The first season of Kaiju No 8 ended with a bang as the anime was announced for Season 2 with a teaser.
Kaiju No 8is among thebest animeof the year so far. After debuting in April, Kaiju No 8 went on to establish a dedicated audience that anticipated every episode. The first season of theanime showended today, June 29, withEpisode 12. But fret not, there’s more coming.
Kaiju No 8 Season 2 is officially confirmed to be in production. The accompanying teaser shows a burning city with a voice announcing the sequel. But there’s been no information about when we can expect the new episodes to drop.
However, there are some things we do know. For example, the second season will pick up right where the first season left off. Episode 12 has concluded the Kaiju No 8 Captured Arc. This means Season 2 will start with the Kaiju Weapon Arc. If Season 2 also gets 12 episodes, then it can adapt up to the Cataclysm Arc of theKaiju No 8 manga.
We expect all the main characters to return with their respective voice actors. That means Masaya Fukunishi, Wataru Katou, Asami Seto, Ai Fairouz, and Kengo Kawanishi will reprise their roles as Kafka, Reno, Mina, Kikoru, and Hoshina respectively. Kouki Uchiyama will also join the main cast as Gen Narumi in Kaiju No 8 Season 2.
