the Episode Review

The story of Chainsaw Man had a nice mix of action and thrills as well as a bit of humor. Watching Denji take on an evil demon without the help of his skills was amazing and impressive. The show also showcases some of Hayakawa’s talents. It’s fascinating to see how Hayakawa’s friendship with his fellow Fox Devil mirrors Denji’s companionship with Pochita. It raises questions about the motivations behind their encounter.

In the meantime, Hayakawa is gradually growing in love with Denji’s company. Although he is still adamant about Denji as a child who has poor goals, Hayakawa admires Denji’s somewhat heroic character. Fans can look forward to seeing how their relationship grows as the story continues. In addition to Hayakawa, Power developed thanks barely due to Denji’s heroic act for her to protect her, and Meowy.

In addition, there were some issues that this episode did not address. While the battle between Denji as well as the Leech Devil was stunning but there were moments when Denji’s movements seemed sluggish, and the scene was jarring. While the show tries to describe the way Hayakawa is tracking Power and Denji however, the scene seems a bit improbable. Mappa would have been wise to cut a few slice-of-life scenes to provide us with more details on Hayakawa’s connection to Denji and Power. Fox Devil.

In the end, this was a fun entry that featured stunning fight scenes and jaw-dropping images. The cliffhanger may make viewers confused due to obvious reasons, it’s fun to see what the Hayakawa family fares against Power there. I hope the next episode will keep delivering stunning fight scenes and more lore.
