More chainsaw man thoughts.

I've seen claims that all the weapon devils are also Yoru's children as they were also born out of conflict/war. I decided to look a bit more into the history of war as a concept to kind of understand how this could be.

Unfortunately, there remains no clear answer.

There are 2 major beliefs on the origin of war depending on how you define it. If you think of war as purely conflict between two groups, then war has existed since the dawn of time. This would mean that yes, all of the weapon devils are war's children, but so would rocks. Humans have always had an affinity for defending themselves with whatever they had at their disposal. This would tie in with the weapon creation ability. The other definition is that war only came about through civilization and social structures. This would make it more reasonable to think of the gun and tank devils as her kids as they were born explicitly out of war. It also makes her the youngest of the horsemen as the concept of control would have to preceed the desire for warfare.

Following the second definition, I will now break down the weapons and decipher if they are her children. Following the list found on geh chainsaw man wiki because I am lazy with a capital L.

Chainsaws are not weapons but rather objects that have the capacity to be weapons. They were designed for child birth. He like has a more midwife-patient relationship with Yoru than child-mother.

Swords (katana, longsword), spears, bows, and whips would also predate the concept of war. This also holds for the first definition of war. These objects can be used for other purposes (hunting, defense) and not necessarily just for war. So they don't necessarily have to be her children, just things that aid her cause.

The flamethrower, however, could also be one of her kids. But given that Yoru is a notoriously shitty mom, i would not be surprised if she forgot about him for not being as powerful as her other kids. Not to mention, it also has applications in peaceful contexts being used in agriculture.

The same thing extends to the bomb devil. Bomb definitely came about due to warfare, but nowadays, it is used for a multitude of purposes. The bomb devil was sent from the Soviet Union, which indicates it was also being possessed and controlled. Without the existence of nuclear weapons and the lack of active war, it's likely the bomb devil would have been servery weakened over time, making it less appealing to Yoru. Following the timeline of creation, the gun and bomb devil would actually be twins, imo so do with that what you will.

As for the tank devil, it would seem it is her youngest child and therefore has a lot of contention around it. It is also built on the same concept of the gun, making it a very likely companion for the gun devil.

My best theory is that the flamethrower was her first kid with the disel devil, they had a messy split so she kinda disowned him. The other 2 were born with the gunpowder devil. And the tank devil was born with the vehicle devil. So Yoru is just a messy baby mama.

Tldr; Yes. It is possible that some of the weapon hybrids are also Yoru's kids, namely the flamethrower devil and the bomb devil. Yoru is just a shitty mom that likes to disown her kids whenever they don't serve a purpose for her.

Chainsaw Man Chapter 145: Kumbaya

Wow, a whole lot of questions have arisen from this chapter. Yoshida appears, Asa makes a move, the prophecy creeps ever forward as the Chainsaw Man church is captured. Fujimoto can make a lot happen in a chapter when they really want to.

So, Mr. Public Safety Devil Hunter here says two interesting things to open up this chapter. He talks about wanting War to mutually destroy Chainsaw Man, and he alludes to Chainsaw Man being God. Yeah, capital G there.

So, what do they mean? Clearly, Public Safety (through the Future Devil) became aware of the Nostradamus Prophecy a while back, and have understood that Denji has a key role to play in it. Fami corroborates this theory as she tries to weaken him.

And the second image. Well, that one's sort of obvious. Chainsaw is revered as a Devil unlike any other, the only ones we've not seen it conquer is the primal devils. Even then, he got pretty close with the Falling Devil.

Anyways, one of the big reveals of the chapter: the Justice Devil.

When you look at its design language, you see nothing of the fiendish appearances from previous instances of "justice devil" contracts. So what could be going on here?

There's a few ideas, but first its important to gather up the facts.

Firstly, the corpse of the Justice Devil was beneath the Chainsaw Man church. Secondly, Fami at the minimum had control of the Falling Devil. Third, the Justice Devil and Falling Devil appeared at sunset and the Falling Devil returned at sunrise. Fourth, the devil that has formed contracts with people throughout the story is claimed to not be the Justice Devil.

So, my first theory. The Justice Devil actually did form contracts with the individuals in question. However, these contracts weren't formed on Earth. Devils "forget" about Hell, but are a new iteration of themselves each time they appear on Earth. The "them" that exists in hell is the original, so what would happen if someone formed a contract with a devil in hell? It's not the most likely, as Fujimoto probably hasn't mislead readers with the identity of this Devil, but you never know.

The more likely theory though is that the Devil that formed a contract with these individuals under the guise of the Justice Devil, is the same one that gave Fakesaw Man his abilities. But what could it mean, is the real question. Does this unnamed Devil impart the abilities and nature of "Justice" onto individuals in how each person understands it? The class president and the Chainsaw Man church believer both sport at least a little similarity in design language with the idea of multiple heads, which makes sense given the selfish nature of each. Yuko's appearance though is largely different from theirs, which is once more understandable considering the difference in reasoning.

So, what could this devil that's been masquerading as Justice be? I think the one that comes to mind the quickest is "Desire", or something similar. The Devil requires the ability to fulfill the interests or needs of the individual, and to do so in a very direct way. Yeah, we've seen a lot of this "Justice" in Part 2, but we should remember that in part 1 almost all the devil contracts out there did not do anything to change the appearances of the individuals forming the contracts. The only example off the top of my head is the Zombie Devil.

But going further than that is the question of how Fami got this Devil on their side, and even further why she's playing so many angles at once. Betting on "both sides" she aims to kill Asa and Yoru, but also empower them through the Chainsaw Man church? There's a very long game going on here with Fami and the Nostradamus Prophecy, and I'm very very curious to see how it all ends up going down.

Anyways, here's another Asa door moment. Couldn't be a CSM protagonist without them.

Following this, two very big things happen. The first is the sun goes down. Drawing attention to this is signaling that another devil will appear. Whether it's a primal devil or not, or even potentially the revival of the Justice Devil I've no idea, but a threat looms on the horizon.

This idea begs the question of why the weapons were trying to create a massacre at the amusement park today though. It seems probable that their entire goal was to have a new devil appear come sunset (considering Barem's reaction), so it makes me wonder why they would try to do something so pointless.

The second though, is Asa's arm getting cut off. This is really big for two reasons. One, badass Yoshida in action looking like a young (and hot) Kishibe.

Secondly, and more importantly, it's the first time Asa's been severely injured since Yoru revived her. What are the mechanisms for regeneration and healing with Asa? How much can she heal, if it all? Is regeneration entirely on Yoru, does she have to be in control of the body to heal?

There's a lot of questions with this piece, because unlike all the other hybrids that have a "starter" for their transformation, Asa's is implicit. There's nothing that "kickstarts" her hybrid form, simply because she doesn't have one. Does that mean that she'd heal closer to how a Fiend might? That is, the act of transformation alone cannot regenerate or heal like it does for Denji?

I'm very very curious to see what happens here, because oddly enough this is a piece that can massively affect how we view exactly what Asa and Yoru are.

We're quickly barreling towards the date of July 18, 1999, the date of the last lunar eclipse of the 20th century, and with chapters like these we're piling on all sorts of curious odds and ends that will undoubtedly play a role in this impending night of terror. Really can't wait to see what Fujimoto does with it next.
