Chapter Nine is the 9th chapter of the Kaiju No. 8 manga series.
Summary[]
Soshiro and Mina arrive at the area where the kaiju had been attacking. He scouts the area, trying to understand what happens, but he is still confused as to what happened. He is then informed that Kafka, Leno, and Kikoru all just arrived at a shelter for evacuation nearby. Looking at his surroundings, he asks Mina what she thought of Kikoru despite her strength. On his own, Soshiro speculates that Kaiju no.8 and this kaiju’s attack may be connected, as they left similar tracks.
At the hospital, Leno considers Kafka lucky due to his such light injuries, but that Kikoru was also in stable condition. Reflecting upon himself, Kafka acknowledges that he could lose so much more if he got too far, but that passion can make him forget things like these and thanks Leno for being a good friend. However, they didn’t know that Mina had been listening to their conversation and steps in without warning, which shocks the two. She thanks them for saving Kikoru and Kafka hesitates to talk to her, but stops as he wants to do so after finally becoming a troop member.
That night, Kaiju No. 9 looks at the news and finds out that the kaiju he had sent had killed zero people and can’t believe that Mina can be that strong. He soon gets a call that scolds him to get back on track and he transforms into a human to act as a Monster Sweeper Inc. worker. However, his disguise falters at times.
