Kaiju No. 8 Season 2 Shares First Promo, Release Window

It’s official! Kaiju No. 8 brought its first season to a close this year, and now all eyes are trained on season two. Today, the team at Production I.G. confirmed the anime’s comeback is on track for a 2025 premiere. A new teaser trailer for season two was posted by the Kaiju No. 8 team, so you can check out the reel below.

Of course, the new teaser trailer doesn’t give much away ahead of season two. We know that Kaiju No. 8 season one ended with an intense cliffhanger. For weeks, we watched as Kafka came to terms with his kaiju powers, and he found a calling with the Japan Defense Force. However, by the end of season one, Kafka’s life was turned upside down after his powers were revealed.

Now, our hero is poised to work with a new team at the Japan Defense Force, and it will push him in new ways. Kaiju No. 8 season two is about to test Kafka in ways he never saw coming. We can expect to see this journey play out next year on screen. So if you are not caught up with Kaiju No. 8, you can find season one streaming on Hulu as well as Crunchyroll.
