Kaiju No. 8, Vol. 6

Japan has the highest rate of kaiju emergence in the world, and monster attacks are a fact of life. The Japan Defense Force exists to destroy them. Kafka Hibino works as a cleaner who clears away kaiju corpses, and joining the Force has been his dream since childhood.

When a second chance at that dream arrives, Kafka is transformed into a kaiju himself. The question driving the series is how a man who has become the enemy can fight it.

In this sixth volume, Kafka comes face to face with Kaiju No. 9 but cannot transform. Kikoru steps in and fights the creature head-on while he is unable to act.

Elsewhere, Captain Narumi has met another Kaiju No. 9, and it evolves in the middle of the fight. The pressure on the Force grows, and Director General Shinomiya has no option left except to take action himself. This is a volume of battles in a monster-fighting manga series, best read after the earlier volumes.
