Chainsaw Man discussion thread

The finger stuff was Yoru's doing. Pochita is just politely asking for blood.

Also, it seems like this chapter retroactively implies Bang was an ability Makima gained after defeating the Gun Devil? Means Yoru may get an attack speed upgrade and Pochita reacted to it in time to block it this chapter too.

doesn't that also mean the gun devil multiplers can be applied to bang

 

[GunshyFever]

This chapter was confusing

 

[ElajRuengies]

Fujimoto used the wrong reference image for the Statue of Liberty, check the date on the tablet.

1776
=
XIV_JUILLIET
1789​

That's the one on the statue replica in Paris, not the one in NYC.

 

[DrGreyman]

so, 20% gun devil powered bang takes like 4-5 shots to send Pochita to space
28% takes one to send pochita flying through a building

seems consistent :clueless emoji:

We have little proof to make this assumption yet

Buildings in Chainsaw Man double as airbags, obviously

 

[DrGreyman]

Alright so apparently there was already a mistranslation caught
The OG and Spanish text both say 40,000, not the 400,000 said in English
so, whatever she's doing, she doesn't need as many bodies as we thought

80,000 index fingers is still a lot of index fingers

 

[DrGreyman]

80,000 index fingers is still a lot of index fingers

Yeah, but she's only using 80k out of 7m, rather than 800k
100 shots v 10 shots is a big difference

 

[DrGreyman]

though that's assuming fingers = shots
could be wrong about that

 

[DrGreyman]

Alright

Buildings in Chainsaw Man double as airbags, obviously

Looking at the panels again
Pochita actually reacts to and deflects the Bang
It's a physical projectile
That tears a chunk out of a side building and the recoil of deflecting it is what sends Pochita flying back into the building

 

[Arkenis]

What raws? It's already in english for free on Manga Plus?

I'm asking for the Japanese version.

 

[Emerald]

finally, confirmation that bang is from the gun devil

[BeTheWay1rst]

The American Devil is canon

The American Devil is canon

Monument Mythos moment next chapter?

 

[GunshyFever]

So the Gun gauntlet or presumably "bang" is regeneration negation?

Edit: Nvm he regenerated his stomach

 

[Emerald]

Monument Mythos moment next chapter?

We getting Pochita vs The Horned Serpent

 

[DrGreyman]

You know
The Statue of Liberty's tablet is wrong
It's based off the one in France, not the one guarding America
On the french replica, instead of the regular date it has the date of the Storming of the Bastille
They stormed the bastille to get the gunpowder inside it
Guys wait

 

[ElajRuengies]

We getting Pochita vs The Horned Serpent

Something insane's about to happen on the moon and everyone will think the Death Devil's coming when it's actually Richard Nixon

Gunpowder Devil next chapter? Also-

Statue of liberty about to deliver some ass kicking next chapter

 

[Emerald]

George Washington (Horned Serpent) pulling up to throw hands with Pochita
(he shouldn't have tried to cut down a special tree)

I mean, if anyone was gonna cut down a Special Tree, it would be the Chainsaw Devil

 

[ElajRuengies]

Random realization, but every single one of the Horsemen besides Death are man-made things- Conquest and War are obvious, but Famine too.

There's always been enough food to feed everyone, the issue is getting it to places where mass hunger happens. And there's shit like how Britain was still exporting food from Ireland during the Great Famine, or the sheer amount of food waste in the US that happens because supply exceeds demand and just giving it away for free would be "Communism."

What I'm saying is that Fami's plan to deliberately starve Asa for her first two ploys are even more fitting than if her name was just "Hunger." (Although if she was Hunger rather than Famine, would that make her a Primal Fear?)

 

[Epiccheev]

Fami will be the final boss. She will call herself the "God of Fear and Hunger"

 

[DrGreyman]

Well, starvation and dry seasons happen in nature as well, there have been many 'natural' famines. It's partially why predator populations stay under control, there simply isn't enough prey to go around so the excess starve and the prey population rebounds, and repeat.
Also, conquest and war, while maybe not to the scale that we are familiar with, absolutely happen in nature. Just look at ants, or wolf packs, or lion prides, or any other group of animals that has to compete for resources, and ants and other social insects are literally noted to go to war with neighboring colonies, entire genetic castes are specifically bred to be soldiers

 

[ElajRuengies]

Fami will be the final boss. She will call herself the "God of Fear and Hunger"

Conquest: I'm controlling of my children's actions, and am extremely emotionally manipulative.

War: Despite the love I feel for them,
I'm willing to sacrifice my children to win, and rationalize it later as necessary.

Famine: I- I actually don't remember what happened to my children.
...
I think I ate them.

Conquest: ...

War: ...

Famine: ...I'm still hungry.

Death is 100% a cat lady

Death is 100% a cat lady

Alerta de furro

 

[LIFE_OF_KING]

A cat lady is a women who hate children and have cats instead
And not a half cat women

 

[Bruh]

so, 20% gun devil powered bang takes like 4-5 shots to send Pochita to space
28% takes one to send pochita flying through a building

seems consistent :clueless emoji:

Well weapons made by Yoru are always a lot stronger than what they're made from, especially if a lot of guilt is involved. So i wouldn't put this as a definitive feat for the base 28% GD

 

[Acertainbcplayer]

Yoru's cakes did major damage to the community in several days, where does that scales guys?

Also I bet next chapter the statue will grow helicopter wings and fly around shooting people.

When Death finally shows up, I imagine it's going to be a lot more like Darkness's introduction than the Gun Devil's, meaning weird paneling and random imagery over large scale destruction.

Like, the scene cuts from some looming monstrosity to the back of a woman in a movie theater, with like four other empty smaller seats, sliced bread and a bottle of wine, and the screen is the previous panel, and then she'll sigh and it'll cut back and suddenly everyone's missing their faces.

No calcable feats, no clear statements, and no explanations. Only arguments about Higher Dimensional Existence and two hour long video essays about the Jesus symbolism will be left in her wake.

Are you fujimoto clone?

 

[ElajRuengies]

Nah I just stole a bunch of other people's previous ideas and combined them, the real Fujimoto clone pervades the consciousness of the whole Fandom.

It's either that, or people will just be simping over her because Fujimoto gives her a dumptruck ass like usual.

 

[ElajRuengies]

I just read someone describe Pochita as "The Immortal Snail" of Devils and so now you have to think about that too.
