Chainsaw Man has become a standout among the crowded field of new manga, charming fans and quickly transitioning into an anime adaptation.
The story centers on Denji, a young man burdened by the responsibility of paying off his deceased father’s debts to the Yakuza. His sole companion is Pochita, a devil dog who eventually sacrifices himself to merge with Denji, transforming him into a chainsaw devil hybrid.
Raised without guidance or formal education, Denji’s life is marked by a profound sense of loneliness, exacerbated by his desperate need for human connection and physical affection.
Despite gaining extraordinary powers, Denji’s journey remains tinged with a sense of longing and futility, especially in his attempts to fulfill his basic needs.
The anime adaptation, encompassing a single season, has left fans eagerly awaiting new developments in the manga series. Denji continues to maneuver his dangerous path in Tokyo, battling devils alongside allies while grappling with his newfound abilities.
In chapter 166 of Chainsaw Man, Denji finds himself in a challenging situation. Frustrated by his unfulfilled desires, he reluctantly agrees to visit a brothel with Katana Man and his companions.
Asa, deeply opposed to this idea, hopes to remove Pochita from Denji’s heart so he can lead a normal life. However, Denji’s turbulent past makes it clear that there’s no simple solution.
Upon arriving at the brothel, they discover it has been destroyed by fire, thwarting Denji’s physical needs once again and pushing him into despair. The chapter ends on a cliffhanger when Yoru possesses Asa’s body and offers a drastic solution: to remove the appendage that dominates Denji’s thoughts.
