5 Fan-Favorite Kaiju No. 8 Characters, Ranked

It hasn’t been that long, but we already love them.

Kaiju No. 8 (Kaijuu 8-gou) started airing not that long ago, on April 13, but it’s already managed to become one of the biggest anime of Spring 2024. And the series’ characters can also be thanked for that.

5. Mina

Strong female character? Strong female character!

Although there isn’t much of Mina in the series for now, she seems like a character that will become a fan favorite for many. She doesn’t say much and allows her actions to speak for her.

Mina gives off the vibes of a mysterious superhero who comes into the battle, when it’s time to deal with some kaiju, and then disappears again. And excuse our romantic mood, but we can’t wait to learn what is going on between her and Kafka.

4. Reno

The series wouldn’t be as fun without him, that’s for sure. Although we expected Reno to be absolutely terrified by Kafka’s kaiju situation, he surprised us by being chill about it.

Reno is the character who’s trying to keep the Kaiju No. 8 madness under control, and even though he fails at that a lot, we can’t help but admire him for his kind soul and caring nature.

3. Kikoru

She might come off as bratty and annoying at first, but there’s definitely something more to her. The strongest trainee, an absolute beast on the battlefield ― there’s no one like her. Kikoru’s badass skills can fascinate any viewer, that’s for sure.

The latest anime episodes hint at some deep family drama, which makes Kikoru even more interesting. A skilled warrior who’s been traumatized in the past? Yes, please!

2. Kafka

A lot of shounens suffer from the “boring protagonist” syndrome, but Kaiju No. 8 is not one of them. Kafka is not just the main lead, he’s also an immensely entertaining character. He’s 90% of the series’ humor, and we love him for that. And his determination deserves a lot of admiration.

1. Hoshina

Kaiju No. 8 fans joke that there’s only one correct answer to the “Who’s your favorite character?” question, and it’s Hoshina. There hasn’t been much of him in the anime for now, but manga readers promise that it’s going to change and you’re going to fall for this character irrevocably.

Some even compare him to Attack on Titan’s Levi level of excitement, but we guess we’ll have to see more of him to be capable of making such brave statements.
