Frequently Asked Questions — Chainsaw Man
How many filler episodes does Chainsaw Man have?
Chainsaw Man has no filler episodes. All 12 episodes of Season 1 closely adapt the manga's Public Safety arc. The anime is produced by MAPPA.
Is Chainsaw Man Season 2 confirmed?
As of mid-2026, a Chainsaw Man Season 2 (or Part 2 anime) covering the Academy Saga has not been officially confirmed, though the manga is deep into the ongoing Falling Devil arc. A second season is widely anticipated.
What happens to Denji in Chainsaw Man?
Denji merges with his devil dog Pochita after being killed, becoming the Chainsaw Devil. He then works for Public Safety as a Devil Hunter under Makima, seeking a normal life while navigating an increasingly dangerous world of devils.
Is Makima a villain in Chainsaw Man?
Yes. Makima is revealed to be the Control Devil — one of the most powerful devils — who manipulated Denji throughout the entire Public Safety arc to use him as a weapon. Her defeat defines the arc's conclusion.
Does Aki die in Chainsaw Man?
Yes. Aki dies and his body is taken over by the Gun Devil in the Public Safety arc's climax. His death and Denji's subsequent confrontation with Aki-as-Gun-Devil is one of the most emotionally devastating moments in the series.
Who is Power in Chainsaw Man?
Power is the Blood Fiend — a devil/fiend hybrid who works as a Public Safety Devil Hunter. She is one of the most beloved characters in the series, known for her chaotic, selfish personality that hides genuine bonds.
Is the Chainsaw Man manga ongoing?
Yes. The Chainsaw Man manga by Tatsuki Fujimoto is ongoing in Shonen Jump. After the Public Safety arc concluded, the Academy Saga (Part 2) began in 2022 with Denji attending high school.
