Chainsaw Man follows the story of Denji, an impoverished young man who makes a contract that fuses his body with that of a dog-like devil named Pochita, granting him the ability to transform parts of his body into chainsaws. Denji eventually joins the Public Safety Devil Hunters, a government agency focused on fighting against devils whenever they become a threat to Japan. The second arc of the story focuses on Asa Mitaka, a high school student who enters into a contract with Yoru, the War Devil, who forces her to hunt down Chainsaw Man in order to reclaim the devils stolen from her.

In North America, the manga is licensed in English by Viz Media, for both print and digital release, and it is also published by Shueisha on the Manga Plus online platform. An anime television series adaptation produced by MAPPA was broadcast from October to December 2022.

In 2021, it won the 66th Shogakukan Manga Award in the shōnen category and won the Harvey Awards in the Best Manga category in 2021 and 2022. Chainsaw Man has been overall well received by critics, who have commended its storytelling, characters, dark humor, and have particularly highlighted its violent scenes within the context of the story.

SynopsisEdit

SettingEdit

The story is set in a world where Devils (悪魔, Akuma) are born from human fears. However, individuals called Devil Hunters (デビルハンター, Debiru Hantā) specialize in hunting and employing them. The events take place in 1997, in an alternate timeline where the Soviet Union still exists, and many events such as the Holocaust, AIDS and nuclear weapons have been erased from history due to the consumption of their respective Devils by the Chainsaw Devil. Humans can make contracts with Devils via a sacrifice, allowing them to use the Devil’s power. Devils can also become Fiends by possessing a human’s dead body.

PlotEdit

Part 1 – Public Safety ArcEdit

Denji is a young man trapped in poverty, working off his deceased father’s debt to the yakuza by working as a Devil Hunter, aided by Pochita, his canine companion and Chainsaw Devil. Denji is betrayed by the yakuza, who kill him for a contract with the Zombie Devil. Pochita makes a contract with Denji, merging with him as a human-devil Hybrid, under the condition that Denji live out his dreams of living a basic life such as having bread with jam, or falling in love with a woman and being intimate with one. By pulling on a cord in his chest, Denji then becomes Chainsaw Man and massacres the yakuza. In the aftermath, he joins a team of governmental Devil Hunters, the Public Safety Division, led by Makima, who assigns him to kill the Gun Devil. Denji fights through multiple enemies who seek Chainsaw Man’s power, and trains with his partner, Power the Blood Fiend, under the veteran Devil Hunter Kishibe.

Makima later turns out to be the Control Devil, ultimately seeking to control Pochita, as he has the power to erase evil concepts from the world by consuming their Devils. Makima almost defeats the Gun Devil, until it retreats inside the dead body of Denji’s partner, Aki Hayakawa, forcing Denji to kill him in self-defense. Later, she kills Power in front of Denji, causing him to turn catatonic and turn his body over to Pochita.

However, Kishibe organizes a raid to rescue Denji, and with his help as well as a frightened former teammate named Kobeni Higashiyama and a fragment of Power’s blood, Denji kills Makima. Kishibe later reveals a reborn Control Devil, now a little girl named Nayuta. He asks Denji to look after her, and Pochita supports this mission in Denji’s dreams. Denji begins attending high school while also fighting Devils as a vigilante.

Part 2 – School ArcEdit

Asa Mitaka is an introverted high school student attending East High School, who has trouble finding her place in society following her mother’s death to the Typhoon Devil. One day, after accidentally killing her class’ pet Chicken Devil Bucky, she is confronted by the Class President who has made a contract with the Justice Devil. She attempts to kill Asa, but Yoru, the War Devil appears in the form of a bird and makes a contract with Asa, inhabiting her body and making her a living Fiend host, under the condition that she kills Chainsaw Man. After her quick vengeance, Asa seeks to find Chainsaw Man, though she and Yoru have differing goals: Asa wants Yoru to leave her body, while Yoru wants to reclaim the Nuclear Weapons Devil which was consumed by Pochita. They join the school’s Devil Hunter Club, where they are partnered with Hirofumi Yoshida (a former coworker of Denji who is revealed to be attending Fourth East) and Yuko, an outgoing student who befriends her.

Meanwhile, Denji has adapted to his new life as a normal high school student, also attending Fourth East, while using his newfound superhero fame to attract women. Hirofumi keeps tabs on him under an unknown mission. Knowing that Denji is still desperate for a girlfriend, Hirofumi introduces Denji to Asa, who he attempts to reveal to her that he is Chainsaw Man, but fails.

Asa visits Yuko and later discovers that she also formed a contract with the Justice Devil and plans on enacting revenge on everyone who bullied Asa. Using Yoru’s devil abilities, Asa confronts Yuko, but accidentally kills her. At that moment, a stranger walks up to her and revives Yuko for «her little sister», turning her into a giant devil rampaging through the school. Denji attacks Yuko, but she escapes. The now-disfigured Yuko bids farewell to Asa and goes on the run for help, but a mysterious impostor posing as Chainsaw Man kills her.

Following the incident, Asa and Yoru bump into and meet Haruka Iseumi, the President of both the Devil Hunter’s Club and the Student Council, who has taken interest in her and the stranger. Haruka tells Asa and Yoru that he is Chainsaw Man, showing them the dangling cord attached to his chest as proof. Believing him, Asa is then made by Yoru to go find someone she can kill and turn into a weapon. Spotting Denji to be the perfect target, she then goes on a date with him in order to kill him and turn him into a weapon. During the date, while she is alone, the stranger suddenly appears behind her and the stranger then reveals herself to be the Hunger/Famine Devil or «Fami», who then isolates her, bringing Yoru and herself outside and seemingly assists her in her quest to turn Denji into a weapon as the two, along with Hirofumi and Haruka, are trapped by the returning Eternity Devil in an aquarium. During this time period, Asa learns that Haruka is not the impostor, and is instead a big fan of Chainsaw Man. Asa kills the Eternity Devil, and Yoru attempts to turn Denji into a weapon. To Asa and Yoru’s surprise, this fails.

Later, Denji takes Asa to his house, where he explains the rules there, including not to make out with him. Yoru immediately possesses Asa and makes out with Denji, causing an arriving Nayuta to use her Control Devil powers on her. This leaves Denji shocked as Nayuta tells Denji that she turned Yoru into a pet as she does not like Asa’s «scent», thinking Yoru is trying to take Denji away from her, only agreeing to turn her back if Denji lets her have ice-cream everyday and he does not have intimate moments with Asa. Nayuta tells Denji she is going to erase Asa’s and Yoru’s memories leading from the date up to Nayuta using her powers on her, which he agrees with.

Later, outside the high school, Yoru tells Asa that Denji might not be into her saying they might’ve been stood up. Asa takes this as a positive, as she is thankful he «forgot» but she goes to add she desires human touch as she was confined with Denji for too long but negates her affection for Denji on hormones and that her time would be better used in solitude, studying. She is then approached by Hirofumi as he asks her if she could keep him company. Both talk in the Devil Hunter club room and Asa notes that Hirofumi is similar to her, seemingly hinting that he likes her, but instead, Hirofumi asks her to stay away from Denji. Nayuta notices that there is a scent of a particularly nasty Devil nearby, and encourages Denji to investigate as Chainsaw Man. As a depressed Asa is walking back home, a dead body falls in front of her, as multiple residents of her apartment building come outside.

ProductionEdit

Despite the series’ violence and dark humor, Tatsuki Fujimoto always wanted to serialize in Weekly Shōnen Jump, but he had the feeling that his work would be «buried» if he had made a «Jump-like manga», so he tried to retain much of his individuality as a creator while making only the structure and characters Jump-like. Fujimoto also said that, despite its success in the magazine, he wanted to write the second part of the series on Shōnen Jump+, because he wanted to do a completely different series from the first part. According to him, there is not much of a difference in working between Weekly Shōnen Jump and Shōnen Jump+, explaining that there were a few depictions that got stopped during the rough draft stage, but he was allowed to do anything he wanted regarding the logic of the story.[5]

Fujimoto said that he took inspiration from various works. During the serialization of Chainsaw Man, Fujimoto said that he was too busy, but he watched as many new things as he could and borrowed various elements from what he saw.[5] On Twitter, he stated that he was a fan of the 2016 film trilogy Kizumonogatari, and that the trilogy’s final battle, shown in Part 3: Reiketsu, inspired the final battle of the first part of Chainsaw Man.[6] He also described the series as a «wicked FLCL» and a «pop Abara[7] Fujimoto had various elements from the series planned from the beginning, while other things were added as it progressed. He did not have specific plans to bring payoff to the meaningful-sounding words and things that felt «off», adding that he left various things vague to make the series’ second part easier to do.[5]

Regarding the anime adaptation of the series, Fujimoto stated that he talked to the people handling it and he was comfortable leaving things to them.[5] When the anime series was officially announced, Fujimoto commented: «Chainsaw Man is like a copycat of Dorohedoro and Jujutsu Kaisen, and the studio of Dorohedoro and Jujutsu Kaisen will produce its anime!? I have nothing to say! Please do it!»[8] According to the manga’s editor, Shihei Lin, Fujimoto is heavily involved in the production of the anime series, stating: «Fujimoto-san has seen all the Chainsaw Mans pitch documents, story structure, scripts, and even the storyboards. He has continued to be in close contact with MAPPA’s anime team.» MAPPA producer, Makoto Kimura, also commented that Fujimoto involvement extended to the casting, planning, and music, because the staff wanted the anime to capture as much of the manga’s original vision as possible, including the violence and gore. MAPPA approached Shueisha with the pitch for the project.[9]

Critical receptionEdit

Chainsaw Man has been overall well received by critics. James Beckett of Anime News Network ranked the first volume as a B+. Beckett commented: «[Chainsaw Man is] goofy, kinky, dark, and bizarre, which is already the kind of tonal mishmash I’m generally down for in my art,» praising as well its compelling world-building and character development, adding that the volume «earns plenty of goodwill by committing to its surprisingly earnest and charming brand of ferocious bloodletting.»[145] Nicholas Dupree from the same website commented: «[i]t’s a bizarre, unpredictable, and undeniably unique thrill ride, and love it or hate it, there’s nothing else quite like it.»[146] Hannah Collins of Comic Book Resources gave the series a positive review, stating: «Chainsaw Man bears all the hallmarks of a standard supernatural action series, but its quieter moments are where its dark heart beats fastest.»[147] Polygons Julia Lee gave the series a positive review, commenting: «Chainsaw Man is considered one of Shonen Jumps best new series, and for good reason. The graphic rip-and-tear fights, paired with a unique and funny story about devils makes for one great manga.»[148] Sheena McNeil of Sequential Tart gave the first volume a 9/10. McNeil stated: «I did not think I was going to enjoy this manga. I’m glad I was wrong!» She noted that the series has similar elements from Army of Darkness, Devilman, Dorohedoro and inspiration from various devil-hunting series, recommending it to fans of those works.[149]

Anna Neatrour of Manga Report gave a positive review to the first volume, calling its monster fighting, «buckets of gore», and humor «plenty amusing,» and calling Denji an «incredibly damaged but potentially powerful hero.»[150] Reviewing the first volume, Danica Davidson of Otaku USA called the series «a little creepy» and «downright bizarre,» adding however, that it is «a bloody, action-packed shonen with some heart showing through the weirdness, and it’s been very successful in Japan.»[151] Following her «read-a-thoning» of the series, Katherine Dacey of The Manga Critic commented that she finished it with a «grudging respect for Fujimoto’s excessive, ridiculous creation, which entertained and repelled me in equal measure. Your mileage will vary.»[152] Ian Wolf of Anime UK News gave the first volume a 6/10. Wolf wrote that the main feature of the series is the action sequences, but criticized the lack of depth in writing, concluding: «Chainsaw Man has some things going for it and hopefully may well build up from a promising start.»[153]

Fujimoto’s art style has also been commended. Collins praised Fujimoto’s penmanship, stating that the «thickly-sketched lines on individual characters and still moments convey the rough edges of [its] world.»[147] Dupree lauded the series’ art style, stating: «as the Devil enemies of the story grow more powerful, his imagination for bizarre, abstract, and genuinely unsettling visual storytelling reaches heights I’ve never seen in a Jump series before.»[146] Beckett called the character designs and general linework «a bit generic at first glance,» but that when «the carnage comes flooding in,» the series «has a clarity of style and consistency of vision that can be wondrous to behold.»[145] McNeil said that the character designs, other than Pochita and Chainsaw Man, are «not memorable,» but that the art «really shines for the creepy Devils, the action, and especially the gore.»[149] Regarding the devils’ designs, Dacey wrote that some are «uninspired» and that the most memorable ones are «clearly designed to elicit an appreciative ‘ewww«.[152] Wolf stated that the art of the series «feels better than its writing,» adding that visually, the action and fighting make the manga appealing.[153]

ThemesEdit

Various reviewers have commented the use of violence and gory scenes within the context of the story. Dupree wrote that the «irreverent tone and deliciously gory violence» are elements that make the series «really stand out from the get-go.»[146] Collins wrote that the gory scenes, instead of being gratuitous, make the story feel «refreshingly unfiltered.»[147] McNeil commented that the series is «wonderfully absurd. It’s funny, gorey [sic], and violent, but also has an interesting bit of humanity at its core.»[149] Davinson called it «casually gruesome and violent,» but that it fits with its theme.[151] Lee wrote: «Chainsaw Man is gory. Extremely gory,» adding that these scenes make the series different from other shōnen series, calling them «pretty gross,» but «fitting for a dark manga about slashing devils down with a chainsaw.»[148] Dacey called the series a «blood-and-testosterone-soaked battle manga,» commenting that its main appeal is the «outrageous displays of gore and violence,» adding as well that Fujimoto «does his utmost to push the boundaries of good taste.»[152] Beckett wrote that the «delightfully ridiculous and bloody» premise runs with it in «all sorts of fascinating directions,» adding however, that its reveling in crude humor and violence could be off-putting to some readers.[145]

Regarding the characters, Adi Tantimedh of Bleeding Cool called them «sad, broken people who live outside the norms of society and haven’t learned basic social skills,» adding as well that the series’ subtext is about «people getting abused, degraded, dehumanized, objectified, literally becoming objects.» He concluded: «[s]ociety is to blame for degrading people into tools and objects; these mangas [sic] seem to be saying, though they never outright blame Capitalism or the alienating repressiveness of Japanese society. The result is one of the more unique manga out there.»[154] Collins commented that the series has a premise «loosely» comparable to Jujutsu Kaisen, adding, however, that Denji might fit the mold of a shōnen protagonist on paper, but that the mold is «only there to be broken,» comparing his «life on the fringes of society» to a «Dickensian parable about the plight of the working class.»[147] Dacey called Denji «a more honest shonen hero than the typical Jump lead; he thinks and acts like a real teenage boy, right down to his self-absorption and total objectification of women,» adding that she could not say she «ever warmed to Denji as a lead character.»[152] Lee commented that the series has an «interestingly goofy contrast between the characters and what’s going on,» adding that Denji’s simple mind and «kind-of-horny instincts» can get tiring at times, but it does not make the series bad, and with the introduction of the «extremely interesting side characters,» like Power and Makima, the story «takes a turn for the better.»[148]

Its way of handling comedy has also been commented. Tantimedh stated that the series has a «unique sense of deadpan comic timing» that «makes the series unique,» adding as well that the series distinguishes itself for its slapstick comedy and that a «deadly earnest» tone might have made the series unreadable.[154] Beckett said that when he read the premise, he took the series at face value as a «goofy nonsense comic, a parody of shonen manga that primarily exists to push out page-after-page of gross-out gags and gory action,» also calling it «a mishmash of raunchy teen sex comedies, Hellboy, and The Evil Dead[145] Dupree stated that the «crass, crude, and purposefully lowbrow» humor is one of its defining characteristics, adding that there are multiple jokes where it feels like half the punchline is that the series, «in all its gleefully nihilistic indulgence,» was published in the same magazine as other «bleedingly sincere and family-friendly» titles like One Piece or My Hero Academia.[146] Neatrour said: «[t]here’s a level of off-kilter humor in Chainsaw Man that I find endearing,» and that it also has «plenty of juvenile humor.»[150] Davinson commented that the humor of the series mainly revolves around Denji trying to get a girlfriend.[151] Wolf wrote that «the ridiculousness of the story helps to add comedy to the whole thing,» although, he called the humor «rather base at best.»[153]

Reviewers have also commented the emotional aspects of the series. Dacey discussed its unexpected moments of «genuine pathos,» talking about the interactions between Denji and Pochita, noting as well parallels to Denji’s relationship with Makima.[152] Davidson also stated that the emotional part of the story is about the love between Denji and Pochita.[151] Dupree wrote that the series’ «bombastic, borderline nihilistic maelstrom of gore and dick jokes» is in part a reaction to the «absurd and illogical world it takes place in,» adding that the series has a «proudly beating heart. Perhaps a cynical heart, but one that nonetheless sympathizes with the struggle to find meaning or solace in a cruel and unpredictable world.»[146] Reviewing the series’ 97th and last chapter published in Weekly Shōnen Jump, Reiichi Narima of Real Sound commented that Denji’s growth through loss is a storytelling more related to seinen manga than shōnen manga, adding that he was «deeply moved» by the inclusion of this kind of stories in the magazine, ultimately calling it a masterpiece and concluding: «at the core of bloody violence, there was a boy’s sad love story.»[155]

Awards and nominationsEdit

AnimeEdit

On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, the first season of Chainsaw Man holds an approval rating of 97% based on 89 reviews, with an average rating of 8/10. The site’s critics consensus reads, «Distinguished by its rip-roaring animation and serrated sense of humor, Chainsaw Man is an action anime with teeth.»[170] Mónica Marie Zorrilla of Inverse described Chainsaw Man as the standout of «demon-fighting anime» in 2022. She also praised Denji’s contrast to other shōnen protagonists in his simpler motivations for «girls and food».[171] Rafael Motamayor of IGN praised Chainsaw Mans cinematography, character dynamics and approach to its emotional moments. He also described it as a successful mix of «workplace comedy, horror, and action series», in contrast to most shōnen. IGN and Polygon praised the action scenes and its sudden tonal shifts from emotional scenes to «juvenile, 2000s sex comedy humor», while Polygon also praised its twelve different ending scenes.[172][173]

    Review

    amazing work

    This was really good ep, it had amazing animation and amazing storytelling. The voice acting was so good, I have been waiting for so long for this to come out as an anime so when it did, I wasn’t disappointed, i was super impressed and so happy that chainsaw man is finally here. If chainsaw man keeps this up it can may be the number one show this year, but there is a lot of competition. Although this episode was amazing it wasn’t perfect at any means, the cg wasn’t that impressive and I thought they used way to much of CGI and I’m not that big fan of the 3d.im not saying that that it is bad but I’m saying that I was expecting better in the cg, and another think is sometimes in the anime the quality wasn’t all that god it was like it was 720 but i had it in 1080 that was strange, I also wished the background was bitterer and cleaner and have better lighting I found that in some shots the lighting was a bit bland but over all I would give the first ep 8,4.

    Chainsaw Man (チェンソーマン Chensōman?) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Fujimoto Tatsuki. The series is divided into two parts, the Public Safety Saga (officially referred to as an arc) and the Academy Saga. The Public Safety Saga, which contains 97 chapters, follows Denji as the main protagonist. The ongoing Academy Saga introduces a new main protagonist, Asa Mitaka.

    Serialization of the Public Safety Saga began on December 3, 2018 and concluded on December 14, 2020. An anime adaptation by studio MAPPA adapted the first part of the series up to the Katana Man arc in its first season.

    The Academy Saga began serialization on July 13, 2022. The series alternates between a weekly and biweekly schedule, with biweekly chapters usually given longer page lengths.

    Profile

    Chainsaw Man was serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump from 2018 until 2020, when it then transferred to Shonen Jump+ online magazine, where the current story continues. The series is currently collected in 11 Tankōbon volumes.

    The series has over 15 million copies in print, and the seventh best-selling manga in 2021 with over 5 million copies sold. It is also licensed in English France, Italy, Mexico, Brazil, Spain, Thailand, Poland, Germany, Argentina, Taiwan, South Korea, Russia, and in Vietnam.

    The series’ anime adaptation began airing in October 2022 and finished airing its first 12-episode season in December of the same year. Two PVs and two visuals were released for it.

    Other media for this series include a novel titled Chainsaw Man: Buddy Stories that was released in November 2021 written by Sakaku Hishikawa, with illustrations by Tatsuki Fujimoto.

    Plot

    Part 1 — Public Safety Saga

    When his father died, Denji was stuck with a huge debt and no way to pay it back. Thanks to a Devil dog he saved named Pochita, he’s able to survive through odd jobs and killing Devils for the Yakuza. Pochita’s chainsaw powers come in handy against these powerful demons. When the Yakuza betrays him and he’s killed by the Zombie Devil, Pochita sacrifices himself to save his former master. Denji is then reborn as a Devil-Human hybrid known as Chainsaw Man.

    After his transformation, he’s quickly recruited by Makima to join the Public Safety Devil Hunters under threat of extermination now that he’s technically a Devil. Now that he’s living comfortably for the first time in his life, Denji struggles to determine his dreams and form meaningful relationships while killing Devils and working alongside other eccentric Devil Hunters.

    Part 2 — Academy Saga

    Following the death of her mother, Fourth East highschooler Asa Mitaka isolates herself from society, fearing that she would never lead a stable normal life. Her life changes forever when one day, a student in contract with the Justice Devil kills her, Yoru the War Devil arrives, saving and going on a contract with her. Now Asa has been reborn as the War Devil’s vessel while sharing her abilities as a Human-Fiend hybrid.

    Upon her awakening, she’s quickly pulled into Yoru’s quest of vengeance to the Chainsaw Man while having aimed to reclaim the Nuclear Weapons Devil from him. Aiming to separate from Yoru at all costs, Asa goes on a quest to locate and investigate the Chainsaw Man and mysteries around her school while meeting new friends and foes alike.

    Meanwhile, sometime after leaving the Public Safety, Denji has now started to go to high school, while he also continues to exterminate devils. He still wishes to get a girlfriend and often tries to «accidentally» expose his identity as the Chainsaw Man.

    Chainsaw Man (チェンソーマン Chensōman?) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Fujimoto Tatsuki. The series is divided into two parts, the Public Safety Saga (officially referred to as an arc) and the Academy Saga. The Public Safety Saga, which contains 97 chapters, follows Denji as the main protagonist. The ongoing Academy Saga introduces a new main protagonist, Asa Mitaka.

    Serialization of the Public Safety Saga began on December 3, 2018 and concluded on December 14, 2020. An anime adaptation by studio MAPPA adapted the first part of the series up to the Katana Man arc in its first season.

    The Academy Saga began serialization on July 13, 2022. The series alternates between a weekly and biweekly schedule, with biweekly chapters usually given longer page lengths.

    Profile

    Chainsaw Man was serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump from 2018 until 2020, when it then transferred to Shonen Jump+ online magazine, where the current story continues. The series is currently collected in 11 Tankōbon volumes.

    The series has over 15 million copies in print, and the seventh best-selling manga in 2021 with over 5 million copies sold. It is also licensed in English France, Italy, Mexico, Brazil, Spain, Thailand, Poland, Germany, Argentina, Taiwan, South Korea, Russia, and in Vietnam.

    The series’ anime adaptation began airing in October 2022 and finished airing its first 12-episode season in December of the same year. Two PVs and two visuals were released for it.

    Other media for this series include a novel titled Chainsaw Man: Buddy Stories that was released in November 2021 written by Sakaku Hishikawa, with illustrations by Tatsuki Fujimoto.

    Plot

    Part 1 — Public Safety Saga

    When his father died, Denji was stuck with a huge debt and no way to pay it back. Thanks to a Devil dog he saved named Pochita, he’s able to survive through odd jobs and killing Devils for the Yakuza. Pochita’s chainsaw powers come in handy against these powerful demons. When the Yakuza betrays him and he’s killed by the Zombie Devil, Pochita sacrifices himself to save his former master. Denji is then reborn as a Devil-Human hybrid known as Chainsaw Man.

    After his transformation, he’s quickly recruited by Makima to join the Public Safety Devil Hunters under threat of extermination now that he’s technically a Devil. Now that he’s living comfortably for the first time in his life, Denji struggles to determine his dreams and form meaningful relationships while killing Devils and working alongside other eccentric Devil Hunters.

    Part 2 — Academy Saga

    Following the death of her mother, Fourth East highschooler Asa Mitaka isolates herself from society, fearing that she would never lead a stable normal life. Her life changes forever when one day, a student in contract with the Justice Devil kills her, Yoru the War Devil arrives, saving and going on a contract with her. Now Asa has been reborn as the War Devil’s vessel while sharing her abilities as a Human-Fiend hybrid.

    Upon her awakening, she’s quickly pulled into Yoru’s quest of vengeance to the Chainsaw Man while having aimed to reclaim the Nuclear Weapons Devil from him. Aiming to separate from Yoru at all costs, Asa goes on a quest to locate and investigate the Chainsaw Man and mysteries around her school while meeting new friends and foes alike.

    Meanwhile, sometime after leaving the Public Safety, Denji has now started to go to high school, while he also continues to exterminate devils. He still wishes to get a girlfriend and often tries to «accidentally» expose his identity as the Chainsaw Man.

    Summary

    Chainsaw Man manga shortly: this is the story of a 16-year-old gay named Danji.  Her resides in a land full of demons and monsters. The state and government organizations are fighting them. Denji has a hard life. He has been living in poverty, starves, and doesn’t go to school. So, his wish  is to eat enough , to have a roof over his head and to be able to study. But his mother died a long time ago. His drunkard father leaves his son enormous debts to the yakuza after his death. He has to do any sort of work, including destroying  demons. He has a loyal friend, Pocita. He’s a tiny demon with a saw sticking out of his head.

    He’ll pay for this friendship with his life.  For his affair with the little demon they murdered him by cutting him into pieces. Then his friend, a small chainsaw demon, enters Danji’s dead body and brings him back to life. He replaces his heart. Now Danji can live a new lifetime, just as he had dreamed.  So, Danji now possesses tremendous strength, speed and stamina, the ability to regenerate and, most importantly, cutting saws that grow out of his body.

    Chainsaw Man brief description: 

    This is when he meets Makima, the ruler of the state agency of hunters. She invites him to get a job and provides him with a home and partners. His job is to hunt demons. On the surface, Makima is intelligent, shrewd, and even kind to her subordinates. She  gives Denji the task of finding and killing the legendary Demon Cannon, who has destroyed and ravaged a huge territory.

    In fact, Makima is the most important evil of the manga. She uses her manipulation to kill everyone Denji cared about after defeating the demon.  Makima wants to kill Denji. He has to kill her to stop the series of senseless murders she started. For all of Denji’s adventures and what the future holds for him, read the Chainsaw Man.

    Briefly about Chainsaw Man Manga.

    Chainsaw Man Manga about:  I’ve always dreamed of ordinary life: a warm bed, toasts with jam in the morning, walks on dates with my girlfriend and smile every day. But everything changed with my father’s death – now, Pocitta, we will kill! – With these words, Dengi together with his chain saw dog Pochetta goes on another contract, because they are demon hunters.

    Every day they kill for the money that Dengi has to give to one Yakuza, otherwise the late father’s debt will have to give his own life. But what awaits Dengi when he returns the debt: will he live a normal life or will he continue to save the world from demons? Or maybe fate has its own plans for the fate of the hero?

    Chainsaw Man manga reading will be a real adventure for you on the best Manga website. So, on MANGAEFFECT you have a great opportunity to Read manga online in English.

    Very clear right comic, I recommend it to everyone without exception, everything in it is beautiful, nowhere is it drawn out, the hero is turned inside out, and his personality itself is beautiful, makes you think. about the fact that sometimes we too are just tools in someone else’s hands. It’s amazing MC, it’s like he acts and thinks like an animal in the beginning, but over time the story of his emotions unfolds terrifyingly.

    In essence of course it reminds me of a Dorohedoro fanfic. I think it’s hard to argue here, anyone who has read Dorohedoro would notice that the author of Chainsaw was inspired by that work. But, first of all, there is nothing wrong with that, and secondly, in fact, there is an advantage relative to Dorohedoro – not a tight, clear narrative that does not give a second to breathe. The entire work read in a day or a day and a half almost without a peep.

    Chainsaw Man Manga.

    The ending was just a f**king mess, it’s not describable with just words. I didn’t expect that at all, the manga is very interesting and exciting. Magical Battle and Chainsaw Man are like brothers. Both have a soft-comic beginning and just crazy thrash at the end. Just like in the real world – anyone can die in an instant. And that’s regardless of who they are. The author from the beginning wanted to take the clichéd Seinen plot and place it in the real world.

    The manga is good, the plot is interesting, the drawing is peculiar. But that doesn’t mean it’s bad. The only downside is that in my opinion the author just blows some of the characters away. Score: 9/10. But if you don’t take into account the character flubbing, then 10/10. In short, if Makima thinks she is stronger than someone, that subject will become her slave. But in Danji’s case, Makima thought he was stronger than she was. I’m not entirely sure about Makima’s motives.

    The Chainsaw Man is a highbrow work that I intended to read in order to keep up with what’s going on in the world of the Russian manga community. And I was taken aback as soon as I started reading it, as I tried my best to find something in the pages for which Fujimoto Tatsuki’s work is beloved by a large number of its readers.

    The artwork? No. The main character? No. Plot? Funny. The girls? We’ve seen better. And, I’ll admit, I gave up on “The Chainsaw Man” and went on to other works, because I just couldn’t find anything in it worth wasting my time on. Everything seemed trivial, trite, and clichéd, and the GG evoked no emotion other than a mute question as to why this particular weird guy is the main face throughout the story. Even Makima, who everyone loved so much for some reason, didn’t get me at all. And so it was until I came upon…
