Okay Kaiju No. 8...I see you.

So I'll be honest the first volume was enjoyable but not amazing. But volume 2 stepped it up in a lot of ways.

See this time we have a little deeper look into the acdemy who recruits and does the work to take out Kaiju. So spending more time with each character really helps. I really started to like Leno who I didn't give much of a shit about in book 1. I even liked Kikoru a lot here, she's badass. And Mina's special sniping attack? Bro...if this gets a good animated team for the anime we are in for a goddamn treat.

The fights are fun, the humor works a lot of the time, and the ending really gave me some big "oh shit anyone can die at any time" vibes and I'm here for it.

A 4.5 out of 5.
