Talk:Continuity/@comment-8683878-20190128050704

Sorry to possibly revive an older argument: what is the basis that "All Monsters Attack" takes place in the "real world" and not in continuity? I know that all the monster action in this film is imagined: Ichiro never met Minilla, there is no Gabara kaiju, etc.

However, is Ichiro imagining himself in a fictional world (where Godzilla is a character from the movies) or is he imagining himself traveling to the "real-world Monster Island?"

I always assumed it was the latter; that Ichiro lives in a world where Godzilla really exists, and he just imagines himself having adventures. Is there any content in the film, or word from Toho, that suggests otherwise?
