Kaiju No. 8 is a Shonen manga by Naoya Mijimoto, published on the Shueisha ShonenJump+ site.

This series was launched in 2012 and has enjoyed a huge rise in popularity. The series has been reprinted in over 1.2 million copies with only 2 volumes. The anime adaptations of their favorite characters are a great way to show fans your favorite characters.

The anime adaptation of Kaiju No. 8 is still in development, mainly due to a shortage of material. A Jump manga can usually be adapted into anime after it has at least 100 to 120 chapters.

This gives enough material to make a sequel if the anime is successful. Each episode is also well-paced and doesn’t rely on fillers.

For now, Kaiju No. 8 has published 30 chapters. This is not enough material for one-cour animation. It will take approximately 2 years to reach 100 chapters. This is especially true when you consider that the author releases three chapters per month and takes a week off.

You can assume that the anime adaptation for Shueisha has entered its planning phase. The planners are looking for producers to finance the anime, and deciding which studio and staff members will adapt it.
