Kaiju No. 8 Season 2 Episode 3 – “The Strongest Division”

In this episode, Kaiju No. 9 makes its third appearance, dividing into two and overpowering the Defense Force. If you’re eager to watch it now that it has been released in Japan, you can stream it on Crunchyroll with options for both English and Japanese audio. Despite a shorter run than the first season, the anticipation among fans remains high.

In addition to the “Hoshina’s Day Off” special episode from Kaiju No. 8 and the movie titled Kaiju No. 8: Mission Recon, both can now be streamed on Crunchyroll. These releases occurred between the first two seasons of the anime. As we progress, Kafka and his companions will face even greater challenges, which may require him to exert more power while maintaining control. However, it’s also evident that the First Division is demonstrating their full potential.

The anime titled “Kaiju No. 8” is essentially about Kafka Hibino, a 32-year-old individual with a dream to join The Defense Force and honor a childhood pledge made to Mina Ashiro. He develops a friendship with a new colleague named Reno Ichikawa while clearing Kaiju debris, and this friendship motivates him to pass the entrance exam and team up with Mina for the purpose of defending humanity.

One day, Kafka encounters a small Kaiju that burrows itself within him, granting him extraordinary strength and abilities suitable for battling these creatures. His objective then becomes earning the trust of his fellow humans, defeating progressively powerful Kaiju, and ensuring the safety of the world.
