I don’t know if he ever got his own series in the past, but Godzila has been turned into anime-form in some occasions (see my post in Godzilla Resurgence thread). But there’s an American animated series made by Sony based on the 1998 movie if you want to count that:
That series is fun btw, but only if you accept that the “Godzilla” in this one is not Godzilla, but a giant Iguanosaur that can breathe radiated green-fire and dig the ground real fast like a mole. Oh, and he’s more or less a pet of the MC in that series. All the episodes are available on Youtube in case somebody is bored enough .

Also, my experience with "original" Godzilla (I do know the big guy has had his share of reimaginigs and reboots) only reaches a couple movies, including 2000. That's part of why I asked that question. |

Strangely enough, I'm less bothered by CGI if the show is all-CGI. So if they do it pure CGI I guess I'll be okay with it. But if it's CGI with hand-drawn, It'll be a lot harder for me to stomach it. That said, if Gen Urobuchi actually has full creative control of the story we might be in for an actually scary Godzilla anime.
EDIT "Gen Urobuchi will be involved with the storyboard/draft."...uhm...okay. I'm worried now.

A Godzilla anime will be very interesting and it looks like this does not take place on earth too

Google search came up with the Tanzawa Mountains in Japan. Hmmm...maybe this is a future time when Godzilla's radiation has affected Japan, and the survivors are either trying to destroy Godzilla or find a way to return back to their homes? ...And that may tie in to similarities to Fukushima, with all the people still unable to return home due to the amount of radiation there. As well as Chernobyl, with the mutated flora and fauna...

**** That being said, regarding the visuals ... I kinda like the idea of a post apocalyptic ultra-forested sci fi setting....
