Chainsaw Man chapter 194 recap

Expand Tweet

Chainsaw Man chapter 194 began with Denji waking up on presumably the day after chapter 193’s events. It at first seemed like he intended to take advantage of Asa/Yoru’s body while Yoru was still asleep, but he instead tucked her in. He then went to make potstickers for breakfast while telling Pochita that the most dangerous lady yet liked him, and that he had a feeling it wasn’t going to end well for him. The TV claimed 900 dead and 3,800 missing in Tokyo.

Yoru woke up and joined him after he finished cooking as focus shifted to Yoshida, Fumiko, and Fami on a park bench together. Yoshida asked Fami for help with preparations for the Death Devil’s arrival in a month, citing Public Safety being understaffed and desperate at the moment. However, she refused, saying that she was chosen to be on the planning committee for her school’s festival to pray for Tokyo’s revival on the same day they needed her help.

Fumiko reacted angrily, while Yoshida offered to have someone do that work in her stead. Fami rejected this offer, saying that she has friends and it seems like something fun to do. She added that she found hanging out with Denji, Asa, and Yoru to be fun, but not hanging out with them as her friends arrived to collect her. The issue ended with a shift in focus back to Denji and Yoru, where Asa regained control over her body and pointed a bang at Denji in the final panels.

What to expect from Chainsaw Man chapter 195 (speculative)

Chainsaw Man chapter 195 will likely begin with Asa Mitaka saying her peace about what War Devil Yoru has been doing with Denji and her body recently. Asa will likely communicate how used she’s been feeling, equating her current existence to not having or being in control of her own body.

Chapter 195 should see Denji try to relate here while apologizing, but also tell Asa that she’s free to do what she wants and he’ll forgive her and understand either way. The issue will likely end with Yoru yelling at Asa to not do it via their internal dialogue as the word bang is said in the final panel.
