the devil that cares about human life telling the teenage girl to forgive herself.... LONG LIVE LITERATURE

[noven-warsh]

what yoru means- "a devil doesn't feel guilt for things that they have to do for their survival, unlike humans and animals."

what asa understands- "all the things you consider yourself a horrible person for, is really nothing for a devil (actual monsters won't call you a monster/the "evils" you commit are tiny compared to the "evils" a monster commits)"

Chainsaw Man - Chapter 229 “Nightjar and Asa”

I WISH YOU’D LIVE MORE SELFISHLY ASA

I can’t handle all these death flags for our Queen, but god, expecting anything beyond bittersweet from Fujimoto seems like a bad decision.

virgin reader: NOOOOO DENJI IS TALKING ABOUT SEX AGAIN!

chad reader: because the subtext of the chapter is in what Asa actually brought to Yoru in their fusion. Yes, the devil of war cannot understand guilt, because human regrets are nothing compared to what demons do. But Yoru refused to erase Asa out of love for her, just as she offered intimacy with Denji because she knew love through Asa's feelings. That's why the birds only fly in pairs throughout this chapter.

Yoru's contribution to Asa lies precisely in her lack of guilt and selfishness, teaching a teenager girl how to dare to live for herself above all else.

And Asa's contribution to Yoru is affection and attachment.

Whether it's Denji Asa or Yoru, all three want to end their respective loneliness.

Another chapter, another banger oneliner from Yoru

[yuricity67]

their whole characters and 'final fights' are very similiar in a way, but also they're opposite of each other, parallels... anti parallels... wait I'm thinking...... actually no idk man

[rom-30]

Denji really is the Protagonist of all time

Absolute fucking cinema

Nobody does it like Fujimoto
