Man this series has completely blown out of scale. Like, Kaiju 9 is STILL the only major villain we've encountered. we must be up to like the tenth "all is lost NO WAIT" moment and like the 5th in this single fight alone. Its too much, ive completely burnt out. Its the same problem bleach had where the big dumb lead hanging out with his friends doing smaller stuff was just more engaging than this endless escalation.

I get you. The smaller fights against regular kaiju were interesting and engaging, and didn't overstay their welcome. Instead of letting the protagonist grow naturally, We've been getting Ex-machina after Ex-machina in rapid succession whenever he needs it. There were a lot of things to explore and a ton of characters to work with, but we've been gunning it directly towards major plot points since 9 was introduced.

I am actually quite shocked there wasn't a form change for Kafka. It would be the ample time to introduce ANY power system/power up for his character. Granted it just happened so we could expect to see communication between Kafka kaiju and himself now. Working together instead of a silent power in his body.

I feel that but I kinda like they haven't kept solving villains and replacing them with bigger badder guys.

Finishing this series up with just this VILLIAN being the ancient evil is fine by me

My impression is Kaiju 9 was defeated and this new enemy is the embodiment of evil/kaiju.

119 chapters in and I can't shake the feeling that too many hands were played too early here. This has 3rd act vibes but also 2nd act/character arc vibes?

the slow pacing per chapter and the release frequency make this unenjoyable. when this ends, i feel like i'm gonna need to binge-read this in one go.
