Naoya Matsumoto's Kaiju No. 8 manga began serialization in July 2020 on Shueisha's Shonen Jump+ and has since been collected into 11 volumes as of December 2023. Viz Media licensed the series movies in English in North America and they describe the story:
Kafka hopes to one day keep his pact with his childhood friend Mina to join the Japanese Self-Defense Forces and fight alongside her. But while she's neutralizing kaiju as Third Division captain, Kafka is stuck cleaning up the aftermath of her battles. When a sudden rule change makes Kafka eligible to join the Self-Defense Forces, he decides to try out for the team again. There's just one problem—he's landed on the Self-Defense Forces' disabled list under the codename Kaiju No. 8.
