Characters[edit]
Main[edit]
- Kafka Hibino (日比野 カフカ, Hibino Kafuka) / Kaiju No. 8 (怪獣8号, Kaijū 8-gō)
- Voiced by: Masaya Fukunishi,[3] Megumi Han (young)[4] (Japanese); Nazeeh Tarsha[5] (English)
- A 32-year-old man with dreams of joining the Defense Force to fight alongside his childhood friend Mina Ashiro. He gives up on his dream after failed, past attempts to join the Defense Force and starts working in a kaiju disposal company as a cleaner. He gains the ability to turn into a kaiju after a small, parasitic creature (voiced by TARAKO)[4] enters his body through his mouth. After escaping from the Defense Force he is subsequently dubbed "Kaiju No. 8." In his kaiju form, Kafka possesses superhuman strength, speed, durability, regeneration and the ability to detect other kaiju. He has a fortitude level of 9.8, making him the most powerful kaiju identified by the Defense Force. Due to the low unleashed combat power of his suit he utilizes his knowledge of kaiju anatomy, from his work in the disposal industry, to help his squad mates defeat kaiju. Kafka's kaiju design was inspired by depictions of oni while the design's blue glow was inspired by the film Tron (1982).[6]
- Reno Ichikawa (市川 レノ, Ichikawa Reno)
- Voiced by: Wataru Kato[3] (Japanese); Adam McArthur[5] (English)
- An 18-year-old man who starts working in the same company as Kafka with plans to join the Defense Force. He becomes friends with Kafka and helps him hide the secret of his kaiju form. Reno is a considered to be a promising recruit and quickly becomes one of the Defense Force's strongest assets. He is compatible with the Numbers 6 weapon made from the remains of Kaiju No. 6 that has a fortitude level of 9.6 and that devastated the Defense Force prior to the events of the series. The Numbers 6 weapon takes the form of a suit of armor that increases Reno's strength and speed and gives him the ability of cryokinesis.
- Kikoru Shinomiya (四ノ宮 キコル, Shinomiya Kikoru)
- Voiced by: Fairouz Ai[7] (Japanese); Abigail Blythe[5] (English)
- A 16-year-old girl who joins the Third division together with Kafka and Reno. A kaiju-slaying prodigy, Kikoru is one of the greatest talents in the Defense Force and has the highest recorded unleashed combat power as a recruit. Her father, Isao, is the Director General of the Defense force while her mother, Hikari, was a captain who died in the line of the duty while fighting off a kaiju invasion led by Kaiju No. 6 prior to the events of the series. She uses a giant axe as her personal weapon and inherits her mother's Numbers 4 suit which gives her the ability of flight.

Isao begins teaching Kikoru how to fight against kaiju after the death of his wife, Hikari.

Production[edit]
Naoya Matsumoto began his career in 2006 with Neko Romancer, a series that was published in Jump Giga (then known as Akamaru Jump).[18] He authored a series titled Nekowappa! that debuted in Shueisha's Weekly Shōnen Jump in 2009. The series was a continuation of a one-shot that Matsumoto wrote for the JG1 One-Shot festival.[19] He published another one-shot titled Shikai Enbu in the 2012 spring edition of Jump Giga (then known as Jump Next)[20] before starting his second serialization with Pochi Kuro that debuted on Shueisha's Shōnen Jump+ application and website in 2014.[21]
Matsumoto stated that Kaiju No. 8 was influenced by tokusatsu media such as the Ultraman series, specifically Ultraseven (1967), Shin Godzilla (2016)[22] and Pacific Rim (2013).[18] He aimed to create a story that follows a protagonist who has to achieve their goal while hiding their identity from a hostile organization they are also a part of, seeing it as an entertaining concept.[22] Matsumoto described Kaiju No. 8 as "a challenging work" that allowed him to move away from his usual stories.[23] According to the deputy editor-in-chief of Shōnen Jump+, Seijiro Nakaji, Kaiju No. 8 was an unexpected development from Matsumoto's usual fantasy stories. Nakaji said that Matsumoto, as a tokusatsu fan, was drawn to the archetypal protagonists of the genre "who gain extraordinary abilities, and become a hero, but also bear the weight of inner struggle as a consequence."[6] Nakaji said that they planned to progress the story in two ways: "[o]ne where Kafka leads a normal life while hiding his true identity, and the other where he pursues his dream even after becoming a monster" with Matsumoto opting for the latter choice early on.[6] Matsumoto aims to create page layouts that are easy to follow, especially on smartphones, due to the manga being released digitally. He draws inspiration from mythological creatures, animals and plants when designing kaiju.[6]
Matsumoto works with three assistants for the series: Osamu Koiwai who is responsible for background art, Jiro Sakura who does "finishing work" and Mantohihi Binta who is credited for weapon design.[24] For background art, Matsumoto prepares a storyboard providing compositions of the panels of a chapter that are sent to Koiwai. They discuss how to approach the scene after which Koiwai prepares a draft for Matsumoto's approval. Once the draft is approved Koiwai can proceed with producing the final version of the backgrounds. It takes Koiwai 3–4 days to complete the backgrounds of a chapter. Koiwai shares the process of creating backgrounds on YouTube.[25]
