With the arrival of Soshino Hoshina and Gen Narumi at Mina Ashiro and Kafka Hibino’s location, fans are eagerly anticipating an intense showdown against the Meireki Era Mega Monster.
Although spoilers are unlikely due to the digital publication format of *Kaiju No. 8*, the official X (formerly Twitter) account has released crucial details regarding the upcoming chapter. This article provides the confirmed release information for *Kaiju No. 8* chapter 116, along with predictions for what fans can expect from the next exciting installment.
Recap of Kaiju No. 8 Chapter 115
The previous chapter, *Kaiju No. 8* chapter 115, opened with Mina receiving orders to retreat while Kafka Hibino’s vital signs were still absent. No. 9 reminded Mina that no one has survived an encounter with the Meireki Era Mega Monster, including the Defense Force. Mina, however, remained determined, reflecting on how Hoshina had always supported her by clearing her path.
Just as she remembered his strength, Hoshina appeared behind the Mega Monster and attacked it with his Strata Strike. Despite the valiant effort, the monster wasn’t defeated, prompting Mina to provide covering fire.
As the situation escalated, Hoshina moved to Phase 2 of their plan, releasing several weapons, including swords. Hoshina’s slashes were ineffective, leading him to ask Mina to focus on Kafka. At that moment, Gen Narumi entered the battle, declaring that as the backbone of the country, he didn’t need permission to fight. The chapter ended with Narumi activating his powerful Weapon No. 1.
What to Expect from Kaiju No. 8 Chapter 116
Based on the current story progression, Kaiju No. 8 chapter 116 is expected to center on the battle between Hoshina, Narumi, and the Meireki Era Mega Monster. With Narumi’s arrival, more details about the ancient Kaiju’s abilities and structure are likely to be revealed. Fans can anticipate Hoshina’s swordsmanship uncovering critical information about the monster’s core, such as its number, location, and shields.
This intense action will likely dominate the chapter, showing that while Hoshina and Narumi can hold the Mega Monster at bay, they may struggle to do much more. Meanwhile, the focus may shift back to Mina, who could attempt to reach Kafka emotionally, urging him to return to consciousness. The chapter may conclude with a sneak peek into Kafka’s psyche, where he might be communicating with the Kaiju inside him.
