!Tropes applying to Eiji Tsuburaya and his work
* AuthorAppeal:
** Christian FauxSymbolism is common in a number of his works, which is not surprising given his religious background.
** He had a fondness for comedic monster scenes to give his kaiju character and make audiences laugh. The infamous VictoryDance from ''Film/InvasionOfAstroMonster'' is an excellent example. Apparently, Creator/IshiroHonda and Creator/HaruoNakajima sternly objected to its inclusion, but Tsuburaya's insistence won out.
* CoolOldGuy: He was 54 when he started working on ''Franchise/{{Godzilla}}'' movies and 66 by the time ''Series/{{Ultraman}}'' began, but was deeply respected by his comrades for his tirelessness. His crew often called him "Oyaji", or "The Old Man".
* FriendToAllChildren: Eiji Tsuburaya was very fond of kids and strongly believed in keeping his work child-friendly. He abhorred FamilyUnfriendlyViolence (he once became angry at a crewman for suggesting to make Godzilla bleed) and disliked depressing and cynical stories ("Don't destroy the dreams of children", he instructed to the ''Series/UltraQ'' writers).
* PeopleInRubberSuits: He popularized this trope for Japanese special effects, although he originally wanted to do stop-motion when developing ''Film/{{Gojira}}'', but had to find another method due to the lack of time and resources available for such an undertaking.
* ThePerfectionist: Eiji was a stickler for perfection in his work. He would think nothing twice about having his crew completely rebuild a painstakingly constructed miniature that had taken months to make if a single shot when wrong.
* RuleOfFun: His philosophy towards special effects. He wanted audiences to exercise their imaginations and be filled with childlike wonder when watching his work.

Eiji Tsuburaya (円谷 英二) was an influential special effects director considered by many to be "God of {{Toku}}satsu". Born July 7, 1901 (as Eiichi Tsumuraya) and died January 11, 1970, Tsuburaya is famed in UsefulNotes/{{Japan}} for having effectively created the nation's special effects industry, as well as his involvement in the creation of two of its most iconic pop culture characters -- Franchise/{{Godzilla}} and Series/{{Ultraman}}.
During his childhood, Tsuburaya was fascinated with aviation, which was a hobby he'd have all his life. In 1919, he took up his first job as a cameraman for Nikkatsu. In 1938 he became special effects director at Creator/{{Toho}} Studios. During UsefulNotes/WorldWarII, he worked on several propaganda films, one of which, ''The War At Sea From Hawaii To Malay'', featured a recreation of the Pearl Harbor bombings so well done the American censors during occupation became frightened and thought it was real footage of Pearl Harbor, which got him accused of involvement in espionage and a brief exile from Toho.
After the war, he formed his own independent effects company until returning to Toho in 1951.

He was also the creator of another classic tokusatsu series, ''Series/{{Ultraman}}'', produced at his own studio Creator/TsuburayaProductions (established 1963). Alongside the equally acclaimed ''Series/UltraQ'' and ''Series/UltraSeven'', ''Ultraman'' would spawn the ''Franchise/UltraSeries'' whose heroes would become as popular in Japan as Godzilla himself and the most beloved of his studio's works.
Raised a Buddhist, he became a [[UsefulNotes/JapaneseChristian Catholic]] after marriage as his wife was one, which influenced some of the imagery he used in his works (seen in such works as ''Film/{{Mothra}}'' and ''Series/UltraSeven'').
