Gamera: Guardian of the Universe (ガメラ 大怪獣空中決戦 Gamera: Daikaijū Kūchū Kessen) is the 9th entry in the Daiei produced Gamera film series and the first in Heisei period trilogy, followed by Gamera 2: Attack of Legion (1996) and Gamera 3: The Revenge of Iris (1999). Unlike Shōwa period films, that were more children-oriented, the Heisei period trilogy has dark and heroic tone.
