Recently, publisher Shueisha revealed the cover of Volume 19 of Tatsuki Fujimoto ’s manga , “ Chainsaw Man ,” which is scheduled for release on December 4 in Japan. Although it is normal for the covers of a manga to be revealed, it seems that this one was quite talked about because Fujimoto put Fumiko Mifune as the protagonist. It turns out that this character could not be more hated by the community, especially for the relationship she had with the protagonist Denji.

For his part, Tatsuki Fujimoto began publishing the manga in December 2018, and finished the first part in December 2020. A second part, currently in serialization, has been in serialization since July 2022, although the quality of the drawing has declined considerably since the departure of Yukinobu Tatsu from the team of assistants.

An anime adaptation by MAPPA Studios aired during the Fall 2022 season (October-December) , featuring twelve episodes. Years later, a film was announced that will adapt the well-known “ Reze Arc ”, but there have been no details since then.

Chainsaw Man Synopsis

The story follows Denji, a poor and indebted young man who works as a demon hunter to pay off the debts he inherited from his father. Alongside his faithful companion Pochita, a chainsaw-wielding dog-like demon, Denji lives a miserable life performing dangerous jobs for the yakuza. His life takes a terrifying turn when he is betrayed and killed by his own employers. However, Pochita, in an act of sacrifice, fuses with Denji to revive him, granting him the ability to transform into Chainsaw Man, a creature with chainsaws emerging from his head and arms.

Following this event, Denji is recruited by Makima, a mysterious woman in charge of the government's Special Demon Slayer Division. From then on, Denji battles increasingly terrifying demons, faces hidden conspiracies, and deals with his own desires and traumas as he attempts to achieve his simple but heartfelt dreams: to eat well, live comfortably, and find love.
