Kafka and his friends manage to survive the turbulent National Defense Force selection exam. Seeing Kafka's bravery, Reno started to respect him…but for a short time, Kafka started to cry because he was worried about the outcome, and the sight of him tsukkomiing her made her think, “He was so brave just now.'' Viewers also responded in a friendly manner, saying, “It's so cute lol.''

Meanwhile, the test results arrive to the two. Then, the ceremony for appointing members of the defense force begins, and Kikoru and Reno are seen with expressions on their faces. Apparently Kafka isn't here. The appointment ceremony begins with worried voices from the viewers, such as “Kafka is not here (((((Σ(°Д° ))))))” and “There is no senior…”, but it was delayed. Kafka appears! Although he failed the exam, he was recommended by Hoshina, the vice commander of the 3rd unit. He seemed to sense Kafka's sincerity during the exam, and Kikoru and Reno. Not only that, but other friends will also become more active.

Because he was so moved by Mina Abyaku's words that he raised his voice, he received a penalty of 100 push-ups from the first day, and it seems that the distance between him and his friends has rapidly decreased.

After joining the defense force, Reno and his friends begin training. The members have a good relationship with each other, and the men seem to be learning from each other, with Iharu showing a sense of rivalry towards Reno, Kafka making fun of his middle-aged, slovenly figure, and even being questioned about the relationship between Kafka and Mina. trip! At the end, the scene of them having fun together got a huge response, with comments such as “Chunen gaining weight,'' “These guys are good friends,'' and “The bathing scene with all the boys is the best.''

In the training that continues after that, Kafka, who is still inferior in ability, studies late into the night in an effort to catch up with his friends. Hoshina, who understands the reason why Kafka is working so hard, supports Kafka's efforts, saying, “I won't give up the position next to Captain Ayo.'' And then, there is a siren announcing his first mission…!

While deepening the friendship with his friends, the final scene hints at the beginning of a tough mission, such as, “Wow, Kaiju No. 8, my heart is so hot'', “First mission in the middle of the night!'', and “This week has gone by so quickly.'' The 5th episode has received rave reviews such as,
