Until the industry closes these gaps—releasing a compilation film, a console game, and mass-market model kits—the search for Kaiju No. 8 will remain an act of detective work across a dozen different categories. For the fan, this is exhausting. For the scholar of media, it is a perfect case study of how a 21st-century IP survives on the edge of every category, never fully contained by any single one.
