Kaiju No. 8 Chapter 90: Release Date, Speculations, Read Online

Hoshina adapts single sword style in chapter 89 of Kaiju No. 8, titled “Talent Runs Through Their Veins”

The chapter had a little throwback to Hoshina’s childhood and how he was always behind his elder brother. Despite all these touching stories, the manga feels like it is getting generic with its treatment of battle scenes.

It looks like a cycle of how every fight will move ahead. First, the hero will get overwhelmed, then the sad backstory, then he fights back and ultimately defeats the enemy with an unexpected technique or twist.

Here are the latest updates.

1. Chapter 90 Discussion

Hoshina and #10 might defeat #12 in chapter 90 of Kaiju No. 8.

However, there are high chances of a twist coming up where #12 shows up with a new power-up and overwhelms Hoshina. This is how it has gone in all the battles up till now, and it won’t be a surprise if it happens again.

Hoshina seems to be in the right balance as of now. Let’s see how long he is able to maintain it. We will only get to see the other fights once this one is over, and to be honest, it’s becoming a drag.

5. Chapter 89 Recap

The chapter starts with Hoshina’s flashback, where everyone is praising Souichirou, Hoshina’s older brother. Hoshina has always been seen as a cheap imitation of his older brother.

Back in the present time, Hoshina’s sword gets broken by #12. #12 outclasses #10 in all aspects, confirming that it is the final version. #12 attacks Hoshina with a powerful slice, but Hoshina narrowly escapes.

Hoshin claims that he is not going to lose any more than he already did and tells #10 to kill it together. He tells Okonogi to launch Case 7. She dispatches it immediately.

Hoshina and #10’s release power never increases beyond 83%. So this time, Hoshina thinks that rather than trying to increase their release power, he will change his tactics.

Hoshina decides to use his brother’s technique, a single sword style. Okonogi remembers how, previously, Hoshina told her that he would use a single-sword technique in case #9 was studying his fighting style.

This was to ensure that he had a backup ready, as he couldn’t lose when it came to blades. #12 rushes in to attack. Hoshina pulls out his sword like a samurai and slashes one arm of #12 with just one slash.
