7818375 He directed three Heisei VS Godzilla entries.
Godzilla vs. Mothra Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla 2 Godzilla vs. Destoroyah
He also directed Godzilla 2000.
Are any of these as good as the work of Ishiro Honda, Kazuki Omori, Shusuke Keneko, Hideacki Anno, or Adam Wingard? No. Are they better than given credit for by US fans? Yes. What's confusing about Okawara's work is, as I later learned, he directs so unabashedly for women, and US G-Fans aren't used to thinking of them as an audience.
