The next chapter of kaiju warfare begins—don’t miss it.
After making waves with its first season, Kaiju No. 8 is back and bigger than ever—thanks to the arrival of the 1st Division and Kafka’s awakening.
As kaiju threats grow stronger and human conflict deepens,
Season 2 may even question the very meaning of justice.
This summer, don’t take your eyes off "Kaiju No. 8"!
By the way, I'm totally a fan of Soushirou Hoshina.
