Seven years ago, Japan endured the Great East Japan Earthquake and Tsunami on March 11, 20 suffering mass casualties and destruction. It is the day I will never forget. Today, Japan is still grappling with the aftermath and continues to face the existential threat that lies within the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Plant that melted down hours after the tsunami. Five years later, with the resurgence of Godzilla and the release of Shin Godzilla I got the Godzilla that I needed, that is, a metaphor and cathartic experience that helps me grapple with that day.
