Kaiju No. 8 chapter 110 recap

Expand Tweet

Kaiju No. 8 chapter 110 began with Kafka and Mina officially announcing their starting the subjugation of Kaiju No. 9 to their allies. They each then rushed at No. 9 from opposite sides. A flashback revealed that Kafka had two unknown techniques remaining and that their win banked on those attacks working. Mina was to provide cover while Kafka put his all into striking No. 9’s core, returning to the present as they executed this plan.

Those spectating commented on how they’d never seen this side of Mina with anyone before. However, No. 9 also seemingly realized this exceptionality, as he launched a shock wave of No. 2’s shortly thereafter. Thankfully, Kafka dodged the blow, allowing him to rush at No. 9. However, Kafka was blocked by a string of explosions, which was a brand new attack, prompting Mina to elaborate on the countless Kaiju she saw when inside No. 9.

The two told themselves to keep pushing but eventually were sent slamming into a wall by one of No. 9’s attacks. Those spectating grew worried that this wasn’t enough, but Kafka also acknowledged this. Kafka then revealed he had been working on a secret move with Narumi, which even Hoshina didn’t know about. The issue ended with Kafka giving himself up to the Kaiju within, as he clarified he had one minute of control to win this fight.

What to expect from Kaiju No. 8 chapter 111 (speculative)

With Kafka set to enter his berserk mode yet again in Kaiju No. 8 chapter 111, fans are truly nervous about what’s to come despite Kafka’s claims of having a minute of full control. Nevertheless, the transformation seems necessary considering the situation and could be their only shot at victory.

Chapter 111 will likely open up with a flashback to Kafka’s training sessions with Narumi, likely introducing a potential caveat for losing control when fighting an actual Kaiju. It’s unclear how the issue will end, but confirmation that Kafka couldn't control himself after all would be far from shocking, albeit a harrowing sign of what’s to come.
