Chapter 82 recap
Kaiju No. 8 chapter 82 began with Rin Shinonome sharing his backstory, elaborating heavily on his relationship with First Division Captain Gen Narumi. A quick recap of the current situation was given before this, with custom-built Kaiju going after specific targets they have an advantage over.
The scene then shifted back to Shinonome, who was in absolute awe of how hopeless humanity’s current fight seems. Platoon Leader Tachibana was about to be eaten by Kaiju No. 13, being heavily injured to the point of being unable to defend himself. Shinonome was ordered to back up Tachibana, who remembered Narumi’s words to him as this order came in.
Shinonome got the attention of the Kaiju, but was hit and sent flying as a result. She then remembers her early days in the defense force, wanting nothing but to get Narumi’s acknowledgment. Shinonome is seen training herself tirelessly until being acknowledged by Narumi and promoted to platoon leader.
The scene then returned to the present, where Shinonome steeled herself and continued to get No. 13’s attention. She is determined to sacrifice herself to get intel and buy time for Narumi, launching an all-out assault. Unfortunately, Shinonome is eventually caught and about to be killed by No. 13, when Kafka Hibino suddenly appears and makes the save as the issue ends.
What to expect (speculative)
With the reappearance of Kafka Hibino to the front lines, Kaiju No. 8 chapter 83 is likely to start kicking the war against the identified Kaiju into overdrive. Similarly, fans can expect Leno Ichikawa to appear in upcoming issues as well, with his presence likely being another bolstering factor for humanity’s chances.
Kaiju No. 8 chapter 83, however, will likely focus primarily on Kafka’s fight versus Kaiju No. 13. It’s unclear exactly how long the fight will last, with No. 13 possibly being Kafka’s ideal mismatch. In any case, a fight between the two of some yet-known length is set to begin in the coming issues of the series.
