Chainsaw Man chapter 157 recap
Chainsaw Man chapter 157 began with Asa Mitaka and Famine Devil Fami being revealed to be Denji’s rescuers.
The two briefly discussed their plan, as well as reaffirmed that beating this version of Chainsaw Man will save the Chainsaw Man Asa is in love with. Fami confirmed that once again while Asa swore to save Chainsaw Man as they approached the Tokyo Devil Detention Center’s entrance.
The security system was activated as they approached, revealing some unique looking turrets pointed at the pair. However, they didn’t fire due to Fami having Asa sign a contract, which gave her ownership of the weapons system in exchange for her savings.
As Asa perceived the turrets as hers, she was able to command them to fire on the building instead. That created a way inside for the pair. As they progressed and were recognized, Public Safety agents within the building began arming themselves and preparing to take the two out.
Fami emphasized that Asa would need to directly engage enemies from here on out, as Fami was their trump card. Shortly thereafter, Asa tripped and fell in front of some guards, getting their attention.
The issue ended with Fami seemingly preparing to summon the Falling Devil via her totem as the guards approached them.
What to expect from Chainsaw Man chapter 158 (speculative)?
With Asa and Fami now inside the Tokyo Devil Detention Center, Chainsaw Man chapter 158 should begin by showing the pair dealing with the guards in front of them.
That will likely be done via Fami summoning the Falling Devil or another Devil, given her holding a totem similar to the one the Falling Devil transformed into at the conclusion of her last appearance.
Should Fami be summoning a Devil, Chainsaw Man chapter 158 will likely see the pair leave this Devil behind as they head deeper into the facility. They should eventually run into Public Safety Devil Hunters, potentially forcing the pair to split up to achieve all their goals.
In this scenario, fans can expect Asa and War Devil Yoru to get their rematch against Hirofumi Yoshida.
