TOHO animation revealed the Third Trailer for the upcoming Kaiju No. 8. This trailer contained information about the upcoming show. It gave out some bits and details of what to expect from this upcoming show. There were some cast members and we got introduced to the protagonist. There was an important detail after this trailer. It said “April 2024. Available Simultaneously on X Worldwide”.


Marketing startegy


The marketing strategy for the show itself isn’t too far-fetched because as of the moment Japan is X’s #1 most active Country so the platform has a major/dedicated following in Japan. Japan is going to be the main target market for this upcoming anime. This might be one of the reasons for this decision but there are others exclusive to the team in charge of this anime.


Subtitle


As of the moment, there’s no information if this anime will contain English Subtitles. If Japan is TOHO’s main target, English Subtitles will not be necessary but time will tell. The third trailer didn’t make mention of any subtitle be it English, French or others.


Premise


Written by Naoya Matsumoto, Kaiju No. 8 follows the story of Kafta Hibino who vows to become a member of the Defense Force to fight Kaiju after his town was destroyed by one at an early age. After failing the extrance examination several times later on in life, Kafta gets a job (part of a clean-up crew that dispose Kaiju remains). He later on obtains the ability to turn into a Kaiju after a small Kaiju enters his body through his mouth. He later on passes the examination while keeping his Kaiju form in secret. Kafta is given a code name “Kaiju No. 8” but eventually encounters other humanoid Kaiju’s.


Closure


The Kaiju No. 8 anime is expected to premier in April 2024 on TV Tokyo and will be broadcasted globally on X. There’s a lot of anticipation for this anime. To learn more, you can check the Kaiju No. 8 website.
