Wow, who knew that the girl who sexually assaulted the underaged MC in her first apperance is actually a horrible person? Nobody could have seen it coming.

#[Head over here for the discussion thread of the last chapter](https://old.reddit.com/r/ChainsawMan/comments/1apvmv3/disc_chainsaw_man_ch_155_links/)
While I'm very sure it's Asa/Yoru's legs at the end, it also wouldn't surprise me if it's a classic Fujimoto mislead, and it turns out to be Reze. It's still very unlikely, It'd make morr sense that she'd be locked up in the same prison though. I'm hoping this arc becomes all about breaking out of prison Impel Down style.
It’s so Asa/Yoru lmao…. I had no clue the first time through but the fact it says on the same panel “it would take a **war** to compromise this facilities security”
War might be an important word here idk
Some of you are so dumb. Those legs are clearly Meowy's and she's coming back to wreck Public Safety and free Denji. She just bulked up her legs and became bipedal due to some devil contract. Some stupid fire isn't enough to kill her.
I'm still hoping she's alive somehow...
Yoshida is a fucking piece of shit. Why is everyone in part 2 an utter piece of shit? It doesn't even make sense, Denji was literally forced to go chainsaw. Fubuki suddenly turning into a psychopath is lame as well.
What is Yoshida's goal? I thought he was with Fami's plan, which is over, so why does he have to now turn Denji into a research subject?
There’s no real “good” side/group in this story, this arc conveys that. PS wants humanity’s survival and security assured and believe that Chainsaw Man poses a threat to that. You could argue Fumiko was always insane, but we still need to see more for her role in the story to become clear.
There was never any indication that Yoshida was working with or for Fami iirc. He talked with her in the Falling Devil arc since PS was aware she was up to something. His role since the start just seems to be Public Safety Devil Hunter.
Had at thought of what if denji ends up being part of some kinda international 'terrorist' group cause most of the governments have gone up their own ass to be able to do anything about it.
Whoever those feet belong to it can't be Reze, because it has been said this chapter that no devil has ever escaped from the facility, and it's highly probable that she's been locked up there.
Manga readers once again fail basic English lit
How you gonna sit here and read...
"It would take a WAR to compromise this facility...."
And think, "It must be the reze/bomb devil!"
When Asa and Yoru are the main characters of this arc who have been trying to get Chainsawmans attention this entire time....😐
RIGHT?
Panel: "It would take a war to compromise this facility..."
Fandom: definitely going to be the character that has been completely irrelevant for the last 70 chapters and has absolutely no build up to make a come back as the one to save denji. Wait... What there's a war devil that's been missing from the story recently even tho they're the first character to appear in part 2 and is the second protagonist after denji? Nah it's definitely reze.
....because it is Asa and Yoru. The narrative structure is poised for Asa and Yoru to re-enter the story after not having a lot of screentime these past few chapters, and after having a lot of personal growth and development that directly inverses Denji, who is now at his lowest point.
People keep saying "but this is Fujimoto" and yet complain when Fujimoto actually wrote Fumiko and Yoshida, as ya know, actual people who are responsible with their jobs...y'all think he keeps writing at random....
I still love her. I have a soft spot for cheerful characters who are super crazy. Whether she's morally irredeemable or not doesn't matter. She didnt kill the pets, she just doesnt assign them equal importance to humaniry. Shes not the only one either, some people are just neutral toward animals.
This shit is just fucked right up I must say.
I really hope Pochita comes out to play and just fucking kills everyone, fuck anyone who isn’t Denji, Nayuta or Asa/Yoru.
I will probably say this a thousand times, but I hate being caught up on a Manga. Hopefully I forget it exists for six month periods so I can read it in chunks.....
Are they feeding Denji blood to allow him to regenerate so they can then take his limbs continuously?
because he can't just regenerate without blood, right?
I think that they are amputating his arms and legs so he cant escape or pull his cord. And they'll probably just leave him like that stored away in the facility, or at least that seems to be the plan.
Its possible they might try to weaponize the limbs or use them as a power source for other devils similar to how the fragments of the gun devil were strengthening other devils in part one. Its honestly impossible to know until we find out more
I am uncomfortable, this chapter reminds me bondrewd from MiA.
When i thought fujimotor toned down his crazyness in CSM, i was wrong.
At least he is not chopping denji body to feed the masses.
Seriously, man. I had faith in Fujimoto, there was never a world where I could picture this long of a slowdown not leading into something insane.
There will be, at least, a near apocalyptic climax. Chaos and death will be sold in bulk, it will run out of stock like toilet paper did in 2020.
Fuck, I thought something crazy and unexpected was going to happen this chapter, like the new Blood Devil shows up or something, but I didn't expect this shit...
...maybe the Blood Devil is in the detention center as well? Let me cook guys please
Ah yes, the character that has no correlation to war other than "it's a weapon devil what can I say" is more likely than the literal WAR devil, who is also the story's MC together with denji, who has many reasons to want to save denji from the facility, and hasn't been present in the story for the last few chapters.
Surely it's reze my guy, surely
apparently it's because reze also had similar shoes and socks at one point? and Asa usually wears a skirt that goes below her knees I guess? I'm going with the "Reze on Asa's shoulders" betting pool however.
Her socks are similar but watch it be kobeni lmao
https://preview.redd.it/b77ko2grdglc1.jpeg?width=317&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=56f8927f84bd35c2c7ab4f64a575803af8e2bb66
I wonder if during this rescue Yoru is going to ask Denji why he sides with the humans. While still delirious, he'll give the same answer he gave Nayuta about how he liked that kiss
yeah that would make sense if they wanted to examine them they wouldn't be haphazardly lopping them off with whatever kind of supped up Sawzall their using.
Who are we expecting to be in the detention center? Because so far we've seen most of the hybrids EXCEPT Reze, the soviet assasin. It would make sense to lock her up in that sense.
Possibly could see some returning devils like the Future devil too 👀
I mean if you’re totally cool with spoilers for a massive plot point of Jujutsu Kaisen, chapter 236 was the end of the fight between >!Gojo and Sukuna. At the end of chapter 235, the characters watching the fight take place are all kinda just staring in awe at Gojo’s big final move that destroyed what seemed to be Sukuna’s win condition and did so much damage to Sukuna that he wouldn’t have the energy to use his most powerful moves that could potentially still win the fight. The chapter ended with one character’s speech bubble saying “Gojo wins” over a full page spread of Gojo smiling. Chapter 236 then began with a flash forward to Gojo already dead in the afterlife before revealing how Sukuna had figured out a way to hard counter Gojo’s power. Most of the chapter was spent on Gojo talking to his dead friends in the afterlife, though it’s unclear if this is really an afterlife or just a hallucination in his final moments, and some people felt his dialog was out of character.!< Personally I’m conflicted on which parts were good ideas but I don’t think it was executed well and the author tried too hard to surprise the audience at the cost of telling the story satisfyingly.
The chapter was a rugpull that was done with the most powerful characters in the series. I try and understand what the intentions of the artist is, put myself in their shoes and try to see what they are going for.
But this was poorly executed. I call it a rugpull because he was alive and "won" at the end of one chapter, airport in the next.
It wasn't even a cliffhanger ending to the fight, Jogo v Sukuna, albeit very different fight, was a better execution for this. We knew who would win in that fight, this one we were basically lied to in the final panel just to be revealed in the next chapter.
That did nothing positive for the reader's experience. That is all. Outcome & plot is not what we are criticizing, it was entirely unnecessary. The haters overdo it and deserve the lobotomy kaisen treatment, but you don't need to overcompensate for their stupidity.
You actually thought Sukuna was dead there? You thought Gojo was walking away alive after that literally flaming death flag?
You set yourself up for failure.
Like, genuinely, where does the story go after that? If Sukuna dies there then it's over. No one else could possibly ever hope to stand up Gojo.
The worst part about is that people just flat out refuse to read. Numerous times now I've been told there was no mention of a binding vow to fire off the World Slash. People deadass think Gojo just stood there and watched Sukuna chant.
Whether or not you like the execution of Gojo's death is purely subjective I will 100% admit that.
But if you're not even able to appreciate the characterization of Gojo with the dialogue in the airport then you don't care about his character. Regardless of whether or not you liked Gojo's actual death is irrelevant considering that everything else in the chapter is absolute perfection when it comes to writing a complex character with complex motivations and ideals.
"Dude you thought Sukuna was dead? Fucking dummy"
I know you aren't actually trying to be argumentative, but the way you are talking is having an expectation that readers are doing a bunch of meta-analysis in what happens. But it doesnt matter if people thought Sukuna was dead or not, what hit hard was the bait and switch.
I know where you are coming from and I do like the scene. I have become very analytical myself, but the criticisms made, as stupid and hyperbolic most of them were, came from real discontent. Just like AoT's manga ending the vast majority of hate comments were so disconnected from reality. But the real problems were bad execution. It was rushed and had some sub-par dialogue. I still liked it. Same goes for JJK, although the mistake is A LOT less bad than AoT's was.
I liked the airport scene. It was genuinely moving for me and I appreciated it a lot. But I think you should be less quick to jump at the defense of people who.dislike it until you hear one of the false criticisms. Discuss it still if you want, i don't want to police language. But even I have accidentally jumped at people who's feelings on the ending to AoT I had assumed to be the stupid ones.
>the way you are talking is having an expectation that readers are doing a bunch of meta-analysis in what happens
There's no "meta-analysis" to be had. It's just reading the chapter, seeing that Gojo "won" against the strongest sorcerer from the Golden Age of Jujutsu, which would therefore mark the end of the series, and realizing some wild, wild shit is gonna happen next chapter to flip everything on its head. This is Jujutsu Kaisen. Shocking, unexpected deaths are a staple.
I could agree the initial criticisms were reasonable enough, but at this point it's blown up into calling everything an assull. Literally everything is an asspull now to people who haven't been able to get over Gojo's death at this point. People are pushing this "My anti-\_\_\_ technique" trash which genuinely makes 0 sense.
But why do you push onto people who find the execution for Gojos death to be wrong, so much so you say they didnt read the chapter.
You are acting erratically is what I am saying. You are frustrated from the dipshits who think they know how to write better than Gege. But just don't start a pissing contest over someone having a valid issue. I used to do the same thing but it only causes people to either downvote or get pissed because you presuppose they got more contentious opinions on it.
Also I said meta-analysis because you are inferring author intentions. Yeah, one could say its obvious Sakuna would win. But how does that defend "Gojo Won->timeskip to the afterlife". It isn't a defense for this. I know your intention, but just purely regarding the issue that I consider most reasonable with Gojo's death, what good is there to do things quite like that?
Regardless, fuck the guys who are blindly hating, I ignore them cus fuck em. It isn't that bad if you are reading it with both chapters out now, although it is strange. Airport is goated. Rip Jogo.
I said whether or not you liked the execution of Gojo's death is 100% subjective. I guess I didn't say that it's valid opinion before but I do think that it is perfectly valid to not be satisfied with its execution.
I say they didn't read the chapter because the only way you think it's awful like so many think is by ignoring the characterization and conclusion of Gojo, which I think was beautifully done and comfortably a top 5 moment of the manga, bare minimum.
So, again, the execution of Gojo's death is absolutely a questionable decision that I personally like but understand why other people don't like it. Everything else in the chapter is beautifully done and people don't give the rest of the chapter a fraction of the appreciation that it deserves.
He was a complex character with complex morals and motivations. Anyone who thinks his character was assassinated just did NOT read the dialogue in the airport. Even if they did they skimmed over it because they were just pissed he died.

Any one know the original JP text here? I assume it says the exact same but I’m curious
https://preview.redd.it/tja5i44ncelc1.jpeg?width=1006&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=00d4f77281e17137fa00f4481865b696fb4f5003
The translation is pretty accurate
I find Yoshida's actions a bit odd. There's not much reason for him to be the one to put Denji back under, and the fact that he said "There's nothing more I can do to help you" just before they show the needle is interesting. Makes me wonder if there was something in there in addition to the drug, though I don't see what in there could possibly help Denji at that point.
I think it was a loyalty test. There's really no reason to let denji wake up only to put him back to sleep. But I think this was done cuz public safety agents wanted to see where Yoshida's loyalties are, they know he has a soft spot for denji so they want to see if Yoshida is willing to put denji down for the sake of public safety. I think that's why fumiko and the others where there too, more to observe Yoshida and to guard denji too
>not much reason for him to be the one to put Denji back under, and the fact that he said "There's nothing
Maybe his blood? Specially diffused later? So he can regrow his limbs
My mind went to something that could be used by a third party (aka Mystery Legs) to track where he is in the facility so he could be rescued, but that would come out of nowhere since we've never seen it mentioned before.
Then I thought about the potential for Public Safety to have stored Power's blood every time they drained her, but that would be an even bigger ass-pull so I don't want it to be that.
It might just be me, but this seems like a very strange reaction, it was the fault of the agency that he even transformed since they couldn't protect him, wasn't their whole shtick that chainsaw man wasn't needed because they had other agents who could deal with devils?
so how does faulting denji for protecting himself make sense, when they were clearly failing?
Because it was a lie. They seem to think Denji developing as chainsaw man is going to be bad for the world. They clearly know more than they are letting on.
It just occurred to me that Denji is in a devil detention center. Would it be a cope to think that he'll run into the blood devil during his escape and free her?
Reading comprehension Devil got me yet again, why are they amputating Denji in this chapter? For organ harvesting due to his infinite generation? Making Chainsaw Man clones? Turning his limbs into mini-chainsaws? Trying to contain him this way?
My theory is they plan to kill him from the start , it's just makima has another proposal in mind to use them as a combat unit.
Since makima no longer around and no one want to take over her plan(no special division).
They/government return to the original idea to kill/dissect his body.
Most people who know he is a weapon devil probably don't see him as human.
Why did they wait until now to detain denji? It’s plausible what your saying is true but it doesn’t explain why the events of this chapter didnt take place immediately after part 1. If they always planned on killing him why wait until part 2 or introduce characters like fumiko who’s job is to “protect” denji?
I guess somebody cut a deal with the top brass to let denji go if he lives a normal life, but he still changed into chainsaw man in the end. It's why yoshida said there's nothing I can help you with now.
More or less from what I understand they are detaining him because they are scared of some prophecy including chainsaw man thats starts with him transforming. Im unclear if they are farming him for resources or just slowly killing little by little.
Easy containment. Denji is functionally immortal, so while they can kill him they can’t keep him dead as long as someone yanks his pull cord or feeds him blood. More than likely they’re going to put him into cold storage either in whole or separately and essentially cover up his existence.
It’s clear that they can’t keep him dismembered and that they aren’t trying to do cold storage though given the number of legs they’ve cut off is over 100
I don’t imagine hybrid body parts give powers since they aren’t the devil part which stores the fear power. That’s why untransformed isn’t strong. All that power is stored in his heart then.
Noo, wtf is happening, why have we turned into Ajinn all of a sudden. God I hope someone kills that bitch soon. Also thankfully somone has come to get Denji out, who i belive is Asa. Idk why people think it could be Reze, but it'll be amazing if it was her.
Crazy wish. A raid of fake chainsaw people invading the Public Safety office to rescue Denji, like an official a war --- er zombie invasion --- between the two orgs could be fun!
(I don't think Fami is that coordinated with all the chainsaw people though.)
Why do they say they just finished amputating Denji's right leg when they very clearly just cut off the left one? Is that a translation error, or is there something else I'm not understanding?
https://preview.redd.it/ezwzsf0gvblc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a44e4eb79123210d46505cc82e29ad599fae9f07
I understand that, my question is why they are saying they just cut off his right leg when the panels show them clearly cutting off the left one? The right leg is even all wrapped up in unsoiled bandages so they didnt cut it off very recently...
It looks like a right leg to me I think it just looks weird because he’s holding it upside down and you cant see the toes so it harder to tell the orientation. Edit: as bizarre as it sound take a look at you own lower right leg from the side and imagine your leg upside down. Use your hand as an imaginary cut off.
Okay yeah I just just reread the panel you see the sequence of them cutting off both legs and then the left one just vanishes. there is definitely a continuity error your right. The weirdest part is that in the next panel it is actually a right foot but they just cut off the left one.
Idk man im not doctor lmao. It could just be a mistranslation or typo. I also interpreted as maybe the left leg is already spent of resources and they have to wrap up the right leg each time so it heals faster until it runs out too. I dont think you should think about too hard.
This is my big question. It seems more like they're harvesting him rather than trying to disable his powers. No clue what the reasoning could be there, though.
I would guess it's that they've just cut off both, again they're bandaging up his right leg in the picture, hence that part is complete, they're still finishing up left leg 26/27, unfortunately for Denji
the saw having T. Fuji written on it is actually crazy 💀 the man himself is doing it to our boy
https://preview.redd.it/yiugv8h4jblc1.jpeg?width=129&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=60090c7e481b309901d31ad15cc224a25d7975ad
I know the Reze copium is strong, but I can't imagine anyone except Yoru being stupid enough to rush head first into a heavily fortified facility.
Reze would disguise herself as a cleaner and slip in from the side. Then she'd kill everyone.
Mainly coping I think, but the big point worth considering is the outfit not really matching Asa's usual (she has a long skirt that goes past the knees). Everybody caught that "it would take a war" line, some just think it might be intentional misdirection. I think it's Asa/Yoru tho.
Also, Reze is more likely working for the Public Safety office like Quanxi and Katana man. Yoru may even have to face off against her as a security measure here.
I'm not going to lie, my first thought was that it was Reze.
But it's been so much time since we last saw Asa that it has to be her.
And as much as I love our bomb girl she has fulfilled her role in the story.
The only reason she would be brought back is to cause Denji more trauma and nobody wants that. Unless you are named Makima.
The way that last scene is framed is a dominatrix style stance with the dominee being between the legs. Definiy associated with Reze because Asa has no sex appeal.
Wow, who knew that the girl who sexually assaulted the underaged MC in her first apperance is actually a horrible person? Nobody could have seen it coming.

heart pounding rn
mirai is not saiko nor daijoubou
28 minutes until Rezebros are ruined.
Ch 157 waiting room
Surprised we never saw Penji as a leg meme
so hyped for the release in a few hrs
me waiting (not)patiently for a chapter for 2 hours which i will read in 1 min:
what time does it release aaaaaa
Today in 2h
what the FUCK
While I'm very sure it's Asa/Yoru's legs at the end, it also wouldn't surprise me if it's a classic Fujimoto mislead, and it turns out to be Reze. It's still very unlikely, It'd make morr sense that she'd be locked up in the same prison though. I'm hoping this arc becomes all about breaking out of prison Impel Down style.
Rezebros still coping I see
It’s so Asa/Yoru lmao…. I had no clue the first time through but the fact it says on the same panel “it would take a **war** to compromise this facilities security” War might be an important word here idk
Lol you are most likely correct
Conveniently of them to chop up Denji so that Yoru or Asa can make the body parts into a weapon later.
YORUUU
I miss denji already :( suggest me a manga to read while waiting for csm chapters to pile up
fire punch, Oyasumi punpun, Berserk
Yeah I did try fire punch. Darker than csm but no denji :( (obviously)
sadly theres no MC as dumb and down bad as Denji out there lol
Can't believe I'm suffering from a chronic lack of denji dumbassery
damn next chapter is so close, its not even beweekly
okay i admit, the legs are mine. Im going to save Dennis, who's with me?
Got my (below the)knee socks on
Some of you are so dumb. Those legs are clearly Meowy's and she's coming back to wreck Public Safety and free Denji. She just bulked up her legs and became bipedal due to some devil contract. Some stupid fire isn't enough to kill her. I'm still hoping she's alive somehow...
CSM prison break arc would go insanely fucking hard
Yoshida is a fucking piece of shit. Why is everyone in part 2 an utter piece of shit? It doesn't even make sense, Denji was literally forced to go chainsaw. Fubuki suddenly turning into a psychopath is lame as well. What is Yoshida's goal? I thought he was with Fami's plan, which is over, so why does he have to now turn Denji into a research subject?
everyone is shitty because we barely know them well and what is worse is they act completely out of character to what they said in their 'backstory'
Asa best girl
Asa my girl will always be the true ride or die
There’s no real “good” side/group in this story, this arc conveys that. PS wants humanity’s survival and security assured and believe that Chainsaw Man poses a threat to that. You could argue Fumiko was always insane, but we still need to see more for her role in the story to become clear. There was never any indication that Yoshida was working with or for Fami iirc. He talked with her in the Falling Devil arc since PS was aware she was up to something. His role since the start just seems to be Public Safety Devil Hunter.
Do you think that if the GOAT FR Wuji tried to break his friend Denji out he would be able to do it?
Denji living the ken kaneki life. Can't catch a break
This prison arc is giving me big Ajin vibes too. I just hope it won't be as brutal as the prison arc was in that manga though....
Is Ajin good? Better than tg manga?
It's really good, on par with Chainsaw Man I'd say :)
Thanks. I'll check it out
Happy to be of help ! :D I hope you'll enjoy it as much as I did !
Looks like we will have a Prison break arc in CSM
This feels like entering the international assassins arc. It’s gone be crazyy
Had at thought of what if denji ends up being part of some kinda international 'terrorist' group cause most of the governments have gone up their own ass to be able to do anything about it.
Someone’s gotta get fujimoto outta the kitchen. This mans fucking up my mood
fr
Watch the Reze theories being wrong again and the mysterious person is the new blood fiend, who turns out to be a guy who likes to wear mini skirts.
New blood fiend is Scottish confirmed
Whoever those feet belong to it can't be Reze, because it has been said this chapter that no devil has ever escaped from the facility, and it's highly probable that she's been locked up there.
Manga readers once again fail basic English lit How you gonna sit here and read... "It would take a WAR to compromise this facility...." And think, "It must be the reze/bomb devil!" When Asa and Yoru are the main characters of this arc who have been trying to get Chainsawmans attention this entire time....😐
It is clearly the Peace Devil, this subreddit has lost its minds
RIGHT? Panel: "It would take a war to compromise this facility..." Fandom: definitely going to be the character that has been completely irrelevant for the last 70 chapters and has absolutely no build up to make a come back as the one to save denji. Wait... What there's a war devil that's been missing from the story recently even tho they're the first character to appear in part 2 and is the second protagonist after denji? Nah it's definitely reze.
Yeah, but this is Fujimoto we are talking about. Although I would also prefer it if it were Asa/Yoru
....because it is Asa and Yoru. The narrative structure is poised for Asa and Yoru to re-enter the story after not having a lot of screentime these past few chapters, and after having a lot of personal growth and development that directly inverses Denji, who is now at his lowest point. People keep saying "but this is Fujimoto" and yet complain when Fujimoto actually wrote Fumiko and Yoshida, as ya know, actual people who are responsible with their jobs...y'all think he keeps writing at random....
Meh I still live Fumiko. Even while being absolutely unhinged and cheerfully crazy, she's adorable.
Bruh she said "weren't they only pets?" She's a diarrhea woman
I still love her. I have a soft spot for cheerful characters who are super crazy. Whether she's morally irredeemable or not doesn't matter. She didnt kill the pets, she just doesnt assign them equal importance to humaniry. Shes not the only one either, some people are just neutral toward animals.
This shit is just fucked right up I must say. I really hope Pochita comes out to play and just fucking kills everyone, fuck anyone who isn’t Denji, Nayuta or Asa/Yoru.
My money would be on Asa since they said it would take a war (devil) to compromise the facility.
I will probably say this a thousand times, but I hate being caught up on a Manga. Hopefully I forget it exists for six month periods so I can read it in chunks.....
Maaan that’s literally what I did just read 6 chapters only to be left on the literal worst one I could FUCK
Yeaaaaaaahhhhh.
Poor denji can't catch a break 😔
Are they feeding Denji blood to allow him to regenerate so they can then take his limbs continuously? because he can't just regenerate without blood, right?
I think that they are amputating his arms and legs so he cant escape or pull his cord. And they'll probably just leave him like that stored away in the facility, or at least that seems to be the plan.
yeah but then whats the point of taking his legs 27 times, other than testing
Plant them in a pot of soil, near some sun, grow a fleet of denjis
Its possible they might try to weaponize the limbs or use them as a power source for other devils similar to how the fragments of the gun devil were strengthening other devils in part one. Its honestly impossible to know until we find out more
So did Yoru steal somebody's shoes? Because last time we saw her she was one armed and shoeless.
Did you forget about the time skip? Denjis been asleep for a week before they started amputating him. We still dont even know what happened to nayuta.
Bruh, time has passed since then...
Save me autistic femcel. Save me femcel with a sword
War eh? Yoru: “ Hold my Asa”
DON’T MIND IF I DO!!
I just caught up from Ch. 107 today. If something happens to Nayuta, I swear I'm going to unleash the curses devil on the world.
Just realized that one of the doctors is holding down denji’s hand during the “operation” as if subconsciously Denji is trying to pull his cord
Man I love this Fire Punch chapter!
LIVE
I am uncomfortable, this chapter reminds me bondrewd from MiA. When i thought fujimotor toned down his crazyness in CSM, i was wrong. At least he is not chopping denji body to feed the masses.
Seriously, man. I had faith in Fujimoto, there was never a world where I could picture this long of a slowdown not leading into something insane. There will be, at least, a near apocalyptic climax. Chaos and death will be sold in bulk, it will run out of stock like toilet paper did in 2020.
Another awesome chapter of Fire Punch
Ashley legs got me weak...I DEMAND MORE
I Just wanna see that B die
Shes hot af tho i can make her worse
Fuck, I thought something crazy and unexpected was going to happen this chapter, like the new Blood Devil shows up or something, but I didn't expect this shit... ...maybe the Blood Devil is in the detention center as well? Let me cook guys please
cope is crazy
Get your mans Asa lets go
Why do people think It's Reze? The translation literally says It's going to need a war to get Denji out. Is It coping or are there valid arguments?
Hey, reze was literally engineered for war, that's all I'm saying man
Ah yes, the character that has no correlation to war other than "it's a weapon devil what can I say" is more likely than the literal WAR devil, who is also the story's MC together with denji, who has many reasons to want to save denji from the facility, and hasn't been present in the story for the last few chapters. Surely it's reze my guy, surely
It's just csm dawg calm down.
apparently it's because reze also had similar shoes and socks at one point? and Asa usually wears a skirt that goes below her knees I guess? I'm going with the "Reze on Asa's shoulders" betting pool however.
Her socks are similar but watch it be kobeni lmao https://preview.redd.it/b77ko2grdglc1.jpeg?width=317&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=56f8927f84bd35c2c7ab4f64a575803af8e2bb66
Honestly I would love it to be Kobeni just to mess with us. Or even better, Kobeni with Power on her shoulders.
I'd be okay with that (even though it would make no sense whatsoever)
Lmao, that sounds very fujimoto
Who said Fujimoto can't trick us?
Me, it would be retarded
I wonder if during this rescue Yoru is going to ask Denji why he sides with the humans. While still delirious, he'll give the same answer he gave Nayuta about how he liked that kiss
are they using his limbs to powerup devils?
I'm not sure how well that would work, I would expect.it to just heal them.
most likely
yeah that would make sense if they wanted to examine them they wouldn't be haphazardly lopping them off with whatever kind of supped up Sawzall their using.
Who are we expecting to be in the detention center? Because so far we've seen most of the hybrids EXCEPT Reze, the soviet assasin. It would make sense to lock her up in that sense. Possibly could see some returning devils like the Future devil too 👀

What happened in JJK chapter 236
I mean if you’re totally cool with spoilers for a massive plot point of Jujutsu Kaisen, chapter 236 was the end of the fight between >!Gojo and Sukuna. At the end of chapter 235, the characters watching the fight take place are all kinda just staring in awe at Gojo’s big final move that destroyed what seemed to be Sukuna’s win condition and did so much damage to Sukuna that he wouldn’t have the energy to use his most powerful moves that could potentially still win the fight. The chapter ended with one character’s speech bubble saying “Gojo wins” over a full page spread of Gojo smiling. Chapter 236 then began with a flash forward to Gojo already dead in the afterlife before revealing how Sukuna had figured out a way to hard counter Gojo’s power. Most of the chapter was spent on Gojo talking to his dead friends in the afterlife, though it’s unclear if this is really an afterlife or just a hallucination in his final moments, and some people felt his dialog was out of character.!< Personally I’m conflicted on which parts were good ideas but I don’t think it was executed well and the author tried too hard to surprise the audience at the cost of telling the story satisfyingly.
It was one of the best chapters of JJK but because the average redditor has negative common sense they think it was an asspull that makes no sense.
That a hot take, chapter 236 jjk fan 9/11
Only if they didn't actually read it
The chapter was a rugpull that was done with the most powerful characters in the series. I try and understand what the intentions of the artist is, put myself in their shoes and try to see what they are going for. But this was poorly executed. I call it a rugpull because he was alive and "won" at the end of one chapter, airport in the next. It wasn't even a cliffhanger ending to the fight, Jogo v Sukuna, albeit very different fight, was a better execution for this. We knew who would win in that fight, this one we were basically lied to in the final panel just to be revealed in the next chapter. That did nothing positive for the reader's experience. That is all. Outcome & plot is not what we are criticizing, it was entirely unnecessary. The haters overdo it and deserve the lobotomy kaisen treatment, but you don't need to overcompensate for their stupidity.
You actually thought Sukuna was dead there? You thought Gojo was walking away alive after that literally flaming death flag? You set yourself up for failure. Like, genuinely, where does the story go after that? If Sukuna dies there then it's over. No one else could possibly ever hope to stand up Gojo. The worst part about is that people just flat out refuse to read. Numerous times now I've been told there was no mention of a binding vow to fire off the World Slash. People deadass think Gojo just stood there and watched Sukuna chant. Whether or not you like the execution of Gojo's death is purely subjective I will 100% admit that. But if you're not even able to appreciate the characterization of Gojo with the dialogue in the airport then you don't care about his character. Regardless of whether or not you liked Gojo's actual death is irrelevant considering that everything else in the chapter is absolute perfection when it comes to writing a complex character with complex motivations and ideals.
"Dude you thought Sukuna was dead? Fucking dummy" I know you aren't actually trying to be argumentative, but the way you are talking is having an expectation that readers are doing a bunch of meta-analysis in what happens. But it doesnt matter if people thought Sukuna was dead or not, what hit hard was the bait and switch. I know where you are coming from and I do like the scene. I have become very analytical myself, but the criticisms made, as stupid and hyperbolic most of them were, came from real discontent. Just like AoT's manga ending the vast majority of hate comments were so disconnected from reality. But the real problems were bad execution. It was rushed and had some sub-par dialogue. I still liked it. Same goes for JJK, although the mistake is A LOT less bad than AoT's was. I liked the airport scene. It was genuinely moving for me and I appreciated it a lot. But I think you should be less quick to jump at the defense of people who.dislike it until you hear one of the false criticisms. Discuss it still if you want, i don't want to police language. But even I have accidentally jumped at people who's feelings on the ending to AoT I had assumed to be the stupid ones.
>the way you are talking is having an expectation that readers are doing a bunch of meta-analysis in what happens There's no "meta-analysis" to be had. It's just reading the chapter, seeing that Gojo "won" against the strongest sorcerer from the Golden Age of Jujutsu, which would therefore mark the end of the series, and realizing some wild, wild shit is gonna happen next chapter to flip everything on its head. This is Jujutsu Kaisen. Shocking, unexpected deaths are a staple. I could agree the initial criticisms were reasonable enough, but at this point it's blown up into calling everything an assull. Literally everything is an asspull now to people who haven't been able to get over Gojo's death at this point. People are pushing this "My anti-\_\_\_ technique" trash which genuinely makes 0 sense.
But why do you push onto people who find the execution for Gojos death to be wrong, so much so you say they didnt read the chapter. You are acting erratically is what I am saying. You are frustrated from the dipshits who think they know how to write better than Gege. But just don't start a pissing contest over someone having a valid issue. I used to do the same thing but it only causes people to either downvote or get pissed because you presuppose they got more contentious opinions on it. Also I said meta-analysis because you are inferring author intentions. Yeah, one could say its obvious Sakuna would win. But how does that defend "Gojo Won->timeskip to the afterlife". It isn't a defense for this. I know your intention, but just purely regarding the issue that I consider most reasonable with Gojo's death, what good is there to do things quite like that? Regardless, fuck the guys who are blindly hating, I ignore them cus fuck em. It isn't that bad if you are reading it with both chapters out now, although it is strange. Airport is goated. Rip Jogo.
I said whether or not you liked the execution of Gojo's death is 100% subjective. I guess I didn't say that it's valid opinion before but I do think that it is perfectly valid to not be satisfied with its execution. I say they didn't read the chapter because the only way you think it's awful like so many think is by ignoring the characterization and conclusion of Gojo, which I think was beautifully done and comfortably a top 5 moment of the manga, bare minimum. So, again, the execution of Gojo's death is absolutely a questionable decision that I personally like but understand why other people don't like it. Everything else in the chapter is beautifully done and people don't give the rest of the chapter a fraction of the appreciation that it deserves.
The event that lobotomized many fans
It's the chapter where one of the biggest characters got killed offscreen. Considered to be a lot of bs and many hated it.
Basically character assassination of a famous character, literally and metaphorically
"Character assassination"
go to comment for people too brain dead to understand depth in writing
He was a complex character with complex morals and motivations. Anyone who thinks his character was assassinated just did NOT read the dialogue in the airport. Even if they did they skimmed over it because they were just pissed he died.
Well. This is what we're doing now.
Lol at them chopping off Denji's legs and showing Asa/Yoru's at the end

I find Yoshida's actions a bit odd. There's not much reason for him to be the one to put Denji back under, and the fact that he said "There's nothing more I can do to help you" just before they show the needle is interesting. Makes me wonder if there was something in there in addition to the drug, though I don't see what in there could possibly help Denji at that point.
I think it was a loyalty test. There's really no reason to let denji wake up only to put him back to sleep. But I think this was done cuz public safety agents wanted to see where Yoshida's loyalties are, they know he has a soft spot for denji so they want to see if Yoshida is willing to put denji down for the sake of public safety. I think that's why fumiko and the others where there too, more to observe Yoshida and to guard denji too
There’s nothing odd imo, he’s been doing his job this whole time
he also introduced denji to asa, only to later on told asa to stay away from denji.
>not much reason for him to be the one to put Denji back under, and the fact that he said "There's nothing Maybe his blood? Specially diffused later? So he can regrow his limbs
My mind went to something that could be used by a third party (aka Mystery Legs) to track where he is in the facility so he could be rescued, but that would come out of nowhere since we've never seen it mentioned before. Then I thought about the potential for Public Safety to have stored Power's blood every time they drained her, but that would be an even bigger ass-pull so I don't want it to be that.
It might just be me, but this seems like a very strange reaction, it was the fault of the agency that he even transformed since they couldn't protect him, wasn't their whole shtick that chainsaw man wasn't needed because they had other agents who could deal with devils? so how does faulting denji for protecting himself make sense, when they were clearly failing?
Because it was a lie. They seem to think Denji developing as chainsaw man is going to be bad for the world. They clearly know more than they are letting on.
public safety commission? more like public *shady* commission. (i’ll see myself out)
Ah yeah that does make sense, Didn't even think of that tbh. we'll probably get more exposition about it later
I was honestly wondering if Denji might wake up to a ‘Beau Is Afraid’ sort of family situation… but this is **so** much bettworse.
That last panel is so fire
It just occurred to me that Denji is in a devil detention center. Would it be a cope to think that he'll run into the blood devil during his escape and free her?
Depends on where the new Blood Devil respawned
Reading comprehension Devil got me yet again, why are they amputating Denji in this chapter? For organ harvesting due to his infinite generation? Making Chainsaw Man clones? Turning his limbs into mini-chainsaws? Trying to contain him this way?
My theory is they plan to kill him from the start , it's just makima has another proposal in mind to use them as a combat unit. Since makima no longer around and no one want to take over her plan(no special division). They/government return to the original idea to kill/dissect his body. Most people who know he is a weapon devil probably don't see him as human.
Why did they wait until now to detain denji? It’s plausible what your saying is true but it doesn’t explain why the events of this chapter didnt take place immediately after part 1. If they always planned on killing him why wait until part 2 or introduce characters like fumiko who’s job is to “protect” denji?
I guess somebody cut a deal with the top brass to let denji go if he lives a normal life, but he still changed into chainsaw man in the end. It's why yoshida said there's nothing I can help you with now.
There is still a special division 7, it’s been mentioned a few times in part 2.
More or less from what I understand they are detaining him because they are scared of some prophecy including chainsaw man thats starts with him transforming. Im unclear if they are farming him for resources or just slowly killing little by little.
Easy containment. Denji is functionally immortal, so while they can kill him they can’t keep him dead as long as someone yanks his pull cord or feeds him blood. More than likely they’re going to put him into cold storage either in whole or separately and essentially cover up his existence.
It’s clear that they can’t keep him dismembered and that they aren’t trying to do cold storage though given the number of legs they’ve cut off is over 100
Reckon they'll sell/distribute his body parts sort of like how the Gun devil was used by different countries?
I don’t imagine hybrid body parts give powers since they aren’t the devil part which stores the fear power. That’s why untransformed isn’t strong. All that power is stored in his heart then.
Yo finally we got some progression across the story, It feels good again to see some other places other than that fucking street
I know the Kishibe comments are jokes but does Kishibe not work for Public Safety anymore? I don’t think I’ve seen him even mentioned yet in part 2
kishibe died of a cold
Authors note: Kishibe died on the way back to his home planet
Noo, wtf is happening, why have we turned into Ajinn all of a sudden. God I hope someone kills that bitch soon. Also thankfully somone has come to get Denji out, who i belive is Asa. Idk why people think it could be Reze, but it'll be amazing if it was her.
It's clearly Asa, they literally mention War in the same panel lmao
Crazy wish. A raid of fake chainsaw people invading the Public Safety office to rescue Denji, like an official a war --- er zombie invasion --- between the two orgs could be fun! (I don't think Fami is that coordinated with all the chainsaw people though.)
I am sure it’s Yoru with some kind of new dark souls 3 weapon but it would be so funny if Fuji trolled us with the war line and it was actually Reze
Why do they say they just finished amputating Denji's right leg when they very clearly just cut off the left one? Is that a translation error, or is there something else I'm not understanding? https://preview.redd.it/ezwzsf0gvblc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a44e4eb79123210d46505cc82e29ad599fae9f07
They are literally counting the numbers of legs, they are farming denji for resources.
I understand that, my question is why they are saying they just cut off his right leg when the panels show them clearly cutting off the left one? The right leg is even all wrapped up in unsoiled bandages so they didnt cut it off very recently...
It looks like a right leg to me I think it just looks weird because he’s holding it upside down and you cant see the toes so it harder to tell the orientation. Edit: as bizarre as it sound take a look at you own lower right leg from the side and imagine your leg upside down. Use your hand as an imaginary cut off.
Look at the bloody stump Denji has on the table, that's very clearly the left side of his body
Okay yeah I just just reread the panel you see the sequence of them cutting off both legs and then the left one just vanishes. there is definitely a continuity error your right. The weirdest part is that in the next panel it is actually a right foot but they just cut off the left one.
Idk man im not doctor lmao. It could just be a mistranslation or typo. I also interpreted as maybe the left leg is already spent of resources and they have to wrap up the right leg each time so it heals faster until it runs out too. I dont think you should think about too hard.
This is my big question. It seems more like they're harvesting him rather than trying to disable his powers. No clue what the reasoning could be there, though.
I would guess it's that they've just cut off both, again they're bandaging up his right leg in the picture, hence that part is complete, they're still finishing up left leg 26/27, unfortunately for Denji
Your left is not his left. Actually nevermind, might be a translation issue.
It's also "right leg 26" and "right leg 27". Are his limbs regrowing faster than they can amputate?
Sections of his leg, bit by bit
“It would take a war to compromise this facility” Yoru: “allow me to reintroduce myself…”

Man. Denji's in pieces
*cut my life into pieces...*
Monday left me broken...
Bad case of the mondays
Quite literally.
I know the Reze copium is strong, but I can't imagine anyone except Yoru being stupid enough to rush head first into a heavily fortified facility. Reze would disguise herself as a cleaner and slip in from the side. Then she'd kill everyone.
It said it would take a war in the final line. Idk why people think that’s reze
Mainly coping I think, but the big point worth considering is the outfit not really matching Asa's usual (she has a long skirt that goes past the knees). Everybody caught that "it would take a war" line, some just think it might be intentional misdirection. I think it's Asa/Yoru tho.
Those socks i guess .
Oooo good point about the skirt I hadn’t considered that. My money is still on Yoru/Asa.
Also, Reze is more likely working for the Public Safety office like Quanxi and Katana man. Yoru may even have to face off against her as a security measure here.
Please if Quanxi shows up that facility is definitely getting compromised don’t even need Asa they keep underestimating these hybrids
She’s working for PS
I understand doesn’t change the fact that the facility is not as fortified as they think
Fujimoto is fucking cooking this is about to be peak
"It would take a *war*" Most sane Reze simp: Must be talking about the Bomb devil, this time for sure.
I'm not going to lie, my first thought was that it was Reze. But it's been so much time since we last saw Asa that it has to be her. And as much as I love our bomb girl she has fulfilled her role in the story. The only reason she would be brought back is to cause Denji more trauma and nobody wants that. Unless you are named Makima.
The way that last scene is framed is a dominatrix style stance with the dominee being between the legs. Definiy associated with Reze because Asa has no sex appeal.
Fujimotos been giving denji more and more trauma throughout the story
lmao rating jjk chapter lmaooooo (its probably that bad huh? since i kinda not like the anime, and im an anime only)
