Hello, I am KENTA, a Japanese who loves manga. In this article, we will thoroughly discuss the identity of Pochita, the biggest mystery of the very popular dark hero action manga “Chainsaw Man,” and we will look into her bond with Denji, Pochita’s amazing power, and her past. Read this and you too will be immersed in the world of “Censorman”!
Pochita and Denji Meet
Pochita and Denji first met in a shabby, rain-drenched hut. Denji, who has lost hope for life due to the huge debt he has incurred since his father’s death, meets a wounded Pochita, who gives him her blood and makes a contract to survive. They become devil hunters and make a living hunting demons together.
One day, Denji and Pochita are attacked from behind by a gangster and a zombie demon, killing Denji. However, Pochita sucks Denji’s blood and becomes his heart, and Denji is resurrected as the chainsaw demon “Chainsaw Man. Through this contract, Pochita becomes Denji’s heart and wishes to share Denji’s dream.
What is Pochita’s true identity?
Pochita’s true identity is that of a chainsaw demon. However, his power is more than just that of a chainsaw demon; he is also a hero of hell; Pochita was a charismatic figure feared and worshipped by the demons, but when he meets Denji, he is transformed into a puppy-like figure.
The reason why Pochita is feared as the “chainsaw man,” the hero of hell, lies in his special ability. Normally, demons are resurrected after being killed, but demons eaten by the Chesow Man have the terrifying power to completely disappear and their existence is erased from memory. This ability has caused Nazis, nuclear weapons, World War II, and AIDS to disappear from the world.
Relationship to the Demons of War
In the second part of the Chainsaw Man, a new character, the War Devil, appears and states, “I will make you spit out your nuclear weapons.” This suggests that Pochita and the war demon have fought in the past. It is thought that the concept of nuclear weapons disappeared from the world after the nuclear demons were eaten at that time.
Pochita was also a being that would appear in response to cries for help in hell and slaughter everything, including the demon that cried out. Because of this unusual ability and brutality, Pochita was noted and feared by many demons.
Another thought on Pochita’s true identity
Some considerations exist that dispute Pochita’s identity as a chainsaw demon. It is said that the more fearsome the name of the demon, the stronger it is, but the name chainsaw certainly seems a bit weak compared to warfare and disease. For this reason, some have questioned whether Pochita is really a chainsaw demon.
Some fans point out that Pochita looks like a dog, and that if you read dog backwards, it becomes “GOD,” and they speculate that Pochita may actually be a divine demon. It is also noted that the wound Pochita had when she met Denji was a scar that looked like a gunshot wound. This suggests that Pochita may have been wounded in a fight with a gun demon.
What was the entity that hunted Pochita down?
The theory that Pochita was wounded in a fight with a gun demon is very plausible. The gun demon is powerful enough to possess Aki Hayakawa, who died, or to kill 1.2 million people in a five-minute continental landing. However, the gun demon has already been defeated and it is not clear who defeated it.
It is possible that the war demon may have weakened Pochita, as the war demon holds a grudge against Pochita. Since the war demon uses guns, it could also have inflicted gunshot-like scars on Pochita.
Although there are still many mysteries about Pochita’s identity and past battles, these mysteries will be revealed to further deepen the worldview of “The Chainsaw Man”. Expectations for future developments are high.
Conclusion
Pochita is like a family member to Denji, and by sharing her heart, she has become a partner in making Denji’s dreams come true. There are many mysteries about Pochita’s past and her battles, and we look forward to the unraveling of these mysteries in future stories.
