#7: Mighty No. 8 - THE KAIJU CAST
Monsters attack as the Hideaway Defense Force take on Jump+'s new hotly discussed Kaiju-themed battle manga, Kaiju No. 8! Does it have the potential to be a heavy-hitter? What does it need to improve on? Opinions were a tad split on this one so there was plenty to discuss! Also Hovin has a Switch now and will apparently bring this up at every possibility, like it or not. Heaven help us.
00:00 - Intro
00:45 - What have we all been playing/watching/reading? (Food Wars, various Switch games and more)
08:21 - Kaiju No 8 Discussion begins!
10:10 - early question: Do we still want a manga about a Kaiju clean-up crew? (actually gets answered at 11:47, whoops)
28:00 - What do we want from the series going forward?
31:49 - Q&A section BEGINS! First Q, where do the Kaiju come from?
34:12 - Nature of the new humanoid Kaiju that attacked the exam? Are all kaiju infected animals and humans by the sort of bugs that infected Kafka?
35:18 - Does Kaiju No. 8 have the potential to be Jump's next big thing?
37:24 - Thoughts on the insect that infected Kafka? Motives, etc
38:35 - How do we feel about the art style?
40:55 - Closing thoughts! Sign-offs, plugs, etc
