In July 2020, Shueisha’s Shonen Jump+ started serializing the manga Kaiju No. 8 by Naoya Matsumoto, which has since been compiled into 7 volumes. With the fifth book scheduled for release on January 23 2022, Viz Media has an English licensing agreement for it in North America. So far, four volumes have been released. Manga Plus, where readers can read the series for free, preserved the title of the series, which was originally licensed as Monster #8 in English. Later, the name was changed back to Kaiju No. 8.
The plot of Kaiju No. 8 is described as follows:
In a world threatened by dangerous creatures called Kaiju, our hero Kafka Hibino dreams of joining the Japan Defense Force to defeat them. He makes a promise to his childhood friend, Mina Ashiro, vowing to fight Kaiju together. But life takes them on different paths, and Kafka ends up working for a cleaning company dealing with Kaiju aftermaths, while Mina becomes a Captain in the Defense Force.
Enter Reno Ichikawa, who’s super determined to join the Defense Force. His enthusiasm reignites Kafka’s ambition, and he yearns to stand alongside Mina once again. Little does Kafka know that a new Kaiju threat is just around the corner, making things even more intense!
