Weaknesses: Aki's single-minded obsession with killing the Gun Devil has led him to make several costly contracts with Devils, significantly reducing his lifespan. His contract with the Curse Devil for instance, requires him to stab his opponent four timesChainsaw Man Chapter 24, and using it has already shortened his lifespan to just two yearsChainsaw Man Chapter 29. | Has replaced the Cursed Sword and his mindset slowly changes to a goal of keeping Denji & Power safe | None notable.
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
* Curse Devil Contract: Aki had a contract with the Curse Devil which granted him a nail-like sword. In order for the contract to work properly, Aki must point the nail anywhere on his target's body; then saying the word "fire", the hand of the Curse Devil will appear and flicks the back end of the nail to inflict damage. By stabbing his enemy three times with the nail, Aki could summon the Curse Devil to seize the enemy and inflict massive damage upon them, potentially killing them in the process. In order to use it, Aki's life would be significantly shortened.

* Fox Devil Contract: Aki originally had a contract with the Fox Devil. In exchange for feeding him part of his body, Aki could use his power in combat by raising a hand and saying the word "Kon" (コン?), causing the Fox Devil's head to appear to instantly bite down on the target's body, swallowing him whole or tearing him apart. Aki lost the ability to summon him after he used the Fox Devil recklessly against the Katana Man.Chainsaw Man Chapter 10

* Future Devil Contract: After losing favor with the Fox Devil, Aki was taken to the Future Devil that is held prisoner by Public Safety and managed to gain a contract to use its abilities in exchange for letting the Future Devil live inside his right eye.
**Precognition: Aki had the ability to see a few seconds into the future. He used this to predict his opponent's oncoming attacks and plan accordingly.Chainsaw Man Chapter 35
**Summoning: Due to his contract, Aki could summon Future Devil by calling him. While the Devil says that Aki must say "The Future Rules" to make him comeChainsaw Man Chapter 73, this was not an actual requirement.
* Control Devil Contract: Aki made a contract with the Control Devil, in exchange for his entire being he gained her power, however, as he was completely under her control, he was unable to use it.
