Ever since he appeared before us, the King of Monsters has made his name known throughout the world. The first film in the series, released in 1954, was an unprecedented hit with an audience of 9.61 million people. He boasts wide popularity and overwhelming recognition among men and women of all ages. Godzilla, who has been depicted as a being that transcends human understanding, has played an active role on screen, sometimes as a wall for humans to overcome, and sometimes as an ally of humans. Its popularity has spread overseas, and it has even been made into a live-action movie in Hollywood. He will continue to reign as the strongest monster king.

*What is SCRAP? *
In 2008, SCRAP Co., Ltd. was established. We created real escape games by renting out amusement parks and stadiums, created mysteries in books, apps, and TV programs, and while helping companies with their mystery-solving promotion plans, we became recognized by the public as a mystery event production company. A free paper production company from Kyoto that has gone out of business (and the free paper is currently on hiatus). Riding on the momentum, a fan club called “Shonen Detective SCRAP Team” was also formed. They collaborate with TV stations, record companies, etc., and are constantly creating new entertainment.
