What Is Chainsaw Man About?
Meet Denji — a poverty-stricken, young adult burdened with his deceased father’s financial debt. Without the means to pay for it, Denji has to work as a devil hunter to survive. In this world, “devils” are supernatural beings endangering humanity, and “devil hunters” are individuals tasked with eliminating them.
Desperate to escape his impoverished life and leave his father’s debt behind him, Denji strikes a deal with a devil and is granted unique powers — including the ability to turn his arms into chainsaws.
Most anime series are about more than just thrilling action scenes and supernatural happenings, and Chainsaw Man is no exception. This series offers deeper themes and thought-provoking complexities surrounding sacrifice, redemption, power, responsibility, friendship, identity, and the meaning of life.
