This show messes up a lot, but one thing it does well is the horror, especially at the start of this new arc. That wedding scene was rough, ya just can't help but feel bad there, the ones getting married at least. But now we’re seeing the biggest swarm of kaijuu yet. Like does the corps even have enough power to handle this? Probably not. No way there won’t be casualties in a mess like this. Who’s even going to save all these people?

Meanwhile, Soushirou is out here giving a pep talk to a kaiju. Can’t believe that actually works. He’s starting to feel like a typical shounen hero. Still, those poor kaiju were just fodder for him to flex. And wowie, 20 km.... With this series’ wild power scaling, I wouldn’t have blinked if they said 100 km. Like behold the might of Commander Mina... God, finally this shit is over next. Though, a season three or a movie or some type of sequel is destined to happen, so yay.

Kaiju have appeared simultaneously in various parts of Tokyo! Narumi's 1st Unit and Mina's 3rd Unit are dispatched, but the situation does not remain in Tokyo; monsters have begun attacking important facilities all over Japan. The only ones to face this unprecedented "swarm disaster" are elites who can operate identified monster weapons and young, well-trained forces - the time has come for the new Japan Defense Force, which carries on Isao's will, to take action!
Kikoru she has finally wielded the number 4 weapon and she's rocking.
Heck yeah!! Our Vice-Captain is eliminates each and every threats with the help of number 10 weapon "The comedy duo" 😂.
Ashiro-san is making her moves to stabilize the situation from getting worse.
This week's radio episode was hilarious 😂 cuz of our Narumi-kun

Don't you just HATE it when a Kaiju attacks on your wedding day? You prepare everything from the catering to the bride's wedding dress and a Kaiju pops out. Very inconvenient.

I know it’s cool seeing everyone get their upgraded suits and all, but I feel so bad for the dude who had to watch his fiancé get presumably paralyzed on their wedding day. At least Narumi got there in time to save her from being eaten, but damn that’s rough. Respect to the husband to be for being willing to draw the Kaiju attention and die to protect her before the Defense force showed up.

Pure chills seeing Kikoru looking just like her mom in the number 4 suit. Can’t remember if it was Isao or Hikaru that wanted her to stay out of the force, but she always destined for greatness.

Hoshina and 10’s chemistry is great, I love how they actually get stronger the more they argue lmao. Will be interesting to see what they look like at 90%+ power. Mina’s time to shine next week. Doesn’t really feel like we’re going into a finale, wonder how they’ll wrap this up next week and set up for an inevitable season 3.

Wedding - why should i care for noname npc, its just a filler.

Soshiro fight - that was dope, and funny - No. 10 was like big child.

Rest? What rest? Kafka whining, and then boom premise of next episode.

Why are there no sound effects in some of the fights this season? Don't remember it being this much of an issue in season 1 but some of these strikes feel so weightless, shame because the animation looks good.

That beginning man, I knew something was going to happen to make Kafka appear, but it was really sad to watch the joyous occasion of watching Tokuda's daughter get married ended up being a nightmare. His son-in-law seems to be injured and now Chieko is likely to have lost the ability to walk, watching him trying to sacrifice himself so that she wouldn't get eaten was so admirable but also so sad.

I was just waiting for Kafka to appear, but I'm glad Narumi appeared to finally not let things get worse. It's understandable why Kafka never appeared after hearing Shinomone's words at the last scene.

Kikoru was already strong but seeing her having the capability to fly will definitely make her rise the ranks with her accomplishments. I like that one unit captain or whatever his rank adjusted the units strategy to help Kikoru even though she was moving too fast for them to be that helpful lol.

Hoshina and No. 10 are an amusing pair, I kind of like how Hoshina started riling up 10 in order for their synchro to get better. It's unfortunate that Hoshina can't really fight in a way he normally likes, but this change up might give him new inspirations to get stronger. 10 being so stubborn he anchors himself into the ground was amusing.

Even though its recent mobile game disappoint me, the anime is more than good enough to compensate for that. But as someone point out (including me), Kaiju no.8 belongs to cinema, you just can't enjoy a big monster in a small screen.

Start of the episode was pretty mean lol, I’m glad that Kafka’s old coworker survived along with his daughter (her husband I’m not as sure about) but damn they really made it seem like she was about to get chomped, I thought they were gonna kick things off in a dark way but they didn’t go that far. But it really is all going down now, kaiju have showed up all over Japan keeping every division busy, it looks really bad but the characters we know have gotten some badass upgrades, like Kikoru wearing the No. 4 weapon that her mom used to use, I really like how she’s a mix of both her parents when it comes to how she fights too, with the agility of Hikaru and the power of Isao, she’s an absolute beast.

And there’s also Hoshina using the No. 10 weapon, who is actually still sentient within the suit. That is a really cool detail and adds a new layer to the connection between user and the weapon, and when it seemed like it wouldn’t work out initially, it turned into the two of them becoming extremely synchronized as they wrecked shit, that was a fun sequence. The best part tho? Gotta be the interactions between Hoshina and No. 10, they may be complete opposites in how they handle fighting but they have some great chemistry, comedy duo is definitely a fitting title for them, I’m excited to see what 90%+ power looks like if they can achieve it. And that was the final Hoshina talk show huh, they were fun little post credits bits so I’m sad to see there won’t be anymore, but at the same time I’m glad that means the final episode of this season will have the whole time to leave us off with some greatness.

I loved today's episode, it went by so fast lol.

All of them are so so cool.

Kikoru is a badass, the dynamic between No 10 and Hoshina was great. Narumi still OP as usual.

I spend thousands of dollars on a wedding and a kaiju face pops up lmao.

Episode was action packed, but I didn't care about anything that I was watching. I feel totally disconnected from the story this season.

And the whole power synchronization back and forth crap is starting to get stale now. Every fight. It's the same shit. They're arguing now and are 30% synchronized and the number is shrinking oh my god we're so screwd.... Wait, hold on they're 70% synchronized now! Woooooww, how much higher can they get?! ZzZzZzZz...

Hoshina and No. 10 have a Ling and Greed sort of vibe and I can't get enough of it. And while having Narumi come back for the last Hoshi Night Nippon is only natural, not having No. 10 on as an extra guest feels like a wasted opportunity lol. Just imagine the three-way banter potential.

Hope that wedding gets rescheduled with Kafka actually making it this time.

The beginning of the episode almost felt like horror. It easily could be an opening scene of a kaiju movie. Worst wedding ever. Everyone almost died. But man, I'm glad the bride wasn't eaten. But it looks like the damage is already done. I don't think she'll be able to walk. And the groom already looks half-dead. I feel bad for Kafka's former coworker. What a terrible day for all these kaijus to show up.

This was probably the coolest episode of the season yet. First off, Kikoru in her mom's suit looks so freaking cool. And she can fly too. She was already flying way before during the entrance exam. Now she can literally fly. That's way too OP.

I thought things couldn't get better but then the manzai duo of Hoshina and Kaiju No. 10 came up. That was freaking awesome lol. Kaiju No. 10 might just become my favorite kaiju. Sorry Kafka. But Hoshina is just way too cool with that suit.

Only one episode left. That sucks. This season feels way too short for some reason. I hope the last episode will have some Kafka action at least. Hopefully a 3rd season will also be confirmed soon.

Tragic. We should have gotten this episode about halfway through this season, the remainder of this arc definitely needs at least 2-3 more episodes. Hoshina and no.10 was nice to watch, but it took up a lot of the episode

The action in this episode was good, and I like No. 10 a lot; he's actually based. Overwhelm, overwhelm, overwhelm!

Even so, outside of the action sequences, this shit is ass, it's SO generic shounen pilled, and nothing is particularly unique or interesting.

Loved the episode. I really liked how dedicated it was to both Sōshirō and Kikoru. Though I didn’t love how Kafka wasn’t all that present, haha. Nevertheless, I’m really glad to see Kikoru getting the hang of #4. Meanwhile, Sōshirō's the one really having it rough with #10's stubbornness and all, haha.
