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.
