On August 12, 2025, less than a month after the manga ended, Kaiju No. 8 reveals the cover for its final volume 16, featuring Kafka Hibino in his human form.

In Volumes 1 and 8, Kaiju No. 8 was shown instead of his human form, so in a way, this is a fitting way to end the story.

The release of the final chapter has also coincided with the start of Season 2 of the anime, which is currently ongoing.
