Nestled within Japan's Awaji Island Park, the anime theme park "Nijigen no Mori" (ニジゲンノモリ) has been a magnet for anime fans since its 2017 debut, boasting blockbuster attractions inspired by "Naruto," "Crayon Shin-chan," and "Demon Slayer."
Get ready, hunters and kaiju enthusiasts! Today (September 4), Nijigen no Mori officially announced a massive crossover event between its "Godzilla Interception Operation" and "Monster Hunter: The Field in Nijigen no Mori" attractions! This epic collaboration kicks off on September 13, 2025, and runs until November 3, giving fans just over a month to dive into the action. You absolutely won't want to miss it!
This isn't just any crossover; it's a full-blown linked event bringing together the already-awesome "Godzilla Interception Operation" and "Monster Hunter: The Field" areas within Nijigen no Mori. Visitors can look forward to unique thrills on both sides, with limited-time missions dropping in each zone during the event period:
"Godzilla Interception Operation" Emergency Directive: Top Secret Mission No.113
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to venture deep inside Godzilla's maw for a top-secret investigation! Successfully complete the task at "Godzilla Interception Operation" and snag an exclusive collaboration badge, featuring Godzilla reimagined in epic "Monster Hunter" style.
"Monster Hunter: The Field" Emergency Quest: Special Investigation: The Roar of the Monster King's Slumbering Island
Hunters entering the fray will be tasked with taking down none other than Rathalos! Conquer this challenge at "Monster Hunter: The Field" and earn a limited-edition A5 clear file, emblazoned with exclusive artwork from this epic crossover.
Just a heads-up: you'll need separate tickets for each mission, so make sure to map out your strategy if you're planning to tackle both!
But wait, there's more than just mission rewards! The official crew has cooked up a fresh batch of collaboration merch, including:
awesome Godzilla-shaped hats, adorable hairbands, collectible glass cups, detailed models and figures, tasty snacks, and, naturally, exclusive limited-edition items you can only grab at Nijigen no Mori.
