Premise

Set in 2097, most of Earth's kaiju (monsters) live on an island out in the Pacific Ocean called Godzilla Island, which is monitored by G-Guard. The creatures living on the island includes Godzilla, Godzilla Junior, Mothra, Mothra Leo, Rodan, Fire Rodan, King Ghidorah, Mecha-King Ghidorah, Mechagodzilla (the Heisei version), Anguirus, Gigan, Hedorah, Destoroyah, Baragon, King Caesar, Moguera, Megalon, Battra, SpaceGodzilla, Gorosaurus, Kamacuras and Jet Jaguar. Torema and Zagreth's kaiju (or monsters) includes a black-coloured Mechagodzilla (the Showa version), a fully mechanical King Ghidorah (called Hyper-Mecha King Ghidorah), a new version of Hedorah (called Neo Hedorah), Kumasogami (named Dororin in the series), Jigora (a species of kaiju from Torema's home planet that looks like pallette swaps of Godzilla Junior), a powered-up version of SpaceGodzilla, a different version of Fake Godzilla, Proto Moguera (Which resembles the original Moguera from The Mysterians) and Gororin (a sentient ball-shaped cactus). One kaiju that did not appear in a Godzilla movie, a miniature version of Dogora, also appears for a few episodes, working with Zagreth. Kumonga, Ebirah, Varan, Manda, the Showa Mechagodzilla, Titanosaurus, Gabara (though a location is named after him), Minilla, Biollante, Oodako, Ookondoru, and Shockirus does not appear in the series. Ebirah, Manda and Varan are mentioned in the theme song, while King Kong does not appear in the series due to legal reasons.

Marketing

A large number of tie-in toys were produced for this series by Bandai, since this series' kaiju sequence was filmed through the use of action figures.

A CD of theme music, mostly composed by Akira Ifukube, was released in 1997 by Polygram entitled 'Welcome To Godzilla Island'.

In 2007, a 4-disc DVD set including every episode of the show was released in Japan at a price of 16,000 yen (approx. $160).[3]

In 2018, Toho began streaming the series in Japan on the official Godzilla YouTube channel, with each episode made available for four weeks after its release.[3]
