I know I should be here commenting on the film, but I’m so impressed and enamored with the interpreter. He does such a good job retaining and delivering all the charm and details of Yamazaki-san’s long answers in such a natural way. Congratulations on the Oscar win!

この通訳さん、凄い優秀な方ですね。山﨑監督のおっしゃっていた事、ニュアンスまでほぼというか完璧に近く英語で伝えていて、素晴らしいと思いました。山﨑監督は今後もこの通訳さんを専任にした方が良いと思いました。ま、監督自身もそう思っていらっしゃると思いますがw

ありがとございます！ Thank you!

What I loved most was the beautiful humanity -- forgiveness, guilt, shame, an internal war addressed in my favorite scene…..I did not need Godzilla but so needed the journey of the main characters….the love, Phoenix like rebirth of the main character, the love story -- a happy ending

I started watching this film with my mother, after convincing her we should watch it. I KNEW it was going to be so amazing, the fleshed out story and characters are so beautiful. Such an amazing, but also intense and passionate movie. The best I’ve seen this year.

Not usually into monster movies, so I ended up having to watch this for a class and WOW, i never wouldve thought it was on a small budget or with a small team, story wise it was wonderful and visually it was truly stunning! I thought everything was shot so beautifully!! Truly so well deserved!

I hope future Toho projects can find their way to the same level of success and notoriety... this guy brings a vibe that is absolutely missing "Modern Hollywood"... I'm sure our directors look at this guy with a bit of envy... getting to create without the crushing weight of a billion dollar box office expectation, and endless studio tampering... and he completely leans into his VFX role, and gives his team proper recognition, where we are actively trying to hide our VFX's artists contribution out of some ridiculous shame... Thanks for the interview upload, toho has been pretty reserved with bonus features on their physical releases here in the US, so this definitely helps fill that void for this wonderful movie!

NOW, Imagine a Hideo Kojima and Takashi Yamazaki Collaboration.

[@user-ej9bt6vb9h]

He did visit Kojima Productions not too long ago

[@chunzprocessor]

45:10 I'm happy that he really loves Shin Godzilla. Totally agree! xD

[@RafaelbySuzannah]

Budgetary limits prevented pollution so no harm to the ocean and sea life

[@nabi5864]
