the field by having one play Gyaos."[3]
