I only finished volume 1, but the ending of the volume really motivated me to continue reading further so I might purchase the other ones.

The story is quite upbeat and definitely fun to follow. However, it would sometimes maybe be a little better if it was more serious, because it dips way too often into typical 少年 tropes and the genuinely serious moments are discharged to quickly. Mood-wise it's similar to Black Clover - can be serious at times, but in general is not.

Language-wise the widespread use of slang and longer expressions which really could use furigana make things harder to understand. 怪獣8号 doesn't shy away from using less common (to non-native readers) words or acronyms which mostly natives would understand.
