It makes it realistic which is awesome. As someone who's apart of an mma gym and played football in high-school seeing your peers succeed and being there for them matters and it becomes a habit. In a way they become family
@@crimsonlotus8004 Damn, that's wholesome af. I can relate with that in band class a little. Honestly I thought the dude with sharp teeth and pink hair was gonna be the jerk . But he's actually just competitive and energetic, kinda like kirishima from mha.
They’re in the army together. For anyone to be that jerk is insane to me. You can ask any marine and I guarantee they’d never be a jerk to another marine
@@Random_19 same bro it was during high school assembly the principal was talking about the news regarding the graduation ceremony and I came in and everyone was looking at me man… it was a bit awkward 😂
In the fitness test they said that Kafka was 219 out of 225. Then at the graduation there were 27 + Kafka (who didn't pass). So only 27/225 passed, about 12%.
Her holding back a smile lol. Also the crowd cheering on our boy Kafka during the pushups! Big bro and lil sis Kikoru and Kafka lol so great. Asking to be praised for his 1% :s
He's really relatable, the humour is really cool in this anime and it doesn't feel forced because of how the protagonist is written, the characters are all enjoyable for the moment like the show btw, this delivers every week
Kafka getting an 1% increase is the equivalent of the homie who was lvl 100 back in the day coming back to play with the squad but he forgot how to play the game.
yeah sure thats cool and all but they put a whole montage of bathing and training. now we will assume audience will care since characters bonded with each other?? that's lazy af
@@aSSGoblin1488 they will obviously go more in depth if the plot requires so. not every story needs 15 sice of life episodes when you get to know the inside out of every character.
@@floydorlandofarquharson548 Not at all. Hoshina's fighting style is a very basic fighting style but people enjoy it a lot. People are really trying to connect this anime to AOT when they're so different. AOT is not the founder of the giant beasts vs humanity concept
@@slashcrafter3 yes and Hoshina style is anything but basic since he is from a samurai clan and it's not that deep and I was only making the description understandable by giving him an example of a popular character they would know and levi is basic compared to Hoshina because he his stance relies on spinning while hosina has complex dynamic slashes.
Part of his character is that he doesn't really see the kaiju power as himself. The kaiju form is basically a cheat code he has access to but he wants to complete the game without it.
Why has Kaiju no 8 been the most enjoyable spring anime?! Like every episode has been hitting with the comedy, action and characters. Production IG hella underrated as a studio.
Almost everything else that people are excited about this season is a sequel, and there's a lot of good series getting sequels this season. It's nice to have something exciting that's new and a bit less comfy when so many of us feel are trying to keep up with a bunch of the oldies all at once.
Just cause there is a bit of translation difference the Yoju (however they are spelled) are afterbeast some monsters carry little baby monsters that hatch the second the creature dies, the fliping spider one from episode 1 was an afterbeast of the giant red kaiju that got RAILEd by Mina, cause of size there can be multiple like the second one that got splat by MC

Okay, but we've all been Kafka at some point in our lives or knew a Kafka who finally got 1% 🤣 Nothing inspires a "pro" or natural or what have you, more, than seeing someone just barely making it through and getting excited about it like as though they were on the first step of their dream
"I'll kill you" Little girl...how are you going to kill the man that easily one tapped the thing that had you like a Max Payne ragdoll? please explain.
I think next episode my boy Soshiro gonna have his debut... bro is an absolute beast. And i like how the mentioned the Kaiju weapons, when the numbered weapons get introduced this show will hit a whole nother level. Hyped!!!
Im not sure if you guys catches it from previous episodes but the reason kafka known as kaiju no.8 is because in that particular day there are 8 kaiju thats being reported and since he escaped the defense force, hes been all over the media. Maybe im wrong but thats my only explanation of it.
isn`t mina and kafka same age since they are childhood friend...same place of living during child..same school...then they are similar..so everyone should stop call him old dude..give kafka the senior respect.
One thing that didn't show up here, the subleader (the chinese looking guy with the bowl-cut) is supposed to say that by claiming that he intends to 'stand by her side', Kafka has basically declared his intent to usurp him as Mina's right-hand man. Like a "You know that i'm the sub-commander here, right? You're really coming for my job like that? Ballsy of you. Do your best."
Have you guys ever seen terra formars it's a creepy anime but some lad's says it's little racist or something i don't know I would really appreciate it if you guys react to it I'm a new subscriber 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Kafka is that guy who looks weak, but still respected. At this point, people respect him despite him being the clown in the defense force. I guess what they say is true, it’s about the attitude despite being the weakest performer out of everyone.
"Don't get attached" and then the Kaiju alarm goes off? That's gotta be a death flag. The story beat I smell is budget mohawk renji, because hes been so loudmouthed the whole time, or the ex-military for the ol' "even the highly trained ones get got at any time"
Has everyone has already said, I personally super love this show for the main character not being intensely dumb and Young, in the show manage the perfectly capture guys being dudes 😂 love it.
It always rubbed me the wrong way that Mina was just going to kick Kafka in the recruitment flashback. Like I get not playing favorites but even your second in command saw his value even if it was small. There's a difference between believing he'll be there and actually denying his entry and the scene kind of does the latter, she never even give him a chance to prove it not to mention this was literally his last chance so comes off as out right cruel. Its not his fault he couldn't meet your standards and then you call him a liar in the first episode because he couldn't keep it instead of I dunno trying to support him when he sent all those years failing, like come the fuck on. So yeah I like Kaiju no.8 so this isn't on the show I love it and its manga, I just do not like Mina as character because they kind of just brush off how she's kind of an awful friend to him. Like I know she meant to be his goal and his inspiration but there are better ways of showing us Mina and not make her come off as bad friend.
It’s crazy that I could be watching the episodes by myself and then come watch the anime with you but I’d rather watch it with y’all first and then go watch it 😂
