Chapter 22

## Chapter Chronology

**Cola-Flavor Chupa Chups** (チュッパチャップスコーラ味 (あじ) , *Chuppa Chappusu Kōra Aji*?) is the 22nd chapter of the Chainsaw Man manga series.

## Summary

Denji agrees to have sex with Himeno, and she starts undressing him. As she begins to take off his pants, however, she finds a Chupa-Chups Lollipop in his pocket.

A flashback to the restaurant shows Denji in a fugue after the vomit kiss. Makima takes him outside, and buys him various medicines to help with his sickly feeling. Upset, Denji comments on how poor his first-kiss was, expressing a worry that all future kisses will remind him of vomit. Makima, sucking on a Cola Lollipop, offers it to him, telling him it will be his first 'indirect kiss' and to remember its flavour instead.

Back in the present, Himeno has passed out, with Denji having refused to sleep with her. Denji apologises to Pochita for not sleeping with Himeno, stating he wants to lose his virginity to Makima. Himeno wakes him in the morning and cheerily offers him breakfast.

Eating on a balcony, Himeno tells him she doesn't remember the previous night, and asks if she forced herself on him. Denji informs her he refused as he's saving himself for Makima, and she expresses her relief. She asks whether Denji is serious about liking Makima, despite her poor personality. Denji reaffirms this, and Himeno happily offers to help get the two together. The two agree upon a 'Top Secret Alliance', whereby she aids him in return for him helping her get with Aki. Happy, Himeno tells Denji that they are now friends, rather than co-workers, and invites him, Aki and Power to visit anytime.

Meanwhile, Makima and another Devil Hunter sit on a train to Kyoto. As she thinks of the night before, a group of passengers around them suddenly pull out guns and shoot them both dead. One of the assassins speaks, repeating "This is C Team, Commence Operation".

Tanaka

## Mr. Tanaka

Mr. **Tanaka** (田 (た) 中 (なか) , *Tanaka*?) was a teacher of Asa Mitaka's class. He was later killed by Yoru, the War Devil, who turned him into a human weapon during her battle with the class president.

## Appearance

Mr. Tanaka was a tall man with black hair and parted bangs. He mostly wore white shirt with black tie, and a coat.

## Personality

Mr. Tanaka was a kind man who values life and the well being of his students. He took special care to make sure Asa Mitaka felt included in the class, including asking the class president to befriend her and apologizing to the class on her behalf for the death of Bucky.

However, he may have been more unscrupulous then he seemed, as it was later revealed that he was sleeping with the class president despite their age difference and student-teacher relationship.
Tolka

**Tolka** (トーリカ, *Tōrika*?) is a private devil hunter from the Soviet Union.

## Appearance

Tolka is a tall, plain-looking man with light hair and pale eyes. When he goes hunting he dons a hoodie and a quiver on his back.

## Personality

Tolka has been conditioned to believe that taking a life is not a serious matter thanks to his hunting trips with his master. After being questioned on whether or not he can kill a sixteen-year old boy like an animal, Tolka affirms that he can do so.

Tolka is devoted to his master; being willing to kill another person so that she could retire peacefully, as well as wiping her mouth when she eats.

## Plot

### International Assassins arc

Tolka and his master are hunting the woods when they come across a fox which he shoots with an arrow. He questions the point of the hunt they're on while his master repeatedly asks him whether he thinks he has taken a life or not. They return to their cottage and cook the fox. His master reveals that their next job is not a job to hunt a devil but to hunt and kill a sixteen-year old boy, much like the fox they have just hunted and killed. Tolka swears to his master that he can kill. He makes a promise to her that since she has just half a year left to live that he wants her to live her remaining days in a peaceful retirement.

Later in Japan Tolka's master discretely stabs Denji three times with a nail and drops it in front of Tolka who is sitting at a nearby table. She explains the details of her contract with the Curse Devil and entrusts the fourth and final stab to Tolka.

Tolka and his master go hunting after Denji. Tolka looks at the nail in his hand as he prepares to enter the battle.

Tolka disguises himself among the dead dolls created by the Doll Devil and plants the nail on the floor which Denji steps on. Denji rises into the air and is violently killed by the Curse Devil as Beam looks on in shock. Tolka then stands up and kicks Beam in the face.

His Master comes to congratulate Tolka and states that he is now part of the family. He is then turned into a doll after being touched by his Master. He is sent to hell along with the Devil Hunters via Santa Claus's contract with the Hell Devil. Now under control of the Doll Devil, he states to the Darkness Devil that he has brought the Chainsaw's heart in exchange for the power to kill Makima. He is subsequently decapitated by the Darkness Devil.

**Tokyo Special Division 4** (公 (こう) 安 (あん) 対 (たい) 魔 (ま) 特 (とく) 異 (い) ４課 (か) , *Kōan-taima Tokui Yonka*?) was a special subdivision within Public Safety created by Makima as an experimental unit, which later came under the command of Captain Kishibe.

The composition of this division is different from other divisions, consisting of Fiends, Devil Hybrids, and humans alike. Many of them are outliers and are considered powerful, yet disposable by Public Safety due to their nature.

After Makima's death, the division has become defunct owing to its members being deceased or having resigned.

After the encounter with Katana Man and Sawatari, divisions that had suffered from the conflict were put in Tokyo Special Division 4 as a means to bolster the group.

South-Western Black Rhinoceros

## Sound

The **south-western black rhinoceros** (*Diceros bicornis occidentalis*) is a subspecies of the black rhinoceros, living in southwestern Africa (northern Namibia and southern Angola, introduced to South Africa). It is currently listed as vulnerable by the IUCN. The biggest threat towards the subspecies *Diceros bicornis occidentalis* is illegal poaching.

## Taxonomy

This subspecies is often mistaken for either the extinct southern black rhinoceros (*D. b. bicornis*) or the southeastern subspecies (*D. b. minor*). However, the populations in the arid areas of northern Namibia and southwestern Angola represent a separate subspecies.

The holotype specimen, a male, was about 16 months old when caught alive by a Mr. Müller in 1914 near the Kunene River (Kaokoveld, border region between Namibia and Angola), and shipped to the Tierpark Hagenbeck, the Hamburg Zoo, in Germany. After its death on 15 October 1916, its hide and skeleton was preserved at the Zoologisches Museum Hamburg (specimen no. 40056) and described as belonging to a new species, *Opsiceros occidentalis*, by L. Zukowskyin 1922. *Opsiceros* is an invalid synonym of the genus *Diceros*.

## Description

The south-western black rhino, like all black rhino subspecies, has a distinct prehensile lip and is a browser. Its appearance is similar to other subspecies, the most important difference to them is a relatively broad head behind the eyes and minor features in the dentition. Other characters often mentioned, like body size or the straightness and size of the horns, are subject to individual variation. They also are most adapted to arid habitat and can be found in arid savanna and desert climates.

## Population and threats

Historically, this subspecies once roamed in Angola, and Namibia, but their current range has decreased. The stronghold of the species is primarily in Namibia. One to four specimens have been reported from Angola and others were introduced to South Africa. The total population is increasing and numbered to 1,920 animals in 2010, with 55.8% adults. Poaching due to increasing horn prices is considered the main threat to the population.

### IUCN status

The IUCN considers the living northern Namibian black rhino populations to belong to the subspecies *D. bicornis bicornis*, and does not recognize a separate *D. b. occidentalis*. This synonymy, based upon du Toit (1987) was, however, considered erroneous by Groves and Grubb (2011), and *D. b. occidentalis* was re-established as a valid subspecies. As all southernmost populations of black rhinoceros were exterminated by the mid-19th century, *D. b. bicornis* is completely extinct today.
Nobana Higashiyama

## Professional Information

### Affiliation

* Fourth East High School
	+ Devil Hunter Club
* Chainsaw Man Church

### Relatives

Unnamed Parents
 Unnamed Eight Sisters
 Unnamed Older Brother
 Kobeni Higashiyama (older sister)

## First Appearance

### Manga Debut

Chapter 112 *(Debut)*

> "*I never wanted to join the Devil Hunter Club! My mom made me! She said it'd get me scholarships!*"
>
>
>

**Nobana Higashiyama** (東 (ひがし) 山 (やま)  ノバナ, *Higashiyama Nobana*?) is a highschooler attending Fourth East High School and a member of the Devil Hunter Club as well as a tour guide for the Chainsaw Man Church. He is the younger brother of Kobeni Higashiyama.

## Appearance

Nobana bears a notable resemblance to Kobeni, especially his face and eyes. Similarly to Kobeni he also has moles on his face, precisely two just under his right eye. He has short, brown hair that is kept in line by six hair clips on his right side and falls to his face on the left. Similarly to his sister, he is also quite short. Nobana wears the standard boys' uniform of Fourth East High School and has the typical cap from the Devil Hunter Club, though he sometimes wear it. He is always seen with sweat on his face, often also blushing.

## Personality

Much like his older sister, Nobana is perpetually anxious but, unlike her, even more so and he hasn't had any moments of competency or bravery so far. He gets easily embarrassed and stutters uncontrollably when merely trying to say the word "sex". Similarly to Kobeni, his parents put a lot of pressure on him and force him to do activities he doesn't enjoy, like joining the Devil Hunter Club. Nobana's mind is fragile, as he goes insane after a few days of being trapped in the aquarium, licking the glass senselessly.

Later, Nobana joins the Chainsaw Man Church and becomes fully devoted to their cause, easily believing the lies which the Church tells its followers showing he's very susceptible to manipulation and conspiracy theories. For example, he believes that the concept of marrying as an adult is a system from the USA designed to control the Japanese like slaves and encourages students to have children and marry each other.

## Etymology

* Nobana's surname **Higashiyama** means "east" (東 (ひがし) , ***higashi***?) and "mountain, hill" (山 (やま) , ***yama***?).

## Trivia

* Nobana is not the same brother Arai mentioned in Chapter 15, since that brother is older than Kobeni, who is already an adult. Meanwhile, Nobana still attends highschool.

## Plot

### Vaundy

Needless to say, this is my favorite work, and I am very happy that I was able to create music for a work that I love so much and face so many problems.

I read the original story over and over again, chewed and swallowed the flavor of "Chainsaw Man" that I got in the process, and I think I was able to come up with music that I think is appropriate for this work in my own way. I would be happy if I could help bring to life the wonderful work "Chainsaw Man" and its characters.

I believe that this song will be interesting to listen to again after watching all the episodes of the anime. I hope you will feel the song freely along with the work!

### PEOPLE 1

I remember reading the first chapter in Jump and being so excited. At that time, I wasn't doing PEOPLE 1 itself, so I never thought I would be in charge of the ED song. I hope that the song has the coolest and most forceful feel to it that will not lose to the strong worldview of Chainsaw Man, so I hope you all enjoy it.

Nayuta/History

#### Control Devil arc

After the defeat of the previous incarnation of the Control Devil, Nayuta incarnated in China as the new one. Kishibe found her and brought her to Japan.

During the meeting between Kishibe and Denji, Nayuta approached them by hugging one of Makima's dogs. Kishibe introduced her to Denji while she was biting one of Denji's fingers. Denji remembers this bite from the time Makima bit him, immediately making the connection between the two. Kishibe goes on to say that Makima is effectively gone, and this new Control Devil must not be allowed to go down a similar path, thus leaving Nayuta in Denji's care rather than Public Safety's.

### Academy Saga

#### Justice Devil arc

Nayuta is seen sleeping with Denji and their dogs while Yuko was beheaded by a figure resembling Chainsaw Man.

#### Dating Denji arc

When Denji and Asa Mitaka are trapped in the Tanashi Aquarium by Fami, Denji reveals that, despite her young age, Nayuta is smart enough to go to college, and he is paying her tuition.

A day after Denji and Asa escape from the aquarium, Nayuta goes out for a walk with the dogs. When she returns home, she finds Denji and Yoru kissing. She calls Yoru a thief and points at her, linking a chain through Yoru's skull. With the chain, Nayuta has Yoru barking like a dog, to her amusement. Denji tells Nayuta to turn her back immediately, which she agrees to do as soon as she is fed. While she eats, she asks Denji if he is sure he wants to turn "Asa" back, adding that every woman he meets tries to kill him.

Denji replies that it is just a feeling, and she complies, but on two conditions: allow her to eat ice cream every day and not make friends with Asa anymore. When asked why, Nayuta explains that "Asa" has a bad scent and proceeds to say she will alter her memories to make her believe that Denji stood her up. Denji is conflicted but decides to put Nayuta first, and she replies with a peace sign.

#### Falling Devil arc

At night, Nayuta smells a "nasty devil scent" and insists that Denji go out and hunt it. However, Denji is depressed and does not want to be Chainsaw Man anymore, saying that Nayuta will only block him from more future ladies. Nayuta tells Denji that if he turns into Chainsaw Man, he could get more love from people than a girlfriend ever would. After some thought, Denji is quickly regains motivation.

During the fight Denji and Asa are eaten by another devil which Nayuta manipulates into throwing them up. This enrages the Falling Devil which annihilates the devil in response. She then has a chat with Fami, who proceeds tells Nayuta about the prophecy and offers Nayuta to work together to stop it. Although they both have the shared interest of loving pizza Nayuta declines due to having to study.

Once the Loneliness Devil possessed a host, he went floor to floor every day in the same apartment complex, ringing the doorbell of the first room onward until someone answered the door. Once someone answered, he would immediately shoot them with his special crossbow, which would result in them fainting for 15 minutes and all their loved ones dying. 6 days after it appeared and claimed 3 victims families, it went to room 401 where Aki and Himeno were staying to capture him.

## Plot

### History

There isn’t much information about the Weapon Devils before they were fused with their respective human, with very little information provided by Makima. The Weapon Devils once fought alongside the Four Horsemen against Pochita, but at the height of the battle, Pochita vanished and is reduced to a completely changed, near-death state and ended up on Earth.

The Weapon Devils also somehow ended up on Earth, whether it's because they were killed in the battle and reincarnated or not is unknown. They later become fused with different humans all throughout the world, thus creating 7 new hybrids.

## Members

Katana DevilBomb DevilBow DevilLongsword DevilFlamethrower DevilSpear DevilWhip Devil

## Trivia

* Given how the Bow Devil was fused with a hybrid who was known as “the first devil hunter”, who was shown to be an ageless immortal that has been around for more than a few decades, it is questionable how they were able to be part of the battle with the other Weapon Devils and Four Horsemen against Pochita.
