(Story Summary)

‎At the beginning of the story, we see the character Denji, a poor teenager, who is forced to work as a Devil Hunter to pay off his dead father's debt. His only friend was Pochita, a small devil with a head like a chainsaw machine. Unfortunately, it has to be said that Denji was betrayed and killed at some point. Here Pochita sacrificed her life to merge with Denji, turning him into Chainsaw Man. Another scary thing here is that I saw a half-human with chainsaws coming out of his head and hands. After seeing this, I was very scared. After that, Denji joined the government Devil Hunter unit, where he faced various types of terrible devils, powerful comrades.

‎Denji had a dream woman named Makima, but she was not the one he loved at all. She was a devil who wanted to control people, even Chainsaw Man. Makima actually wanted to use the devil, because Chainsaw Man had defeated many powerful devils in the past. Makima believed that he would use this power to protect the good of mankind and maintain order, but in reality he was terribly selfish and cruel. But the devil never completely dies. After a while, the control devil was reincarnated in the body of a little girl named Nayuta. Denji, wanting to live like a normal person, sees Nayuta as an older brother, and starts life with a new responsibility.

(My Review)

‎I usually watch anime in the action or horror genre very selectively. But ‘Chainsaw Man’ really moved me not only for the blood and fighting, but also for its characters, philosophy, and depth of sadness.
Yes, there is bloodshed. Fighting with Chainsaws' machines, the screams of demons, and monstrous enemies. But underneath it all is Denji's loneliness, his childhood deprivation, and a few dreams like eating good food, hugging someone, surviving as a human. I was surprised to notice that Denji's little dreams raise many of the big questions in our own lives.

At first I liked him. Elegant, mysterious, sensitive, I was just as fascinated as Denji. But as I progressed, I realized that he was a terrible symbol of control in the name of love. The way Denji ate Makima in the end was symbolic revenge. Love destroyed him, and he consumed that love. This scene will remain in my heart for a long time. In the end, the character of Nayuta becomes a ray of hope. Denji's new responsibility, his new humanity, proves that he is not just Chainsaws' devil, but also a human being. It's like a message to all of us that the future can always be written by our own hands.

‎After watching this anime, I had a heavy burden on my mind for a while. Some character deaths, some broken dreams all in all I wouldn't call it just entertainment . It's messy difficult yet beautiful like life.
