The Series's Great Turning Point is Chainsaw Man Chapter 167.
Although the debate around Chainsaw Man chapter # 167 is justified, it is unknown how series producer Tatsuki Fujimoto intends viewers to understand the events. Yoru grabs Denji, which makes him unhappy, so the interaction between them begins antagonistic. Denji runs a great risk crossing a line here and will have to face all the anguish he has gone through. Furthermore, even if Chainsaw Man has shown Asa as Denji's actual love, it is most probable Asa will be disgusted by Yoru's activities damaging her and Denji's relationship.
Denji's ignorance of Yoru adds extra complication to things. He has pointed out Asa seems to have two sides to her, although Denji clearly views this more as mood swings than as two separate individuals. Given this, should Fujimoto decide to pursue the more horrific interpretation of the events, it could be preparing Asa to expose Denji the existence of the War Devil.
Chainsaw Man Crossing a Major Line with New Most Controversial Chapter Ever
Although Chainsaw Man has never been without controversy in the past, it is especially unexpected that it would still find a fresh approach to shock readers with the publication of Chapter 167. Denji's main objective across the series has been to satisfy a basic need for close relationship with a lady. Though that could have finally occurred in the most recent part of the series, it's in a method that might eventually cause trauma for all those engaged.
Asa and Katana Man's most recent arc has Asa and Katana Man trying to revive Denji so they may confront him at full capacity as Chainsaw Man. Denji's dissatisfaction with his sex drive reaches a breaking point when an attempt to locate a prostitute for Denji ends in fizzling. Yoru then suggests a penectomy. Readers now find Yoru and Denji in an alleyway in chapter #167 of Chainsaw Man. Her once obliterated memories of kissing Denji resurfaced once Yoru grabs him to try and drive a reaction out of him. Yoru thus tries to make out with Denji. Denji does seem to kiss her back, but his astonished look during most of the meeting makes the consent of the situation dubious. Still, the consequences of Asa resurfacing at the conclusion of the chapter to view the mess Yoru produced will be enormous for the series moving forward.
Chapter # 167, Chainsaw Man, Might Not Be as Traumatic as It Sounds
For Denji at least, there are grounds to believe Fujimoto won't necessarily show the encounter as a negative event even if the possibility for drama is hard to ignore. Though it was contentious in many respects, Mid to late 20s Himeno's invitation to sleep with Denji, who is in high school, is never truly handled by the narrative. Denji may perhaps be more at peace with the circumstances than first impressions might indicate. Conversely, Fujimoto might be able to demonstrate Denji's development by having Denji react adversely, therefore comparing the two circumstances.
Sadly, right now one cannot say one way or another. Though Asa and Denji would both be more than justified in feeling violated, that is not a guarantee they will. Still, Asa's discomfort with intimacy and Denji's past trauma suggest that Yoru's provocative behavior in Chainsaw Man chapter #167 has crossed a threshold that will reverberate over the rest of the series.
The narrative behind Chainsaw Man
Designed by Tatsuki Fujimoto, Chainsaw Man is a western Crunchyroll adaptation of the popular Manga. With the help of his tiny friend Pochita, also known as the Chainsaw Devil, Denji, a young guy laboring nonstop for the Yakuza to pay off the debt saddled him with hunts devils. Pochita protects Denji after the Yakuza kills him in order to obtain a contract with another devil; the two then create a contract enabling Denji to exact revenge upon the Yakuza. Now sought for by an outfit called the Public Safety Division, Denji teams with the enigmatic Makima. Now driven by his newly acquired crush, Makima, Denji pursues Devils assiduously, gradually bringing them to their ultimate destination.
Denji has gone through tremendous suffering during CSM's narrative, but his new sad comment in chapter #165 explains why Chainsaw Man is so innovative. Denji has gone through a lot, yet he is still figuring out his purpose in the world and what he wants out of life. This makes him a relevant figure even if he conducts some quite horrible deeds. It also implies that the show might be somewhat dark yet also quite hopeful. Future narrative lines and development in the series have huge possibilities.
