Special Early Screening at Anime Expo 2026
Fans attending Anime Expo 2026 in Los Angeles got a special treat. The convention hosted a panel titled “Kaiju Girl Caramelise: The Kaiju-Sized?! North American Premiere” on July 3, 2026, from 2:45 PM to 3:35 PM at the Los Angeles Convention Center.
The panel featured a screening of Episode 1 and the North American premiere of Episode 2. Attendees got an early look at the second episode before its official streaming release. The event also included exclusive giveaways and interactive experiences at the Pony Canyon booth.
What Happened in Kaiju Girl Caramelise Episode 1
The first episode of Kaiju Girl Caramelise introduced viewers to the main character Kuroe Akaishi, a high school girl who has spent her life avoiding others. She suffers from a rare condition that causes her body to transform when her emotions spike.
Kuroe has always kept people at a distance. The episode showed a flashback of her childhood when she confessed to a boy she liked, and her hand transformed in the middle of the conversation. That moment branded her as something strange, and she has been isolated ever since.
Her world changes when Arata Minami, the most popular boy in school, starts showing interest in her. Arata is kind, attractive, and does not seem to care about the social rules that keep others away from Kuroe. He stands up for her when bullies target her, and his attention makes Kuroe’s feelings grow stronger.
The problem is that every time Kuroe feels strong emotions, her body starts to change. The episode showed this happening in small ways at first, with her hands shifting and spikes appearing on her back. By the middle of the episode, she transformed completely into a giant kaiju named Harugon.
The episode did not hide this transformation from the world. Instead of keeping it a secret, the show revealed the kaiju to everyone, raising the stakes for the rest of the series. Now Kuroe has to deal with her feelings for Arata while knowing that any emotional moment could turn her into a giant monster in front of everyone.
The episode also introduced the rules of Kuroe’s condition. She tries to control her emotions by listening to death metal and thinking about cute foods. But when Arata is around, keeping calm becomes almost impossible.
What to Expect in Kaiju Girl Caramelise Episode 2
Episode 2 will likely continue the story right after Kuroe’s first full transformation. The premiere ended with the kaiju reveal, so the second episode will probably show the aftermath of that event. How will Arata react to seeing Kuroe as Harugon? Will the public find out who the kaiju really is?
The series is described as a romantic comedy with a unique twist. The manga has been popular since 2018, with over 300,000 copies in circulation. The anime adaptation is produced by LIDENFILMS, with Teruyuki Omine directing and Yuniko Ayana handling series composition.
The voice cast includes Hikari Senga as Kuroe Akaishi and Daishi Kajita as Arata Minami. Other cast members include Akira Sekine, Haruka Shiraishi, Kotono Mitsuishi, Katsuyuki Konishi, and Eriko Matsui.
Theme Songs for Kaiju Girl Caramelise
The anime features two theme songs that have been released globally. The opening theme is “KAIJU GIRL” by METANICK, which became available on digital platforms on July 1, 2026. The ending theme is “OtomenoHonki” by HoneyWorks feat. HaKoniwalily, scheduled for release on July 8, 2026.
Both songs match the show’s tone, switching between tender romance and chaotic monster action.
Manga and Source Material
Kaiju Girl Caramelise is based on the manga by Spica Aoki, which has been serialized in Monthly Comic Alive since February 2018. The manga has released nine tankobon volumes as of December 2025, with a tenth volume scheduled for publication in Japan on July 22, 2026. Yen Press releases the English version of the manga.
The manga’s popularity has grown steadily, and the anime adaptation is expected to bring even more attention to the series. The story follows the classic structure of a shojo romance but adds the unexpected element of kaiju transformations.
Future Convention Screenings
Beyond Anime Expo, Kaiju Girl Caramelise will appear at other major conventions. Otakon in Washington, D.C., from July 31 to August 2, 2026, will screen Episode 5. AnimagiC in Germany will premiere Episode 6 in Europe. These screenings give fans in different regions the chance to see episodes early.
