Chainsaw Man chapter 204 recap

Expand Tweet

Chainsaw Man chapter 204 began with War Devil Yoru using her weaponization ability to make a weapon out of the destroyed building where she and Denji were in. This also meant that Falling Devil’s attack was foiled since it relied on using the destroyed building. Likewise, after landing, Yoru saw and chased after Falling while saying she was strong enough to kill her now. She told Denji that if he hadn’t defeated Fakesaw Man by the time she returned, they would handle it her way.

Denji tried once more to plead with Fakesaw Man for the humans’ freedom as he approached. However, Fakesaw ignored his pleas and prepared to attack Denji, who dodged and severed Fakesaw’s head. His body still pressed on after, prompting Denji to cut it in half vertically. This freed the humans stuck in Fakesaw’s arms, but they fled in terror after realizing Denji had killed the human stuck in Fakesaw’s heart by seeing the human body parts on him.

The Fire Devil then appeared, calling it a pleasure to meet Chainsaw Man while commenting on how strong he was. Denji asked if the Fire Devil wanted to fight, but she declined, instead saying she had a question. She then pointed to the severed head of Fakesaw Man, which had reverted back into human form but was only visible from the back. The issue ended with the Fire Devil confirming that this was her human host, asking Denji if he remembered the boy’s face.

What to expect from Chainsaw Man chapter 205 (speculative)

Chainsaw Man chapter 205 should begin with the reveal of who the Fire Devil’s human host was, having previously been confirmed as a member of Denji’s school. The most logical assumption for their identity would be Seigi Akoku, especially considering the plethora of additional evidence suggesting this to be the case.

After confirming the identity of the Fire Devil’s host, focus should shift to War Devil Yoru’s fight against the Falling Devil. Yoru should have the advantage at first, prompting Famine Devil Fami to get involved as the issue concludes.
