On March 4, 2025, a Twitter user revealed that Kaiju No. 8 will release Volume 16 on August 2025.

This came in the aftermath of Volume 15’s release.

There has been no official date, although this is likely based on the established pattern of volume releases, given Kaiju No. 8’s biweekly schedule.

Three volumes are released every year for Kaiju No. 8 as opposed to to the quarterly releases for most volumes for weekly manga.

Volume 16 will contain content from Chapters 120 to 127, the latter coming out by the end of May 2025.

This means we will get more confirmation by around this month or June 2025.
