Fortnite's Kaiju No. 8 Collaboration Divides Fans Over Anime's Popularity

Epic Games adds Kaiju No. 8-themed items to Fortnite, sparking mixed reactions about promoting lesser-known anime.

Fortnite's latest collaboration features Kaiju No. 8, a relatively new anime adapted from a manga by Naoya Matsumoto.
The in-game bundle includes 11 items such as character skins, pickaxes, back blings, and an emote, available for 3,800 V-Bucks.
Some fans criticize the collaboration, arguing that more popular anime like One Piece or Demon Slayer deserved the spotlight instead.
Supporters of the crossover highlight its potential to introduce Kaiju No. 8 to a broader audience and increase its recognition.
The collaboration aligns with Fortnite's ongoing theme of Japanese culture and follows the recent addition of Godzilla to the game.
