Scheduled to air from April 2024.Summary Japan is a "monster superpower" where monsters destroy people's daily lives. The main character, Kafka Hibino, whose town was destroyed when he was a child, promised his childhood friend Mina Ashiro that they would "exterminate all the monsters" together. However, at the age of 32, Kafka's dreams were dashed and he found work as a monster sweeper, a dismantler of monster corpses. Kafka, however, learns from his part-time worker Reno Ichikawa that the age limit for the JSDF has been raised, and he is urged to take the test to rejoin the JSDF. Kafka renews his determination, but a mysterious creature erodes his body and turns him into a monster, and he is dubbed Monster No. 8. It is at this time that he witnesses Leno's first transformation into Monster No. 8. Kafuka The protagonist of this film is a 32-year-old man. When he was a child, the town where he lived was damaged by monsters, and he and Mina set their sights on becoming members of the defense force, but their dreams were dashed when they failed the exam. After that, he worked for Monster Sweeper Inc. cleaning up monster corpses. Although he is a bit of a lazy kid, he is sincere about his work and is trusted by his superiors. His encounter with Leno and the raising of the age limit for the entrance examination led him to once again aim for the Defense Corps. However, shortly thereafter, a small monster invades his mouth, giving him the ability to transform into a monster. He failed the enlistment examination with his monster ability sealed away, but Hoshina took notice of him for surveillance purposes and hired him after a three-month probationary period. During an attack on the Tachikawa base by Kaiju No. 10, he was forced to transform in public to save his teammates from a giant extra-terrestrial bomb released by Kaiju No. 10, and his true identity was revealed and he was escorted back to the Defense Forces Headquarters, As he repeatedly transforms into No. 8, parts of his body, such as the backs of his hands, are eroded into his monster form. Despite his stern face, he is at heart a kind and gentle person. He is brave enough to stand alone against monsters in order to help Leno escape, and he is willing to transform himself into a monster when his friends are in danger, even if it is revealed that he is a monster himself. On the other hand, he is also restless, rebelling against being called "uncle" and making a fuss about anything. Even when he is human, he has a muscular physique and high physical ability, but due to aging and lifestyle habits, he has deteriorated and is far behind his fellow team members. Also, perhaps due to his transformation into a monster, he is unable to draw much strength from his defense force suit, which has a 0% (later 1%) release rate. On the other hand, he has a wealth of knowledge about monsters gained from scavenging, and he supports the squad by providing support and information based on his knowledge.BANPRESTO This figure features faithful detailing of Kaiju No. 8 and soft vinyl material that is soft and comfortable to the touch.
