Chainsaw Man episode 9 is set to feature the battle between the Hybrids
Chainsaw Man episode 9, titled From Kyoto, will resume right from where the previous episode ended, as before Himeno passed away, she tugged on Denji's Chainsaw pull chord. This turned him into Chainsaw Man, setting up a fight between him and Katana Man.
The same is evident from the preview, as it hints towards the battle between the Hybrids. During the battle, Denji is set to take on Katana Man's comrades hostage, however, the Hybrid will take no heed to it as he goes on to chop them both in half.
The preview also shows glimpses of Kobeni in action, as it is a relief for fans that she has survived the gunmen's attacks. She looked nimble on her feet as she could be seen running over the Snake Devil's body while fighting Akane Sawatari.
Perhaps trying to save Denji could be her way of apologizing for her previous attempts to kill him during the Eternity Devil arc. Hopefully, we may see Kobeni showing her powers, thus finally revealing the devil she is contracted to.
The preview even gave fans a glimpse of Makima alive as well. While fans were devastated after seeing her getting shot on the train, it seems like she has survived, after which she is set to start her counterattack against Katana Man and Akane Sawatari.
The chances are high that fans may catch a glimpse of Makima's powers. Given that she is the head of Division 4, she must have some incredible powers, which could shock the fans.
