In case you’re unfamiliar, Chainsaw Man is an anime that’s based on the hit manga of the same name by Tatsuki Fujimoto. It is made by MAPPA, the same studio that brought you the Jujutsu Kaisen anime and Attack on Titan The Final Season.
Its premise is described as:
Denji is a teenage boy living with a Chainsaw Devil named Pochita. Due to the debt his father left behind, he has been living a rock-bottom life while repaying his debt by harvesting devil corpses with Pochita.
One day, Denji is betrayed and killed. As his consciousness fades, he makes a contract with Pochita and gets revived as “Chainsaw Man” — a man with a devil’s heart.
