Kaiju No. 8

Kaiju No. 8, launched by Viz in 2021, follows a man who gains the ability to transform into a kaiju, forcing him to walk a razor's edge between monster and monster-hunter in a world where giant creatures are a constant threat. As of 15 issues, the series has become a breakout hit for its clever blend of action, humor, and a distinctly human protagonist grappling with his monstrous power. Written and drawn by Naoya Matsumoto, it stands out in the modern kaiju genre for its fresh take on the classic premise, earning it a rapid cult following.
