Design
As Kaiju No. 8, Kafka has a monstrous appearance. His face is that of a horned skull with sharp teeth that extend to the sides of his head. He has four prominent fangs and cracks around his eye sockets, which house two small, glowing, cyan eyes. His body is dark gray in color with glowing cyan streaks on his torso, arms, and feet. His legs are armored and segmented. He has a row of pointed spines running down the back of his neck and back.
When charging his attacks, Kafka's streaks extend to his neck, chest, and legs, and his glow becomes more prominent, with his eye sockets turning completely cyan.[3]
