Alongside the release of Godzilla Resurgence (or Shin Godzilla) in Japan, the Namja Town indoor amusement park launched a fun themed menu at its food court after the iconic movie monster.
The Godzilla-themed menu in Tokyo, Japan includes a range of items such as the Mechagodzilla Mega Buster Tortilla, Mothra Cornet Pastry Pie and Shin Godzilla Ice Cream, most of which involve playful food shapes that resemble clawed feet, monster silhouettes and other frightening forms.
Other themed menus, cafes and restaurants that have previously launched in Japan include ones shaped around franchises like Sailor Moon, Pokemon, Hello Kitty and Kirby. These themed experiences are among some of the most popular and successful ways to promote a new movie, film, TV show or anime in Asia.
