About Kaiju No. 8
Kaiju No. 8 takes place in an alternate version of reality where Kaiju, or giant monsters, run rampant throughout the world. Kafka Hibino, a thirty-two-year-old former kaiju cleanup worker, becomes one of the most powerful humanoid kaiju after a smaller kaiju enters his body. Soon after becoming “Kaiju No. 8,” he joins a task force in Japan that hunts kaiju known as the Third Division. It’s a great blend of comedy and action, with a great sense of humanity in the story as well. Not just Kafka trying to juggle the hardest secret ever, but other characters trying to prove they mean something in this world.

The manga can be found on Shonen Jump/Viz Media. The anime is streaming on Crunchyroll.
