Chapter 91 recap

Kaiju No. 8 chapter 91 began with a flashback to Soshiro’s childhood, where he lost a sparring match against his brother. The issue then returned to the present, where Hoshina was absolutely clobbered by Kaiju No. 12. Soshiro took up his sword again, but Kaiju No. 12 instantly attacked him, seemingly cutting off Soshiro’s arm in the process.

This set in motion a near-death experience for Soshiro, who remembered his past as he imagined himself drowning and succumbing to death. Suddenly, Soshiro jolted back to life, revealing that it was actually No. 10’s tail that was cut off, not his arm. No. 10 then tried convincing Soshiro to keep fighting, but he instead said there was no point since they don’t have the skills needed to deal with their enemy.

No. 10 then told Soshiro that this is what he wanted and that he surely doesn’t want to give up when his dreams are in sight. Soshiro was inspired by this, with No. 10 reminding him that they should do what they want and have a little fun as the issue ended.


What to expect (speculative)

Kaiju No. 8 chapter 92 will undoubtedly open with a continued focus on Soshiro and No. 10’s fight against No. 12. While the fight has somewhat dragged recently, the upcoming issue will likely begin the ascent to the fight’s climax, with the fight ending shortly thereafter.

That being said, Kaiju No. 8 chapter 92 likely won’t prove Soshiro and No. 10’s victory to be an easy one. The two will more likely than not be pushed to their absolute limits, potentially even losing a limb or life in the process, as foreshadowed in the previous release.
