Kaiju No.8 Summary
The soldiers return to the base and continue with their daily life. Meanwhile, the sweepers who work for the Professional Kaijuu Cleaner Corporation were tasked with disposing of Kaijus’ remains. One of the workers, who are 32 years old and goes by the Kafa Hibino, was also disposing of the remains of Kaijus. But Kafka has other dreams that disposing of the remains. He realizes that he has dreamed of becoming a member of the Defense Corps since childhood. Kafka believes that once he becomes a warrior, he will be the Kaiju. But his dream was shattered when he entered the entrance exam to become a member of the Defense Corps.
Kafka didn’t give up, but he kept on failing since it was not an easy task to become a warrior, and it needed lots of training that he could imagine. The higher-ups could accept Kafka after seeing that he was too weak to be a warrior that could fight with a mighty Kaiju. Kafka realizes that he was wasting his time and decided to give up on becoming a warrior even though it was his childhood dream. He thought he would make a good living and earn more by killing the world’s threat. However, Kafka resigned from his work and received a good amount.
One day, an ambitious recruit name Leno Ichikawa who is an 18-year-old, joins Kafka’s cleaning team and motivates Kafka to pursue his dream. Kafka’s desire to join the military awakens within him, and he decides to do whatever it takes to achieve his goal. Later mysterious incidents happen, and Kafka interacts with the junior sweeper, but he fights with a parasite-type kaiju that enters inside his mouth. He is surprised when he transforms into Kaiju, which poses tremendous powers but can also turn into a human form. With his news powers, he decided to protect the world and fight against the Kaijus.
