I haven't bought a single disc this year but I'll probably pick this up.

NGL - I'm a little bummed that Minus Color isn't also in 4K. :( Oh, I'm buying it ANYWAY... but just saying...

Also not sure what "Barrier Free Japanese" means...

I think Godzilla 2000 still edges this out slightly as my favorite Godzilla movie, but only just. I’ll need to pick this one up!

It's really rare that I hear Godzilla 2000 is anyone's favorite! Out of curiosity, have you seen many Godzilla films?

I prefer the later Millennium and later Heisei movies over Godzilla 2000, personally, but 2000 was good. I did like Minus One quite a bit more, though.

It's entirely possible that this is never released in 4K here (similar to Shin Godzilla), so if that's something you care about, I would preorder now. Even though the bonus features don't have subtitles, I wouldn't even bank on them all being included anyway for the US release later this year. Japanese special features usually aren't.

Use KAIJU15 for 15% off at checkout. If you sign up for updates, you might get another unique code for free shipping. Codes stack. I was able to preorder for USD 55 shipped.
