Denji/Synopsis

The story of Denji from Chainsaw Man.
==History==
===Public Safety Saga===
===Intro arc===
Denji was born in Japan around the year 1980. When Denji was young his mother passed away from unknown heart illness, while his father accumulated a large debt of 38 million yen to the Yakuza and became a violent alcoholic who frequently abused his son. Eventually, Denji's father attacked his son so viscously the young boy was forced to kill him in self defense, this event was so traumatic, Denji repressed the memory of what he did. The Yakuza then forces Denji to pay off the debt in his father place threatening to murder him if he doesn't meet his pay quotas. As Denji is mourning his father's death at his grave he finds Pochita aka the original Chainsaw Devil. However Pochita is heavily injured thus Denji offers to heal him with his blood on the condition they form a contract so he can use Pochita to pay off his debt. Over the years the two bond together as friends as the young-boy also convinced his boss to keep Pochita since the dog might be a valuable asset in finding money.
Years later a now sixteen year old Denji becomes a private devil hunter killing devils for a quick buck to pay off his debt like taking down a Tomato devil for the Debt Collector. He also chops down trees and sells his own body parts like his eye and one of his testicles. However despite his efforts the debt collector pays him a miniscule amount for his services which is barley enough to cover food, water and rent so all Denji can afford for dinner is a measly slice of bread. A member of the Yakuza then drives up and offers Denji 100 yen to eat a cigarette to which he immediately accepts desperate for money but spits it out as soon as the Yakuza leaves. Denji then goes back to his house to eat the bread he bought with Pochita. Denji then laments that he probably won't be able to pay off debt before he dies and voices his dream to get a girlfriend, and eat jam with bread. However suddenly Denji coughs up blood just as his mother did causing him and Pochita much concern. Suddenly the Debt Collector knocks on his door and gives him a new devil hunting job. He drives Pochita and Denji to a abandoned warehouse and although the Debt Collector is grateful for Denji's loyalty but nothless betrays and stabs him in the chest. The old man explains that they made a contract with the Zombie Devil in exchange for it lending them its powers, and it was a foolish decision since the Zombie Devil cannot grant them anything except turning them into mindless zombies. Denji and Pochita were then shredded by the minions of the Zombie Devil, and killed, with their remains being thrown into a dumpster. Denji then hallucinates Pochita and wonder if he took over his body just like her offered. However, Pochita has a better idea he claims that he will resurrect Denji by becoming his heart and in exchage all he asks is that Denji continue to follow his dreams.
Denji then emerges from the dumpster anew with a chainsaw starter cord on his chest now a devil-human hybrid much to the Zombie Devil's shock. Denji questions them on the Yakuza on futility of even making a contract wth the Zombie Devil when they have all the power they wanted. Denji then decides that if they are going to get in the way of acheving his and Pochita's dreams then they needed to die. Denji then pulls the starter cord on his chest and transforms into a devil with chainsaws protruding out of his arms and head and attacks his assailants. Denji cheerfully notes with the Yakuza gone, he won't have anybody to pay debts to, thus freeing himself from them. After eliminating the Yakuza zombies, Denji slices up the Zombie Devil and his minions.
After the massacre a group of Public Safety agents enter the warehouse and spot Denji. One of the agents a beautiful young woman walks up to Denji and hugs him. This causes Denji to revert back to his human form. Although one of the agents assumes him to be a fiend the girl does not believe this to be the case. She then tells Denji that she is a devil hunter from public safety and since her job is to kill devils she is inclined to slay Denji now that he is one. However she offers to spare him in exchange for becoming her "pet" and even offers him good food like bread with jam. Denji seduced by the woman's charms easily accepts. The two then get into a car and Denji starts to get hungry. The woman then offers to buy him food and they stop at a restaurant. Suddenly a man runs into the store and explains his daughter was kidnapped by a muscle devil. The woman then forces Denji to rescue the man's daughter although Denji is hesitant the woman threatens him saying she doesn't need a pet that says no only "yes" or "woof". Denji then is forced to fight the Muscle Devil. He runs into a field and actually finds the muscle devil and the girl playing. The girl explains that her and the Muscle Devil are friends and begs her not to kill it. Denji, being reminded of his relationship with Pochita agrees. However this was a ruse and it's revealed the Muscle Devil took over the girls body and intends to kill Denji for interfering. However, Denji manages to defeat the devil and rescue the girl. Back at the restaurant Denji passes out from the blood loss he sustains while in his chainsaw form. When he wakes up the woman gives him udon as if he were a dog eating treats. The woman finally introduces herself as Makima and although Denji shows sadness and remorse for Pochita's "death", Makima reassures him stating that Pochita lives on as his heart, she can apparently tell because of her keen sense of smell. Denji then asks Makima want kind of guy she like to which she responds the "Denji kind", much to Denji's pleasure.
After Makima provides him the promised treat, Denji is taken to the Public Saftey headquarters and given a uniform for his job. However much to his chagrin he is assigned as a junior to Aki Hayakawa. Although Denji is sad to learn he won't be working with Makima, he is assured by the latter that if he does his job well he might get to work with her someday. Aki and Denji go on a patrol only for former to be irritated at Denji's supposed lax nature, lack of seriousness and his crush on Makima. Aki then beats Denji up in an alley and tells him that with his ridiculous goals and aspirations he is not worthy of being a devil hunter and tells him to just leave. However Denji runs up and kicks Aki in the balls telling him that his reason for being a devil hunter as well as his dreams are just as important as anyone else. The two get into a fight where Denji kicks Aki in the balls so many times he collapses from his injuries. Denji carries him back to Makima and lies to her saying he got attacked by a testicle devil to which Aki attemps to tell Makima the truth to no avail. Denji then moves in with Aki in his apartment and gets to live the life he always dreamed of. He gets three square meals a day, can finally take baths, sleep in a bed and best of all eat toast with jam.
Later Aki and Denji are assigned to a house to kill a Fiend. Denji is confused as he doesn't know what a fiend is to which Aki tells explains that a fiend is a devil that takes control of a human corpse. They enter the house and find the fiend feasting on bird. Aki orders Denji to use his powers and kill the fiend but Denji simply uses his axe to decapitate it and be done with it. Aki questions why he didn't just transform and kill it to which Denji explains that going into his chainsaw form hurts him and he wanted the fiend to die quick and painless. Aki gets angered by this and tells Denji that a devil killed his family and if he sees an opportunity to make one suffer he would take it. As Aki leaves Denji privately admits he just didn't want to get blood all over the porn magazines the fiend had. Denji thinks about how he is content with the way he lives but he desires something else. It's at that moment he has an epiphany he makes it his next goal to fondle a woman's boobs.
===Bat Devil arc===
The next day Makima announces that going forward Denji will be assigned with a partner, a fiend named Power. Denji quickly grows suspicious of her finding it unethical for a fiend to be a devil hunter, but his mind quickly changes one he see's that Power is a hot girl with large breasts. Later Power and Denji go on patrol out in the city in which Power annoys him with her arrogant attitude and spoiled nature. Denji questions why there are no devils in the area to which Power claims that it likely due to her presence as she used to be the powerful Blood Devil. Denji is upset at this as he wanted to kill more devil to impress Makima. Suddenly Power smells something in the distance a Sea Cucumber Devil and promptly yet sadistically kills it much to Denji's shock and horror. Makima finds out about the incident and displays disappointment int the two for attacking a devil that was being hunted by a private devil hunter. Power tries to pin the blame on Denji to avoid Makima's wrath but Denji denies this and the two get into a argument before being broken up by Makima. Later in a public safet breakroom Denji kicks back and gets drinks from a vending machine. It's here Power explains that she only joined Public Safety to rescue her pet cat Meowy from the Bat Devil. Denji shows little sympathy nor care for her situation until Power offers Denji the chance to grope her boobs in return which quickly fires up Denji and giver him motivation to rescue Meowy. On the way to the Bat Devil's location Denji tells Power about his own pet, Pochita and how he died but still lives on in his heart, Power calls this notion ridiculous however.
The two then approach a abandoned house but to his shock Power betrays Denji and knocks him out intending to feed him to the Bat Devil in exchange for Meowy. When Denji wakes up he finds himself in the cluthces of the Bat Devil who consumes some of his blood and regrows his arm. The Bat Devil however betrays and devours Power and Meowy whole. Denji quicky transforms into Chainsaw Man and takes down the Bat Devil freeing Power and her cat, although he infers he only did so to grope Power's breasts as promised. Suddenly however the Bat Devil's ex-girlfriend the Leech Devil appears and cuts off Denji's arm, although she is upset about Bat's death she is willing to spare Denji because she thinks he is "cute" but is still intent to kill Power and Meowy. Despite, Denji losing alot of blood and being barley able to transform he is intent to fight the Leech Devil to achive his goal of squeezing Power's boobs. However, Denji is too weak to beat the Leech but is rescued by Aki and his Fox Devil. Denji is taken to the hospital and is informed that his arm automatically reattached when he got a blood transfusion revealing that he can regenerate from fatal injuries like a devil. Denji calls out Aki's hypocrisy for hating Devil even though he used the Fox Devil to kill the Leech. Aki claims that he simply made a contract with the Devil and it's nothing friendly. Aki warns Denji to be careful near Power as a fiend is no different from a regular Devil, but Denji disagrees as he thinks Power is genuinely good at heart.
Later on Denji and Aki are informed by Makima that Power will be living with them from now on, much to their annoyance as she refuses to eat vegetables, take baths or even flush the toilet. However, Power honors her agreement with Denji and allows him to fondle her breasts three times. The first time he does so he realizes Power is wearing breast pads meaning they weren't that big to begin with. After fondling her breasts he feels a sense of dissatisfaction with the act. Later, Makima has Denji fill out paperwork during which he confides about his disappointment with fondling his first breasts. Makima then explains to Denji that the reason he felt no pleasure in the act was likely because he needed a emotional connection with the person he is getting physical with. Makima the has Denji touch one of her breast causing him collapse on the ground in shock and disbelief. Makima then tells Denji that she has a new task for him; he must kill an extremely powerful devil, one that has killed millions of people and is feared world wide, that devil being none other than the Gun Devil. Makima then sweetens the deal and offers Denji one request and it can be anything he likes. Denji then becomes intent to kill the Gun Devil and gain said request.

The devil introduces himself as the Eternity Devil and claims that he will set them free under a contract on the condition they give him the heart of Denji. Although Denji disagree and tries to argue he might double cross them Himeno refutes this claiming that contracts are too powerful for both devils or humans to break.
However, Kobeni and Hirokazu crack under the pressure and try to murder Denji and give him to Eternity to escape the hotel. However, they are both stopped by Himeno and Aki. It's at that point Aki tries to use his sword to kill the Eternity Devil but Himeno dissuades him not to because he could die by using the sword. Eventually most of the group even Power votes that Denji should just scarifies himself. Seeing there is no other way out Denji reluctantly agrees but instead transforms into Chainsaw Man and opts to fight the devil instead. Although Denji tears away at the Eternity Devil's flesh it does no good as he needs to destroy his heart to actually kill him. Denji ends up getting heavily injured during the fight but consumes some of the Eternity Devil's blood and instantly heals. It's at this point Denji realizes that he can regenerate by drinking blood and opts to torture Eternity and drink his blood to heal himself when needed, comparing it too a perpetual motion machine.

Denji then introduces himself to everyone and reveals that he is only sixteen years old much to everyone's shock. Denji then gloats about how he is about to get his first kiss only for Makima to enter the restaurant to question what he meant by this. Fearing he might be “betraying” Makima, Denji attempts to take back what he said only for Himeno to question if they’re still going to kiss, leaving Denji conflicted.
However suddenly, Himeno begins to kiss Denji just as she promised, although he initially enjoys it his pleasure soon turns to terror and disgust when Himeno accidents vomits in his mouth. Denji then spends the rest of the night in the bathroom vomiting out of disgust while being comforted by Hirokazu. Later Denji confides in Makima about how horrible his first kiss was. Makima feeling “sympathy” for him takes a Chupa Chups lollipop from her mouth and puts it in Denji’s to give him an indirect kiss to wash out the taste of vomit. A intoxicated Himeno then takes Denji to her house where he asks for water to which she gives it to him orally via another kiss. Himeno then offers to have sex with him to which Denji initially agrees to but opts out at the last minute and sleeps on the floor.

===Katana Man arc===
Sometime later Himeno, Aki, Power and Denji meet up at a restaurant for lunch and hear gunshots in the distance but dismiss them and chalk them up to drum beats (when in all actuality it’s the Yakuza assassinating their allies). Suddenly a man in the next table over converses with them and complains about the quality of the restaurant’s ramen. He claims that it is probably because of his high culinary standard as his grandfather used to spoil him. He then reveals that his grandfather was none other than the Debt Collector the same one that Denji killed for betraying him. He then pulls out a gun shooting Denji, Aki and Himeno. He then transforms into Samurai Sword revealing that he is a hybrid just like Denji. Aki manages to use his sword imbued with the power of the Curse Devil to take Samurai Sword down but he is easily able to recover with the help of his partner Akane Sawatari.

Later they are taken to a graveyard dedicated to all the devil hunters who died on duty. It is here they are introduced to senior devil hunter Kishibe by Makima who claims he will be training them. Kishibe then suddenly attacks Denji and Power by breaking their spines. He then gives them some blood to heal their injuries. The three then partake in brutal training with Kishibe who manages to gravely injure them multiple times before he calls it a day. Although both Denji and Power grow fearful of how they are being treated contemple running away but they instead opt to defeat Kishibe by using their brains and forming a fool proof strategy. The next day when Kishibe goes to Denji and Power’s house the two attempt to sneak attack him but this fails miserably. Kishibe claims to be impressed with their efforts and leaves much to the two’s relief. However Kishibe lied and throws a knife at Denji’s head telling the two to “Never trust what the hunter says”.
Later on Denji, Aki, and Power partake in the operation to capture Samurai Sword and Akane. However they are soon swarmed by an army of zombies just like the ones who attacked and killed Denji earlier. Power fights them off leaving Denji enough time to find Samurai Sword and his men. Samurai Sword actually tells Denji the he might surrender if he gives him a valid reason for killing his grandfather. Denji tries to tell him that he became a zombie but Samurai doesn’t believe him and even then tells him that even killing a zombie should make someone remorseful and calls out Denji for being “heartless”. The two hybrids then transform and clash in an epic battle. The two fight in top of a train and Samurai questions as to what drives Denji to keep fighting, to which he responds that he just fights to keep the life he has now. The two continue to fight and enter the inside of the train. Samurai manages to cut off both Denji’s arms but Denji manages to rush at him and catch him off-guard by cutting him in half with a chainsaw from his leg. Denji then manages to arrest Samurai even healing them both by using their devil triggers. In an act of humiliation he strips Samurai to his underwear and him and Aki kick him in the balls countless times as revenge for Himeno’s death. After the battle Denji and the gang head home and rest with Denji falling asleep. As he is sleeping he dreams of himself as a child and see’s a door in front of him. Suddenly Pochita’s voice echoes in his dream and tells Denji to never open the door no matter what.

Denji then wakes up from his peculiar dream in a cold sweat he looks over and sees both Power and Aki sleeping beside him. Power is awakened by Denji's shout which causes him to notice something odd. Power's horns have grown exponentially which confuses Denji causes him to question Power about this. However an irritated Power punches him in the chest so hard he hits the ceiling. Denji then calls Makima over to help determine why Power's horns grew. She then reveals that Power had consumed a excessive amount of blood when she fought the zombies the other day. This caused her to not only become more powerful but more aggressive. Makima then decides to take Power to get her excess blood drained and decides to assign him with a new partner for the time being. Denji is then introduced to the Shark Fiend, Beam who is weirdly loyal and subservient to Denji calling him "Master Chainsaw".

The two then watch various movies until midnight to which they have various reactions and criticisms to. One movie in particular was so emotional that it causes both Denji and Makima to cry.
As they are leaving the theater Denji remembers Samurai Swords words about him being heartless which prompts him to ask if he truly has a heart. Makima presses her head against his heart and confirms that he does much to Denji's pleasure. The next day Denji walks down a street, happily thinking of the date, as Beam trails him silently underground. Noting a charity stand, Denji donates money as a sign of his newfound "heart", and is given a flower as thanks. He happily walks away, eating the flower, to the bewilderment of the charity girl.
As he walks, Denji thinks of Makima, and how her words were able to calm his pent-up concerns. He assures himself that he will use the wish she promised him to ask her out, and thinks how she will be the only girl he will ever be romantically interested in. Suddenly, it begins raining, and Denji runs for cover. Hiding in a telephone booth, Denji tries to wait out the storm. A young woman enters suddenly, surprising him. She apologizes and begins laughing, much to his confusion. Gradually, her laughter turns to tears, before saying that his face reminds her of her deceased dog. Denji suddenly begins gagging, and pulls the flower out of his throat, presenting it to the girl with a flourish. She thanks him and smiles, stunning him. As the rain stops, she invites him to visit her workplace: A cafe called Futamichi. The girl walks through some alleyways into work. As she puts on an apron, she sees Denji is already waiting for her at a table. The girl sits next to him, ordering a pair of coffees for the two of them, which Denji drinks with a disgusted grimace. She laughs and flirtatiously touches his shoulder, as a flustered Denji wonders whether she likes him. The girl introduces herself as Reze, and Denji responds with his name. Denji worriedly thinks of Makima, as he realizes that his feelings for Reze are growing. 
Denji ends up becoming so enamoured with Reze he goes to her diner everyday for a full week just to see her. Denji then notices Reze studying and the two have a disscussion about school. Reze trys to teach Denji to read but he ends up comically writing the word "Balls" because it's the only word he knows how to spell. Denji claims that he wishes he could go to school with Reze to which she offers to take him there. The two sneak into a school at night and Reze claims that she is a little scared and holds Denji's hands. Denji then apologizes to Makima in his head claiming his body is moving on it's own. The two enter a classroom and Reze writes a math problem on the wall which Denji solves. Then, Reze writes the word "Big ass" to which Denji immedietly knows how to spell, prompting Reze to jokingly call him a pervert. Denji then claims that he thinks he understands what school is about now. Reze then asks if he ever wnet to school to which Denji reveals that he never once did. Reze shows pity on him and claims that he should be enjoying his life and not hunting Devils for Public Saftey. Although, Denji argues that he has all he needs; a bed to sleep in and three meals a day, Reze points out that is the bear minimum for living in Japan. Reze then offers Denji to go swimming in the school's pool. Reze then suggests they go skinny dipping since there is no one else there but the two of them. Denji is reluctant to do so but he decides to anyway. He then takes a cannonball in the pool. Reze then decides to teach Denji how to swim. However it soon begins raining and the two head inside. Reze then poses Denji a philisophical question; which would he rather be the Town Mouse or the City Mouse. Denji chooses the City Mouse as he would want to be surrounded by commidites even if there is more present danger in the city. Reze the offers to take denji to a local festival to which Denji accepts as long as it's after work. Denji then compliments on how cute Reze is.

Suddenly Reze then kisses Denji as the fireworks go off. However the kiss soon turns into a nightmare as it's revelead that Reze bit off Denji's tounge.
