“Kaiju Hyakkei” is a visual project released by the original author, Naoya Matsumoto, on “Shonen Jump+.” It depicts a scene from everyday life that is not depicted in the main story and battles with monsters while imagining a “world where monsters appear.” This allows you to enjoy the unique worldview of this work even more.
The daily lives and battles of the characters living in a world threatened by monsters are depicted with detailed and beautiful background art, which received a great response in the main story.
This project is very popular every month, and the 10th visual depicts three people: Ashiro Mina, Shinomiya Kikoru, and Okogi Konomi. With a cherry blossom viewing theme, this visual represents the three enjoying the cherry blossoms. Mina is looking at the beautiful cherry blossoms with a cup of tea, Kikoru is smiling with a sandwich in her hand, and Okogi is happily taking pictures of the cherry blossoms. The visuals show each person’s individuality. “Anime Kaiju Hyakkei” is released on the 8th of every month. Please pay attention to the visuals from next month onwards.
