Chainsaw Man chapter 207 recap

Chainsaw Man chapter 207, titled Budda Budda Budda Budda, saw Asa Mitaka help Denji think good thoughts to help him out of Falling Devil's control. However, after Denji realized what he had done, he did not think somebody like him deserved to be happy. That's when Asa expressed her desire to make Denji happy. While neither knew how they would do it, Asa suggested that they brainstorm it.

Soon after, Asa switched her focus to the Falling Devil. She knew defeating the devil was a priority and switched places with Yoru to allow the War Devil to unleash her strongest attack. Yoru used Tank Devil's powers to attack the Falling Devil with a barrage of weapons. While the attacks landed on the Falling, the devil regenerated her body.

What to expect from Chainsaw Man chapter 208?

Chainsaw Man chapter 208 will likely first reveal the Falling Devil's status. While the devil was buried under a large number of weapons, there was a good chance that she survived using her regenerative ability.

Soon after, the manga might focus on War Devil Yoru, who might try to get Denji to think good thoughts and return to the ground. However, considering that there was a good chance for Falling Devil to be still at large, the manga might mostly focus on the battle between the primal fear and War Devil.
