After the thrilling cliffhanger of season one, I’ve been eagerly waiting for any news about Kafka Hibino and his journey with the Japanese Defense Force.

Following an incredibly enjoyable first season in 2024, it’s been announced that Naoya Matsumoto’s anime series “Kaiju No. 8” will be returning for a second season. Expected to air in 2025, the trailer for this upcoming season was unveiled on Toho Animation’s YouTube channel.

Although the trailer is silent and packed with action sequences, it’s clear that the new season will be premiering in 2025.

Kaiju No. 8, an anime series, unfolds in a Japan where colossal monsters known as kaiju wreak havoc on the land. These creatures pose a threat to humans and require intervention from the Japanese Defense Force. The narrative follows Kafka Hibino, a young man with a dream of joining this elite group to eradicate the destructive kaiju infesting his homeland. However, an unexpected twist unfolds when it’s disclosed that Kafka can transform into a kaiju after consuming one. This shocking revelation sets the stage for season two, promising an exhilarating continuation of the story.

What lies ahead for him during his service in the Japanese Defense Force remains uncertain, but we’ll find out by some point in 2025, with the exact date still unclear. If the manga continues as planned, season two might delve into “The Compatible User Arc”.
