Kaiju No. 8, Vol. 5

In a modern-day Japan constantly threatened by giant, deadly monsters known as kaiju, former cleanup worker Kafka Hibino possesses the unique ability to transform into one of the creatures himself. In this fifth volume of the manga series, Kafka finds himself captured and marked for disposal by the Japan Defense Force—the very military organization he long dreamed of joining. Desperate to save his life, he attempts to plead his case to Director General Shinomiya, the most powerful fighter in the force's history. When talks fail, Kafka must engage in a brutal physical clash against Shinomiya, struggling to maintain mental control over his volatile, mutating kaiju form during the battle.
