[R. · Rating 5 out of 5]

این چقدر دیر به دیر میاد باو
تا چپتر 121 خوندم
بنظر این مانگای طولانی حساب نمیاد
احتمالا همین آرک آخرش باشه
ببینیم چی میشه
***
بعد نوشت:
جلد 15 تا چپتر 119 هست
پس قطعا ادامه اش در جلد 16 میاد
تا چپتر 128 مطالعه شد
داستان دیگه تمامه
چپتر آخر، 129، هم آخر تیر میاد تا این داستان هم تمام بشه..
***
بعد نوشت:
جلد 16 تایید شده که تا آخر چپتر 129 هست ولی هنوز توی گودریدز اد نشده
داستان به این خوبی با این پتانسیل آخرش هیچی
من مانگارو خوندم نفهمیدم این چرا هیولا شد اصلا دلیل هیولا شدنش چی بود همش منتظر این بودم به این پی ببرم، اینجا منطق داستان درنیومد
تازه آخرشم همچنان در کنار مینا قرار نگرفت
واقعا مسخره و خوشم نیومد
اینم تموم شد
جلد 16 اد بشه بیام یه یک ستاره قشنگ بده به اندینگش
اه
خیلی خوب بود ولی..

Más capítulos como el 116, Narumi y Hoshina son lo mejor de este manga 😩🤌

waiiiiit im so sad im caught up already. this was so fucking awesome

[Amy · Rating 4 out of 5]

I had so many mixed emotions in this volume. Joy at the finale, shock to the twist and second half of the battle with No. 9, excitement when Hoshina turned up, and amusement when Narumi was called in to help. Narumi and Hoshina's competive, childish banter will always be welcome, I love seeing it so much, even during the heavy times. I also loved how No.10 was like 'I want to fight Narumi' and Hoshina was like 'nope, let's avoid him'- their fight really would be extraordinary if it ever happened. I swear, Hoshina and Narumi better be okay after all this... Yay for Kafka coming back!!

Now that Kafka understands his kaiju, he becomes a complete and total badass. I really enjoyed this volume 💖

[Munsaka · Rating 5 out of 5]

He lost his humanity in order to save humanity 😢 💔

[Youssra (semi ia) · Rating 5 out of 5]

The way Narumi and Hoshina hate each other and bicker gives me life I LOVE THEM SM!!! one more volume to go😭😭😭

[Mac Dubista Keso The Bibliobibuli v(=∩_∩=) · Rating 5 out of 5]

4.5/5 🌟

I finally finished the Kaiju No. 8 manga... and wow. 😭
I only picked it up because the anime left me hanging—but I’m so glad I did. From beginning to end, it never bored me for even a second. The plot was gripping, the story well-paced, and every single character had their own charm. Honestly, I loved them all!

Though I was slightly disappointed that some of the other kaiju didn’t get much spotlight (No. 9 totally hogged the stage 😅), that’s just me wanting more. The overall story? Absolutely solid.

One of the most powerful messages here is how friendship can be a weapon too. The series beautifully shows that there’s nothing wrong with asking for help, learning to trust others, and staying strong even when everything feels impossible. That really hit me.

And now that it’s over? I’m going to miss this cast so much. That bittersweet feeling of “I’m satisfied… but what if there’s more?” You know what I mean?

If you’re thinking of reading it—DO IT. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. 💥

[Izzy⁷♡•°]

THIS VOLUME, we got Hoshina and Narumi fighting together I have literally never been sad in my life however, if anything happens to them I'm killing everyone in the room and then myself.

We finally got a lot more world building to the source of no8's power and that was really interesting, and also how no.9 came to be, he is such a weirdo.

I'm still worried about how we are going to deal with Kafka trading his heart for power

One volume left however, I need to go to bed because of uni so I will have to leave it for tomorrow 🙃

[Jo · Rating 1 out of 5]

this manga is gradually becoming quite hard to read. the only character i feel any sort of interest towards is Narumi, a far side character. Even then, I suppose my interest towards him stems mainly from the fact that he is quite strong and funny. Also, cool to look at. Might drop the manga altogether after this, ngl

[Cookie · Rating 5 out of 5]

Honestly I read the whole series but it was online so I don't know specifically what I would rate each volume, but overall, it's a 5 stars.
This Manga series made me cry multiple times, the ending was amazing, honestly the whole thing was amazing. I love all the characters.
I genuinely could not put this down.

[Les Lectures de Loow (Laura) · Rating 5 out of 5]

L'avant dernier tome de ce manga. Je trouvais que ça s'essoufflait un peu depuis quelques tomes (même si j'adorais quand même) mais celui-ci redonne un coup de boost. C'est juste fou, mais c'est dommage que ce soit aussi proche de la fin.
Maintenant j'attends début 2026 avec impatience !

[ferdi 🍉 · Rating 5 out of 5]

finally!! the backstory on kafka's kaiju!!

this series just continues to be fucking peak i love it

[mikaela (spinebreaker) · Rating 5 out of 5]

idk if this is the final physical volume or not but the series is complete

I laughed
I cried
I felt victory
I felt loss

top 3 manga of all time for me personally and I can't wait to reread it all in one

[Sophia Paul · Rating 5 out of 5]

its so cool seeing how all of them are working together to try and get this down because i makes sense for kafka to be the one to take it down but like at this point SOMEONE JUST NEEDS TO PULL THAT TRIGGER. but i love my little kaiju fighters <3

[⋆ ࣪˖ ִֶָ sel ་༘࿐ · Rating 5 out of 5]

Don’t let Narumi and Hoshina’s questionable levels of bromance distract you from the fact that Volume 15 carries the crushing weight of 400 years of humanity’s resentment against the Kaiju.

[Erika Sarutobi · Rating 5 out of 5]

finally some answers

[Timothy Pitkin · Rating 3 out of 5]

I am not happy that we get a surprise 2nd form from #9 but we do finally start getting some really good world building as we kind of learn how long humans have been fighting monsters as we see samurai fighting Kaiju and an origin for #8 and it is pretty cool as we learn why he has been able to control his monster form. We also learn where #9 comes from but I am still hoping we an origin for the Kaijus like where they all come from. But I hope we do get to wrap this up as if this fight continues it will start to feel dragged out.

[Makinu Nisshoku · Rating 4 out of 5]

Au moment où j'ai lu ce tome, j'ai en même temps vu passer l'information comme quoi le manga s'achevait au Japon, donc sûrement au prochain tome, et vu la tournure des évènements ça ne m'étonne pas, mais c'est une belle nouvelle je trouve.

Plutôt que de rempiler avec un méchant encore plus méchant et que ça n'en finisse pas, cette histoire aura un début et une fin (pour laquelle j'ai une hypothèse mais que j'espère fausse... on le saura bientôt).

[Santiago Buitrago · Rating 4 out of 5]

Desde más o menos la mitad se sabía que el final de la obra se acercaba con un arco final que se dilató bastante, con capítulos donde no pasaba mucho para luego tener otros que pasaba de todo.

Kaiju N8 es una obra corta que va al grano: acción y comedia matando kaijus. Punto. No se debe esperar más.

Si bien me hubiese gustado que se tomase un poco más en serio, siempre tiene que existir un lugar para obras más ligeras para leer de vez en cuando.

[Brittany · Rating 5 out of 5]

The sudden addition of larva kanji's history was interesting. I cannot believe this volume ends the way it does though! I've been reading this series online in chapter form. If I was reading this in volumes, I think I'd lose my mind with that ending.

I want to know who's gonna be on Volume 16's cover. The final chapter (129) should be coming out 7-17-25!

[Lou Bellanger · Rating 5 out of 5]

Plus qu’un tome avant la fin qui faut attendre en janvier 2026 😩 vraiment une très belle série, tous les persos sont badass et attachants. on n’a du mal à lâcher.. J’aurais bien aimé que ce soit seulement la fin d’un arc et que ça continue après il y a de la matière !!
Nous verrons ce que nous réserve le dernier tome 🥰

[Kaira · Rating 5 out of 5]

such a fun ride, i really enjoyed binge-reading this. love the way the author weaves flashbacks when the characters are in an intense fight and we can see how much they grow throughout the story. and of all characters, hoshina's growth is a fascinating one to see!!

[Eniram · Rating 5 out of 5]

Narumi et Hoshina au même endroit, sur une même bataille. Quel bonheur. Quelle synergie !
Par contre, y a pas à terminer un tome comme ça ? Sur cette note ? En plein élan ?! Ma frustration est intense ! Comment ça 2026 guys ??! 😭

[Literatura sin límites · Rating 5 out of 5]

¡Un dúo poderoso que se insultan mientras pelean!

Amo las peleas entre Narumi y Hoshina. Me reí tanto con ellos dos en este tomo.

Por otro lado, el origen del Kaiju de Kafka... no me lo ví venir. Ahora tengo más dudas.
