What wonderful news to come home to! 
I'm a massive Godzilla fan, own all his films, especially loved the last Toho one, Shin Godzilla.
I can't wait to see where they go with this one; part of the beauty of Godzilla is he is so adaptable as a character, evolving with the times and embodying the cultural context of different eras, from the 1950s to the present. You never know what form he will take next, and that's what makes it so exciting.

I guess with Anno working on Shin Kamen Rider this probably won’t be Shin Godzilla 2, at least not helmed by him. Curious to see what it is though!
I heard about this one's preproduction like a year ago, surprised it took them so long to announce it. Even after filming started Toho refused to call this a Godzilla movie lol. Takashi Yamazaki's a big Showa nostalgia nut/borderline Imperial apologist so I wonder how this will turn out. Not expecting Shin Godzilla-tier kino but anything will be better than Legendary's post-Edwards flicks. Supposedly Yamazaki managed to get Sakura Ando for a lead role so I hope they don't waste her like Shin Ultraman wastes Nishijima.
Anno once mentioned that Toho probably wouldn't want to work with him on Godzilla again. His idea for a sequel involved giving full director duties to Shinji Higuchi for a 70's esque monster mash up, so I personally don't mind that never getting picked up. Shin Kamen RIder looks cool anyways.
