Shonen anime Kaiju No. 8 will be premiering on Twitter, with the popular shonen manga dadaptation set to launch in April of next year.

In a new trailer, they announced that on top of its regular broadcast channels, Kaiju No. 8 would also be streaming on Twitter, with a promised simultaneous release for the anime.

This is obviously a very strange decision but not entirely unprecedented- Apple TV had previously debuted their series Silo on Twitter in much the same way, although that was limited to its first episode.

It’s not been confirmed if this has been the result of some sort of publishing deal with Twitter- earlier this month CEO Linda Yaccarino was seen asking Rockstar to natively upload their reveal trailer for GTA 6 on the platform instead, so it’s easy to see that the website is looking to be the source of more popular videos.

“@RockstarGames — gaming is one of our most popular topics,” she wrote. “Drop that trailer here — give the people on @X what they want!!”

Kaiju No. 8 is a pretty standard shonen anime, following a world under attack by Kaiju and a protagonist who obviously wants every kaiju slain.

Here’s the summary courtesy of TOHO Animation:

In a world plagued by threatening creatures known as Kaiju, Kafka Hibino aspired to enlist in the Japan Defense Force to defeat them. “Let’s wipe out the Kaiju together.” Kafka pledged to his childhood friend, Mina Ashiro.

Over time, life circumstances forced them to go their separate ways and caused him to abandon his lifelong ambition. He found himself employed by Monster Sweeper, Inc., a professional cleaning company that specializes in cleaning up the aftermath of Kaiju battles. Meanwhile, Mina Ashiro is now the Captain of the Defense Force’s 3rd Division.

As it stands, he is currently unworthy of fighting Kaiju alongside her. At work, Kafka crosses paths with the highly motivated Reno Ichikawa. Reno’s undying determination to join the Defense Force leaves no room for failure.

His perseverance reawakens Kafka’s ambition of standing next to Mina as they protect humanity from Kaiju together. A dream frozen by time, thawed by a burning promise But Kafka doesn’t know that an imminent Kaiju threat is unexpectedly approaching him.
