Kafka Hibino and Mina Ashiro were childhood friends. Together, they vowed to eradicate the Kaiju and join the Defence Force. Mina was talented. She joined the Defence force and rose to the position of captain of the third division and was one of the most popular humans in the country. On the other hand, Kafka had no talent for it and couldn’t join the defense force, no matter how hard he tried.
Finally, he ends up with Kaiju’s clean-up duty; his only job is cleaning up the mess after the battle with Kaijus is over. Even though it was tough for him to give up on his dream, he finally accepted his fate. However, fate had something else in store for him as he soon got the ability to transform into a Kaiju himself, Kaiju no. 8. This was a new chance for him. Will he be able to prove his loyalty to humanity in front of the Defence force and fight with them to eliminate the Kaiju?
The last chapter of the series ended with Gen Nurumi using his brilliant new ace in the hole to highly overwhelm Kaiju 11 and slice him up in multiple pieces. He had been saving this to surprise his former mentor and finally made him acknowledge his talent and abilities.
Fans are super excited about the next chapter of the series, and as you are patiently waiting for it to release, we are here to provide you with the details regarding the release date and time of the episode, as well as the place where you can read the next chapter as soon as it releases. We will also provide you with any spoilers we may come across to hype you up further, but first, let’s have a quick recap of the series to make sure no one is missing anything important.
Monster #8 Chapter 87: Recap
Kaiju 11 is surprised as Gen manages to hit him once again. The eyes all over Gen’s body changed color, a phenomenon not present in Isao Shinomiya’s memory. Gen was able to predict all his moves and counter them easily. It was as if he could see the future. Kaiju 11 couldn’t comprehend what was happening. He had underestimated his opponent.
Isao Shinomiya was Gen’s former mentor and the one he was never able to surpass. No matter how hard he tried, he never stood a chance against him. ‘I don’t need incompetent officers in the first division,’ were Isao’s words which Gen has never been able to forget. He worked hard and produced results and was even chosen to be weapon number 1’s compatible user, but Isao was never impressed. Isao grew older and retired. Eventually, he was gone. Gen didn’t accept this. He couldn’t allow Isao to quit when he was ahead.
According to Isao’s memories, no.1’s abilities are supposed to be pseudo foresight, reading the electrical signals to predict his opponent’s moves. But Gen had now improved. He could now perceive the movements of electrons, fluctuations in temperatures, and terrain to quite literally ‘see’ the future. This was an ability he had developed on his own and didn’t appear when No. 1 was still a Kaiju.
