• Mothra vs. Godzilla (1964): Kurosawa plays a journalist. In a film filled with giant monsters and fairies, his role as a grounded, skeptical newsman provides the human anchor. His scenes arguing with a cynical editor about the existence of Mothra are masterclasses in exposition.
• Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster (1964): He portrays a detective. This film is famous for its absurd plot (princesses from Venus, alien monsters), but Kurosawa plays it completely straight. His deadpan reactions to the lunacy around him are why the film works tonally.
• Invasion of Astro-Monster (1965): Here, he shifts to a scientist. Nachi Kurosawa had a unique ability to make technobabble sound like genuine human concern. His portrayal of a man trying to reason with alien invaders (Xiliens) is a highlight of the film.
