Tatsuki Fujimoto first started the Chainsaw Man manga in 2018, and part 1 ended in 2020 with a total of 97 chapters and 11 volumes. Part 2 began in July 2022. Viz Media licensed the manga in English.
The first anime season premiered last fall, and it ran for a total of 12 episodes. MAPPA CEO Manabu Otsuka said that the Chainsaw Man anime was a complete financial success. Kenshi Yonezu performed the opening theme song “KICK BACK,” while each episode had a different ending theme song performed by a different artist.
Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc got its digital release earlier this month following its theatrical debut.
Crunchyroll is streaming the anime, and they describe the story:
Denji is a teenage boy living with a Chainsaw Devil named Pochita. Due to the debt his father left behind, he has been living a rock-bottom life while repaying his debt by harvesting devil corpses with Pochita.
One day, Denji is betrayed and killed. As his consciousness fades, he makes a contract with Pochita and gets revived as “Chainsaw Man”–a man with a devil’s heart.
