Chainsaw Man ch 182 is out and I would like to talk about it. This reaction will have spoilers. If you don’t want to be spoiled then stop now and go check out the chapter over at Viz Media or Shonen Jump to find out. AGAIN SPOILERS AHEAD.

So she is not hiding the emotions any more. The last chapter ended with Yoru kissing Denji and we begin with the same thing as Yoru seeing Denji as cute. This is an interesting change as Your has kissed Denji before but the last time she said it was experimentation. Here we see it as her true emotions and it seems she is honestly happy as she tries to cheer up Denji.

Denji reaction I would like to imagine reflects some fans. Keep in mind this is the war devil who is mostly trying to get into a fight with Denji and trying kill him. The reason has changed as Yoru think she can make him normal by beating him and making Chainsaw Man her weapon. But it was still want to fight. As such it is hard to say if this her snaping because she is in this world where you can’t hurt each other or if Fujimoto is putting the Yoru in the emotional state where you get more lovey-dovey during disasters.

The thing is here we see Yoru trying to be the ray of sun shin and make Denji happy. Something that comes to and end when Asa punches here. Basically her only reaction to make Yoru stop. It reminds me of Birdy the mighty as Birdy would use this to get the host. It was comedy some time but other times just a response for okay you are going to far.

This is the same but it is more of tagging out. I say that as Asa takes over and it is a good thing. If Asa mentioned other devils such as gun devils for example it would not be good and ruin things. But with Asa we can see her share her hardship with Denji. Moments we kept learning about as we got to learn the character Asa explained.

Now Denji has had it rough. No doubt as kids should not be wondering what organ they can sell in order to make rent and have there greatest dream in life being eating toast with jelly on it. But we have seen in part 2 that he has found happiness. That with all the things that has happened he has had a big improvement from where he was with Nauyta and the dogs since they gave him a calm family unit. What make him different from Asa is what Denji went through with Nayuta and the dogs being killed is something she went through constantly. Whatever happiness she found in this devil filled world would be take from her. As such she can give him an idea as to how you should keep going. How to get back up when you are kicked.

A cool moment between characters as we have all three Asa, Yoru and Denji (even though he doesn’t know they switched) give details on how Chainsaw Man inspired her that there is always something to live for. A nice moment before Denji vomited a devil that made it snow. A small odd moment but shows they might be finding a way to get out of aging devil world. at least on the right track as we see a boat coming for them. A boat teasing some old faces for denji.

This was a cool chapter again as we got this interaction with Denji and Asa that might been fans have been waiting for. All the pain they have been through and how they keep going is a something we have seen in them a bit as well as most major shonen character. Only here we get them sharing it. Something I liked as even with Yoru being out of her role. Cool.
