Synopsis: After having their town destroyed by a kaiju when they were children, Kafka Hibino and Mina Ashiro decide to join the Japanese Defense Force to fight the creatures, but after failing the tests several times, Kafka is unable to become a member of the army and is assigned to a squad focused on cleaning up the town after the battle.
One day, a small talking monster enters his body through his mouth, giving him the ability to transform into a kaiju and remain conscious. Thanks to this new ability, he becomes known as Kaijuu No.8, the first to escape from the Japanese Defense Force Squadron.
Comments:
It's going to be fluid but this director doesn't seem at all experienced with this kind of anime, which gives me a certain unease. And his decision to oversimplify the designs from the manga (which weren't even that detailed) has put me off too. The only certainty from the trailer is that the action will be fluidly animated. And it's interesting to see the OP and ED bands, both international and one of them (OneRepublic) very famous.

Comments:
The director changed from part 1 to part 2. They say it's because the old director was screwing up the project and several animators were leaving because of him, but there's no way of proving it, just hearsay. Even so, to change from one part to another six months apart, something serious must have happened. The new director isn't fantastic, but he's much more experienced than the old one.

To combat this threat, a group of heroes known as the Divine Dragon Rangers was created, and they are the front line in this battle that has lasted for years.
However, this is only the truth released to the public, as all the leaders of the Evil Villain Army were defeated in the first year of combat and only the generic soldiers were left behind, accepting the role of participating in a battle show as part of a peace agreement.
Tired of this unfair treatment and suffering, one of the generic soldiers decides to infiltrate the Rangers' base in order to take revenge and prove that they are still a group of feared villains, but this will be more difficult than imagined, as there is a much more complex organization behind the heroes who present themselves to the public.

Banaza was a simple merchant who was summoned as a hero, but ended up being expelled because he couldn't use magic and had no combat skills. To make matters worse, there is no way to send him back to his old world, forcing him to start his life all over again.
However, as he rises to level 2, Banaza gains several stolen abilities, becoming incredibly powerful. Deciding to take on another identity to hide from the kingdom that despised him, Banaza assumes the name Flio and becomes an adventurer.
However, on his first mission, he ends up getting involved with Fenrys, one of the demon king's generals, who ends up being easily defeated by Flio. What he hadn't counted on, however, was that Fenrys' race had a tradition that, when defeated, she should marry her opponent.
Now in a completely unknown world, Flio decides to live alongside Fenrys as his wife, trying his best not to be discovered by the kingdom or draw too much attention to his abnormal powers.

Comments:
Too bad it fell into the hands of a half-assed staff, because this could have been an easy hit in the hands of a great staff. It's pure action and a weak guy getting strong through sheer effort (and a teacher with a bird's head).

Comments:
