As someone pointed earlier, if this is Eternity Devil, he respawned in Hell after Denji killed him, then died there and respawned on Earth, which means he should have no memory of Denji and Chainsaw Man.

Also, I just realized that this setup means that Asa can learn that Denji is Chainsaw Man, without Yoru knowing about it.

Oh yes that's true I forgot about memory ironically. I wonder if infinity has a way around that due to being infinite. Doubtful of course, just spitballing. It would be funny if it is infinity and Famine has just lured him in with the exact same promise of Chainsaw's heart but warned him not to manifest.

To the latter point that's very interesting!

I wonder if the Eternity devil got summoned here specifically because Denji was fearing 30 more straight minutes of staring at fish and aquatic facts he couldn't give less of a poo poo about?

There’s no way Denji kicks the bucket here, right?

Asa obtaining a powerful weapon susceptible to Denji’s feelings for her is a fun potential premise.

Another thought is, what would motivate Famine to do this? War immediately reacted in what could be described as fear. Famine appears to be stronger than War.

With Makima getting rid of the Nazi's and planning to get rid of hunger as a concept I'm just going to guess that the Four horsemen are just outright enemies.

Maybe a little bit of horrible violent gore when Yor (briefly) encounters a devil.

I am assuming that the tank with the animals is endless too. I see Denji breaking the tank to get out of the trap (or to see penguins or if he got hungry and decided to try and eat the starfish) and leaving Asa behind to explain to the very angry aquarium guards why she *totally* didn't break the tank herself.

Denji is then looking bored at the penguins when Asa is carried out screaming in frustration.

She's in a penguin mascot suit. She's a janitor, but management makes her wear it. None of the other janitors have to wear penguin mascot suits, just her.

Her immortality contract with the comedic suffering devil came at a very steep price.

This is a thing I can very easily check out myself, but because I really want to continue with the episode-- is this the first time Angel/Beam/?/Kishibe have show up in the OP's cinema sequence?

Yeah the only one who's missing in the cinema that's suspect is the Violence fiend so if there's any change there it's gonna be replacing Arai with him but I doubt the anime is gonna do that.

A friend texted me that he had started reading the manga immediately after watching episode 9 because he couldn't wait to see what's next after all that crazy poo poo.

Regarding the this week's chapter, I'd love if it was the eternity devil again and Denji just speedran that fight like he was in New Game+ because Famine doesn't know he already fought the eternity devil before.

Seems like Fami has recruited the Eternity Devil given that Denji recognizes the ability. That being said, it got powered up last time by the gun devil; I wonder how its powers work unbuffed or if Fami has powered it up in some way. Fami does have this ability given that she can resurrect Yuko and make her powers go berserk.

considering gun devil flesh and darkness devil flesh works as a way to boost power, famine being able boost and steal power could make sense. Literally the power of Feast or famine

No he says that devil's don't remember being reborn or their time in Hell and tells Aki it's like remembering the womb. However the devils he spoke to who worked for the special division all remembered the sound of the chainsaw. Not all devils. I had always assumed that Makima had specifically collected devils/fiends whom chainsaw had killed.

You know, this kinda brings up the question of why Darkness decided to attack the gang when they got send to Hell. I know the common theory is to bait Makima, but why would Darkness even want to kill her in the first place?

Maybe the gang just got dropped into Darkness' territory by coincidence, and it would have obliterated anyone who entered in, and they easily could have been dropped into Death or Plague's territory instead.
