Chainsaw Man Chapter 137, Chu Chu Lovely Mini Mini Mura Mura Review: What is Going on?

I honestly don’t even know where to begin with this review.
I know I have said that Tatsuki Fujimoto is an unpredictable writer but seriously I don’t even know what’s happening any more and I still somehow enjoy it.
Chapter 137 of Chainsaw Man, “Chu Chu Lovely Mini Mini Mura Mura” picks up right from where the previous chapter left off, with the creepy girl grabbing Denji’s crotch without his consent.
The girl offers to have sex with Denji if he licks the dead Devil in the theatre.
After she said this, I felt there was a 50/50 chance of Denji refusing and Denji accepting.
We know from what Denji has said in Part Two that he wants to actually think for himself and not be manipulated.
However, well…. this is Denji we’re talking about and the guy does want to have sex pretty badly.
This is why I was extremely proud to see Denji immediately call the girl out as sketchy, rightly calling her offer out as way too convenient.
He goes on to say that he is matured and that he will no longe mindlessly obey someone, so the girl should go and have some respect for herself aaaannnndddd it’s all in his head.
Yep, turns out that Denji standing up for himself was just his imagination, since he pretty much immediately starts licking the Devil’s head for sex while the girl laughs at him.
He even sucks the Devil’s head like a popsicle when she asks him to, which was just sadly pathetic to look at.
It was honestly disappointing to see Denji revert to this, although this is not a criticism because Denji has developed enough to know he shouldn’t be mindlessly obeying this creepy girl, even if he still does.
Afterwards, the girl takes Denji to a karaoke place, which Fujimoto literally names after himself.
The girl says that she has a friend who works there so they will turn a blind eye to her and Denji having sex in one of the rooms.
Denji is eager to get started but before that the girl wants to sing a song.
She starts the karaoke machine and starts singing what looks like a whole lot of nonsense.
Imagine my surprise when I look it up afterwards and found out this was actually a song, which the chapter is named after, “Chu Chu Lovely Muni Muni Mura Mura Purin Purin Boron Nururu Rero Rero” by Maximum the Hormone.
Listening to the song, I also cannot help but thing that it is perfect for the absolutely Fujimoto typical insanity that happens next.
While the girl is singing the song, a man with a baseball bat enters and attempts to kill Denji.
Denji beats him but then another man enters, and then another, and then another.
Men are literally lining up outside the door to enter and attempt to beat Denji to death with baseball bats.
Denji eventually exits the room and beats up all of his attackers, actually looking pretty pleased with himself.
Although, this may just be some sort of self-depricating smile because here is yet another woman trying to kill him, as the creepy girl emerges from the room, baseball bat in hand, looking ready to fight him too as she declares that this looks funner than singing a second verse.
So, as expected, the girl making an advance on Denji was a trap.
I do wonder if the people Denji beat up were hired to do so or if the girl was controlling them, and is a Devil.
Also, if the girl was sent by Yoshida, does this mean this assassination attempt was set up by him?
Maybe Yoshida thought Denji might try to be Chainsaw Man again so tried to have him killed?
But if Yoshida is behind this then it is rather weird that he chose such a poor assassination method.
I mean, Denji has killed multiple powerful Devils at this point so a bunch of guys with baseball bats would obviously not succeed in killing him.
No matter what the meaning behind the attack on Denji was, Chapter 137 of Chainsaw Man was another completley insane chapter.
I had no idea what was even happening when I first read it.
We will have to wait two weeks so the next chapter can give us context.
But, knowing Fujimoto, I would not be surprised if we got more insanity, not that I would be complaining about that.
