Kaiju No.8 Release Date Announced

The final trailer for Kaiju No. 8 by Production I.G. was revealed earlier today, and the anime looks fantastic. Although we couldn’t tell this earlier, it looks like the animators have done justice to the amazing artwork with the monster fights and everything.

Along with the trailer, the release date for the anime was announced. Kaiju No. 8 is scheduled to premiere on April 13, 2024, at 23:00 JST (or 07:00 AM PT).

Moreover, in a rather unexpected move, the anime has achieved a unique feat as the series will be streaming weekly with English subtitles on the X (previously Twitter) platform. We don’t know for sure if we will be able to join the broadcast for free at this moment.

Alongside X, this anime will be released on Crunchyroll on April 13. However, it will arrive a little late at 23:30 JST (7:30 AM PT) right after the broadcast on X.

This April, fans worldwide will be able to watch Kaiju No. 8 each week with English subtitles, right here on X! 💥 #KaijuNo8 https://t.co/cxQUi5gWtz— KAIJU NO. 8 (@KaijuNo8_O_EN) February 14, 2024

The spring of 2024 is stacked with glorious shonen anime such as Demon Slayer season 4, My Hero Academia season 7, and more. I believe this anime will make a huge difference to the lineup as well. We hope this new monster series will captivate the anime community, much like my Editor who has been pestering me to read the manga for its incredible art, action, and storytelling.
