About Chainsaw Man
In the ever-evolving world of Japanese manga and anime, Chainsaw has carved iself a unique niche, resonating with fans and critics alike.
Created by the unconventional Tatsuki Fujimoto, the series began as a manga, serialized in Weekly Shōnen Jump in December 2018.
Chainsaw revolves around the life of Denji, a poverty stricken young man who turns to devil hunting to erase his father's debts. He has the ability to merge with his pet devil, Pochita, transforming into the titular Chainsaw Man, a character that's as unique as he is deadly.
Chainsaw's blend of horror, dark comedy, and action-packed storytelling offers an experience not found in the typical shōnen genre.
The manga's success and its substantial fanbase has paved the way for its anime adaptation, which was announced in 2020. It was brought to the small screen by the acclaimed animation studio MAPPA. The anime adaptation first aired in October 11th, 2022.
The story takes place in a world where people's fears turn into Devils. Devils are usually evil and dangerous, and their power grows with how much fear they cause. But humans can make deals with them to use their power, and there are people called Devil Hunters whose job it is to find and hire them. Devils come from Hell and live in a cycle between Earth and Hell. When they die in Hell, they move to Earth, and when they die on Earth, they move to Hell. Primal Fears, which are very powerful Devils that have never been killed, live in Hell. The Hell Devils seems to be in charge of how people move between the two planes.
A Fiend is a Devil that has taken over the body of a dead person and taken on some of their memories and personality, this may happen in certain situations. People say that devils who naturally look like humans are kind to humans.
The story takes place in 1997 in an alternate timeline where the Soviet Union is still around and many important events, like the Holocaust, have been forgotten. There used to be nuclear weapons in this world, but they are no longer around because the Chainsaw Devil ate the Nuclear Weapons Devil. Also, there hasn't been a war since the World War because the War Devil has been weakened so much that the only reminders of war are in the media and pop culture.
