Kafka Hibino faces intense personal struggles battling both enemies and his own monstrous side. Kafka Hibino is spared but designated as a weapon by Jakdf due to his uncontrollable powers. Kafka must navigate complex relationships with the Shinomiyas and make sure he keeps earning their support.
The hit shonen anime series Kaiju No. 8 has completed its first season, and there is plenty for anime fans to digest. On the face of it, Kaiju No. 8 is yet another "monster hunter" anime in the same vein as Demon Slayer and Chainsaw Man, focusing on professional hunters taking down deadly critters to protect society. However, as the first season's finale showed, that's just the context for the real conflicts and character arcs in Kaiju No. 8.
Over the course of its first season, this anime established Kafka Hibino as a half-other hero with a kaiju side, all while fighting other intelligent monsters like Kaiju No.

Kaiju No. 8 episode #11 releases on Saturday, June 22. Kaiju No. 8's narrative takes an unexpected turn with Kafka revealing himself as Kaiju No. 8. The writing for episode #10 is some of the anime's best and is a promising sign for future developments.
Kaiju No. 8 truly started to show how fast-paced it would be with episode #10, and episode #11 will keep that going in the biggest way possible. Episode #11 will completely change how anyone would have expected the anime to go, and with Kaiju No. 8 likely coming to a close soon, theres no way of knowing how things will end.

Hoshina refused to give up the fight, of course, which led to an episode of Kaiju No. 8 that featured some...
