Reviews
"A gorgeous book filled with fantastic photos and information about the father of tokusatsu." -Kaijucast, "A gorgeous book filled with fantastic photos and information about the father of tokusatsu." -Kaijucast-- -, 'In Eiji Tsuburaya: Master of Monsters, San Francisco based writer August Ragone has produced a fond, generously illustrated biography of the tokusatsu (special effects) genius ' - Time Magazine, December 13, 2007, "[A] loving, well-researched tribute to the greatest of all Japanese Monster Makers!!" -Guillermo del Toro Director of Pacific Rim and Pan's Labyrinth-- -, "Eiji Tsuburaya was a very reserved man on the set. Most of the direction he gave me for the performances was, 'I trust you to do it. Do what you feel is best, I'll leave it up to you.' And that's the way he was for most of the films we worked on together after Godzilla . After the wires broke on the Rodan suit, causing me to fall several meters onto the miniature set, he chided, 'It's good that you didn't die; because I need you to finish the film.' And I replied, 'That's easy for you to say; I'm the one inside the costume.' But, these things would sometimes happen. It's been forty-three years since Tsuburaya has left us, but what a happy feeling to have a book published about him after all this time. And that it came not from Japan, but from the U.S.! I'm sure the Old Man would be as happy as I am. August did a wonderful job. Thanks to all for not forgetting him." -Haruo Nakajima original Godzilla suit actor (1954-1972) and the Man of a Thousand Monsters-- -, "When I moved to America to start filming Godzilla , this was one of the few books I brought with me. Eiji is a true inspiration, and a one of a kind innovator of special effects, the likes of which we'll probably never see again in cinema." -Gareth Edwards, director of Monsters and Godzilla (2014)., 'Anyone with a taste for reading about frantic production schedules and creative jury-rigging solutions will find much to enjoy in Ragone's text.' - Powell's Books.com, November 2007, "[A] loving, well-researched tribute to the greatest of all Japanese Monster Makers!!" -Guillermo del Toro Director of Pacific Rim and Pan's Labyrinth, 'Anyone with a taste for reading about frantic production schedules and creative jury-rigging solutions will find much to enjoy in Ragone's text.' - Powell's Books.com, November 2007-- -, 'The difference between this book and other coffee table volumes that have covered daikaiju before, though, is the staggeringly researched detail that Ragone has put into the text itself. This is not just a picture book to flip through, nod approvingly at and stick on the shelf; this is a record easily in scale with the monsters Tsuburaya created a critical and historical look at the creation and output of an industry that spanned (and has continued to span) the decades. - Tooth and Dagger, October 2007, "Eiji Tsuburaya was a very reserved man on the set.
