A thrilling Kaiju No. 8 spin-off, with stories focusing on fan-favourite characters!

Spinning off from the smash hit Kaiju No. 8, this manga takes a deeper look into some of the series’ most beloved characters. See characters like Hoshina in the past as they struggle to find themselves through battles with deadly kaiju!

The harsh words of Hoshina’s father, “Give up on joining the defence force,” could have hobbled him for life, but Hoshina is not your average kaiju fighter. Armed with his signature swords, he shakes free of the doubts of the past, determined to take down kaiju and make a name for himself!

Requested a price match on a weekend day expecting to hear back on the Monday, but I got a response from Dylan just a few hours later, put through my order and the books were here Tuesday! Super fast and friendly service, love supporting smaller NZ businesses! Thanks to Heroes Dylan and Jordan for making my book-buying experience a breeze 😄
