Nijigennomori Inc. is proud to announce the opening today of a brand-new Godzilla collaboration room, “Showa TOHO Monsters Archives,”.

This special room celebrates classic Godzilla-era monsters, at the luxury villa GRAND CHARIOT Hokutoshichisei 135°, located in the northern part of Awaji Island.

Inspired by the nostalgic charm of the Showa Retro era (1926-1989)—when Japan’s iconic film Godzilla was born—this themed room brings together a spectacular lineup of monster that appeared in the Showa-Era of Toho Tokusatsu Films.

At the Nijigennomori Anime Awaji Island Park, located within Hyogo Prefectural Awaji Island Park, the world’s only attraction featuring a life-sized Godzilla (approx. 120 meters long) debuted in October 2020 under the name “National Awaji-Island Institute of Godzilla Disaster(NIGOD”. In 2025, the attraction celebrates its 5th anniversary.

To commemorate this milestone, Nijigen no Mori introduces the new Godzilla collaboration room “Showa TOHO Monsters Archives ” at its official luxury villa, GRAND CHARIOT Hokutoshichisei 135°.

Inside the collaboration room, guests will find three-dimensional displays of weapons that appeared in battles with Godzilla in classic Showa-era Toho Tokusatsu Films (tokusatsu refers to Japanese live-action films that use special effects), along with replica scripts, storyboards, and sketches. Together, these elements create an immersive space that highlights the history of Godzilla.

In addition, the room is designed with a Showa retro motif, featuring traditional Japanese elements such as a chabudai (low dining table), zabuton cushions, enamel signs displaying the names of iconic monster, and shoji-style blackout curtains, creating an atmosphere that reflects the nostalgia of the era alongside these legendary monsters.

The collaboration room also offers a rich selection of room-exclusive original novelties and accommodation benefits. In addition to admission tickets to “Godzilla Interception Operation,” guests will receive a synthetic leather coaster engraved with Godzilla from “Godzilla Interception Operation” attraction and a concept art board featuring King Ghidorah, Godzilla’s greatest nemesis, who first appeared in Ghidorah, the Three-headed Monster. These items are available exclusively to guests staying the collaboration room.

Reservations are now open, via the official website:
