On Monday, JR Tokai Agency Co., Ltd. (Representative: Sumio Atsuji) debuted a special display at JR Nagoya Station to celebrate the release of GODZILLA MINUS ONE (ゴジラ-1.0/ゴジラマイナスワン, Gojira Mainasu Wan). The Nagoya Express Vision digital sign, located in front of the silver clock at the Station's Shinkansen exit, has been transformed into a “Godzilla Vision” (ゴジラビジョン, Gojira Bijon) for one week only.

A sheet with artwork of Godzilla-1.0 is attached over the Express Vision display and also onto the floor in front of the signy. The huge illustration, measuring approximately 5.5 m in length and 8 m in width (approximately 18 x 26 feet), has such an impact that visitors cannot help but look at it. And playing on the left side of the Godzilla Vision is a video edited especially for this display.
In Japanese, five o'clock in the afternoon is pronounced 'Goji' (五時) so when 5:00 p.m. approaches each day an exclusive "Godzilla Time Signal" (ゴジラ時報, Gojira Jihō) will be broadcast at Godzilla Vision. This display presents Godzilla at his most terrifying, allowing viewers to feel the King of the Monsters' proximity and power even more!
