While he is known primarily as a comedian and TV host in his native Japan, he is better known abroad for his work as a filmmaker and actor as well as TV host. Kitano rose to prominence in the 1970s as one half of the comedy duo Two Beat, before going solo and becoming one of the three biggest comedians in the country. After several small acting roles, he made his directorial debut with 1989's Violent Cop and garnered international acclaim for Sonatine (1993). He was not widely accepted as an accomplished director in Japan until Hana-bi won the Golden Lion in 1997. In October 2017, Kitano completed his Outrage crime trilogy with the release of Outrage Coda. He is also known internationally for hosting the game show Takeshi's Castle (1986–1990) and starring in the film Battle Royale (2000).

Takes place shortly after: "Monster Invasion: Total War". On a popular Japanese coast, the most powerful of the Titans has just returned after centuries, destroying a Japanese naval base : Godzilla ! Japan approves the "Kaiju Killer" protocol, and the Prime Minister personally orders the country's best monster hunter to handle the situation : the immortal Golden Samurai ! He can count on the (not-so-unsolicited) help of other monster hunters who have come from around the world, notably Space Knight, who intends to remind everyone who the supposed "greatest protector of Earth" is, as well as the greatest sorcerer fighting for what is right : Professor Light ! However, in their investigation, our heroes will realize that Godzilla hasn't declared war on humanity but has tried to prevent a global conspiracy to awaken an equally dangerous but truly malevolent monster. Once again, humanity will realize that its salvation may come from what they dare to call a "monster."
