Chapter 96 recap

Chapter 96 of Kaiju No. 8 started with both citizens and soldiers rejoicing over Mina Ashiro's triumph, suggesting that the Second Wave attacks may finally be over. Taking inspiration from Mina's remarkable progress, Kafka Hibino reflects on how far she has come, fueling his determination to catch up to her. However, as the celebrations reach their peak, Kaiju No. 9 intervenes through a video broadcast, admitting their underperformance but claiming victory in the end.

He declared that the only thing left was to seize "that power" for himself, approaching what seemed to be an alternate version of No. 14 radiating a white glow. Referring to the fighters who vanquished the other numbered Kaiju as the most destructive forces within the Defense Force, he witnessed No. 14's lifeless body surging with energy.
Kaiju No. 9 then disclosed his strategy to acquire "her power" and attain victory, as No. 14's body unfolded before him, revealing a portal. Just as Mina observed, the remains of No. 14 also followed suit, and No. 9 entered the portal, suggesting that they should bring an end to this. The chapter concluded, marking the commencement of a new story arc for the series, titled The Final Wave.
What to expect (speculative)
Chapter 97 of Kaiju No. 8 will showcase Mina Ashiro finally battling her true enemy in the war, while other members of the Defense Force rush to her aid. Among the capable fighters, Kafka Hibino is anticipated to be the first to arrive and provide significant assistance.
Additionally, in Kaiju No. 8 chapter 97, hints or possibly even a full revelation of No. 9's grand plans for Mina's power are expected. The title of the next arc, "The Final Wave," suggests that the story may be coming to a close soon rather than continuing with a third wave. If No. 9 does indeed disclose his grand plan in future issues, it is highly likely that this is the direction the story is heading.

Editor's P/S
As a Gen Z netizen, I am eagerly anticipating the release of Kaiju No. 8 Chapter 97. The series has been on a hiatus for a few weeks, and I can't wait to see what happens next.
The previous chapter ended on a cliffhanger, with Kaiju No. 9 emerging from a portal and declaring that he would absorb Mina Ashiro's power. I'm worried about Mina, but I'm also excited to see how she and Kafka will overcome this new threat. I think that Kaiju No. 8 Chapter 97 will be a pivotal chapter in the series, and I can't wait to read it.
