In the latest Kaiju No. 8 chapter, the action was intense right from the start. Mina Ashiro fired her powerful Keraunos weapon at the terrifying Meireki Era Mega Monster—but the kaiju countered with a massive energy beam that neutralized her attack. Undeterred, Mina kept firing, but the monster kept deflecting each shot, pushing her weapon dangerously close to overheating.
Just when things looked bleak, Kikoru Shinomiya stepped in despite being at her physical limit. Drawing strength from her memories of her late mother, she cranked her combat power up to a staggering 93%. With a final, desperate axe strike, Kikoru managed to interrupt Meireki’s rampage and created a brief opening. Mina seized the moment and finally landed a direct hit.
But that wasn’t enough. As Kikoru collapsed from exhaustion, she called out to Kafka Hibino—aka Kaiju No. 8—to finish the fight. Kafka then charged headfirst toward the monster’s exposed core, setting the stage for a dramatic climax.
Looking ahead, Kaiju No. 8 Chapter 127 might go one of two ways:
- Best case scenario: Kafka smashes through the monster’s shield and hits its core, maybe triggering a psychic link between him and Meireki. If that happens, we could get some big reveals—like the kaiju’s origin, its connection to past mega-monsters, or secrets tied to Kafka’s own powers.
- More likely scenario: Kafka is stopped just before he can land the final blow. Why? Because Reno Ichikawa still hasn’t entered the fray. His arrival might coincide with Meireki making a last-minute escape, possibly with help from backup kaiju. This would keep the current story arc going and raise the stakes for future battles.
Kaiju No. 8 Chapter 127 will be officially released on Friday, June 6, 2025, at 12:00 am JST. That means most international readers will get it during the day on Thursday, June 5, depending on their time zones.
