In GMK, Isayama knew Godzilla was going to return soon for a while. He was already working to awaken the Guardian Monsters before Godzilla even made landfall. In 1954, he probably didn't know about Godzilla until he made lanfall in Tokyo. And a few days later, Godzilla was declared dead. At least by the events of GMK, Isayama already had prepared for Godzilla's return and the Guardian Monsters were in the process of being awakened.
