Trivia
This is the first animated Godzilla film, but not the first animated adaptation of the franchise. The first was an American animated series produced by Hanna-Barbera in 1978. A series of four educational OVAs titled Get Going! Godzilland that featured Godzilla and several other monsters were released in 1994 and 1996. Another American animated series, this time based on the 1998 American Godzilla film, ran from 1998 to 2000.

Quotes
Metphies: [to Godzilla Earth] When those fleeting lives destined to die, forget their humbleness and sing praised of their glory, such will shake the very heavens and split the earth, and they shall know the wrath of the divine. The inevitable incarnation of destruction. So, you show yourself at last. Since we last saw each other, it has been 20 years for us and 20,000 years for you. It's been awhile... Oh, King of Destruction.

Crazy credits
After the final credits, a short scene explains the fate of Haruo and sets up the next installment in the series.

Alternate versions
Originally, the after-credits scene included a glimpse at MechaGodzilla. This was cut from Netflix's international release of the film.
