During AnimeJapan 2025 on March 22, 2025, Kaiju No. 8 released a trailer for Season 2, which will premiere on July 2025.

Fans have noticed the improved character art, particularly for Gen Narumi, who will be central to the trailer and Season 2’s plot as the Captain of the First Division takes Kafka under his wing to train his use of Kaiju No. 8’s power.

As Season 1 ended on Chapter 38 with the Kaiju No.8 Captured Arc, we might see Season 2 end on Chapter 75 with the conclusion of the Cataclysms Arc or even enter the Second Wave arc.
