The God of High School, by Yongje Park, is a famous Korean manhwa webtoon that’s currently being made into an anime. It is gaining widespread popularity thanks to its fast-paced story and well-animated fight scenes.

Episode 8 of “God of High School” titled “Close/Friend,” was released on Monday. Unlike the previous episode, despite not showing the main trio in action, it managed to capture our attention by signaling the start of a great war. It also featured emotionally heavy moments, backstories, and amazing fights between other characters.

The next episode will show us the next fight in Nationals, as Jin Mori tries to save his grandfather, Jin Taejin.

1. Episode 9 Release Date

In the next episode, we will likely see Mori trying to help his grandfather which will kick off the war against Nox.

2. Episode 9 Preview & Predictions

By the end of episode 8, we saw Mori receiving a picture that showed his grandfather, Jin Taejin, being bound with heavy metal chains. With the declaration of war, who are the sides fighting, and what exactly is the purpose? Hopefully, it will all be explained soon.

What will happen in the next episode? Let’s find out!

I. Predictions

With South Chungcheong clinching victory in episode 8, Mira, Mori, and Daewi will be facing them in the next match, and it won’t be easy this time. As the Karate master is out of the equation, the result will depend upon the other two.

The next episode will probably show the trio learning charyeok and facing off against other teams. Furthermore, we will see Mori trying to help his grandfather. This event will snowball and build up to the actual fight between Nox and the protagonists. New characters will also be introduced, and episode 9 will probably be just as action-packed as the previous ones.

II. Spoilers

Episode 9 will likely cover chapters 60 to 68 of the Season 2 of God of High School webtoon. It will be action-packed, and there are three events that will likely happen.

First, right off the bat, we will be seeing Mori trying to rescue his grandfather with the help of a new character. However, to save Taejin, and reach in time for his match, he will have to hurry and be extremely cautious.

Secondly, the episode will feature Mira and Mori’s fight against the Juju team that is made up of imposters. We will see Mira using her charyeok for the very first time and Mori’s badass fighting skills. All in all, it will be an exciting battle.

The last event will be the introduction of one of Nox’s bishops, as all the sides move to acquire a key first.

4. Episode 8 Recap

Episode 8, titled “Close/Friend,” covered chapters 55 to 60 of the Season 2 of God of High School webtoon and began with the next match in the Nationals. We also saw the conclusion of the match between South Gyeongsang and North Jeolla.

With Taek Jegal, the former team leader going berserk, two of the Jeolla district’s members were fatally injured and barely escaped with their lives. The remaining one surrendered, and thus South Gyeongsang took the win. After the electric opening song, we directly saw the second match in Group A between South Jeolla and South Chungcheong, with the latter clinching victory.

This episode also revealed Jin Taejin’s abduction. As Mori was sitting alone, Ilpyo made his appearance, which resulted in a quick skirmish between them, ending in a draw. Later on, Mori asked him about the tiger symbol on his back, which resembled Taejin’s military uniform. In answer, we saw a flashback as Ilpyo reiterated his sob story, sorry, tragic past, where Taejin met and handed him a book containing Taekkyon secrets.

While both Mori and Ilpyo were reminiscing, Taek Jegal attacked them. It seems as if he shared some history with the Taekkyon user, and after a small showdown, he went his way. Soon after, Ilpyo took his leave too, as Mori sat there frustrated with his lack of power.

While this was happening, as commissioner Q confronted Park Mujin, we found out that what Nox killed were mere puppets, and Sim Bongsa’s family was safe. After this, the next scenes showed Daewi asking Q to teach him how to use Charyeok, and Mori desperately training himself. This was perfectly in accordance with the next scene, as the main antagonists for this arc – Nox, were shown to officially move out to destroy the “key.” With both the “heroes” and “villains” powering up, it was finally time to go to war.

However, this episode had not ended yet, as we saw Mira, Daewi, and Mori celebrating the latter’s birthday. With emotional flashbacks, hilarious moments, and classic “I want to fight you” declarations, this small celebration was a success.

While “God of High School” could have ended it here, they, of course, did not do so and trampled on our hearts once again. The last scene put a dampener on our moods, as Mori opened a letter and found the picture of his grandfather chained up.
