Until April 23, the 8th floor of the Hotel Gracery Shinjuku will be hosting a wonderful diorama featuring Godzilla's squaring off against Kiryu. It was quite a dynamic sight to behold, so let's let the photos do the rest of the talking. Enjoy!

Evangelion x Shin Kamen Rider Sakaba Opens in Shinjuku for a Limited Time!

While walking in between train stations earlier tonight (Sunday, March 26), I happened upon the newly-opened Evangelion x Shin Kamen Rider Sakaba in Kabukicho, Shinjuku. Don't get your hopes up about this new establishment, though. It will only be open from March 10 until May 28. 

I didn't enter it, however, because 1) I had no time, and 2) I wasn't that interested. But I thought it was worth blogging about, so here you go.

For the first time in a really long time, I paid a visit to Kabukicho and photographed the Godzilla head atop the Hotel Gracery Shinjuku. Here's what I saw.

While it may not be receiving the fanfare of Shin Godzilla, or even Godzilla: Planet of the Monsters, the new animated Godzilla film is finally getting its promotional roll-out in Japan. Here's how things currently look at Toho Cinemas Shinjuku.






Now there's a guy who definitely looks like he wants "motto" pancakes!

Will the Real 'Greatest Showman' Please Stand Up?


This was the scene today at the Hotel Gracery Shinjuku. Hugh Jackman might think he's the "Greatest Showman," but I think the real deal is standing right above him.

GODZILLA VS. THE MILITARY! A Team of Helicopters Battles the Kaiju King!

The JSDF is called in to attack Godzilla! ... or maybe not. Photo by Brett Homenick. 

Given the events of today, a couple of helicopters were buzzing around the skies of Shinjuku when I visited the Hotel Gracery. It certainly added an interesting dimension to these photos I took. If the military were called in to attack Godzilla, I suppose it would look a lot like this.




GODZILLA RETURNS! The King of the Monsters Is Back at the Hotel Gracery!

In honor of Godzilla's recent birthday (November 3), a visitor stomped his way into the Hotel Gracery Shinjuku. Take a look at who crashed the party!
