manga Kaiju No. 8 is nearing its conclusion, with only two chapters remaining before its finale. It's likely that the next chapter will finally destroy the core of the Daikaiju, and the narrative will clarify the future of Kafka Hibino and the other members of the Defense Force.
In chapter 127, after Kikoru Shinomiya and Mina Ashiro weaken Meireki's mega kaiju, Kafka uses all his strength and the resentment of those killed by the daikaiju to deliver the final blow and destroy the exposed core. This moment generates both anticipation and apprehension, as the mega kaiju can regenerate rapidly. In the next chapter, the manga will reveal whether Kafka actually succeeded in destroying the daikaiju's core.

In the final scene of the last chapter, it seems that the core of Meireki's mega kaiju has finally been destroyed. Although a twist is still possible, it's likely that the work will use the final two chapters to clarify Kafka Hibino's fate and conclude the narrative.
Chapter 127 highlighted the importance of the protagonist's coup, making it clear that, despite the help from the Defense Force members, he is a key player in defeating the daikaiju. Furthermore, despite the limited dialogue, the chapter conveys the apprehension of everyone watching the fight between Kafka and the mega kaiju. Thus, it's clear that the fate of the country rests in Hibino's hands.
