Kaiju No. 8 followers, it is time to have fun, as that sequel sequence has been confirmed as a second season.
Final month, it was confirmed that Kaiju No. 8 can be getting a sequel of some type, however it wasn’t outright said to be one other season. In any case, there are many sequence that get film variations of specific manga arcs nowadays (you possibly can thank Demon Slayer for that one). However, it was confirmed yesterday that the fairly good Kaiju No. 8 will likely be getting a season 2, and that that second season will likely be arriving a while in 2025. Yesterday was an ideal day to announce it too, as in Japanese the sequence is called Kaijū Hachigō – the phrase “hachi” being the Japanese for the quantity eight, i.e. the eighth month of the 12 months, August, and “go” (minus the lengthy ō) means 5, with the date being August 5.
A enjoyable trailer was launched with the 2025 announcement, which you’ll be able to see above, displaying totally different clips from the anime overlaid with a filter as if these are all governmental recordings of the totally different kaiju that Kafka has to face off towards. Alongside the season 2 announcement, it was additionally revealed {that a} movie compilation of the primary season is on the best way too, although whether or not that’s launched outdoors of Japan is not clear simply but. On prime of that, a particular episode titled “Hoshina’s Day Off” is within the works, which will likely be screened alongside the compilation movie, so this is hoping that makes it over right here by some means.
If you happen to’re questioning the place you’ll watch season 2, Crunchyroll has already introduced that it will likely be streaming the sequel sequence every time it airs subsequent 12 months. Outdoors of that, particulars are slim in regards to the new season, however I am positive manga readers can have sufficient of an thought of what to anticipate.
