The Crunchyroll Store is enjoying a sizeable sale on everything from manga to statues at the moment, but the offer that stopped me scrolling wasn’t a Nendoroid or anime boxset; it’s because I was being eyeballed by a variant cover to Kaiju No. 8 volume one.
Sure, it’s a good story that’s gotten a lot of well-deserved attention for its artwork by Naoya Matsumoto. We know all that already. But something I hadn’t seen was this variant cover (which isn’t surprising on reflection, because it’s exclusive to the Crunchyroll Store - mystery solved). Showing off hero Kafka’s kaiju form staring right out at us with a single, eerie green eye illuminated, it’s attention-grabbing stuff. And happily, it’s got a discount at the moment; you can pick it up for$9.59 at Crunchyrollinstead of $11.99. That may only be a small reduction, but hey - every little helps.
If this doesn’t float your boat, there’s probably something for you in the widermanga salethat also includes art books. (You can pick up the official Elden Ring Art Book for$41.84 at Crunchyrollrather than $59.99, for example.) My eye was drawn to the statues, though. Whether it’s something more subdued like theDemon Slayer Giyu Tomioka figureor the more ambitiousDemon Slayer Kimetsu no Yaiba scale statuewith its gravity-defying pose, I’m consistently impressed with how sharp they look.
Kaiju No. 8 Variant Cover Manga Volume 1 (Crunchyroll Exclusive) |$11.99$9.59 at CrunchyrollWhile it isn’t a massive saving, what makes this offer stand out is its exclusive variant cover. It’s not something you’ll find elsewhere, and because the price of the normal first volume is similar, this is a steal.
