Kaiju No.8 | MAIN TRAILER

Something that just came to my mind:

Assuming SJ is posting the chapters as they released in Japan, and not doing some odd delay (like we’re months if not years behind), the anime was made fairly early in the manga’s release. The release schedule is every other week (sometimes skipping a week, so at times, basically a chapter a month instead of the planned two) and the story didn’t really hit a good stopping point that wouldn’t make the anime feel like it ended on a cliffhanger.
