Product Information

It follows the story of Denji, a young man who makes a living as a Devil Hunter by using his pet Devil named Pochita, who can transform into a chainsaw. Alongside the early news of the manga’s resumption in Summer, the first PV trailer for the Chainsaw Man anime series was released at the MAPPA 10th Anniversary event in June 2021. The second issue of Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump magazine would then revealed that the series would receive a “second part” that would be a direct continuation of chapter 97. Chainsaw Man ( チェンソーマン , Chensōman ?) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Fujimoto Tatsuki. The series is divided into two parts, the Public Safety Saga (officially referred to as an arc) and the Academy Saga. The Public Safety Saga, which contains 97 chapters, follows Denji as the main protagonist. The ongoing Academy Saga introduces a new main protagonist, Asa Mitaka.

Denji was a small-time devil hunter just trying to survive in a harsh world. After being killed on a job, he is revived by his pet devil Pochita and becomes something new and dangerous—Chainsaw Man! However, there has been a set of ‘leaks’ that are already concerning the community; according to user ‘ rcco_r0nd0‘, half of the production will be CG animation and around half will be traditional 2D art.

However, not a single Chainsaw Man instalment featured on the top-15 best-selling volumes of 2021; being dominated instead by Jujutsu Kaisen, One Piece and Demon Slayer.

This article will be updated as more information on Chainsaw Man part 2 is shared online in the build-up to the manga series’ highly anticipated return next month. The news was first shared by the manga series editor Shihei Lin on social media, confirming that serialisation will resume in Jump Plus from July 13th.
