Gamera (ガメラ) is a giant, flying, turtle-like kaiju who will star in the upcoming 2023 anime series GAMERA -Rebirth-.
Development
For GAMERA -Rebirth-, Gamera was designed by Kan Takahama,[2] who previously designed and modeled Toto[3] in Gamera the Brave and designed Gamera for Katsuhito Ishii's 2015 short film.[4]
Design
Gamera's appearence is heavily reminicent of the design from the 2015 Gamera short film, specifically in the monster's posture, carapace shape, and head shape. However, this Gamera is a dark greenish-blue in color, with bright blue-green accents on his spiked plastron. He has large, bright green eyes and a pointed snout, a longer tail, as well as large front "hands". Similar to the Heisei incarnation of the character, while flying, this Gamera's front limbs transform into flipper-like "wings", with bright blue jets of flame blasting out from the wings and where his hind limbs would usually be.
