Cross-media picks for Ishirō Honda fans — films, series, games and books in the same vein.

Colossal monsters, alien invasions, ancient powers resurfacing in industrial cities — the territory fans of Ishirō Honda will recognise immediately. Doomed Megalopolis, Gunbuster, Akira — different media, the same tremor underneath.

Frequently asked

What should I watch if I like Ishirō Honda?

Start with kaiju sequels like Godzilla Raids Again and Godzilla, Mothra and King Ghidorah: Giant Monsters All-Out Attack, then try the anime Godzilla Singular Point for a more cerebral spin, or Doomed Megalopolis for supernatural city-under-siege atmosphere.

Are there books for Ishirō Honda fans?

Yes — Akira, Vol. 2 follows Tetsuo's unstable powers threatening Neo-Tokyo; Universal Studios Monsters charts the parallel Hollywood horror tradition from the 1920s through the 1950s; and Unit 731 Testimony documents the wartime atrocities that form part of kaiju cinema's historical backdrop.

Are there games for Ishirō Honda fans?

GODZILLA (2014) lets you play as the King of the Monsters — levelling cities and fighting rival kaiju — while Godzilla: Save the Earth delivers multiplayer monster brawls, and The Thing (2002) channels paranoid creature-horror through an Antarctic survival game.
