Chainsaw Man episode 8 was one of the best episodes of the series and it will be what Chainsaw Man will be known for in the upcoming ages. The pacing of the anime is shown incredibly where you have you will see calm dialogues with debates on the small matter such as food for instance and later you will be witnessing things you did not expect at all.
Himeno was seen dying while trying to save Aki from the assassins who have contracts with the devils. Whereas Makime who was on her way to meet up with the higher-ups of the Devil Hunters organization was also shot to the back of the dead. Naturally, fans were wondering if Makima was dead in the Chainsaw Man Episdoe 8 but thanks to the latest episode of the series we have some new info on the matter, so let us discuss it in detail.
Chainsaw Man Episode 8 did not only show one major character getting shot but 3 of them including Denji, Himeno, and Makima. It seems like the Assassination attempt on the public safety division was planned and they were waiting for Makima to get away from Denji and use the perfect timing to get the chainsaw devil’s heart as it is one of their main motives.
With that being said, we only witnessed that Makima was shot in the back of her head, and fans if she is already dead in the series. So let’s wander the question in detail and also discuss the latest episdoe of the series as well.
Does Makima Die In Chainsaw Man Episode 8?
Makima was only shown in the Chainsaw Man Episode 8 for a while where we witnessed her journey to Kyoto to meet the higher-ups. She says that she is hungry and does not like to meet the higher-ups as they are intimidating. After witnessing her in remote action in Chainsaw Man Episdoe 9, I wonder how strong the higher-ups are.
Throughout Chainsaw Man Episode 8, we see that an unknown group of people are in play throughout Tokyo and as well as on the train where Makima is on. They are dressed up as nothing but civilians and after the members of the Public Safety Division.
On her way to Kyoto, Makima is shot in the back of her head by the remaining members of the public safety division as well as the assassins who are dressed up as civilians. After Makima is shot in the head, the assassins contact the other teams on the radio and say that they are good to go and then begin the whole incident at the cafe where Himeno also dies.
While Himeno is truly dead, the same isn’t for terrifying Makima as she is seen getting back on her feet in the latest episdoe of the series. So to answer the question, Does Makima Die In Chainsaw Man Episode 8? No, Makima does not die in Chainsaw Man and fans can watch her get up on her feet and even see her in the action for the first time in the series.
Chainsaw Man episode 9; Makima Shows Her Powers
Chainsaw Man episode 9, which was released on December 6th, showed us that Makima quickly got on her feet and killed the assassins as well. Upon arriving in Kyoto, the two devil hunters who were waiting for her are surprised to see her alive as they were informed that she was dead a few minutes ago.

She tells the that it is the assassin’s attempt to get Denji and quickly asks two members to arrange two things for her a shrine at the highest altitude and 10 prisoners who are sentenced to life or worse. Thus, we see her use her devil contract powers which are not explained but she asks the prisoner to take the name of the person she wants to kill and that person dies with the prisoner who said the name as well.
She explains this is the only thing that can be done from Kyoto and is on her way to Tokyo after being informed that the Special Division from 1 to 4 are being mixed with the remaining members and Makima is the head of the division. You can witness her in action by watching the latest episode of Chainsaw Man on Crunchyroll.
