The short Giant God Warrior Appears in Tokyo is almost nine-minutes of live-action kaiju insanity. This is no fan film, however. Giant God was produced by Studio Ghibli — the studio’s first live-action effort — and features a monster design by Miyazaki. The short originally played in theaters along with Evangelion 3.0 You Can (Not) Redo, and is on the Evangelion 3.33 Blu Ray/DVD. “Kyoshinhei Tokyo ni Arawaru” (Giant God Warriors Appear in Tokyo) is a short Tokusatsu movie created as a promotional video for the “TOKUSATSU – Special Effects Exhibition” at “TOKUSATSU – Special Effects Museum”, which has Anno Hideaki (Eva’s director) as museum director, in Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo. The movie was proposed to be shown with “Evangelion 3.0” by Suzuki Toshio and Anno Hideaki agreed with that. As a movie version, its pictures and sounds will we re-modified and it has the total length of 10:07 minutes. The movie features “Kyoshinhei” (Giant God Warriors) from “Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind” and it was made to show the fascination and the fun of Miniature Tokusatsu.
