Hunt11 posted:I forget all the details of Yoru's ability to make weapons, but couldn't they both get what they wanted by dating Denji. As in that being enough to claim ownership over Denji to weaponize the chainsaw part of him which I assume would be quite the power up. This was the original plan. It failed miserably because Asa is socially inept and Yoru doesn't get human emotions at all despite needing esoteric concepts in play for her powers to be functional.

It's worth keeping in mind that Denji might just be immune to War's powers. We won't know for sure any time soon, but it's definitely a real possibility.

Can you really claim immunity to something that doesn't exist?

Ooof, Denji looks so uncomfortable in that panel. I noticed he's also keeping his mouth intentionally shut tight, I think he's having PTSD flashbacks to getting barf in his mouth and having his tongue bitten off.

Space Cadet Omoly posted:Ooof, Denji looks so uncomfortable in that panel. I noticed he's also keeping his mouth intentionally shut tight, I think he's having PTSD flashbacks to getting barf in his mouth and having his tongue bitten off. Yep. It's a nice detail. And by nice I mean sad. I've said it before, I think, but it's still remarkable how much of a tire fire Asa and Denji's """"romance"""" is. Denji's fallen for girls in, rough estimate, five seconds, and views "Wanna do it?" as something requiring staggering willpower to resist. We also see in the latest chapter that he's still just as quick to start liking women he should (and does) know better than to get involved with. Asa, meanwhile, has managed to fumble things to the point where Denji accepts placing her as a non-option with less serious negotiation than he has for the ice cream deal. I'm really curious what Fujimoto's working towards here. Asa and Denji are both really well done characters, and there's something building, but the romance feels even more doomed than Denji and Makima, which is saying something. That said, it did result in the first official Chainsaw Man video game, so that's something no matter how it ends.

Devils will be defeated but also Power is back to be the cool sister and make them both look like bigger dorks. She still has memories because she's just that cool. Also Aki is back too idk how. The Death horseman or something? Chainsawman switches to a comfy SoL series

Captain Invictus posted:I predict that chainsawman will devour the very concept of devils, wiping them from existence, and asa and denji will just be two weird dorks who wind up together after everyone forgets devils were a thing That's the thing. Asa and Denji are a terrible couple, not because of anything external, but because of their personalities. Like, Denji and Reze, set them up as free agents and they're screwing on the cafeteria table by lunchtime. Asa, meanwhile, will still be a condescending rear end in a top hat towards Denji no matter the outside circumstances, while Denji will be an awkward horndog setting Asa's discomfort to maximum. They basically only dated out of desperation, with literally anyone else getting further faster. (Denji needed a whole date to get Asa interested, which she still denied in her internal monologue. Yoshida, meanwhile, gets Asa on the line in basically a sentence. Without trying.) What's worse, Denji really needs Devils. Put aside that his best friend, his first love, his surrogate little sister, and the closest thing he has to a daughter are all devils, Denji was born with a terminal heart condition. A coughing-up-blood-in-the-middle-of-the-night-at-sixteen heart condition. Without Pochita, he'd be lucky to live to 20.

Asa and Denji is just a 'slap slap kiss' thing. Asa has fallen for Denji twice and he still views her as a potential ex girlfriend. It's probably healthy for Denji to have a romance with someone he doesn't put on a pedestal.

chiasaur11 posted:Ex potential girlfriend. As in she was once his potential girlfriend but now she's off the options list. Denji's expressed willingness to just give up on Asa is the highest he's had for any girl. I don't think that comedic line is meant to show that Denji has given up on Asa. More that he thinks she wants nothing to do with him because he stood her up on a date and Nayuta doesn't want it. After all Nayuta comes first. Edit- I feel like the big setup with Asa and Denji so far is that from Denji's perspective she's a repeat of all the terrible romantic experiences he's had before (wants to kill him/terrible kiss with/lack of consent) but it wasn't really Asa doing those things. A comedy/drama of errors. Giggy fucked around with this message at 20:52 on Aug 4, 2023 |

More that he thinks she wants nothing to do with him because he stood her up on a date and Nayuta doesn't want it. After all Nayuta comes first. She was, though. She was actively plotting to murder him, just like everyone else. Denji assuming she was different was, in fact, an unearned compliment. It was Asa, not Yoru, who picked Denji out as the guy to kill. Asa, not Yoru, who was insulting him and ordering him around. And Asa, not Yoru, who insulted him to the point of mental trauma while he was risking his life to save hers. Sure, she changed her mind on the killing thing, but Reze and Power did that first. Asa's only different in that she's aggressively lovely towards Denji even outside of plots to steal Chainsaw's heart.
