Man, these chapters just be too short, man :mjcry:. This is the one problem with part 2 reading it chapter by chapter. Pacing is slower, the release schedule is slower, and what happens in each chapter is slower. It honestly feels like every 2 chapters in part 2 is worth 1 chapter in part 1.

Anyway, I am curious what devil Denji barfs. Nuclear Bomb Devil would be interesting with Yoru looking on the sidelines.

Nuke devil makes sense. I'd been spinning wheels trying to think of what devil Pochita could barf up that'd kick off the arrival of the Death horseman, but a weapon for Yoru to work with would make a lot of sense.

There’s a parallel between Aging demon wanting to kill kids and the people in charge questioning it
To Denji doing what he is doing
And I suspect it’s an ulterior motive by aging wanting to be eaten

Chapter 188

Yoshida well I never would have guessed that. When Denji points out that the Aging Devil wants to be eaten by Chainsaw Man and while watching kids getting killed. And the other part public saftey is about killing kids is a reminder how fukked up the things they are doing.

Though Yoshida is the Octopus devil huh. It feels weird that the chapter title would reveal this. Of course, the final page of CSM is Yoshida asking Denji if he can shove his hand in his mouth.


At this point, predicting where Fujimoto goes with this series is impossible :pachaha:

WTF did I just read!?

So Mifune confirmed to be some kinda devil, but which? Octopus is OP, wtf is that final panel!? All the grossness and Yoru still managed to be funny.
...Also, that's a hilarious way back to the real world. So simple and obvious, but it genuiniely never crossed my mind!

@tripleaamin gotta get in here with some takes, I'm running to the theory crafters to see what they're saying ASAP!

I have been prioritizing reading Undead Unluck lately, but just read the last two chapters.

Regarding Fumiko and Yoshida. It seems clear he is the Octopus Devil in some form, but Fumiko can either create clones or it is a twin. At least Yoshida is at least should be a hybrid. Unless Fumiko and Yoshida are connected in some way?

Chapter 190. I am actually curious who is that at the beginning of the page. Beyond that, ultimately the Aging Devil had to agree to the terms, or it would have been stuck with Denji in that world. Tho funny af for them to say everything is back to normal and the whole place is full of chaos :pachaha:

I feel like there's possible implications to the fact that Chainsaw Man's stomach started leading to Aging Devil's world while Denji was trapped there. Like, the missing and forgotten stuff is probably trapped in some kinda similar style world...which is to say, Chainsaw Man is a Primal Fear. Which fear? I still have no clue. But Darkness had his own world. Aging has one. Chainsaw Man at max power probably has one too.

It's just a bit of guesswork, but it could make for a REALLY cool arc if some characters we've gotten familiar with wind up in Pochita's stomach world. So, maybe I'm just wishful thinking here...forgotten devils, S1 characters (well, mainly just the one), and a new setting.

Superb chapter towards the end IMO.

Yoru just killing people left in right. I hope we see Asa back in control just for him to see the difference in the personalities.

Him saying you are the only friends I had left was sad. I mean it is true considering how everyone left him. Man him still willing to look for the Blood Devil, which is the first lead he has. But man we have been left in the dark about the Control Devil and it looks like with the Death Devil coming we will get answers of some kind.

I'm glad he didn't look at the rest of the group as friends, but it was definitely sad he only has Yoru/Asa now. I know it's not Fujimoto's style, but I'd love for him to come up with a conceit for Denji to bring back Power and Nayuta, maybe based on whatever Pochita's actual devil identity is...something about choice since there have been a lot of dual-identities in this part. Nayuta/Makima, Asa/Yoru, fake CSM/Denji, and the hybrids not fully recalling their pasts...something with memory, idk.

This has all the makings of the final arc of part two. It literally looks like the end of the world.

This chapter :skip: :mjlol:

So I got the feeling Yoru is trying to be like Makima, but will fail because she and Asa share feelings for Denji.

The literal Makima promise being repeated is a trip. Part of the complaints I've seen about CSM is "Denji keeps regressing" but I like to think that a lot of it comes from outside of forces that won't let him evolve or be happy. I think/hope Fujimoto is doing that to set up something extra in the grand finale. But who really knows? Half the time, I just get Devilman Crybaby Redux vibes.

I like that Yoru started with "Asa likes you." I'm wondering where the hell Asa has been. I've wanted Asa and Denji to have a real conversation since she broke him out of the prison. But even now when there's a chance, it's blocked.

The small character development Denji had only to regress
This story is starting to get frustrating
I understand he is a 16 year old boy controlled by hormones
Been there, Done That
But the constant narrative of women controlling his life
It was cool in part one but damn I wish he was further ahead in his character arc
It feels like he is always second to these mid ass characters being put in front of us
Pretty sure this will have a tragic end where he is all alone or sacrifices himself or it’s a complete Devil Man Anarchy ending but constantly getting played by people and him not standing up for himself is exhausting
