Download Anime Chainsaw Man Episode 9

Chainsaw Man is an anime television series based on the manga series of the same name written and illustrated by Tatsuki Fujimoto. The series, produced by MAPPA, was announced on December 14, 2020.[1][2] It adapts the first 38 chapters of the manga series.[3] The series is directed by Ry Nakayama (director) and Makoto Nakazono (chief episode director), with scripts by Hiroshi Seko, character designs by Kazutaka Sugiyama, and Devil designs by Kiyotaka Oshiyama. Tatsuya Yoshihara is serving as action director and Ysuke Takeda is directing the art. Naomi Nakano is the color key artist and Yohei Miyahara is designing the screens. The music is composed by Kensuke Ushio.[4][5][6]

The series follows the story of Denji, an impoverished young man who makes a contract that fuses his body with that of a dog-like devil named Pochita, granting him the ability to transform parts of his body into chainsaws. Denji eventually joins the Public Safety Devil Hunters, a government agency focused on fighting against devils whenever they become a threat to Japan.

First, the animation style. I was not expecting MAPPA to go a more muted and subdued color palette for this anime, but it works shockingly well. The shadowed and darker backgrounds and scenery, really help to play up the colorfulness of the characters and important moments, as well as all the beautiful gory carnage that Chainsaw Man enacts on his enemies.

MAPPA has certainly kept true to the writing of the manga in this adaptation. I was nearly brought to tears in the first episode just by how emotional and sweet the connections between the characters were, and I was splitting my sides with laughter at some of the exchanges in episode two. Tatsuki Fujimoto definitely created a manga masterpiece of storytelling and tone, with a rollercoaster of emotions and feelings both the characters and the audience go through as the story progresses.

No more than five minutes into episode one I already felt for Denji. Orphaned at a young age and crippled into debt by a bunch of shady yakuza men perpetually keeping him poor, seeing him resort to selling body parts was especially painful.

When his father died, Denji was stuck with a huge debt and no way to pay it back. Thanks to a Devil dog he saved named Pochita, he's able to survive through odd jobs and killing Devils for the Yakuza. Pochita's chainsaw powers come in handy against these powerful demons. When the Yakuza betrays him and he's killed by the Zombie Devil, Pochita sacrifices himself to save his former master. Now Denji has been reborn as some kind of weird Devil-Human hybrid. He is now a Chainsaw Man!

Like a lot of anime openers, this one focuses on world-building and setup. There are devils and their devil hunter counterparts. There are shady underworld yakuza (Japanese organized crime) dealings. And there's our main character, Denji (played by Kikunosuke Toya in the Japanese dub), who's... how can I put this delicately? Simple.

Denji has the makings of a stock anime protagonist. Tragic backstory with a dead parent or guardian? Check. Chasing a dream in spite of dreadful circumstances? Check. Improbable way of obtaining powers? You bet. Still, you can't help but root for him.

He's down on his luck, living in deplorable conditions, and hunting devils to pay off his late father's debts. And as a teenage boy, all he wants to do is eat good food and get a girlfriend. Can't really argue with that. It also helps that he has such an endearing relationship with his devil-dog, which, by the way, has a chainsaw protruding out of its face.

When the Chainsaw Man finally makes his grand entrance and lets it rip, that's really the highlight of the episode. We see zombie-devil guts and limbs splatter across the screen, accompanied by the sound of heavy metal and gnashing of chainsaw blades, and you can tell the show's artists put some thought and care into the violence.

So far, the story is just an excuse to see Denji eviscerate monsters, but that's not to say it'll always be this way. The creator of the manga (Japanese comic), Tatsuki Fujimoto, is known for his absurd, volatile, yet compelling storytelling, and if the show stays faithful to its source material, this episode is just a setup for the punchline.

The anime offers nothing wildly impressive for now, but it's just enough of a tease in a 24-minute package to hook me. If you like the carnage you see in the first episode, then you might want to stick around to see where the story goes.

Warning: SPOILERS for Chainsaw Man episode 1The highly anticipated premiere of Chainsaw Man not only started off strong as longtime manga fans expected but began with a dark scene that actually didn't appear until much later in the manga.

Anime studios have always had the tough job of walking the fine line between staying completely true to the mangaka's original work and adding their own creative flourishes. Although few comply 100% to their main sources of inspiration, some anime studios stray more than others like the first Fullmetal Alchemist anime did (especially its controversial ending) before Brotherhood returned to the manga's roots. For the most part, anime studio MAPPA seems to have stuck almost completely to mangaka Tatsuki Fujimoto's first chapter of Chainsaw Man except, ironically, for the opening scene.

In the opening sequence of Chainsaw Man's first episode, the main character Denji who eventually becomes the eponymous Chainsaw Man can be heard breathing heavily as he slowly makes his way down an alleyway leading to an ominous-looking door. The closer he comes to this door, the more the viewer realizes there's an eye peering out through a peephole. Then, as Denji reaches out cautiously to turn the door handle, he wakes up.

This unsettling scene doesn't occur until chapter 38 of the manga where Denji recounts these moments as part of a dream he has been having. Unlike the manga itself, there's nothing in the anime adaptation that explains who or what is behind that door. Its only purpose in the anime is to create a sense of unsettling tension. The manga, by comparison, makes it abundantly clear what is behind that door and how that relates to Denji. At first, readers are led to assume that this scene is cr Chainsaw Man's version Naruto's relationship to Kurama. The manga later references the door in chapter 71 when Denji seems to come to a decision on how he should view it without giving any definitive answer. The truth isn't fully realized until 11 chapters later during a rather intense plot twist that no one was expecting.

What lies behind that disturbing door is actually something that has allowed Denji to pursue a normal life, one that viewers first learn about in episode one of the Chainsaw Man anime. What's incredible is that anime-goers won't get this burning question answered in the first season. It probably won't even happen by the second season, either if the anime adaptation honors Fujimoto's original work. The fact that MAPPA chose to include this door in not only the first episode will undoubtedly place more importance on the door and what it represents than the original manga. This is actually a smart move on MAPPA's part since the door and its contents do play a crucial role in Denji's overall story and deserve to have more screen time than Chainsaw Man's original manga devoted to it.

Or, there could be Devils with the ability to revive people. Later in the episode, it looked like the girl with the Snake Devil revived the Sword Devil guy. Basically, there are many ways to revert the deaths of all the Division 4 members.

Chainsaw Man episode 12 is releasing on December 27 at 9:00 AM Pacific/12:00 PM Eastern. That's 5:00 PM GMT in the UK. It'll be available in the west to Crunchyroll Premium users, so you'll need to sign up and subscribe to watch. In Japan, it's on Amazon Prime Video on December 28 at 1:00 AM JST.

I'm the Senior Entertainment Writer here at GamesRadar+, focusing on news, features, and interviews with some of the biggest names in film and TV. On-site, you'll find me marveling at Marvel and providing analysis and room temperature takes on the newest films, Star Wars and, of course, anime. Outside of GR, I love getting lost in a good 100-hour JRPG, Warzone, and kicking back on the (virtual) field with Football Manager. My work has also been featured in OPM, FourFourTwo, and Game Revolution.

Another main character in the series we meet in this episode is the mysterious devil hunter Makima, who finds Denji after his bloody battle with the Zombie Devil. Makima, played by Tomori Kusunoki is only in the episode briefly at the end, but she will be an important part of the series going forward, and Kusunoki does a great job in the role. I look forward to seeing how she continues to play the character.

For international audiences, Crunchyroll is simulcasting the series. The episode with English subtitles should be out around an hour after its release in Japan. In the United States, that would be at the following times on Tuesday:
