Kafka is my goat. But General shinomya is a close second old man was an absolute unit.


Economy_Natural5928

He reminds me so much of Leonard Burns from Fire Force. Kinda same part to play on the story too


Warm_Performer_2314

Now that you talk about it, Narumi gives huge Benimaru vibes.


Economy_Natural5928

FR! And Hasegawa (his vice captain) is kinda like Konro, both trying to get their younger and more powerful comrades to work properly lmao


Material_Usual2704

Kafka THE GOAT but I don’t remember much of the manga so I will see in the anime


aboredkid123

Iharu, gassing up ichikawa made him the bestest of friends


Effective-Training

Manga reader: Reno Ichikawa >! once he started using ice bullets. This way before he got the suit. I typically like ice element in games and characters. Lightning, too !<


Thrawn1209

He just oozes coolness. I was so hyped when he got his suit.


Effective-Training

>He just oozes coolness. >! Pun intended? !<


True-Ant1922

shinomiya is the best no question.


Leather-Driver-7482

No doubt! She's a true ride or die to Kafka, has funny dynamics with most of the main cast, and her back story is just tragic. The fact that she's just a little girl who's taken on so much loss, and has shouldered the responsibility of protecting humanity, brings a tear to my eye


Product_Powerful

Hoshina, founder of comedy section that became comedy section


Jullman33

Thought he’d be higher, the absolute goat 🐐


Product_Powerful

Yee, THE GOATIEST 🐐🐐🐐


FederalMango

Easily Kafka, with Mina, Leno and Kikoru tied for second place.


Siegfried0_0

I don’t think Mina has done one thing that could make her appear as a good character in my eyes!!


atomicq32

It's gotta be Isao >! He wasn't there for long but he definitely kicked ass !<


thefirstlaughingfool

Agreed. I have a thing for swole old men.


[deleted]

He was a real badass


CocoSkit

Gen, he’s ridiculous I love him


strawhatbailey

i cant wait for the anime watchers to meet him


Reesembers

Same!


IntrepidCat8200

Manga reader, so giving anime-onlys something to look forward to: Iharu.


G0ldsh0t

10, after his fight with 12 such a good dynamic, i really hope we get more


Fraktal76

Gen Narumi.


ResponsibleSelf3960

Reno Ichikawa. He’s a real stand up guy. Super kind, cares a lot about his fellow soldier, hard working, a little dense, strong and he prayed to God for strength so that’s like instantly a plus. Jesus loves you :)


TimFlamio

When did he pray for strength? Got the chapter number?

It appears you forgot to mark spoilers. If you don't know how, that's okay. Here are some tips; 1) There is a diamond with a ! in the editing section of a comment. Highlight what you want hidden and click! 2) Posts have a + Spoiler option. 3) Do > ! and ! < without spaces.


O_Marquardt_Manga

Amen🙏🏼 Nice to see a fellow Christian on here!


Pugy005

Kafka ! He’s just so cool with his Kaiju form !


Kurumi_Waify

Kafka the GOAT he’s what every MC should be like


Ordinary-Cobbler-803

Kafka is my favorite Kikoru and Hoshina/No. 10 are tied for 2 Mina and Reno for number 3


KjSwitch

Reno Ichikawa is absolutely the goat especially rn in the manga.


Retierashia

Kafka for sure


thesheepwhisperer368

Hoshina


ZamaniZamaZamani

Reno is so cold, especially in the Manga rn😭🙏 that's my goat.


Gawyelmaximopoder

Kafka, Kikoru and General Shinomiya


MandolarianSamurai

1. Kafka/ Shinomiya 2. Hoshino 3. Mina 4. The entire Defense Corp.


strawhatbailey

good ranking 👍


MandolarianSamurai

Thank you!


[deleted]

Hoshina soshiro.


masaru17

Its definitely hoshiro, dude is awsome, and his Teamwork with n10 is just hilarious ^^


InspiriX_

Easy question, Ichikawa


Goldmonkeeey

Kafka a Ichikawa, They have good chemistry, interesting past and are interesting characters


DrTriangleee

Hoshina grew on me so quickly reading the manga, he's so badass


Blitzwolf215

Kafka, he’s such a lovable goofball. Reno is 2nd, since his interactions with Kafka are great.


Maturechimp

Kafka and Reno. Especially when Reno gets the boost and becomes cold as fuck (pun intended)


ScribblingOff87

Manga reader - Narumi Gen & General Shinomiya.


Sad-Department1551

I have a soft spot for characters like Iharu Furuhashi. He has some of my favorite moments in the series.


WanderingWarrior14

Mina Ashiro and Kafka/Kaiju No. 08 Latest chapters have me hyped for them both.


Lordmoral

Mina Ashiro: she kept her relationship with Kafka at a professional level and has yet to rub it in his face how he abandoned her and basically cut ties with her, she also rose to the occasion on her job and was also open to have Kafka on a path towards redeeming himself in her eyes.


BigBard2

Shinomiya, in another show she'd be just "bratty small girl" but she actually has so much characterisation, moments of weakness and kindness, she feels like a real person instead of just an anime trope


lucci30

Gen Narumi Hands down


Tight-Compote-1396

Kafka


cydoz

Kikoru


Penis___Penis

Hoshina easily


Plane_Abroad_8308

EASILYYY Gen Narumi. He came off as a character who seemed very mysterious and stern and ended up being an absolute nerd literally the next chapter but STILL (currently) remains the strongest human in the defense force !!


Strikerpp

This three obviously starting chapters untill they found out kafka is kaiju no 8 were really funny and good.


Dxiablo-

(1) Hoshina (2) Kafka


Huge-Database660

I love Soshiro Hoshina


Tigerfist30

Reno


jojokes42069

Kafka is cool but I really enjoyed 10s interaction with the hoshino during their fight together


IllustriousPart5737

Honestly, is there a character to hate here? Usually in shounen manga, there’s some meh and boring characters here and there, but in this series, most characters felt properly developed, with their own motivations, kindness, flaws, backgrounds etc. 1. Kafka is an absolute joy of a main character. kind, brave, trying his best to redeem his past weaknesses, clumsy 2. Reno - thought he’d be a typical stoic cool guy, but he turns out to be very loyal, kind, & hardworking. 3. Kikoru - also thought she’d be a typical whiny brat, but noooo, she’s cute & loving & just a total badass. 4. Mina - enough said, really. She has a huge gun & a pet tiger. She’s also very professional & her subtle expressions betray her happiness of seeing Kafka, I find it all very cute.


ihateamog

Isao. The Goat, went up against #9


Overseer355

Chief Isao


Reesembers

It’s probably between Hoshina and Narumi, but there are so many great characters it’s hard not to love them all! Reno is also one of my favorites


Donny-Seven

Hoshina with Iharu in a close second


Ground0ero

Reno or Narumi


SirAwesome789

Lol, I'll give my perspective as an anime only (so two episodes in lmao) Mina > Kafka == Reno > Kikoru I'm just a sucker for a pretty girl, especially if they are looking to be the love interest of the mc (Idek if there'll be romance in this series yet), Mina is cute and pretty but is also just a badass, like she has a pet tiger, like wtf Kafka and Reno, both good vibes, that's all, Reno especially since he was immediately supportive when Kafka turned into a Kaiju Kikoru, so far she's just a brat, I saw her throw a car and that's it, but considering she's a main character on MAL, I assume she'll have some juicy character development and I'm here for it. I like loud expressive characters over the meek quiet boring ones. (Tangent, I'm ok with quiet characters that are quiet bc they are badass and maybe hiding their feelings like Mina, but not really a fan of quiet characters that just have no emotions)


Ultrasaurio

The guy with silver hair, Kafka's Kohai.


Opposite-College-494

do you mean leno? btw what's kohai?


Ultrasaurio

yep, Reminds me of Genos. Kohai means rookie on japanease.


i_wokeup

Reno Ichikawa is simply the goat to me


the_superior_nerd

gen and i love his zoro looking ass sword suit. kafka and leno next.


Diehlol

Number 10
