Following the destruction of their hometown, childhood friends Kafka Hibino and Mina Ashiro make a pact to become officers of the Defense Force, a militarized organization in charge of protecting Japan from colossal monsters known as “Kaijuu”. Decades later, Kafka, 32, has almost given up her dreams of heroism. Instead, he dedicates himself to cleaning the remains of the massacred Kaijuu after being defeated by brave soldiers, including Mina, who has successfully achieved his common goal.
Meeting his new co-worker, Reno Ichikawa, Kafka faces a mirror of his past self: an ambitious young man whose only desire is to fight as a member of the Defense Force. Unfortunately, both are involved in a strange encounter with a Kaijuu. Although Kafka shows off her innate heroic nature and rescues Reno from certain death, she is seriously injured.
While both of them recover in the hospital, Kafka appears to be attacked by another of the beasts. As a result, it acquires the ability to transform into a humanoid Kaijuu with the strength and powers of the huge monsters that threaten Japan. Nicknamed “Kaijuu No. 8” by the military, Kafka decides to use his new gifts for the common good. United by mutual respect, Kafka and Reno prepare to join warriors as a mine at the forefront of the Defense Force.
