Monster Zero x SciFi Japan - Archive Only

It's simple, Walsh, and explained it the "About SciFi Japan" page on our site:

http://www.scifijapan.com/articles/about/.

Fans of Japanese sci-fi (including the staff of SciFi Japan) have lots of interests beyond Japanese sci-fi. That's why most Godzilla/toku message boards like MZ have sections devoted to other topics.

We get sent a lot of press materials for all kinds of stuff. And whenever we get something that interests us and we think would interest our readers we run it. That's been SFJ's policy for years... go back and look at the site and you'll find articles on Disney movies, IRON MAN, TRANSFORMERS, British programs like PRIMEVAL, THE DARK KNIGHT and so on. An article like the TERMINATOR SALVATION DVD/Blu-ray news is certainly nothing we haven't done before.

Also, all the contributors to SFJ are volunteers. If they want to write about horror, sci-fi, fantasy, or animation I won't reject their contributions simply because they're not writing about a Japanese topic.

EDIT: I missed MFW's post where he explained it much more succinctly than I did.

It's easy to understand the link to science ficture. My only concern is topics that are, at times, grossly overexposed on other sites and still get mention here. Other sites won't even sneeze at japanese sci-fi not to mention Godzilla, but topics like Terminator can be abundantly seen on every conceivable site in existance. It's the lack of respect that the kaiju genre gets and it seems to be fading thanks to the attention that american films get, even at SciFiJapan.
