yoshida is already incredibly suspicious so it's not really that surprising that he knows real secrets too

would be very fitting for the octopus devil contractor to be doing sort of a lurking manipulator thing, SPECTRE style. maybe he's like kaji and he shows up on everyone's payroll at least once.

here's a question. why was the devil hunter club even at the aquarium in the first place? Yoshida said he wanted to look at fish. most likely a lie but plausible at least

we're they just randomly patrolling and got lucky? did someone report an odd occurrence?

narratively ya, but do they have any idea who he is or given any indication that they do? Yoshida makes perfect sense

I mean it makes sense they're here to die gloriously but that's besides the point

Are you suggesting that Yoshida is stalking Denji? How crazy! It's just a coincidence. Yoshida said so.

This is true because Fami is part of the devil hunter's club.

last chapter it was explained by the president - there's a lot of devil activity at the aquarium in general so they were on patrol.

yoshida isn't a member of the club though, but fami is. yoshida is almost certainly there because he was keeping an eye on denji (maybe investigating fami too), and fami almost certainly got the club to go on patrol there because denji & asa were going on a date there.

Devils get their powers from fear and lots of people think the ocean and the things in it are scary.

We've already seen that the Octopus Devil is pretty OP, and the Shark Devil was also an adorable badass. The Jellyfish, Angler Fish, and Drowning Devils are probably also extremely powerful.

A manga aquarium is a fear engine. By law, 60% of the people there must be on awkward dates. A further 30% are lost children. The remaining 10% is divided between staff and ringer couples seeded there to make the protagonists feel self conscious.

-Very brisk first chapter, yeah. The loving impact is so good. That kill on the zombie devil was dope AF.
-Whole rear end little sidequest that got cut when adapting the second chapter, huh!
-Yeah, i love this paneling and how shti leads into the following page. And the union song!

Not sure if this has been posted already, but this is the dumbest Chainsaw Man thing I have seen that made me laugh, A live action version of the opening. No spoilers, this is safe for anime watchers. I kinda want to see a live action episode done this way.

The Linke is a party I grudgingly accept exists, but I've learned enough about DDR-history I can't bring myself to trust a party that was once the SED, a party leading the corrupt state apparatus ...

I think it's debatable what would happen here. could a human still stumble upon a situation where they induced nuclear fission? honestly this opens the door to way more questions than answers. so the end result is :shrug:

Fission? Zero problems with that, even in a world were the concept of nuclear weapons was deleted, atomic decay would still be a thing. Now, building bombs being impossible, things would probably turn out like in that Hans Dominik SF-story were Humanity accidentally turns their moon into a nuclear sun. (This SF-story was written before the first nuclear bomb was tested, and nuclear power barely understood at all. In it, radioactive decay can still cause a chain-reaction, but only as a slow, determined process that can "infect" non-radioactive materials, too.)

I think my favorite thing is the amazing coincidence that this spot-on thread title was chosen well before the conclusion of part 1.

In the movie, "A Boy and His Dog", the main character and his psychic dog companion choose each other's survival and end up killing and eating the duplicitous love interest.

Denji eating Makima was perfect and I'm mad that I've seen two or possibly three people in the past who didn't like it. It makes perfect sense in-universe AND thematically, plus it's symbolic. Yeah it's hosed up, that's because it has to be, if the solution weren't hosed up then he wouldn't be Denji and this wouldn't be Chainsaw Man.

yeah the ending is perfect in just how hosed up it is. Denji stated from the very beginning that food was the most important thing to him. so it's deliciously ironic that eating is how it ends

I kinda wonder if Denji’s a vegetarian now? He probably still likes food a lot but I can see him just avoiding red meat at least pretty much forever. Or he just got over it completely, either or with him!
