Kaiju No. 8 Game Adds New Character Sagan Shinomiya

Anime and manga enthusiasts know how expansive these fictional universes can grow, and Kaiju No. 8 continues this tradition with an exclusive new character debuting in Kaiju No. 8: The Game.

Meet Sagan Shinomiya

The game presents an alternate storyline where mysterious gates appear across Japan, threatening to unleash unprecedented numbers of kaiju. This crisis leads to the formation of CLOZER (Closing Order with Zero Restrictions), a new defense organization complementing the existing Kaiju Defense Force.

Leading this special unit is Sagan Shinomiya (pictured left), a completely original character serving as the enigmatic adoptive older sister of established character Kikoru Shinomiya. Developers remain tight-lipped about her backstory, combat abilities, and narrative significance within the game universe.

Original Characters in Anime Adaptations

While original characters commonly appear as player avatars in anime-based games, Sagan Shinomiya's prominent leadership role makes her particularly noteworthy. Akatsuki Games, the developer behind this title, appears fully committed to Kaiju No. 8 following their recent discontinuation of Tribe Nine after just three months.

This development strategy might raise concerns among potential players about the game's longevity. For those interested in anime-themed mobile experiences, we recommend exploring our curated selection of the 15 best anime mobile games currently available.
