Another anime watcher putting down impressions.

-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!

My confusion before seeing his deal was more because I wasn't sure if I should be thinking he's the Santa Claus Fiend or not lmao.

God, the notepad scene with the Chinese assassin.

Literally what the actual Hell.

I'd seen the astronaut page before. It's so much cooler in context.

Okay morning moon is caught up, no more spoiler tags!

Because Nayuta fired her chain at Asa’s head and not her heart, I’m guessing it means she sees Yoru and is going to yank him/her out

what if Nayuta is able to control Yoru with the chain, but Asa is able to control the body regardless

I think he's either in hiding for massive treason, or he's running the whole dang operation now because the prime minister realized the control devil was controlling him and thus Mads and Chainsaw Man are heroes.

Prediction It's gotta be like a control chain beam and Yoru is under control but Asa isn't and then she like runs away so she and Yoru have incomplete information, like maybe knowing the Control Demon is Nayuta at most

honestly after seeing a lot of people thinking this is uncomplicatedly cute and fun my only question is whether "denji is doing his best to make things to go differently but it's probably not good that the control devil is dictating his life and who he hangs out with" is going to feel like a twist to people when it stops being (extremely unsubtle) subtext and just becomes actual text, in the same way that many readers ignored or did not register the obvious red flags around makima. can't wait for things with nayuta to go very, very wrong and denji to try the nayuta of the prophecy ending approach only for that to make things even worse

e: lots of references going on in these chapters: the dog leashes to match makima's part 1 chains for her servants, "thief" vs "bang", turning asa into a dog a la denji, wiping asa's memories like angel devil's. any other references to makima's greatest hits?

I think the fact that her two demands are basically Makima's core desires, sans getting chainsaw, Food & Controlling People's Social Groups

Also one of the animators in Adventure Time made a great post

I think the nature of the relationship is also leaning closer to Brother/Sister. Pochita mentions that Control Devil wanted someone to be an equal to, or something of that effect, so Denji was never going to have much, well, Control over Nayuta, but he's absolutely spoiling her even in his role as an older brother and with how she just casually changes Asa's memories after eating, Denji's lost complete control over the relationship. Gotta eat up and try again.

Well, I guess not "complete" yet. Nayuta still feels the need to have Denji agree to some extent to her bs, to bargain with him instead of just deciding to turn a girl into a dog and then eat ice cream every day, but that bargain being how we first see her sure isn't comforting to how this arc will go!

I feel like it's something along the lines of the impulse devil. The couple said they were gonna kill themselves, yeah, but it didn't look like they jumped off the balcony for that purpose. The guy looked outside, saw a car just like he wanted and then went towards it. Everybody has an innocent expression as they're falling off the building. Asa was already moody before she started talking suicide last chapter, so it feels similar to "we can't afford a car. should we just kill ourselves?"; "my heart is broken and i don't know who i'm living for. should i just kill myself?"
