The last chapter of Kaiju No. 8 saw Kafka Hibino revive, promising Mina Ashiro that he would return. Kafka then resumed his fight, landing a powerful strike on Meireki as seen in the previous chapter. After this clash, Gen Narumi excitedly urged Kafka to show him his strength.

Meireki then launched a brutal glyph attack against Kafka, though he easily withstood the assault and healed himself effortlessly. As he powered up, a flashback revealed Kafka reconciling with his past self. The chapter finally ended with Kafka shedding his kaiju skin, unveiling a daunting new form.

Hoshina, Narumi, and Mina will likely discuss their next steps, ultimately deciding to leave the fight to Kafka while ensuring their own safety. The chapter may also conclude with Kafka beginning to unleash his true power, setting up for a decisive blow in the following issue.
