After realizing that Godzilla: Minus One is still not out on home video or streaming, I decided to look into it. In Japan, it's out on bluray on May 1st. In the west, there is no release date yet. Apparently, this is due to the licensing agreement that Toho made with Legendary. There's some sort of non-compete clause on it, and with Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire being released soon, it's resulted in a delay for Toho's film being available.

I've heard that as well, but I wonder if they may use the Oscar win as a promotion for when the new one comes out.. If not I guess we wait.

Japanese companies tend to be way slower about rolling out home video releases. They aren't scared shitless of piracy like western studios are and they tend to stick to their guns about release windows and the like and greatly prioritize their domestic market and serve that first.

Yeah, because Makoto Shinkai's Suzume (which I very much want to see), just came out on Blu Ray here this week in spite of releasing in theaters last year.
