Kaiju No. 8 Chapter 115 recap

Kaiju No. 8 Chapter 115 opens as Mina Ashiro faces the Meireki Era Mega Monster's deadly attack. Director General Keiji Itami orders Mina to retreat, while it's confirmed that Kafka Hibino shows no vital signs.

From within the monster’s consciousness, No. 9 taunts Mina, claiming that no one has ever escaped its power, but he is startled by Mina's calm, resolute expression. She thinks about how Soshiro Hoshina has always supported her, helping her overcome obstacles.

As Mina speaks, Hoshina arrives and uses his Sixth Form Strate Strike to cut through the Mega Monster, temporarily halting its advance in Kaiju No. 8 Chapter 115. Despite the apparent victory, the creature regenerates, forcing Hoshina to evade another attack with Mina providing covering fire.

Hoshina orders the next phase of the operation, calling for heavy weaponry. He prepares for another assault but is shocked as the monster phases through his attack and readies a lethal counterstrike. Kaiju No. 8 Chapter 115 ends as Gen Narumi arrives just in time, activating the powers of No. 1.
