Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc Review: Country Mouse or City Mouse?

There was a rather strange disconnect between English speaking and Japanese viewers in regard to their opinions on the first season of Chainsaw Man.
Many English speakers, myself included, loved the first season, especially with how it paid homage to various aspects of film, which the mangaka Tatsuki Fujimoto is a big fan of.
However, the Japanese viewers’ reactions were mostly the complete opposite.
There was a lot of hate directed towards the first season, due to the style being seen as different from the manga, and a few other reasons I do not quite understand.
Therefore, for the movie continuing Chainsaw Man’s story, it was decided a different director would take on the job with a different animation style.
To be honest, I was a bit concerned with what I would think about the new art style, since I really liked the old one.
Today, I got the chance to sit down in a theatre and watch Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc and see this change for myself.

Kind of fitting that the arc chosen for a film has a scene where Denji and Makima go to see multiple movies.

You can imagine my relief when I absolutely loved the new style and actually think it is better than Season One’s.
That is not to sell the old art style short, but the new one has so many unique moments, with many shots looking like a manga panel brought to life.
Along with this, the animation quality is incredible.
Whether the scene was a slow, thoughtful one, a comedic one, or an action extravaganza, I am sure you could pause the movie at any point and end up with a great shot.

Likewise, the music and sound design are top notch, with the sound of explosions being particularly gripping to hear in the theatre.
And then there is the voice acting.
Everyone from the First Season does a great job, as expected.
Kikunosuke Toya brings the perfect mixture of emotion and comedy to his portrayal of Denji.
Tomori Kusunoki makes Makima sound creepy as ever.
Then there is the new voice on the block for Chainsaw Man, Reina Ueda as Reze.
Talk about perfect casting for the character.
Because of her and Toya’s performance, Reze and Denji have great romantic chemistry, making the events that play out later in the film both tragic and epic to witness.

It was a joy to see Reze finally animated.

All in all, The Reze Arc is a fantastic adaptation of the storyline from the manga.
The portrayal of its two leads is excellent, and the animation style, its quality, the music and sound design are all peak.
I am honestly so glad that they chose to adapt the Reze Arc as a film instead of in an episodic format.
Watching Chainsaw Man on the big screen really reminded me of my love for Part One of the story.
I cannot wait to see the rest of this adaptation, whether that be with more movies, or another season.
Unfortunately, we will probably have to wait years to find out which format it will be.
Oh, well, at least Chainsaw Man is still going strong with Part Two, so us fans of Tatsuki Fujimoto’s work are not starved for content.

Chainsaw Man Chapter 217: Two Good People Review: Asa’s Door.

Every Chainsaw Man fan remembers the door reveal from Part One of the story.
Tatsuki Fujimoto did an excellent job of building up to the reveal that Denji was the one who killed his father.
Now, over 100 chapters since that reveal, Fujimoto has revealed another door twist, only for Asa instead of Denji.
And, whereas the reveal in Part One was a moment of trauma, the reveal in Part Two is a moment of healing.
Chapter 217, “Two Good People” begins with the aftermath of Asa finding her mother after running down her dream alleyway.
Asa reveals to Denji that when she was little, a Devil came out of the river and cut off her father’s leg before her mother killed it.
Asa ran to get help, tripping along the way, only to find upon her return that her own mother had murdered her father.
She did this because Asa’s father was an abusive drunk, who was cheating on her, although there was also some financial incentive, since Asa’s mother tells her the money from his life insurance will help her go to school.
The reveal of what happened to Asa’s father was a great bit of misdirection from Fujimoto.
At the beginning of Part Two, we are told that Asa’s parents were killed by a Devil.
We then see Asa’s mother and a man being killed by the Typhoon Devil in a flashback.
Back then, I assumed the man was Asa’s father, but I did find it odd that Asa seemed to remember her mother more than him.
Now, it makes sense because her father died at a different time and was abusive.
Asa tells Denji she does not know if her mother’s actions made her a bad person or not, before explaining that she tripped on purpose while running for help, hoping her father would die.
This raises questions about how many times Asa tripping in the past has been intentional.
Asa asks Denji if he thinks she is a bad person for what she did and Denji responds, “I killed my dad and made it look like a suicide… but I’m a good person.”
Never did I think a character confessing murder could be positive development.
All the way back when Denji remembered what he did to his father, he hated himself, believing he did not deserve to live a normal life.
Now, here he is telling Asa that he is a good person despite what he did, cheering her up to the point that the two break out into laughter, while Yoru and Pochita continue their fight in the real world, ending the chapter.
Denji turned this potentially traumatic moment for Asa and used his own experiences with it to turn it into a moment of healing.
The two of them really are made for each other.
They have similar, traumatic pasts but they use that to bring out the best in each other.
“Two Good People” is a great chapter, which provides a lot of growth for its two lead characters.
Its uplifting ending, despite the subject matter, made me even more excited for the Chainsaw Man movie, which is finally releasing in my country this week.
I already have my ticket booked and you can expect my review for it after I see the film.

Chainsaw Man Chapter 198, It’s Fami! Review: Fujimoto Fooled Us All.

In my experience, the best kind of twists are the ones you don’t see coming but once they happen the foreshadowing becomes clear.
Well, Tatsuki Fujimoto just delivered such a twist in Chainsaw Man Chapter 198, “It’s Fami!”
The chapter begins with the “Death Devil” pleading for her life after being defeated by the Imposter Chainsaw Man.
The Imposter goes on a rant about justice, showing that he buys into the Chainsaw Man Church’s propaganda.
This makes complete sense, given the subsequent reveal where the “Death Devil” reforms her body, before giving her own speech and then introducing herself.
“My name is Famine Devil! Please call me Fami!”
The resulting “WHAT!?” I shouted probably echoed throughout my house.
With this single line of dialogue, Fujimoto delivers the most shocking reveal of Part Two.
This entire time, the character we knew as “Fami” was the actual Death Devil impersonating her sister.
As I said earlier, the best twists are ones where the foreshadowing becomes clear in the aftermath.
The reveal of Fami as the Death Devil makes so much sense in retrospect.
Her head is always tilted because it looks like she is hanging, and her being the Death Devil is why the Guillotine and Falling Devils follow her.
Speaking of which, the latter immediately shows up following the reveal, overpowering the real Fami and the Imposter with ease.
With the two subdued, the Death Devil apologizes to Fami for stealing her name, to which Fami says she should kill herself if she feels anything for mankind.
In response, Fami lifts up her skirt, revealing her stomach.
The final panel of the chapter reveals that the Death Devil has cut open her own stomach and removed her organs but still could not die.
This creepy final image once again adds new context to the story.
In previous reviews I have commented on how funny I found it that “Fami” was such a glutton, considering she was supposed to be the Famine Devil.
Now we know she eats a lot not because she is the representation of famine but because she has no organs to digest food so is probably always hungry.
Fujimoto clearly had this twist planned long in advance and his efforts have more than paid off.
I would argue that this is the best twist not just in Part Two but in all of Chainsaw Man.
The question now is, what is the Death Devil’s true goal?
Before she died, Nayuta theorized “Fami” was powering up Denji and Asa to take down the Death Devil.
But the reveal that Fami is actually the Death Devil herself throws this into question.
Of course, there is the possibility that she wants Denji and Asa to kill her.
She admits to having removed her own organs at the end of the chapter, which suggests she did try to end her life.
We will just have to see what happens next.
As for “It’s Fami!” it is already one of my favorite chapters in all of Chainsaw Man.
It delivers the best twist of the series, and I cannot wait to see how this reveal is expanded upon in future chapters.

Chainsaw Man Chapter 196, Chainsaw Man to the Rescue! Review: Unnecessary Salvation.

Tatsuki Fujimoto concluded the previous chapter of Chainsaw Man by introducing the Death Devil, who said she was going to save everyone.
Based off this statement, and Yoru’s recent villainous turn, I theorized that Yoru would turn out to be the main villain of Part Two, while the Death Devil would serve a more heroic role.
Well, Chapter 196, “Chainsaw Man to the Rescue!” just proved me wrong.
The chapter begins with Fujimoto further exploring the personality of the Death Devil and, because this is Fujimoto, of course she is a complete loser.
She breaks down into a sobbing mess when no one pays attention to her.
Then, when someone tries to include her by asking her to take out the trash, The Death Devil says he should do it because he does not have special powers, unlike her.
The Death Devil being a nervous wreck, having a massive superiority complex and being completely socially unaware makes for a really funny character.
It does not, however, make her fun to be around, and she quickly earns the ire of her classmates, particularly the girl who bullied Asa way back at the beginning of Part Two.
The bully tells the Death Devil to go outside and kill ants, which she does.
The boy who tried to include her earlier attempts to do so again, only for the Death Devil to place a hand on his head.
“Through death I’ll release you from your earthly suffering,” she says, proving my theory about her being a good guy wrong.
The Death Devil certainly seems to view herself as a good guy, though, since she intends to “save” everyone, through death.
Before she can kill the boy, however, she is thankfully interrupted by Chainsaw Man, or rather, the fake Chainsaw Man.
The chapter ends with a full reveal of the fake Chainsaw Man’s form and, once again, Fujimoto has given us a sick design.
A gory mess of blood and bone, the imposter even has a cape made out of guts.
So, it looks like next chapter we are going to get a fight between the fake and the Death Devil.
This makes sense since the imposter is aligned with Fami, and she wants to stop Death.
It will be cool to get a look at Death’s abilities, and I wonder if the boy she tried to kill will survive.
Personally, I hope so because he seemed like a nice guy, trying to include the Death Devil even when she was rude to him.
Overall, “Chainsaw Man to the Rescue!” is yet another great chapter.
Fujimoto does a solid job developing the Death Devil and looks to be setting up a hype fight between her and the fake Chainsaw Man.

Chainsaw Man Chapter 195, Kill Me Tears Review: The Fourth Horseman.

After so many memes in the fandom about different characters being the Death Devil, it seems that Fujimoto has finally revealed her in Chapter 195, “Kill Me Tears.”
The chapter begins with Asa turning her finger gun on herself, but she is thankfully too scared of death to end it.
She then goes back to aiming at Denji and threatens to kill him if he does not kill her.
Asa’s reasoning for doing so is that Yoru is planning something much worse than the extinction of humanity, so she wants to stop Yoru before she can accomplish it.
Asa calls herself an idiot for thinking that she could be friends with a Devil, but Denji responds, “I think you could be friends.”
This is a great callback to Part One where Denji was confident in being friends with Devils, due to his bond with Pochita.
However, after much insistence from Asa, Denji relents and attempts to kill her with a chair, only for Asa to jump out of the way and humorously call him a murderer.
She states she was not mentally prepared to die, and Denji responds that nobody is, even him, and he can come back to life.
This paints a grim picture of Denji’s constant deaths throughout the series since, despite his immortality, they still impact him.
In the end, he is able to temporarily appease Asa by convincing her to have fun with him shooting buildings.
This was a great scene between the two.
It built upon Asa’s growing fear of Yoru and showed Denji’s opinion on his constant deaths.
Fear of death is a clear theme in this scene and the entire chapter, which makes it very fitting that Fujimoto ends it by supposedly introducing the Death Devil.
We see her arriving as a transfer student at the school, where the other students are preparing for the festival Fami talked about last chapter.
The supposed Death Devil nervously introduces herself, claiming she is here to save everyone, ending the chapter.
It is strange that the Death Devil turned out to be such a nervous wreck.
I mean, she should theoretically be the strongest Devil since every human fears death.
For her to end up with a personality similar to Kobeni is pretty funny.
That is, if she is the Death Devil because she could always be the reincarnation of the Control Devil.
This seems unlikely though because Nayuta was a kid when she reincarnated, and this new Devil looks like a teenager.
Assuming she is the Death Devil, her saying she is here to save everyone is especially interesting.
Combine that with Asa’s terror at Yoru’s plan, and it makes me think that Yoru may actually turn out to be Chainsaw Man Part Two’s big bad.
Perhaps she intends to kill the Death Devil so there can be constant war with no death, which will empower her?
Either way, I am looking forward to seeing how the Death Devil (if this is her) will interact with the other horsemen.
Her and Yoru will obviously be at odds but what about Fami?
Overall, “Kill Me Tears” is a great chapter.
Fujimoto used the theme of fearing death to supposedly introduce a Devil fans have been anticipating for a while.
The fallout of her arrival should be interesting.

Chainsaw Man Chapter 194, Fun School Festival Review: A Great Visual Gag.

Having missed a few of my usual Chainsaw Man reviews, I will begin by saying the last few chapters have been solid, with some great humor and development for Denji and Yoru.
The previous chapter brought the story full circle, with Denji once again being promised sex if he takes down a Devil.
Yoru really proved to be very similar to her sister Makima.
The only differences in her offer to Denji is that Yoru wants Denji to kill the Death Devil instead of the Gun Devil, and Yoru actually likes Denji because her feelings are influenced by Asa’s.
Sadly, Denji was just happy to have someone who genuinely likes him, so Chapter 194 “Fun School Festival” begins with him having stayed with Yoru.
The chapter starts with some regular Denji humor, as Denji states he could not sleep because he had “too many boners.”
But it is here where Fujimoto also shows how Denji has developed because, rather than touch Yoru while she’s sleeping, he instead covers her up with a blanket.
He’s not completely delusional about his situation though because he acknowledges to Pochita that staying with Yoru and Asa is likely to end with him getting screwed over, given his track record with women he likes wanting to kill him.
From here, the chapter cuts to Yoshida and Fumiko, who reveal Public Safety are so desperate they are willing to team up with Fami.
Unfortunately for them, the day the Death Devil is supposed to arrive is also the day of a festival at Fami’s school, which she has been chosen to help plan.
Much like Yoru proving to be like Makima, Fami proves herself to be like Nayuta, as both humorously refuse to save the world because of school.
The situation gets even funnier when Fami’s friends arrive and literally hoist her away in a fantastic visual gag which gave me the best laugh of the chapter.
The comedy continues when Yoshida is more disappointed in Fami claiming he is no fun, frustrating a somehow still alive Fumiko.
A few chapters ago, Fumiko seemingly gave her life to help Yoshida and the others escape the Aging Devil.
However, she has still stuck around.
Fumiko is one of the most confusing characters in the manga to me.
Her motives seem weird to me, and her still being alive is weird to me.
I honestly cannot tell if Fujimoto plans to reveal something about her or not.
The final scene of the chapter shows Denji and Yoru hanging out, with Yoru blasting buildings for Denji’s amusement.
The fun and destruction ends when Asa takes back control and holds Denji at finger gunpoint, proving him right and concluding the chapter.
We have not seen Asa’s perspective since she escaped the Aging Devil’s world so I’m curious to see what she thinks of Yoru’s actions, and why exactly she is now threatening Denji.
Overall, “Fun School Festival” is a fun chapter.
It has development for Denji and a hilarious scene with Fami, including one of the series’ best visual gags.

Chainsaw Man Chapters 188 and 189 Review: Typical Fujimoto Craziness.

Going into Chainsaw Man Chapter 188, “Octopus, War, Chainsaw,” I knew to expect more insanity from Tatsuki Fujimoto.
I had seen a preview of the first few panels so knew that Denji would throw up Yoshida but to see it actually happen sure was something.
Yoshida is quick to understand the situation and suggests working together to escape.
Asa refuses to accept Yoshida’s apology for cutting off her arm but he humorously twists this into a handshake.
Denji is also reluctant to work with Yoshida, but he uses a bear analogy, stating they should put aside their differences to return to the outside world.
Now working together, Yoshida quickly proves his worth.
Knowing that Denji’s stomach is connected to Chainsaw Man, he asks to put his hand down his throat, to which Denji smiles, ending the chapter.
From here, things only get weirder with Chapter 189, “Heart, Pass, Octopus,” as our heroes continuously shove themselves down Denji’s throat in their attempts to escape.
First, Yoshida shoves his hand in, using the Octopus Devil to attack.
Then, Yoru fires blindly before, in one of Chainsaw Man‘s most bizarre panels, she climbs through Denji’s mouth to get a clear shot at the Aging Devil.
All of these attempts fail, with Yoru’s attempt resulting in the Aging Devil warping her into an old woman.
Thankfully for her and Asa, the aging fades when she returns to the other dimension.
Following all of these failures, help arrives from an unexpected source: Fumiko.
As she lies bleeding on the ground, both she and the Aging Devil see what appears to be a hallucination of herself, which announces that she promised herself she would side with the winner in her final moments.
Fumiko then gives her heart to Yoshida, who feeds it to the Octopus Devil, powering it up.
The Octopus Devil then leaves through Denji’s mouth and crashes through the building in the chapter’s final panel.
This whole ending scene is weird, but I don’t mean that in a praiseworthy way.
I actually have no idea what is even going on with Fumiko.
If she was hallucinating herself, then why could the Aging Devil also see the hallucination?
Also, Fumiko’s motives just seem all over the place.
First, she’s a creep who touches Denji without his consent.
Then, she has an emotional backstory about why she wants to help Denji.
Next, she abandons him and Nayuta to save her own skin and is fine with Denji being ripped apart.
Then, she’s willing to sacrifice her own body to stop the Nostradamus Prophecy.
Finally, she switches sides and helps Yoshida because she thinks he’s going to win, even though they were losing up until that point.
Her whole character seems pretty inconsistent, unless we get some context, but that seems unlikely since she just literally gave up her heart in a contract.
Still, despite my issues with Fumiko’s character, these were some really good chapters.
Once again, Fujimoto proves himself to be creatively insane with the concepts he comes up with.
Interested to see if Yoshida’s alliance with Denji and Asa still holds after they escape.

Chainsaw Man Chapter 187, Barf! Review: Treesaw Man.

Going into Chapter 187 of Chainsaw Man, I was excited to see the fight between Pochita and the Aging Devil.
Sure enough, it did not disappoint, as “Barf!” begins with Pochita’s heart crashing through the building, his body forming before anyone can stop it.
Pochita immediately slices the Aging Devil apart but, being a Primal Fear, it takes more than that to kill the Aging Devil who turns Pochita into a tree.
These panels are excellent, once again showing off Tatsuki Fujimoto’s skill.
Back in the Aging Devil’s dimension, Denji continues to kill and eat the tree people to power Pochita up.
However, no matter how many times Pochita cuts through the Aging Devil, it always regenerates.
Left with no other option, Denji tells Pochita to vomit up a Devil that will help them.
The chapter then ends with Denji about to barf up this Devil.
There were theories going around after this chapter that Denji would either throw up the Nuclear Weapons Devil, or the Octopus Devil, but we know from some teaser panels released that Denji will throw up Yoshida himself.
Not only is this teased panel grossly hilarious, but it also adds more weight to the theory that Yoshida is the only person who once escaped the Aging Devil’s dimension.
He will probably help Denji and Asa escape next chapter so the fight with the Aging Devil can continue.
As for Chapter 187, it is a brief but exciting one, with a lot of great action panels.
I am interested to see how Yoshida will help next chapter.

Chainsaw Man Chapters 184-186 Review: Return of the Perpetual Motion Machine.

Having fallen behind in my Chainsaw Man reviews, I have decided to review all three at once before Chapter 187 releases tomorrow.
Chapter 184: “Run Denji” is a short chapter, but one that shows his development from the previous chapter.
It begins with Denji running around the lake in the Aging Devil’s dimension, while Asa and Yoru sit down, confused by his actions, and the crazy guy continues to imitate a cicada.
While Denji runs, the Aging Devil appears to try and make a contract with him.
If Denji convinces Pochita to eat the Aging Devil, thus dooming thousands of children, he will be freed.
Denji refuses and the Aging Devil finds it odd how optimistic he is after Nayuta’s death, cruelly concluding that he never loved her.
It is then that Fujimoto shows why Denji’s memories of Aki, Power, Reze, and Nayuta last chapter were so vital.
Denji now knows that no matter how many loved ones he has lost, he can always find a new family, while remembering the old.
Although hopeful, it is pretty morbid when Denji says that he can find a new family repeatedly if they keep dying.
It’s not really a good sales pitch for potential loved ones, you know?
With this, Fujimoto brings back the concept of a perpetual motion machine from the original Eternity Devil Arc.
There, Denji used it to defeat the Eternity Devil, now he is using it to motivate himself to keep moving.
The Aging Devil calls Denji stupid for believing this, and the chapter then ends with Denji calling him stupid back, stating that his escape plan is already in motion.
I would say that “Run Denji” is a solid chapter, which builds upon Denji’s emotional growth.
It also leads well into the next chapter, “Stomach in Another World” where we see the beginning of Denji’s plan unfolding.
Before this though, we get more of the Aging Devil’s blathering.
It once again state that it is impossible to escape the dimension, revealing that all of the humans who came before have turned into trees after thousands of years trapped.
This fascinates the Aging Devil, who wants all humans to live long enough to become trees and “discover unseen concepts,” providing another motivation for it, beyond the murder of thousands of children.
Or, at least, that seems to be what the Aging Devil claims when speaking to the elderly government official, who it is currently using as a chair.
Denji then reveals his master plan: Using a weapon created by Asa to cut out a tree person’s guts and then eat them.
Since Denji’s stomach is in the real world, this allows Pochita to revive himself.
It is kind of funny how in Chapter 104, Denji told Asa Chainsaw Man would only eat people the “one time” (referencing Makima), and now he is doing it again to save both himself and Asa.
In my review of Chapter 183, I also predicted that whatever Denji’s plan was, it would be stupid enough to work.
Well, with Pochita’s revival, this proves accurate.
The chapter concludes with the Aging Devil warning Public Safety that Chainsaw Man is on his way.
Good thing too because if the chapter went on for another page, we would probably see all of the Public Safety Agents crap their pants in terror.
Chapter 186, “Yank, Blorsh, Bdoom” begins with Pochita beginning his lightning-fast advance towards the Aging Devil.
Thinking quick on its feet, the Aging Devil offers a contract to the Public Safety officers, including Fumiko.
If they give it charge over their bodies, it will save them from Chainsaw Man.
All of the officers agree, and the Aging Devil sacrifices their nails to bloodily incapacitate Pochita.
However, due to Denji constantly eating in the other dimension, Pochita is able to revive.
It is at this point that Fumiko tells the Aging Devil not to worry about them, and continue to use their bodies to defeat Chainsaw Man.
Bold of you to assume that the Aging Devil actually gives a damn about you, Fumiko.
As for her, I continue to wonder just what Fujimoto has planned for her character, if anything.
Her stated motivations do make sense with her backstory but, at the same time, I cannot help but believe there is something incredibly sketchy about her.
Maybe it’s just because I’m still mad she refused to help Nayuta, leading to her death.
The Aging Devil takes Fumiko’s liver, causing her to vomit blood, and then takes another officer’s eyes.
And so, another perpetual motion machine is created where, every time Pochita falls, Denji eats in the other dimension, reviving him.
Pochita eventually decides to accelerate the motion, ripping out his own heart and throwing it right at the Aging Devil.
He used this same move to fight Makima back in Part One and it is no less metal here, with the chapter ending on it.
So, next chapter we will finally see the confrontation between Pochita and the Aging Devil.
It will be interesting to see if Pochita can end it quickly or if the Aging Devil will put up more of a fight.
Either way, Pochita is definitely not going to eat the Aging Devil, at least not willingly.
Overall, these three chapters were a lot of fun, delivering on character development for Denji, and perfectly displaying the insanity of his plan.
Fujimoto also brought the old concept of a perpetual motion machine back, this time to reference Denji’s constant loss of loved ones, and to reference the cycle of Denji reviving Pochita.
I look forward to reading the next chapter tomorrow and seeing the outcome of the fight between Chainsaw Man and the Aging Devil.

Chainsaw Man Chapter 183, Barf, Head, Perv Review: Bitter Memories.

I was pretty excited going into Chapter 183 of Chainsaw Man, “Barf, Head, Perv.”
The previous chapter ended by teasing one of Denji’s memories of Aki and Power, making many of us believe we were going to get a flashback about them.
Unfortunately, all we actually get is a couple of panels of the back of their heads, as Denji remembers them.
The brief, mournful flash is quickly followed by disgust as Denji throws up another Devil, this one the Bitterness Devil.
Denji doing so allows him to remember the bitterness of the coffee he shared with Reze, followed by another now tragic memory of him walking the dogs with Nayuta.
This causes Denji to realize that Pochita ate all of those Devils to make Denji remember the times when he was happy.
The Snow Devil was to remember Aki and Power, and the Bitterness Devil was to remember Reze.
Once again Pochita proves himself to be the best Devil there is.
Denji gets his second wind and, in a crude way that is so typical of him at this point, tells Asa that he is going to get them out of the Aging Devil’s dimension.
Whatever Denji’s plan is it involves Pochita’s stomach in the outside world, but Denji declares that this plan is “super smart.”
Given Denji’s previous “super smart” plans in the series, I am willing to bet this is a plan so stupid that it will somehow work to hilarious effect.
But we will have to wait until next chapter to see what this plan is because, with Denji’s declaration, the chapter comes to a close.
Overall, it is a pretty good chapter.
It was disappointing to see that the Aki and Power cliffhanger only resulted in a brief tease, but it was also nice to see Reze again, if only briefly.
This shows Fujimoto has not forgotten about her and hopefully has plans for her, since she should still be alive like the other Devil Hybrids.
We will have to wait and see, just like we will have to wait until next chapter to see what Denji’s “super smart” plan is.
