Part human, part devil, now he has to choose between joining the government agency responsible for hunting down and killing demons, or becoming the prey himself.

I was waiting to start the manga until the show released, and the second I finished the episode ended I picked up volume one! The volume sets the stage for an action-packed and emotionally charged journey as Denji navigates a life of hardship and makes a pact to become a devil hunter, wielding a chainsaw to combat the sinister forces lurking in the shadows. Once discovered, he works with Makima and a government based organization to help keep control of all of the demons/devils.It actually makes me think of Death Note, where women were portrayed as pretty much useless outside of in-the-way or eye candy.

He spent his entire life raised by violent criminals and outcasted from society, meaning he has no education, no manners, and has never even had a single interaction with the opposite sex or a parental figure to give him proper guidance and affection. That said, the first couple volumes don’t do a whole lot to dismiss this impression, and I completely understand those that are turned off by this. But please stick with it for a bit, and repeat with me: “Denji is 16 years old, at the mercy of raging hormones, and didn’t have the best childhood.On December 3rd, 2021, the Unofficial Weekly Shonen Jump Twitter page revealed that both part 2 of the manga and the anime adaptation would release in 2022. Upon her awakening, she's forcefully pulled into Yoru's quest of vengeance to the Chainsaw Man while having aimed to reclaim the Nuclear Weapons Devil from him. Denji’s a poor young man who’ll do anything for money, even hunting down devils with his pet devil Pochita.
