Hideko Anno, the chief director of “Godzilla Resurgence”, was also the executive director of Evangelion, making this April Fools-themed collaboration between these two franchises even more poignant for fans of giant monster tales. For this special occasion, Godzilla designer Shinji Nishikawa and kaiju artist Yuji Kaida were contracted to make art pieces depicting these two popular monsters, and special prints and clear files of these pieces will be made available for fans who check out “Godzilla Resurgence” in theaters across Japan on July 29th.
