Chainsaw Man

Chainsaw Man

A manga about a young man who ends up fusing with his pet devil to become a devil hunter who grows chainsaws out of his body.

I really enjoyed Tatsuki Fujimoto’s Fire Punch so I was excited to see him start a new series in Weekly Shonen Jump. Initially the manga seemed like it might get canceled but I’m really happy that it’s started to gain popularity, at least for now.

It’s got a great silly sense of humor and I love it.

Available on Shonen Jump and Manga Plus.
