I was excited to head to the studio to record the PV first, and when I heard Toya-san’s voice acting on the microphone next to me during the recording, I exclaimed, “It’s Denji! The real Denji is here!”, and before I knew it, the recording was over.

I am filled with a sense of urgency now, seeing the staff’s respect for the original work and their strong commitment to creating the work.
First of all, I hope everyone enjoyed the PV!

Ever since I read the original work, I thought it would be amazing if this series of emotionally stirring, dizzying developments were made into a movie, so I’m very happy that it will be available to watch in theaters as a feature film!
Reze is coming…! Reze is coming!
I will do my best to act out the scenes where I get excited about Reze, as well as the high IQ battle scenes that only Chainsaw Man can pull off! Look forward to it!!!

About Chainsaw man
Chainsaw Man is a Japanese manga written and illustrated by Tatsuki Fujimoto. The first part was serialized in Shueisha’s Shonen manga magazine Weekly Shōnen Jump from December 2018 to December 2020. The second part began serialization in Shueisha’s Shōnen Jump+ online magazine in July 2022. As of December 2023, its chapters have been collected in 16 volumes.
ANN Describes the story as follows:
“Denji is a destitute young man who lives in a world filled with bloodthirsty monsters called Devils. One day, he befriends Pochita, who is a Devil dog-thing that is also a literal chainsaw. If that wasn’t already a weird, things take a real turn when Denji is murdered by gangsters, and Pochita fuses with his soul to save his life. This turns the perpetually hungry and horny Denji into the titular Chainsaw Man, who ends up hunting other Devils for the enigmatic Makima, a woman who works for a governmental bureau of Devil Hunters, and strings Denji along with vague promises of sex and fortune, even as she treats him as little more than a dog himself.“
