## Plot

### History

Meowy was brought under the care of Power, who originally intended to fatten up Meowy before eating it. Power eventually becomes attached to Meowy and they were together for a long time until Meowy was captured by the Bat Devil, who promised that if a human were brought to him he would return Meowy.

### Bat Devil arc

When Power returned with Denji, Meowy was eaten by the Bat Devil as punishment for bringing him blood that tasted disgusting. Meowy was freed along with Power after the defeat of the Bat Devil.

### International Assassins arc

It seemed that Meowy frequently slept with Denji rather than Power which slightly annoyed her.

### Gun Devil arc

Kishibe took care of Meowy temporarily when Aki, Power, and Denji went on a trip to Hokkaido for a couple of days. Meowy was then returned when they came back.

Later, upon hearing that the Gun Fiend is at the door, Denji quickly told Power to grab Meowy and run. The Gun Fiend later managed to catch up with Power and Meowy and attack them but luckily, Denji was able to protect both of them from the Gun Fiend, letting both Power and Meowy escape safely.

### Control Devil arc

Denji is now taking care of Meowy after Power's death.

When Asa comes over to Denji's apartment to watch movies, Meowy is seen sleeping while Nayuta and Denji are eating dinner.

### Current Arc

Meowy was seemingly murdered by Barem Bridge with the help of the other Weapon Hybrids when they set Denji's apartment on fire.

## Relationships

### Power

Meowy was cared for by Power. They had a close relationship, as Meowy was one of Power's only companions during her lonely times. Power even gets agitated when Meowy sleeps with Denji rather than her. They shared a close bond together, and Power wasn't afraid of sacrificing Denji to the Bat Devil so that she could have Meowy Back. Power and Meowy have very deep feelings for each other.

### Denji

Meowy has been shown to sleep with Denji more frequently than Power, indicating that Meowy feels affection towards Denji.

### Nayuta

## Chapter Chronology

**Welcome to Hell** (ウェルカムトゥーデヘル, *Werukamu tū de Heru*?) is the 64th chapter of the Chainsaw Man manga series.

## Summary

As the group survey their surroundings in Hell, Aki kicks Denji awake. Immediately, Denji re-actively begins to transform, but is only able to make the tip of the chainsaw appear from his head, as Quanxi suggests he is low on blood. She requests a truce amongst the various parties, whilst they decipher their current situation. She turns and notes that the Fiends; Power, Long, Pingtsi and Violence Fiend; are all suffering complete nervous breakdowns. Aki asks Angel Devil of their current situation, to which Angel Devil, in a petrified daze, explains they are in Hell.

Quanxi asks Pingtsi if they have a means of escape, however Pingtsi frightenedly explains they are being watched by Devils with power far greater than that of the Gun Devil: The Primal Fears, whom have never experienced death. In desperation, Pingtsi asks permission to commit suicide, only to weep as she is refused by Quanxi. She cries out as one of the doors opens and a black drop of liquid falls out and hits the ground- The Darkness Devil.

The group ready themselves to fight, as the darkness surrounds them, a row of laterally bisected astronauts appear praying in a Buddhist pose. In an instant, the Darkness Devil moves past them, having detached all of their arms from their bodies. Each person reacts with quiet shock, as Tolka- now fully under Santa Clause's control- offers the Darkness Devil Denji's heart in return for the power to kill Makima.

Outside of Hell, Santa Clause receives a small fragment of the Darkness Devil's flesh, and swallows it whole.

## Chapter Chronology

**The Return of Chainsaw Man** (帰ってきたチェンソーマン, *Kaettekita Chensōman*?) is the 151st Chapter of the *Chainsaw Man* manga.

## Summary

Fumiko gazes upon the Whip Hybrid and her coworkers; one is dead whilst the other two are seriously injured. Before she can react, she is grabbed by the Spear Hybrid, who restrains her from shooting Barem again. Confused, she begins to ask how the Hybrids escaped custody, only for Whip Hybrid to cut her off and explain that the Fire Devil contractors attacks distracted Public Safety enough for them to get away. Denji calls them monsters, but Miri, still believing that what they’re doing is right, tries to explain their position; this entire rampage is all done to prevent Nostradamus’s Prophecy, including setting the house on fire. Livid, Denji asks if Miri’s insane, only for Miri to respond by asking him if he’s angry and then encouraging him to unleash his fury so he could save the world. Whip Hybrid comments on Miri’s gullibility, as Barem rises from his gunshot wound.

Acting fast, Nayuta tries to use her chains of command on him, ordering him to bite off his own tongue and drop dead. Barem is somehow able to resist, walking over to Nayuta and grabbing her by the throat, before telling Denji that if he moves, she dies. He hypothesises that he’s able to resist Nayuta’s control due to still being infatuated with Makima - regardless if it is against his own will or not - and that if Makima was here, she would be able to handle the Death Devil situation far better than Fami currently is. He then reveals his true feelings towards Denji, and how he hates that he hypocritically denied the world Makima’s vision of absolute peace, whilst revelling in the peaceful life Public Safety gave him. Nayuta unleashes a chain into one of the remaining Public Safety members, ordering him to shoot a second bullet at Barem, which causes him to drop her. With many lives on the line, Denji goes to pull his ripcord, only to spot Pochita waving at him from the burning wreckage. Pulling the cord, he collapses to the ground. Nayuta rushes over in panic, only to ask Denji why he’s laughing.

## Chapter Chronology

**Minor** (未 (み) 成 (せい) 年 (ねん) , *Miseinen*?) is the 35th chapter of the Chainsaw Man manga series.

## Summary

Aki moves forwards, deflecting most of the Ghost Devil's attacks with the Future Devil's future-sight. However, he is quickly overwhelmed by the many arms of the Ghost Devil, and is soon being strangled by the creature.

In a flashback, he remembers an early meeting with Himeno, in which she offered him a cigarette. Realizing he's underage, however, she takes it back, and promises to give it back when he needs to "Rely On Something".

In the present, Aki looks up, having been released from the Ghost Devil's grasp. From amongst it's mass, Himeno's right arm reaches out, holding the cigarette. Taking it, Aki sees the word's 'Easy Revenge' written across it.

Taking a deep breath, he steps forward. Remembering Himeno's advice, he reflects that the Ghost Devil is blind, and senses its surroundings based on fear. Remaining calm, Aki climbs atop it, before promising Himeno that he'll die soon, and decapitates the Devil.

A shocked Sawatari moves to summon the Snake Devil, but is stopped by Kobeni holding a knife to her throat. Aki orders Kobeni not to kill her. He asks why she didn't quit the bureau, to which Kobeni awkwardly responds she was "Close To Earning A Bonus".

She visits a supermarket where she shops for apples. She asks the store clerk who's pinned against the ceiling, which apples would pair best with human flesh. The clerk, utterly terrified slurrs her words trying to apologize. The Falling Devil reassures her that she means no harm and leaves the store without paying for the apples.

Suddenly she remembers that she forgot about one ingredient, a man's head so she proceeds to ask if anyone is willing to lend her one. A group of Devil Hunter snipers open fire destroying her body. She instantly regenerates revealing that she is immune to any and all attacks humanity presently posseses. Claiming she doesn't want meaningless bloodshed she asks again if anyone would be willing to spare her their head. The devil hunters open fire again. Annoyed she uses her ability to obliterate the area around her. Amidst the chaos she quickly beheads one of the devil hunters and takes their head.

With all the ingredients for the sauce obtained she prepares to go after Asa, but Denji arrives ripping her apart with his chainsaws in a surprise attack from behind.

## Summary

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.

The Bat Devil then drank some of Denji's blood and regenerated his arm back. Then instead of returning the cat, he ate it whole and then ate Power too. As the Bat Devil tried to fly away and attack citizens, Denji grabbed his leg and went with him and transformed into Chainsaw Man to fight him. He quickly cut the Bat Devil's arm again and proceeded on beating him. The Bat Devil tried to fight back and blew Denji away with his attack, but Denji was able to get back up and continue fighting him. Denji kept cutting the Bat Devil until he killed him and saved Power and Meowy. In that moment a Leech Devil, the girlfriend of the Bat Devil appeared and attacked Denji. Due to the blood loss, Denji wasn't able to completely manifest as the Chainsaw Man, but he still started fighting the Leech Devil. As Denji was about to lose and be eaten by the Leech Devil, Aki Hayakawa arrived and used his Fox Devil to eat the Leech Devil and save Denji.

Waking up in the hospital, Aki was interrogating Denji to learn of the events that occurred, but Denji protected Power. Later Makima made Power live with Aki and Denji and their daily roommate troubles appeared. Power then called Denji, to fulfil her promise for saving her cat. She gave him three squeezes for saving the cat, killing the Bat and protecting her from Aki. After squeezing them, Denji felt unsatisfied and troubled for a while. Makima noticed he was feeling down and confronted him to tell her why.

## Chapter Chronology

**Over and Over Again** (繰 (く) り返 (かえ) し繰 (く) り返 (かえ) し, *Kurikaeshi Kurikaeshi*?) is the 32nd chapter of the Chainsaw Man manga series.

## Summary

The Future Devil repeats phrases such as "The Future Rules!", and requests Aki repeat them as well. Aki states his intention of making a contract, annoying the Devil. The Devil requests to read Aki's future by placing his head in its chest cavity. As he complies, the Devil begins giggling profusely, and agrees to the contract on the condition it can live in his right eye. Aki is shocked by the easiness of the request, however the Devil mockingly informs him that it wants to see his future 'with its own eyes', as he will die "In The Worst Way Possible". It asks if he wants to know how he will die, however Aki refuses, before agreeing to the contract, unphased.

Meanwhile, Denji and Power lay, beaten on a floor. Kishibe comments on their improvement, and informs them training will become weekly instead of daily. He warns them to keep a cool head and remain aware of their surroundings, before informing them the 'New 4th Division' will be hunting Sawatari and Katana Man. Kishibe informs them if the mission fails, the 4th Division will shut down, and he'll be forced to kill them. Denji happily remarks that if they were to fight, he'd spare Kishibe as thanks for making him stronger and moving him closer to the goal of dating Makima.

Later, Kishibe sits down to drink with Makima. He remarks his unhappiness with continuing Denji and Power's training, due to his growing attachment towards them. He then questions Makima on her pre-existing knowledge of the attacks, remarking that "As Long As [She's] On Humanity's Side, [He'll] Look The Other Way". Makima states her goal as being to save as many people as possible and increase the prestige of the 4th Division. Kishibe considers this, before calling her a liar. Makima smiles in response.

In an office building, the Gun-Agents reconvene, planning to put their leaders into hiding. Sawatari points out the pointlessness of hiding, given Makima's power. Katana Man agrees, intending to kill Denji with his own hands. Sawatari reveals the group's ultimate weapon: A cluster of Zombies left over by the Zombie Devil.

* **Stone Devil Contract:** Kusakabe has a contract with the Stone Devil for an unknown price. By standing inside a special circle and blowing through a hole formed by his hand, Kusakabe can petrify his opponents, turning them into stone. Kusakabe calls this skill dangerous, since the Stone Devil could petrify both enemies and nearby allies without distinction. Kusakabe can draw this circle by himself and he is able to use this ability with a simpler circle. However, how this affects the petrification is unknown because the Darkness Devil interrupted and destroyed the Stone Devil along with Kusakabe himself before he could use it.

## Chapter Chronology

## Summary

Denji starts fighting the Leech Devil, but is easily defeated by it which prompts the Leech Devil to question whether the Bat Devil was really beaten by such a weak person. The Leech Devil says that the Bat Devil and she had the dream of eating all the humans together, admitting that it is an impossible but sublime and beautiful dream.

The thought of Denji killing the Bat Devil further angers the Leech Devil which states again that she will kill Denji. He responds that he won't die before he cops a feel. To which the Leech Devil responds that this is a stupid dream. This leads to Denji getting angry and attacking. He challenges the Leech Devil to a dream battle, meaning the person who wins their fight has the better dream. The Leech Devil accepts this challenge and the both of them attack. Denji manages to stab the Leech Devil with his chainsaw but gets impaled through the stomach.

At this point, Denji is about to be eaten but Aki Hayakawa arrives in time and summons his Fox Devil which bites the Leech Devil and eats it.

## Chapter Chronology

**The Prophecies** (大 (だい) 予 (よ) 言 (げん) , *Dai Yogen*?) is the 122nd Chapter of the *Chainsaw Man* manga.

## Summary

The chapter opens up with Fami making an extraordinarily large order in the same restaurant to which Yoshida has brought Denji before. Yoshida asks Fami to slow down as that is quite too expensive, especially since the order is on him. Yoshida comments on Fami's low-effort choice for an alias, to which Fami responds by claiming she doesn't care about her identity being exposed.

Yoshida proceeds to tell Fami about the "Prophecy of Nostradamus," which foresees the extinction of humanity in July 1999. Despite the public not giving it much attention, Public Safety took it seriously and made 30 convicts make a contract with the Future Devil under the terms of release from custody. The convicts received the knowledge of the dates of their deaths for an unknown price, it was confirmed that 23 out of the 30 would die in July 1999.

Yoshida tells Fami that Public Safety believes she is involved with the prophecy and threatens to treat her as a wild devil if she doesn't cooperate. In response Fami reveals that the remaining 7 convicts will all die this week, Furthermore, she reveals that a Primal Fear appeared 40 seconds ago at East District’s Tamano Apartments, and that "she" will be the first devil to cast the world into the abyss of terror.

We cut to an apartment in which a couple celebrates one of them getting a promotion. One of them asks if they can buy a car if they get a raise, but both decide owning a car is way too expensive. After a moment of silence, they abruptly drop the topic and mutually decide that they should die now. They then proceed to walk to the balcony and jump to their deaths.

We cut back to Yoru watching in confusion as countless people drop to their deaths before her. She summons a "Ruler Sword" and takes a stance as a mangled figure emerges from the pile of corpses. In response, Yoru drops her bag and runs away claiming she cannot possibly win this fight.

## Comment

### TOOBOE

The personality of JOHN was born four months after Chainsaw Man started in Shonen Jump. There are many influences of Mr. Tatsuki Fujimoto in my work. Denji-kun's looser feeling pierced my heart, and the explosion scene in "Sayonara Eri" made my eyes sparkle with joy. I never thought that I would be involved in the ending song of this work almost 3 years later. I am very honored. I would like to enjoy the anime of "Chainsaw Man" with all the people like me who have read the book so much that their spirits have grown insatiable.

As the group realizes they have been trapped inside the endless hallway of the aquarium, Seigi points out that it is the work of a Devil, who they must kill to free themselves. Because the Devil cannot be found, the group search for other ways out, to no avail, then convenes inside a lounge room, where Seigi and Yoshida bring fish for them to cook and eat.

Asa reveals her cell phone, which excites Seigi and the others as they now have a chance to get a signal to call for help. However, Asa falls over and breaks the phone, shocking and disappointing her classmates. With no options appearing before them, the students begin to give up, and Seigi tries to bide time by practicing his punches. Suddenly, the group is freed from the aquarium, which Asa has transformed into a spear to fight the reincarnated Eternity Devil.
