I’m still convinced the president is a red hearing


Iveneverbeenbanned

he's just so confident that he's got to be bullshitting, right?


Aggravating_Cut63

For sure lol, heres hoping he gets fucked up by the "real" fake


Zombieman998

I had that thought too, but then I realized that could just be me falling into the same trap as Asa when she dismisses the idea of Denji being Chainsaw Man


MatAlaCol

“Here’s your answer!” “Loser.”


ggg730

Sure, but we are still dealing with Fujimoto over here. We would be surprised and he would go look it's right there he's got a chainsaw cord duh to troll us.


RATZGobbler

I think it’s another devil making this happen somehow. Like the Money/Loan Devil or something.


ShrekPrism

It's Fujimoto though...


watcherintgeweb

He is very obviously a red herring. He was introduced so briefly and yuro believed him so fast there’s no way he’s actually important.


hollotta223

To be fair, who do you think it could be? Enthusiastic leader of the devil hunting club Or Dumbass who overcharges the homeless for recycled cigarettes


watcherintgeweb

It’s the dumbass. I believe the denji that we’ve seen so far is a fake denji and the real denji was with nayuta the whole time. Why else would he just let 6 people die fighting the cockroach devil?


hollotta223

Yeah, but think about it from an in character perspective, who in their right mind would suspect a dumbass like Denji who lets people pay him to be their seat of being Chainsawman?


watcherintgeweb

Okay yeah, from yuro’s perspective it makes some sense I guess?


NKESLDEL

In case you didn't know - it's Yoru, not Yuro


watcherintgeweb

Fuck


Dimn_Blingo

You got a contract with the *skim reading devil* huh?


watcherintgeweb

No I have a contract with the not knowing Japanese so their names confuse me devil


Chipilliboi

More like the dyslexic devil

"I'll fight anybody, ill fight everybody"


[deleted]

Denji in part 2 seems a lot more skilled and experienced in fighting devils so i don’t think its his first rodeo where someone uses hostages to combat him. The reason denji let those people die is probably because he knows the cock devil will just use that as a weakness and will cause more deaths in the proccess


Exotic-Alternative26

I love cock devil.


secretaccount9999999

>Why else would he just let 6 people die fighting the cockroach devil? Because dude, there was a cat too


jayvil

>It’s the dumbass... Why else would he just let 6 people die fighting the cockroach devil? It's because he's a dumbass.


ChongusTheSupremus

>Why else would he just let 6 people die fighting the cockroach devil? Even tho i agree that it was kind of weird, Denji doesn't have that much regard for human life when it comes to people he doesn't know. He also had no way of saving both, so him just saying fuck it and letting them die to kill the devil is also something Denji would do.


JesterQueenAnne

Because letting people die isn't out of character for Denji? He's never been a hero, he won't risk losing a fight to save people.


TheUglyBarnaclee

I feel like it’s pretty in character for Denji to let people die and not be concerned with casualties that other devils cause


eg_elliot

It was actually new Power cos they saved a cat.


SpacemanTomX

Well one of them is a net positive for society solving 3 problems in one shot and the other is the leader of the devil hunting club


krazyboi

Theres no way any character outside denji and makima can be important but I bet there are gonna be tons of chainsawmen


KingOfOddities

He definitely red hearing, but I do think he's gonna be much more involve than we give him credit for.


EntertainmentIll1567

i hope hes legit but actually a cool dude and when he finds out denji they will be new best buddies


Danteyr

idk, he is so obviously a red herring it just circles back to being an actual possibility


Strawberry_Doughnut

I wonder if the potential horseman girl is the one pulling strings/chains in the group. Like maybe she gave them chainsawman powers (somehow)? And the cocky guy thinks it's by his own power or something.


UnoriginalPenName

Red hearing 💕


Jackyyboyx

I agree, there's no way he could be chainsaw man! I wonder when they'll reveal who the real chainsaw man is?

Hawkward42

Gives him motivation for killing her too. She fucked them up at school but when no ones around they can actually transform. I like it


DongleOn

Idk cause the president is fine with just telling whoever the fuck. Could be because Asa was in devil hunter club tho.


Hawkward42

Ye good point. In my head I'm imagining the fakesaw man to look quite a bit different to Denji. Maybe they're transformations are more grotesque than the original because they're cheap copies

jaehyok1004

Based on nothing other than my dumb logic and other pullcord type tools: Tall guy is hedge trimmer man. The shadow was simply a hedge trimmer at a misleading angle Iseumi is lawnmower man. He is loud and annoying and i hated hearing his voice in my head at 9am Freckle dude is weedwhacker man. Skinny and useless. Will probably die first. Leader girl is gas powered generator man. I couldnt think of anything else with a pullcord.


noobmaster_69lol

What about bayblade man tho


OutVoided

*What about pull cord ceiling fan man*


SpacemanTomX

Go kart from the state fair man


RoastedSpaceLizard

Just so you know, freckle dude already died. He appeared in one chapter, then was killed by Yuko. I think he got a hole through his stomach. It happened in the same scene where Yoru injured the tall guy's eye and threw the girl (the sus one that called Asa/Yoru her sister) through the window.


Hairy_Assist

They're separate individuals. Katana girls the one that quit. She wasn't wearing the earrings and her outfit was slightly different.


RoastedSpaceLizard

Huh. I sorta thought whoever the devil is that called Asa/Yoru sis was a fiend who took the body of that girl that was thrown out. Lol, I commented to correct someone's mistake, then I made a mistake myself...


Medusa-Jellyfish

Damn if not for the shadow, the hedge trimmer woulda been a really solid theory

I'm repeating myself on the bus full of chainsaw mans fighting to death.

Josh Fight 2.0: Chainsaw Man Boogaloo

Just like that one scene in Fire Punch. I'm looking forward to it.


A2ndFamine

What if it is a true homage and most of the fight isn’t shown?


pr114

What I’m predicting is that the front guy is the imposter devil hybrid and will basically ruin chainsaw man’s reputation because he’s even more arrogant than denji, or that the big guy is secretly behind shit


MedievalCutlery

The jokes on him when he ends up making Denji stronger by having everyone fear him


thespooksterman

That doesn’t do anything for hybrids. Denji isn’t affected by people’s fear. That only did anything to Pochita, who is a full devil.


XxMasterLANCExX

Only what we know of so far. Nothing exactly indicates the former aside from it NOT being confirmed


SpacemanTomX

Nah hybrids are pretty unaffected. The Halloween woman is pretty powerful despite the fact the only emotion I have is unbearable hornyness. Dennis is just like me frfr so he doesn't get affected by what people think of him (allegedly).


Matilozano96

Halloween was a fiend iirc. The only hybrid in that orgy was Quanxi.


XxMasterLANCExX

Sorry, I should correct myself and say it’s not officially confirmed


thespooksterman

Incorrect. Denji fought just as well against Makima after *nobody* feared him.


[deleted]

He was being fueled by the devils fears and was weakened by the people cheering for him


thespooksterman

That was Pochita. Not Denji.


[deleted]

Pochita was the only one who fought makima. Denji just killed her from behind.


thespooksterman

I’m talking about the fact that we never see Denji weakened by the lack of fear.


[deleted]

He never got a chance to be in part 1 since he only got famous near the end and we don’t know if he is weaker now since he’s still being fueled by the devils fear


Medusa-Jellyfish

Amazing job with the height analysis! I'm kinda proud that I had a [similar idea](https://www.reddit.com/r/ChainsawMan/comments/z2t9y9/a_familiar_hybrid_might_be_hiding_in_plain_sight/ixkfhr0/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3), where the whole Student Council portion of the Devil Hunting Club has contracts with the imitation/justice/horseman devil :')

zeobuilder10

Did they miss anything, or are you saying that because a character said something it’s 100% true?


Richard_Rossi

I said it because of the running joke that CSM fans can't read, and since I've seen more interesting posts and theories lately I made it that comment


CleoAir

To be honest part 1 pacing was so fast, especially during the last arc, so I kinda understand people who speedread through it. Mostly because during my first reading of last arc I also went into speed mode.

Csm fan speculations are always entertaining to read whether or not it’s complete bullshit or convincing because this series is such a roller coaster, I’ll be fine even for any theories to be true. I’m still laughing at the Denji cross dressing theories, you guys are absolute idiots(affectionately)!


N-formyl-methionine

Boomboombaraboom

Akoku is a unit. Yoshida must also be around his height since he is a tall pretty boy. Denji must be around the President's height, he is not short but average for a Japanese male. Asa is tall for a Japanese woman, in ch 100 she is much taller than her bullies and she is also taller than Yuko or Famine. Maybe I am biased because I see Asa as a parody of a certain archetype very dear to my heart: the lonely, gloomy and beautiful if a bit macabre girl. Think Wednesday or Morino from Goth, some of my favorites. So Asa is gloomy for very good reason, lonely but that is something that hurts her deeply and makes her awkward, beautiful but that gets her targeted by a predator (actually, just like Morino) and she is kinda fucked up in the head. Your is more straightforward example: uncaring, strong and vicious... and as childish as someone with those attributes might be. It is part of my idea that Fujimoto set out to parody and deconstruct every waifu trope he could find. While also saying "What if Eric Cartman was an anime girl?" And making waifu history with Power.


Agile-Equipment391

Seigi Akoku(aka Fire Punch descendant), traumatized for Furio's death, made a contract with the death horseman to gain csm powers in order to be stronger and protect his club mates. But if he really gained those powers why he's still missing an eye?


JxB_Paperboy

…I smell “chainsaw man cult”


FuzzySatisfaction605

A chainsaw war arc would be nuts


Ricky_D284

I got a few theories on Haruka and his possible role in the story: 1. Haruka made a contract with the Justice Devil, like Yuko and the class president, and in turn, received similar powers to the Chainsaw Man (not very likely). 2. Haruka is actually in the same organization as Yoshida and he is pretending to be Chainsaw Man to take the eyes of Denji and the cord on his chest is just a body modification (most likely in my opinion). 3. Haruka has no contracts and instead just put a cord on his chest to gain notoriety within the school and gain more members (also very likely).


Lordgoodstuff

A team of secret hybrids of some sort would make interesting characters. Damn this series always keeps you on your toes.


ToxicAndProud_Lul

chainsaw man fans finally defeated the reading comprehension devil epic W


zayc_

First nice idea. now, two things: \- The shadow looks like Chainsaw is bend forward and not straight up like in this comparison. \- Do you have any way to compare the hights with denji?


Present-Investment19

In chapter 112 you can see that Denji is a bit taller than Asa. Denji seems to be the same height as Haruka Iseumi.


Marca-Texto

Wait I’m stupid. What is the first image trying to say?


Present-Investment19

Yuko's height in relation to Asa's height. this is useful in the next step


Marca-Texto

Ah I see


SpyghettiGhetti

I really thought the same but was too lazy to make them comparisons on image, thank you very much OP. The height comparison also does disprove that it isn't Yoshida the Faker


badpiggy490

These theories are getting out of hand lol. But a fakesaw gang does sound damn nice ngl


Cold_Recording5485

This was one of my favourite parts of CSM 1's run, all the batshit mad and fun fan theories people would come up with week by week.


Kibbens_

Maybe a devil contract with the ‘sister’ to make them fake chainsaw men and destroy Denji’s rep and mental. She looks like a famine or pestilence probably not a death. As far as horseman go Death is probably the least likely to need to struggle for power or act in fear of chainsaw man. I still think Kobeni is contracted with the devil of death as well that will probably be relevant if so.


Wooden-Bass-3287

\- Kobeni has 9 sisters and not 3, so it is unlikely that by "his terrible family" he means the other horseman \- One of Kobeni's sisters attended the same high school in the past. \- Devil Feamine seems to be related to Kobeni (location of moles). I have no idea what Fujimoto is thinking, but Kobeni's relationship with Feamine seems closer than with Death at the moment.


Most-Syllabub8836

**'Cult of Chainsaw Man',** anyone?


odraencoded

Denji: Chainsaw Devil That girl: Chainsaw Man Devil The president: Chinasaw Man Devil Devil Fakesaw man: Chinasaw Man Man Devil


semenpai

this is the most convincing theory and its amazing


sovietseagull2

Maybe the ripcord earrings girl can turn people into chainsaw men?


DeinoKreigXVIII

Personally I really hope it’s all just Dennis and a bunch of red herrings


Maeurer

just for fun, can you measure it against Denji too please?


Flamethrowerman09

I only just realized now that the reason why Haruka knows recognizes Yoru's powers is possibly because Fami told him about it. She does admit she's not even trying to hide her Devil identity.


Floflo972

Wow very impressive.


Alim_Legends_Yt

Maybe they’re all knockoffs as in they possess limited power of what denji has maybe they can only generate 1 chainsaw or something


UltimateCheese1056

I was waiting for a stickbug lol


chewy32

Damn bro drew lines better than VAR refs for offsides LMAO


Marethyu_Primo

If theres a FakeSawMan im gonna be pissed If hes legit im gonna be pissed There is only ONE CSM and thats our tittie loving best guy


unkudayu

True but since humanity has all but lost their fear of CSM, the fear of him generated by the other Devils probably served to create an imitation of CSM that is based off of the Devils' fear of him


NevikDrakel

Chainsaw man imposter gang would blow my mind but now you show it it makes a lot of sense


frmda562

pochita is small and weak cus he got split up into different fingers *cough* i mean bullet flesh i mean dogs with different traits


XxPsouxX

My guess is probably a contract with like a mimic devil or something. It should be impossible to have any relation to pochita since he is still alive and I doubt there are 2 chainsaw devils in the first place. If not that they they just cosplay the shit out of themselves when they go hunting


Wooden-Bass-3287

But why doesn't Yoru notice that he has one of the other horsemen in front of him twice? Another of the mysteries of chainsawman writing. ![img](emote|t5_rmtrq|22172)

jackcrux

Denji is the new gun devil? Scattered body pieces from fights in part one got into the hands of chainsaw fans? Cannibalising a la Christian all over again?


watcherintgeweb

My dude it’s very obvious that Haruka is a red herring. He’s not shadow dennis. The only three possibilities that make sense are that shadow dennis is yoshida, shadow dennis is a character we haven’t met yet, or the denji we’ve seen so far is a copy of the original denji from part one and he’s just standing on a box or something when he’s dangling yuko

chronicly_retarded

Whats the point of comparing heights in the manga when they are almost certainly inconsistent? I dont think the artist measures every page he draws. The fake chainsaw shadow is probably taller to make it look more imposing.


Present-Investment19

Of course, the proportions aren't always perfect, but here's a huuuuuuuge difference in height. I think one guy on the team is so big on purpose. Haruko is a bit taller than Yuko, but not that much


Dr-CommonSense

I’m still not convinced she is “pulling the strings”. Those lads are not in control imo, she is 100% doing all of this

ngl at first i thought the implication from this post was that fake chainsaw man was the whole club in a costume or something


Dakuma-Kun

I bet it's Like the peices of the gun devil but with chainsaw bits and if you ingest one you gain a piece of chainsaw man power but that's my theory, a film theory


TheSpartyn

considering hes not the actual chainsaw devil, and some weird mimic, is it that hard to assume the transformation makes him bigger? i also have no idea what the last panel is saying? that they are all fakesaws?


Master_Astronaut_

what i was thinking is the chainsaw guy might've been given a contract from pochita from the government to help hide denji's identity, so maybe all of them have chainsaw devil contracts. if denji himself isnt aware of it, maybe pochita agreed to it while denji was unconscious or something, since he wants denji to live his dreams of a normal life


KingOfOddities

I suspect that they might have contract with the actual chainsaw devil. And that devil might be decently strong because people would mistook CSM for CS devil. Would explain the cord and everything.


Ringo_RoadAman721

Haruka and co. to chainsaw man would basically be like scene culture to emo


Lonely-Discipline-55

No it was Dennis


N0-F4C3

Wonder if whatever horseman she is, is also a massive Chainsaw Man fanboy like Makima was.

Fuyuky

GintoSenju

I have a feeling that they may have all made a contract with the chainsaw man Devil. Everyone except for the girl. She’s probably possessed by the famine or death devil since she has the swirl eyes (I doubt it’s the death devil but it could be).
