Original subtitles

All devils are born with names.

And the more those names are feared, the more powerful the devil is said to become.

Coffee isn't considered very frightening, so a Coffee Devil would probably be weak.

But what about a Car Devil?

It's easy to imagine being run over and dying, so it would probably be strong.

So, consider...

CHAINSAW MAN

It's about 60,000 a month for cutting down trees, right?

Then there's the kidney I sold. That was 1.2 million.

My right eye was 300,000.

Sold one of my nuts... How much was that, again?

I think... not even 100,000.

But a dead devil's usually good for about 300,000.

Devil hunting pays the best, Pochita.

Nice work, Denji!

This carcass will bring in a fair price on the black market.

I'll pay you 400,000.

Hey, thanks!

After what you owe and the interest, that leaves 170,000.

And after the finder's fee, and so on...

Leaves me with 70,000.

After the water bill, and some other stuff I owe...

Funny how that works. I'm down to 1,800 yen.

No food at home, and this is gonna have to last us a month, so...

Pochita, looks like dinner's gonna be a slice of bread.

Why hire a brat like that to hunt devils?

He's paying off what he owes us.

Well, technically what his deadbeat old man owed us.

Hey, kid!

I'll give you 100 yen to eat this cigarette.

For real?

Don't mind if I do.

We'll be in touch when there's another devil.

Try and run, and you're pig slop.

100 yen!

That'll keep us for another three days.

The other day I heard that normally, people put jam on their bread, before eating it.

Normal's just a dream for us, though.

Doubt I'll pay off this debt before I die.

Probably gonna die without ever having a girlfriend, too.

Not like I could invite a girl to this dump. No money to go on dates, either.

If I could have one dream come true... I wanna score with a girl before I die.

Bastard hung himself without paying this month's installment first.

Boy!

I don't care if you beg for it or whore yourself out,

but you've got until tomorrow to put 700,000 together.

Otherwise, we chop you up and sell the bits.

A chainsaw...

A devil!

If you're gonna kill me, just do it. I'm dead either way!

It's hurt? You're gonna die, too?

Bite me!

I heard that drinking blood heals a devil.

If you don't wanna die, bite me!

But my blood's not free!

This is a deal.

I'll help you, so you help me.

Because I don't wanna die, after all.

Why don't you hire me as a devil hunter?

Too hungry to sleep.

When I can't sleep, I start thinking about money,

and then it's even harder to sleep.

I know what dream I wanna have when I sleep.

Gonna put jam on my bread, and share it with you,

then flirt with a girl.

I'll play video games with her, and then we'll fall asleep hugging each other.

Sounds sweet, right?

Y'know, I heard my mom died from some heart disease that made her cough up blood.

Denji! Got a devil for you.

Time for work.

Wish they'd at least let me dream.

There's a devil in here, huh?

I don't see anything.

Denji, my boy...

We're pretty grateful to you, y'know?

You're as loyal as a dog,

and you work for cheap like one, too.

Only problem is...

I hate dogs. Can't stand the stench.

Even yakuza think about getting bigger and making more money, y'know.

So we did like you and made a deal with a devil.

We wanted demonic power...

And I want devil hunters... to die!

Little devil hunter, these guys are dumb as hell!

I offer them a bit of demonic power, and they offer to become my slaves!

Even though the power turns them into zombies.

See, because I'm the Zombie Devil!

And I hate devil hunters, because you go around killing us devils!

So I'm gonna kill you!

Boys, tear him apart and toss him in the trash!

All I wanted was a normal life.

And I can't even have that?

Pochita.

Pochita?

Pochita, time for work.

Pochita, there's a good chance I'm gonna die fighting a devil.

My only regret would be leaving you on your own.

You could end up starving to death, or some other devil hunter might kill you.

I've heard some devils can take over dead bodies.

If you can do that, then I want you to have my body.

The yakuza won't be on your case if you wait until I'm in the ground.

And then you could move out of here.

And then...

I want you to live a normal life, and die a normal death.

You've gotta make my dream come true!

Pochita?

Did you take my body, like I said?

I always loved hearing you talk about your dreams, Denji.

Here's the deal.

I'll give you my heart.

In exchange, I want you to show me your dream.

Pochita?!

I'm healed?

Pochita?!

You're alive after being sliced up?!

Gross! I seriously hate devil hunters!

Guys, go ahead and eat him!

These guys had plenty already, so why did they want even more?

Am I the same?

I could've been satisfied living with Pochita, but I always dreamed about a better life.

I guess we all have dreams like that, huh?

I can't blame you, then.

And I won't, but...

If you get in our way?

You'll die!

What are you?!

Did that devil runt take over your body?!

That means you're one of us!

I guess you guys went full devil, huh?!

Well, you hired me to be a devil hunter, so I better kill all the devils, right?!

Oh, yeah!

Once you're all dead, I won't owe a damn thing!

Stay back!

Get away!

Don't come near me!

Someone got here before us.

There's still one alive.

You've got a strange smell.

Not like a human or a devil.

You did all this?

H-Hug me.

He's human.

Any chance he's possessed?

No. I can tell who's possessed with a look at their face.

I'm a Devil Hunter from Public Safety who came here to kill the Zombie Devil.

You have two options.

I can kill you like a devil,

or I can keep you as a human.

If I keep you, I'll make sure you're fed.

When you say that... like, what's for breakfast?

Bread with butter and jam,

salad, coffee...

And then maybe something for dessert, I think.

That sounds awesome.

Aki Hayakawa

Himeno

Kobeni Higashiyama

Hirokazu Arai

What's your name?

Makima.

Denji

Samurai Sword

Chainsaw Man

Denji, this is the Tokyo headquarters for our Devil Hunters.

People have said I was filthy and smelled bad my whole life.

No one's ever been nice to me before.

Much less a girl who looks this good!

I love her.

Denji?

Y-Yes?

How did you end up like this?

I had a pet devil, and he replaced my heart.

Kinda hard to believe, huh?

I don't really wanna believe it, either. Pochita dying for my sake...

There's not a lot of precedent for your condition,

even from a historical perspective.

It doesn't even have a name.

I believe you.

I've got a particularly good sense of smell, so I can tell.

Your best friend is alive inside of you.

Not in the sentimental sense, either.

Your body has the scents of both a human and a devil.

Is that right?

That's awesome! Really awesome!

Ms. Makima...

Is... Is... Is—

Is there a type of guy you like?

I'm into the "Denji" type.

Denji?

Dude, that's me.

Excuse me.

Hayakawa here has been working this job three years longer than you.

You'll be shadowing him today.

I'm not gonna be working with you?!

That should be obvious.

You're not even in her league.

Time for patrol.

No! Ms. Makima!

If you do a good job, we can work together someday.

So, do that, okay?

We'll get out of your hair.

If Makima likes me,

Then maybe, if we work together, we'll eventually get together?

And if we get together... we can get together, right?!

I wanna! I wanna get together with her, real bad!

Hey, big man, does Ms. Makima have a boyfriend?

Hey, come on. Hey!

Come with me.

You need to quit this job.

Show up tomorrow, and I'll kick your ass again.

Why, though?

Look, I'm trying to be nice, here.

People who start this job without thinking it through end up dead.

I've had colleagues who got into devil hunting for the payday,

and they were all killed by devils.

The survivors are the ones with real motivation.

You joined up because you're after Ms. Makima, right?

Ding-ding!

Then I'm glad I hit you.

I'll explain what happened to her.

Say that you ran off, scared away by the devils.

You're a real nice guy, huh?

Because when I! Fight a dude!

It's nuts! Or nothing!

I was treated like a human for the first time today, man.

Even got treated to a meal.

It's like a dream come true for me.

I didn't really think it through when I started devil hunting,

but if I can keep up this kinda life? I don't care if it kills me.

Actually, I take it back. It's not just my life anymore.

Ms. Makima...

Is not the kind of woman a punk like you should be chasing!

What the hell? Sounds to me that you just like her, too!

You...

You... really did...

only aim... for my balls.

Shit.

The big guy's testicles were attacked by the Nut Devil, ma'am!

That's a lie. He's lying.

So, do you think you two can work together?

No way!

He's a piece of trash!

I'm glad you two are hitting it off.

Denji, you're going to be joining Hayakawa's unit.

Unit?

This punk?!

I've already got enough troublemakers, don't I?

Adding another...

Remember what I told you when I put together Special Division 4?

It's an experimental group, operating differently from the usual method.

What exactly is he, ma'am?

Denji's human, but can transform into a devil.

Damn right! Pretty sweet, huh?

And that's the truth?

I always figured those stories were baseless rumors.

He's special.

Which is why he's going to be receiving special treatment.

If he tries to resign, or becomes insubordinate,

Denji will be disposed of as a devil.

What's that mean?

It means we're working together until you die.

Hey, is Ms. Makima a bad person?

If you're really a devil, you should just be grateful she doesn't kill you.

We're Devil Hunters, got that?

So, she's a good person, then?

Of course she is.

She... saved my life.

Ms. Makima... I hope she gives me a hug again.

There's a Fiend down here.

What's a Fiend?

Did you never go to school or something?

Nah, man, no.

Fiends are devils that possess human corpses.

You kill this one.

Turn into a devil, and show me what you can do.

That'll help me figure out if you're of any use.

Don't look at me!

You're dead! Dead, dead, dead! Damn Devil Hunters!

Hey.

Why didn't you use your devil powers?

Thing is, when I kill devils with my powers, they get real messed up.

So, like...

I coulda ended up like this Fiend, right?

I wanted to make it painless for him.

All right. Listen to me.

Fiends are just like any other devil.

If you're hunting them, then drop the sympathy.

My entire family was killed by a devil, right in front of me.

I've had drinks with the cops around here.

They're risking their lives to protect their wives and kids.

Everyone is serious about this except you.

I'd rather make any devil I kill suffer as much as possible.

What are you trying to do? Make friends with them?

If there's a devil I could be friends with, then yeah. 'Cuz I don't have any friends.

I'll remember that.

Guess I pissed him off.

I was just trying to keep blood off these dirty magazines.

When the chainsaws are out, blood gets everywhere and makes a real mess.

I made it easy for you, so I get to keep these!

Okay, the porn is secured.

I want you to show me your dream.

I'm pretty serious about this, Pochita!

I'm already living the dream, just like our bargain said.

My dream's already come true.

But I bet he's chasing after something, still.

I get to eat good food, and hang around with a hot chick...

Life's a 10 outta 10, but it feels like something is missing.

Am I missing something? Something that'd give me a real perfect score?

He's gotta be after some revenge shit.

I wonder if Ms. Makima is after anything like that.

Ms. Makima...

Ms. Makima...

I wanna touch her boobs.

Touching boobs is a dream I gave up on a long time ago,

but I've got a real job now! Maybe I could pull it off?!

Everyone is serious about this except you.

So, that's what he meant!

I've found it! Something to be serious about! My goal!

It's...

Boobs!

Boobs?

Hey! Pay attention, dumbass!

Listen to what?

I'm assigning you a partner, starting today, Denji.

Partner?

As a precaution, Public Safety executes patrols

and smaller missions with two-person teams.

This is great timing. She's here.

Be careful. She's a Fiend.

Prostrate yourselves, humans!

For I am Power!

Are you to be my so-called partner?!

Power?! Your name's Power?!

And you're a Fiend?!

Are Fiends allowed to be Devil Hunters?!

Well, whatever! Nice to meet you!

Fiends are usually targets for extermination,

but Power's highly rational, so she's been on Hayakawa's team.

Human! Provide me with something to kill, immediately!

I am starved for blood!

I can put up with crazy, as long as she's hot enough.

The question is, how do I get my hands on those boobs?

If you run into any civilian Devil Hunters,

or the police try to question you about what you're doing...

We're with Public Safety Devil Extermination Special Division 4!

Say that, show them your ID, and they'll make a sour face and leave you alone.

Special Division 4 is an experimental unit.

The higher-ups will be looking to dissolve it if you don't get results.

I don't need to explain what happens to you two if that happens, do I?

Where the hell are all the devils?!

This is likely my fault!

Before becoming a Fiend, I was a devil that was feared by all!

Demonic peons will likely flee the moment they catch my scent!

Wait, how are we gonna get anything done, then?!

The scent of blood!

Whoa! Hey, crazy, where are you going?!

Damn, she's fast.

The scene's evacuated and blocked off.

Requesting backup in front of Nerima Station. It's the Sea Cucumber Devil.

The game is afoot!

The battle is joined!

I said it's the Sea Cucumber—

Sea cucumber!

Do you know what a sea cucumber—

Cucumber?

Do you see?!

The kill is mine!

If Public Safety kills a civilian hunter's devil,

we're guilty of obstructing their business.

Normally, you'd be arrested for that kind of thing.

Power, you're going to need to think a bit more before acting.

And you'll have to get her under control, Denji.

I'm in trouble, too?

Before becoming a Fiend, Power was the Blood Devil,

so she's got a talent for using blood in battle,

but she also gets worked up easily.

Maybe she's not cut out to be a Devil Hunter after all...

I-It was he who commanded me to kill!

No, I didn't! I did not! How can you just like lie like that?!

It is no lie! It was him! The human ordered me to kill this devil!

That's the truth!

What a creep.

Ms. Makima, this devil's a total liar!

You oughta arrest her! Right now!

You're under arrest for being a fake-ass liar!

Not true! It was by his command!

Devils do not lie! It is only humans who do!

No one ever said that! And you're the reason why! Dumbass!

Shitty liar!

Humans and your filthy lies! I only did as I was told!

Why do you talk like that, anyway?!

It's so creepy!

Could you quiet down?

Y-Yes.

Very good, Power.

Honestly, I don't really care who got in whose way.

I want to see the two of you working well together.

Can you show me that?

We... w-we can.

Maybe I should worry about copping a feel some other time.

I hate humans.

It's not a matter of personal grievance.

My hatred is almost like a demonic instinct.

And I hate devils, too.

Since one of them took my pet Meowy away.

Before I was able to recover Meowy, I fell into Makima's clutches.

My dear may be dead already, and yet I find it hard to give up hope.

If it lets me retrieve Meowy from that devil,

I'm willing to abide humans, or whatever else I must do.

I doubt you'd understand such concern for a cat.

For a cat? That's dumb as hell.

But I'd do whatever it takes to fondle some boobs.

It seems I may never understand humans.

But I think I'd get you, if it was a dog.

What would you say to the prospect of fondling my chest,

after retrieving Meowy from that devil?

That fucking devil...

Thinks he can just kidnap some poor cat?!

Well, I don't think so!

As a Devil Hunter, I say no!

I'm gonna kill the shit out of that devil!

I know where the devil that kidnapped Meowy dwells.

The concern that you are the only one who can fight it.

He's likely to use Meowy as a shield upon seeing me.

If that happens, then all is lost.

I had a pet devil named Pochita, y'know?

I can't pet him anymore, but it's cool. Because he's alive in here.

How foolish you humans are.

Does that not mean Pochita is dead?

Death is the absence of life.

This nonsense about living on in your heart is little more than miserable self-comfort.

Uh-huh. I guess so.

I don't think I'm ever gonna get along with her.

I don't think I'm ever gonna get along with him.

There! Meowy and the devil are in there.

Well, we better get going, then.

I hope I don't have to chainsaw out. Losing all that blood's a drag.

Chainsaw?

Yeah, I can turn into a buncha chainsaws.

Human jokes leave much to be desired.

What is it now?

Isn't he gonna use the cat as a hostage if he sees you?

Should you even, like, be this close?

Oh, is that what I said?

What you said...?

I misspoke.

Fool that you are, it seems your instincts are sharp.

You kept me waiting for a long time, Blood Devil.

I thought you had run away.

Spare me your complaints! It took me this long to gain some freedom.

I've brought a human, just as you demanded, Bat!

My first meal in ages...

A young man? I'm sure his blood will be full of vigor!

Look at my arm, human.

The wound your kind gave me.

Like I give a shit. Dumbass.

Food shouldn't speak!

Time to heal the wound humans gave me.

With human blood!

Disgusting!

I've been revived.

With awful-tasting blood!

The inside of my mouth tastes disgusting...

I need to cleanse my palate with another human.

I'm amazed you actually believed my story.

Humans truly are foolish.

Are you trying to make friends with devils?

Bat Devil! I brought you a human as promised!

Release Meowy.

But I haven't punished you for bringing me such nasty blood yet, have I?

Meowy...

Meowy! Your name shall be Meowy!

You smell tasty for a cat.

So spindly, though.

Let's put some meat on those bones before I feast.

Grow big and strong, now.

I'm looking forward to killing you, Meowy.

I've killed all who've met my eyes.

It's become strange to hear a voice that isn't screaming.

So strange...

You said you couldn't pet Pochita anymore, yes?

I understand how you feel now.

'Tis is an awful feeling.

Nasty!

All of this repulsive blood!

The inside of my mouth feels filthy!

I need to gargle with the blood of children!

After I gargle, a virgin should make a fine appetizer.

A mature, healthy woman for a soup, and a beefy man for a main course.

And a pregnant woman for dessert!

Gimme my tits back!

You're drinking my blood?!

That's disgusting!

I don't even feel like drinking your blood!

There was a time I couldn't find Pochita.

He was gone when I woke up in the morning,

and I looked all over town, but couldn't find him.

I thought a devil might've eaten him.

But when I got home, he was crying and waiting for me.

I remember being so relieved, I fell asleep holding him.

I wonder how she felt when she tried to sleep, knowing that devil had Meowy.

You're a devil?!

Son of a...

Hey, asshole!

Bring it on!

How's that?!

Fool!

Dammit! Where is he?! Where did he go?!

I'm up here!

Damn you! Get off! Get down from there!

Get off of me!

Wh-Why are you alive?!

Through all of this crap...

I've been about as patient as possible.

So how come I haven't gotten to cop a single damn feel yet?!

Stay away!

If you want to save this cat, then bring me a human.

One life is worth as little as any other. And this is only a cat.

So why do I run? Why do I search for a human?

Is it to save Meowy?

Such a foolish reason.

I love blood.

The taste, the smell, the sense of mortality...

And then...

There is something I only recently realized

The blood is warm, and feels very pleasant.

Why did you save me?

I attempted to kill you.

Such a foolish reason.

Forgive my deceit.

Since Meowy is safe, you may fondle my chest.

Hell yeah!

Holy shit! Ow!

Can you move?

Not even a finger.

Take Meowy and flee, please!

Damn it, not enough chainsaw, I must be low on blood.

It's you, right? The one who killed Batty.

He was my man, y'know?!

Oh, but you're actually pretty cute yourself.

You're my type, so I'll let you go.

What about them?

They die.

Then you can die, too!

He can fight so fiercely just to fondle a chest?

Is this a joke?

How'd a little pupper like you kill my Batty?

Y'know, he and I shared a dream: killing and eating all of humanity.

A pipe dream, but a noble and romantic one!

And now this little yipping dog has ruined it!

You're cute enough that I regret it,

but you still need to die.

I'm not dying before I cop a feel.

That is ridiculous!

To think he was killed by someone with such a trashy dream!

Alas, poor Batty!

Such a foolish reason.

Everyone is serious about this except you.

It hurts! Ow, ow, ow, ow!

Everyone wants to trash talk my plans!

It's revenge this, protect my family that,

and saving a cat! Blah, blah, blah!

I guess your fancy dreams make you hot shit, huh?!

Then how about we have us a dream battle, then?!

If I murderize you,

that means your dream's weaker than fondling a tit!

Even your howls are cute!

I'll gobble you up!

Go ahead, if you can beat me in the dream battle!

Ow! It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!

Time to eat!

Kon.

Looks like she's the Leech Devil.

May I swallow?

Do it.

The Leech Devil's extermination is confirmed.

I want the rookies handling search and rescue, plus assisting with evac.

Yes, sir!

Okay...

Himeno, you've got seniority, so keep watch for more devils.

On it.

Have the cat sent to a veterinarian for a thorough checkup.

Yes, sir!

Okay!

Makima, how are the hunting dogs that we added to your squad performing?

There's one that seems promising,

and another that seems interesting.

Interesting?

A pup that I just recently picked up.

Your job is to raise these hounds and then put them to work.

Make sure not to grow attached.

I found your arm.

A blood infusion was all it needed to reattach.

You really are like a devil.

You seemed pretty friendly with that devil back there. I saw!

You really don't know a thing, huh?

Devil Hunters form contracts with devils in order to fight against them.

I've got a contract with the Fox Devil.

In exchange for some power, I offer a bit of my body as food.

It was some skin, this time.

Sounds painful.

Devils yearn for the death of humans.

The same goes for Fiends.

Power seems... cool, though.

The Blood Fiend tried to kill you, didn't she?

I don't know why, but you're trying to protect a devil again.

I dunno. Is that how it happened?

If I dig deeper into this, and report it to the higher-ups,

it'd mean the Blood fiend gets disposed of, and you for covering for her.

But there were no fatalities,

so if you're willing to accept one condition, I'll let what happened slide.

You need to do what I tell you to.

You're a dumbass and a brat, with no clue about right and wrong.

I've been doing this longer, so I'm pretty sure I have some grasp of social ethics.

All you need to do to protect this lifestyle is listen to me.

How about it? If you follow, I want an answer.

Sure. I'll keep it in mind.

You can relax.

I might not be after some big deal goal like you guys, and I might dream small,

but I'm as serious about it as you are. You can count on me!

Try and learn some manners in the meantime.

Yeah, I'll think about that, too.

You see? Am I not innocent?

Now would you kindly take these off?

Is this a good idea?

When this cutie-Fiend kills somebody,

it's gonna be your responsibility for letting her live.

We're Devil Hunters.

Whether they're devils or Fiends,

if they're handy, we should put them to work.

That concludes my report.

Then...

I'd like you to put up Denji and Power in your place, Hayakawa.

I think you'll make a good leash for the two of them.

Is there some reason you're sending me all these psychos, ma'am?

It's because I trust you more than anyone else.

Oh. Okay.

You two are going to be living here so I can keep an eye on you.

Denji's New Life

Food comes first, right?!

I got the best toast ever right here!

You had better clean that up.

Hell yeah, bathtime!

How long are you gonna be in there?!

Now for a dump and and some sleep!

Don't fall asleep on the toilet!

Power's New Life

Tis' mealtime!

Vegetables?! Vegetables are revolting!

Away!

Don't fling your vegetables!

Show some respect to the farmers who grew the veggies!

We take turns in the bath. You go first.

Bathe? I prefer to only occasionally bathe!

Get in there.

You reek.

I prefer to only occasionally flush my feces.

Flush it!

It stinks!

Pancakes, eh?

Hey!

Do devils not flush the damn toilet?!

Didn't eat her veggies, either.

You there.

Hey, Shit Devil! Your turds are stuck to the damn toilet and won't come off!

We had a deal, did we not? You may fondle my chest.

So, fondle!

Come now, what's the matter? Aren't you pleased?

Commence your fondling.

She's an angel!

You have earned three squeezes of my breast.

Three squeezes?

One for your rescue of Meowy.

A second for slaying the Bat.

And a third for protecting me from topknot.

I had no intention of actually letting you,

but your efforts have earned you these three squeezes.

Squeeze them gratefully.

It feels so good!

What the...

Breast pads!

A wondrous invention that makes your bosom look bigger.

Now! Two squeezes remain.

And now the final fondling!

There, done! All done!

What did you think? Was it not fantastic?

There's a lot of stuff I could say, but...

Huh? Is that it?

How lucky for you to grasp such splendorous things!

And now we are even!

Your future, with my aid, is sure to be bright!

That's it?

This is a formal apology for the damage to the buildings,

and this is for verifying the disposal of the devils' bodies.

Then there's this, from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport, and Tourism.

You'll need to stamp it here and here.

I hate making you do all this paperwork.

It's almost like killing the Bat Devil was a bad thing.

Is something bothering you, Denji?

Y'know, there's something I was chasing after, and I finally managed to get it.

But once I did, it wasn't as big of a deal as I thought.

Now I'm wondering, if I go after something else, and manage to get it,

am I just gonna think I was happier during the chase?

That's, like, total bullshit isn't it?

What exactly are you talking about, Denji?

I touched boobs for the first time, but it wasn't that great.

Denji...

When it comes to sex,

I believe that the better you understand the other person, the better it feels.

But it's hard to understand how someone else feels.

So, start with observing the hand carefully.

How long are their fingers?

Are their palms cold? Are they warm?

What's the shape of their ears?

Ever had your finger bitten?

B-Bit—?

Remember this.

So that even if you can't see,

you'll be able to tell it's me, from how hard I'm biting.

I'll remember!

I'd like to ask you to do something for me, Denji.

Can I?

Y-Yeah.

I want you to beat the Gun Devil.

Gun Devil?

It appeared in America 13 years ago, but nobody knows where it is now.

It's a very strong devil that all hunters want to kill.

But I happen to think that you can kill it.

Because you're not like any of the other Devil Hunters.

And if you're able to kill the Gun Devil,

I'll make any wish of yours come true.

You're saying if Denji kills the Gun Devil,

Ms. Makima's gonna make any wish of his come true?

So... like, I mean...

You're saying if Denji kills the Gun Devil,

Ms. Makima's gonna make any wish of his come true?!

Anything like...

Even... se—

I said anything, Denji.

Holy shit! Is that even allowed?!

It's only allowed because this devil is so strong and bad, mind you.

Sounds like bad news, I guess.

Thirteen years ago,

people were trying to profit off of guns as a counter-measure against devils.

It resulted in an increase in crime and conflict.

The news focused on it non-stop for a while,

and around the time that people were more afraid of gun violence than ever...

There was a major armed terrorist attack in America.

That was the day the Gun Devil appeared.

November 18th, at 10AM...

The Gun Devil touched down in Japan for 26 seconds, resulting in 57,912 deaths.

It was in America for 124 seconds, with 548,012 deaths.

Seven seconds in Canada, 8,481 deaths.

0.4 seconds in Hawaii, 7800 deaths.

Thirty-seven seconds in China, 316,931 dead.

Two hundred ten seconds in the USSR, 155,302 deaths.

Two seconds in Mexico, 6,088 deaths.

Fifteen seconds in India, 29,950 deaths.

It took roughly five minutes to kill 1.2 million people.

And then the Gun Devil vanished, with no sightings to this very day.

Fear of devils across the board increased as a result,

making them all stronger than ever before.

In an effort to weaken the Gun Devil even the slightest bit,

gun control got a lot more severe internationally.

Along with increased censorship of violent incidents and disasters.

I'm not sure I understand, but this thing sounds so strong it's hard to understand.

Do you think you can beat it, Denji?

I'd say if I bust out all the stops, it'll be a peace of cake!

In that case, we need to actually find the Gun Devil first.

How exactly are we gonna do that?

These are pieces of the Gun Devil that we've collected.

Got one.

So it really was snacking on a piece of the Gun.

Explains how such a wimpy devil got so strong.

The thing about these chunks of flesh...

See? They stick together.

Once they reach a certain size, they start to be attracted to the original body

in an effort to regenerate.

So, if we make this piece bigger...

We keep killing devils.

And eventually, we'll find him.

Aki...

Himeno.

This is your new partner.

I'm Aki. Nice to meet you.

He's rude, but I trained him to be of some use.

Try and get along.

Are you gonna be any help?

Well...

I think so.

You're gonna be my sixth partner.

The others all died.

They all died because they were useless.

Don't die on me, Aki.

Public Safety has received a request for devil extermination.

A devil has been spotted inside of Morino Hotel.

No confirmation on the status of the hotel's guests.

Several of the civilian devil hunters who initially went in have been found dead.

Activity from the pieces in our possession indicate

that it's likely this devil has consumed Gun Devil flesh.

Six agents from Public Safety Devil Extermination Special Division 4

are being dispatched.

It's hiding somewhere in this hotel.

And this is no ordinary devil.

The Gun Devil chunk is being drawn toward this location.

That means it's likely consumed some Gun Devil flesh.

Maybe it's the Gun Devil for real?

The more flesh, the stronger the attraction.

This reaction's not big enough.

How amusing! Give that thing to me!

I thought I told you two to work on your manners.

Who the hell's gonna suck up to you for no reason?

How foolish and conceited these humans be!

Mr. Hayakawa.

Sir.

Good.

Sweet!

Hayakawa, considering we're about to fight some devils...

Can we really trust these two to watch our backs?

One's a Fiend,

and the other is some punk! I'm not sure about this!

We can't let them watch our backs.

Which is why they'll be taking point.

If they run or try to switch sides, we kill them.

You're treating us like livestock!

You two don't get rights.

He's super pissed!

Must be from this morning.

Perhaps our prank went too far?

Nobody would call that a "prank!"

I could kill you!

Yikes! What happened?

Aki, you can't just be harsh all the time, y'know?

She's right!

The bat almost killed me, and now there's more work?

I want a reward!

Okay, I'll take one for the team.

Whoever kills this devil will win:

a kiss on the cheek from yours truly!

That's... you shouldn't do that!

A young woman who's not married shouldn't be so indecent!

But doesn't a reward help with motivation?

Right?

I'm not gonna sweat a kiss, either.

Oho?

Don't worry. I'm plenty motivated.

I got my sights set on someone for a first kiss already.

I'm gonna find all these meat chunks or whatever for her.

So, until the Gun Devil's dead, no smooching for me!

You're after the Gun Devil?

That's a hell of a thing to say in front of Aki.

Besides, I learned something real important.

Sex stuff feels better when it's two people who get each other.

I don't even know your name, so I ain't after your lips!

Then if you kill the devil, Denji...

I'll give you a kiss with tongue.

It's dangerous to run off solo!

Stop!

Damn, I love teasing boys!

Stop! Come on! I told you to stop!

Hey!

Himeno was nice enough to train me for the last six months!

If the alternative is letting some thug like you kiss her,

I'll take that kiss on the cheek!

I don't want some dude all over me! It's nasty! Die!

I'm after a way bigger goal than you, dude!

Oh man, what are we gonna do?

I yearn for blood.

Aki, what's your take on the four rookies?

Regardless of how strong or not I ever think someone is,

most either die or go private after a year.

That's not really an answer, y'know.

Don't die on me, Aki.

Aki... something's coming.

Got it!

It's floating?

The battle is joined!

Damnable devil! Did you see how it floated in fear of me?!

No, no, that's my power.

My Ghost caught it.

Ghost?

I've got a contract with the Ghost Devil.

I served up my right eye in exchange for being able to use its right hand.

It's invisible and strong. Pretty slick, right?

No strong reaction. This isn't the one.

I see... Guess we better keep heading up.

Is it wise to blather on about your powers?

Are you people not meant to hold my reins?

I've got a few tricks up my sleeve, so it's all good.

Truly?

So, what would you do if I said I was going to kill this one?

Put the weapon away.

If you misbehave, I can always choke you to death.

I'd prefer if we got along instead. It's easier.

I will devour you, in time!

You better not. I'm trying to get a kiss.

H-Huh? Did we just...

We were on our way from the eighth floor to the ninth, right?

Yeah.

But this...

Is the eighth floor, too.

Let's go through what we know.

It seems we're trapped on the eighth floor by a devil's power.

The clock in this room, and all the others, is stuck at 8:18!

It's possible the devil's power froze time here on the eighth floor.

And if that's the case, no one is coming.

We're all gonna die in here.

We're gonna starve to death.

Hang in there, Kobeni!

Didn't you become a Devil Hunter to send your brother to college?!

They basically forced me to do it.

My parents are set on my older brother going to college, since he's the gifted one,

so they made me get a job.

It was become a Devil Hunter or a sex worker!

I wanted to go to college, too!

But now I'm gonna die here!

That face!

Enough! Quit laughing!

Time's stopped, right?

That's awesome! Then we can sleep all we want!

How stupid are you?!

We might be trapped in here forever!

We might be, but we might not be, too.

Wake me when you figure it out.

This bed is freaking sweet. It'd be stupid not to sleep in it.

I owe the devil for this nap.

He's actually asleep.

Not gonna smoke, Aki?

It's bad for your bones, so no.

You should start. It's great for socializing.

I'm not looking to make friends.

Let me guess why you joined Public Safety.

You're out to kill the Gun Devil, right?

Everyone who signs up with a chip on their shoulder is the same.

Devil Hunters die young anyway. Might as well smoke.

I don't plan on dying any time soon.

I'll hold you to that.

It's a pain in the ass when your partner dies.

Give me a second, Aki.

Hey... what was that?

She was my old partner's girlfriend.

It happens a lot. Issues with the family and friends of dead partners.

They can't do anything to get back at the devils, so they take it out on me.

I just consider it something that comes with the territory.

What was that about?

I put some gum on the clothes of that girl who hit you.

You shouldn't just sit back and take that kind of treatment.

Don't worry about it.

I was pissed off, so I got some payback.

Serves her right.

She's gonna waltz around without realizing there's a wad of gum on her clothes.

There's something master told me, once...

Devils don't fear Devil Hunters who are strong or brave.

They fear the ones who have a screw loose.

Which is why I think you'll survive a long time in this job, Aki.

Was that an insult?

I'll eat your almond tofu if you don't want it.

Just one.

I'm not smoking. It's bad for your bones.

I get the feeling we're gonna be together for a while.

It'd really make me happy.

Just one, then.

This is the first and last cigarette I ever light up.

Now, then...

Denji! Denji! Rise and shine.

We find a way off the eighth floor yet?

Hate to break it to you, but not yet.

We found the power and electricity still work while you were asleep.

There was a little bit of food left behind from the guests who probably ran off.

I'll be honest, everyone's really worn out.

Aki's been searching for the devil nonstop.

I told him to take a break, but he won't listen.

Arai's gotten scared enough that he's locked himself in a room.

Kobeni freaked out and tried to drink from a toilet bowl, so I knocked her out.

And as for the Fiend...

Something wrong with Power?

Given there's nothing else to do, I've decided to win the Nobel Prize!

Once I've earned such glorious esteem, the humans will all kowtow to me!

And with the Nobel Prize as my foothold, I shall ascend to the prime minister's throne!

What better way to ensure human suffering?

My first act will be passing a 100% sales tax!

She's always like that.

Huh. Okay, then!

Well, this is my last cigarette.

I'm bored by how little this upsets you.

I can take it easy because Aki's working hard.

The nicotine also helps!

Gotta have a port in a storm, right?

Life is sweeter with a bit of dependence.

That's the same brand he smokes.

That's because Aki learned all about the flavor of cigarettes from yours truly!

Himeno, do you have any smokes left?

Sorry. Last one.

Let me have it, please.

If you insist.

Dude, that's kissing! No fair! It's an indirect kiss!

Shut up.

I've got bad news. Remember the devil we killed?

The one that I slew!

Well, he's a lot bigger now.

Humans. Hear me, humans.

I offer you a contract.

It talked?

A contract?

Feed me the human known as Denji.

Even his corpse will do. Let me eat him.

Do this and I'll let the rest of you Devil Hunters leave in peace.

Accept the contract!

Denji... let it eat you.

Man, that's obnoxious!

Aki, can't you follow this thing with the Fox Devil?

Kon.

Looks like the Fox Devil isn't coming.

We're cut off from the rest of the world.

Her body is in Kyoto, so that makes sense.

Let's see what my Ghost can do, then.

It hurts! It hurts!

It got even bigger!

It's pointless. This isn't my main body.

You won't find my heart there.

You're inside of my stomach...

And I have no weaknesses on this eighth floor.

There is no way to survive this place apart from accepting my offer.

You're probably not gonna let them go, even if I do die.

Actually, no.

When a devil uses the term "contract," it holds a strong sway over them.

If one side makes good on a deal, the other has to or else.

Whichever side breaks the contract ends up dying.

So, we would be able to leave by killing you, Denji.

We should kill him.

We can come up with another plan once he's dead and we're out of here.

We're all gonna end up starving in here otherwise!

Devil Hunters are legally allowed to make contracts with devils.

We should take the deal!

The devil wants Denji dead.

That means his death would benefit it.

Which is why we're not accepting.

I'm with him!

I say we kill him!

My Nobel Prize will remain forever out of reach if I'm unable to leave this place!

You must die for my Nobel.

Fiends can't make pacts with devils.

It wouldn't be obligated to let us leave, even if you killed him.

Look, we're not killing Denji.

We're Devil Hunters. We only kill devils.

Shall we wrestle to pass the time, then?!

You're just gonna try and kill me, so no.

I'm starving.

Aki...

Have you got any kind of plan for actually getting us out of here?

If we run out of options, I'll use the sword.

No, you won't.

If it can get us out of here, why not let him use the sword?

He shouldn't use it, even if we're out of options.

If it comes to that, sorry, but you'll have to die, Denji.

It's gone?!

It's gone... all the food that was left is gone! Why?!

You ate all of it, didn't you?

'Twas not me. This is Denji's doing.

That's such an obvious lie!

I get it now. I've figured it out.

We can't get out of here because of that Fiend's power!

That has to be it!

No, it doesn't!

Calm down, Kobeni! This is the Blood Fiend—

You're taking her side?! Even though we're Devil Hunters?!

You're on the devil's side, Arai!

You're a spy!

He's spycy.

No! I'm not siding with the devils.

I know you're a spy!

Was that a scream?

We need to move!

Kill Denji and give me his heart!

Give it to me!

I will grow as your fear grows, and with it, I will capture you!

Your deaths are a foregone conclusion!

Fear me more.

Be overcome by your impending death. Dread everything!

I will be the one to kill Chainsaw.

It will be me! The Eternity Devil!

Give me Denji's heart!

The floor's tilting!

Somebody, anybody, kill Denji! Please!

We're running out of time! Let's just feed him to the devil!

I'm using the sword. You okay with that, Himeno?

Himeno?!

Whoa, lady, what the hell?!

Aki can't use that sword without taking a lot of time off his life!

He's got too much to live for.

I'm sorry, Denji!

Forgive us!

Get off!

Die!

He might be a piece of shit that deserves being stabbed.

But he wants the Gun Devil dead.

And I can't... kill it by myself.

I need Devil Hunters with the guts to fight it. The more, the better.

So, even if it costs some of my own life, I'm not letting Denji die.

Power! You're the Blood Fiend, right?

Can you keep him from bleeding out?

I only have total control over my own blood. The blood of others is a challenge.

But I suppose I'd need a new cook if topknot died.

I suppose I have little choice but to try.

What do we do?

What do we do?!

A-Aki! What do we do?!

I-It's not my fault!

You! This is because of you!

If you just let it eat you, this would all be over!

Yeah, yeah, I get it! Guess I'm on the menu, then!

Oh, thank goodness.

I'm not gonna go down smooth, though.

So if I manage to kill this devil,

I still expect to get that kiss!

Have you any plan to win?

It's gonna hurt real bad, but I'll get my chainsaws out.

Ch-Chainsaws?

I dunno what this devil's deal is, but it's scared of my chainsaws.

That's why it didn't try to kill me and wanted you guys to do it instead.

And I remember it was crying about pain when it got attacked.

So I figure, if I tear it up until it can't take the pain, it'll wanna kill itself!

A very devilish idea!

I can't believe you did that for me.

Nobody asked you, asshole.

I'm through owing anybody anything, got it?

So once we're out of here, we're even!

I knew you were alive, Chainsaw!

Die!

Yeow!

All better!

This is pointless, Chainsaw—it hurts!

You won't find my heart in here—that hurts!

You can't kill me—the pain!

This bodes ill. Denji's losing blood ceaselessly.

When he's lost too much, those chainsaws will retract.

You are so much weaker now.

How far have you fallen, Chainsaw?!

My chainsaws went in?! Need more blood!

You've failed!

Die, Chainsaw!

Ow!

What are you—what is this?!

What?!

The blood might seriously taste like shit,

but watching you shriek in pain makes it sweet like strawberry jam!

The pain!

Stop it!

No—!

The hunters that devils fear...

Are the ones who have a couple of screws loose.

Maybe he can do it.

Die already!

Eureka, dude!

I cut you up, and you bleed! I drink that blood and heal!

Stop! Stop drinking my blood!

I'm a fucking perpetual motion machine!

That Nobel Prize is mine!

It hurts! Ow, ow! Stop it!

Make it stop!

Don't! Enough! It's too much!

I've never seen anyone crazier than him!

I slice you up! You bleed!

I drink your blood! I heal!

And I'm good to go!

I slice you! You bleed!

I drink blood and heal!

And I'm good to go!

I slice you, you bleed!

I drink blood, and heal!

And I'm good to go!

This is my weakness.

I'm so sorry. Please, kill me.

I can't take the pain anymore.

What, already?!

I was still having fun! It was like being in a pool!

I've never seen anyone crazier than him,

so maybe he can kill the Gun Devil!

The hunters that devils fear...

Are the ones who have a couple of screws loose.

Sahara had his head on straight.

So he died.

Same goes for Kinouchi, and Subaru, and Sasaki. All sane.

They were reasonable enough to fear attacks from a devil,

and that fear made the devils stronger.

You been working with Aki for a while now.

What do you think? Is his head on straight?

I wouldn't say that about anyone who's trying to kill the Gun.

And you're drinking too much again, master.

See, that's being sensible again.

Can't be unhinged without loosening those screws a bit, every day.

And if you're still visiting your partners' graves every month,

yours are still pretty tight.

I'm heading home. Aki's still a punk, so make sure to work him over.

I'll take it one step at a time.

Not good enough.

The kid's serious about collecting meat chunks, right?

He's gonna actually find the Gun Devil if he does.

No.

No, no...

No, no, no, no, no, no!

Aki, you wanna join the private sector with me?

I received a pretty generous offer!

We won't have to fight the stronger devils,

could go out for lunch, and see a movie on the way home.

Wouldn't that be a nice way of life?

I'll join you if you wanna go out for drinks.

But I have no intention of ever going private.

Then...

Give me a cigarette.

A welcoming party?

Yep. Division 4's never really met up like that before, right?

We ought to get to know each other better, and deal with our outstanding issues.

What issues?

Well, the the thing is, Kobeni and Arai are talking about quitting public safety.

The whole hotel thing seems to have traumatized them.

Not only are they afraid of the devils,

but they feel guilty about trying to kill Denji, too.

You tried to kill him, too.

I know, right?!

Kids these days! They're so sensitive.

Would it kill them to be a bit bolder?

You're just in this for drinks.

It wasn't much, but I found a chunk of its flesh.

And if we're doing this, it needs to be this week.

Why's that?

If we're having a drinking party, I want to invite Ms. Makima.

She's going on a business trip to Kyoto next week.

With so many devils targeting Denji, she's looking into getting reinforcements.

So the party needs to be this week.

Be honest with me. What do you think Denji is?

Ms. Makima seems so interested in him.

She used to travel all the time, but she's stuck to Tokyo lately,

and that's probably because of Denji.

Does she know his secret?

Wanna get her hammered and ask about it?

Cheers!

I got a little lost...

Kobe, Kobe! Come sit with me!

This is good. It's been six months since I last had anything to drink.

I only drink a bit at home, too.

This looks good!

The sashimi shall all be mine!

Ms. Makima says she'll be late.

I've never had such delicious food before.

You're sending a bunch of money home, right? Make sure to eat your fill!

Three parfaits and three shiratama dumpling trays.

Hands off, you scoundrel! The fried chicken is all mine!

So... about that kiss...

I'm too bashful to do it right now.

Let me drink a bit more first.

I'll make it a juicy one too, so will you forgive us for trying to kill you?

Dude, all is forgiven! Super forgiven!

This is a welcoming party for the rookies, so stand up and introduce yourselves!

Your name, age, and the devil you're contracted with!

Yessir!

Don't reveal your devil contract in public.

You shouldn't share that with anyone you don't trust.

Yessir!

Aw, it's fine! It's probably fine.

Excuse me, can I get a refill? And some edamame.

Coming up.

I wanna know hobbies, too. They tell you a lot about a person.

I'm Denji.

I'm 16, if I remember right.

My hobbies are... eating and sleeping.

Sixteen?! Yikes, that is young!

You didn't drink, did you?!

Just tea.

I'm Hirokazu Arai! Twenty-two years old!

I've got a contract with the Fox Devil!

My hobby is writing haiku!

You've got the same devil as Hayakaptain.

The Fox Devil is friendly toward humans,

so she's got a lot of contracts with Devil Hunters.

But only hotties get to call on the Fox's head!

As devils go, she is down bad.

I-I'm Kobeni Higashiyama, and I'm 20...

I've got a devil contract.. but it's a secret.

My hobby is eating tasty things.

Isn't her outfit cute?

It's a hand-me-down from my sister.

Kobeni has eight sisters.

Isn't that crazy?

Huh, Fushi, where's your rookie?

I'm sad to report that they were killed yesterday.

Rest in peace! They will be...

Mist? Pissed? Missed?

Already wasted, huh?

Do people really die that often?

Yeah, we're always dropping like flies.

No one who joined up at the same time as me is still alive.

Denji's not gonna die cuz he wants a smooch!

Himeno gets extremely friendly when she's drunk.

I'm pretty sure she's kissed everyone here, apart from the rookies.

There's no escaping her.

That's a guaranteed kiss!

Today's the day... of my first kiss!

What kiss?

Excuse me, I'd like a draft beer.

Coming up.

Have a seat, Ms. Makima.

Ms. Makima!

Are you kissing someone, Denji?

No, ma'am!

Aw, are we not gonna kiss, Denji?!

We are!

So, what's this about kisses?

I don't want Ms. Makima to see me kiss Himeno.

No smoochies?

But I want a kiss with tongue just as bad!

I've gotta try and change the subject!

Ms. Makima, y'know, I got one of them Gun Devil thingies!

I heard. That's very impressive, Denji.

We've never seen devils appearing with Gun Flesh at this pace before.

Given how the most recent one was targeting Denji,

something must be going on.

Do you know what Denji's deal is, ma'am?

I'll tell you if you can outdrink me.

Two more beers, please.

I want in on that! Make it three!

Horse sashimi! Fried chicken! And more horse sashimi!

Fried chicken!

Another draft beer over here, please. And if you could clear out the glasses?

I'm impressed, Power!

There aren't a lot of Fiends who can control their urge to kill.

A feat of my advanced IQ!

Is IQ part of it?

How high is yours, then?

One hundred?

Is 100 high? I think that was around my score, too.

Then it was 120.

If I remember right, Fushi's is high.

134, specifically.

He must be so proud of it if he actually remembers it!

If I recall, mine was was 500. Perhaps 1,000?

Oh my.

She's watching!

Ms. Makima's watching!

But... what is this?

Is that a tongue I feel? Feels good.

And soft! Really soft!

What the hell? Her tongue...

It's melting in my mouth.

That's... not... a tongue!

It's puke!

Well, that's traumatic!

Excuse me, can we get something to wipe this up?

Oh, this isn't good! Not good at all!

Denji will swallow anything remotely nutritious!

Check it out, Pochita! Those rats are chowing on some drunk's puke!

Eating puke! What a joke!

What kinda mammals are they?!

Unbelievable... Himeno has absolutely no restraint.

My method for throwing up works well, right?

I used to look after my mom when she came home drunk from work.

Not that it makes me as good a Devil Hunter as you.

I'm pretty jealous.

You're... jealous?

Dude, my first kiss tasted like barf!

And you're jealo—

I'll see Hayakawa and his household home.

Madoka, look after Himeno.

Ms. Makima paid that tab tonight, everyone, so show your gratitude.

Nothing tastes better than drinks someone else paid for.

Where's Denji?

I saw Himeno pick him up and walk off.

Where the hell am I?

Water... water...

Come to think of it, the puke girl gave me a barf kiss.

Dammit.

Water... water...

Huh... it's Den-Den-Denji!

What are you doing in my place?

Huh? Did I bring you here?

Huh?

I'm so dizzy... What the hell?

Y'know, I've noticed...

You're head over heels for Makima.

You could do better than that bitch!

You and Aki both! Ugh!

Fawning all over her!

Seriously!

Moove-on!

Wanna do it?

Do what?

Have sex.

Stick 'em up.

There you go, good boy.

Good boy!

Is this a good idea?

I was supposed to have my first kiss with Ms. Makima,

and now I'm doing this with the chick that puked over that.

Can I really let her have my first time?

Yes!

There we go...

Let's get these off, too.

Here we go... come on...

You've got something in your pocket, y'know.

A Chupa Chups?

Ew!

Are you okay, Denji?

Maybe you should get some fresh air.

Ms. Makima, my first kiss turned out really shitty.

Even if I kiss a bunch of girls from now on,

am I gonna remember the taste of puke every time?

Open your mouth.

I doubt you'll ever forget how that puke tasted.

But it's okay.

Because until the day you die, you're going to experience a lot of new things.

And you won't have time to think about vomit.

As for your first indirect kiss...

Looks like it tastes like a Cola-flavored Chupa Chups.

Sorry, Pochita. You probably wanted to score.

But I want the first time to be with Ms. Makima.

So, until I kill the Gun Devil...

Until then...

Looking down on people while you eat makes food taste better.

I was so drunk last night I blacked out.

I didn't take advantage of you, did I?

You think I want a piece of some pukey chick?

My first time's gonna be with Ms. Makima!

Well, that is a relief!

They toss you in jail for doing that kinda thing with minors, y'know.

You're an odd one, Denji.

Most people would feel too awkward to eat after something like that.

Who the hell turns down free food?

So, you like Ms. Makima too, right, Denji?

I super like her.

Would you still like her if her personality was shitty?

I'd like the shit out of her.

Okay! I'm gonna get the two of you together.

For real?!

For really real.

I propose we form a secret alliance.

I'm gonna help you get together with Ms. Makima,

so you help me get with Aki.

What do you like about him?

His face.

All right, you're on. Let's do this alliance thing.

So, starting today, we're not just coworkers,

but friends.

You should come over for breakfast every now and then.

Bring the Fiend and Aki.

I wonder if Ms. Makima would come, too.

When are we supposed to arrive in Kyoto?

About 30 minutes.

I should buy a lunch at the station.

You've got a lunch meeting at 1PM.

I'll make sure to be hungry again by then.

I hate meeting with the Kyoto bigwigs. They're so intimidating.

A meal is better when you get to relax.

Last night's drinks... were very good.

This is Team C. This is Team C.

We are go.

I wonder what that was.

Your ignorance astounds!

'Twas a taiko drum.

Maybe some kind of festival?

Did the two of you truly not mate last night?

Denji's more of a gentleman than you'd think.

I'm amazed you can eat the ramen at this joint. The taste don't bug you?

Who's that?

Tastes good to me.

Do not speak to me so casually!

Guess you can't tell good from bad when it comes to food.

You eat crap from an early age, you're bound to have bad taste when you're grown.

Hard to be happy with bad taste, too.

I am perfectly happy!

You guys wanna leave?

My granddad was the sweetest guy in the world.

Took me to fancy places with really good food.

He was a yakuza, but he was still a good guy.

Like a "necessary evil", y'know what I'm saying?

Only ever killed a handful of women and children.

Used to spoil me rotten with the money he made from dealing.

Everybody loved him. He was a real model of a Tokyoite.

Denji!

You loved him too, didn't you?

What the fuck do you want, dude?

You know him?

I hear the Gun Devil's after your heart.

Topknot!

Kon!

Aki Hayakawa.

You've certainly put something outrageous in my mouth this time.

Neither human nor devil—

Power.

Stop Himeno's bleeding.

A nail?

Now!

Three.

Now!

Two.

Now!

One.

What kinda creepy shit is that?

Curse, finish him!

Zero.

How is she?!

In need of a doctor, I'd say.

He had a gun.

It should be impossible for anyone in Japan but police or Devil Hunters to get them.

The Curse Devil.

I guess getting hit by that nail enough times means you die?

You've got some pretty good moves.

Where did you come from?

Are you working with him?

Know why you lost?

Underestimated him.

Better kill him this time, then.

He's still alive. Those Devil Hunter suits are pretty sturdy.

Finish him off.

Don't worry about me. Help Aki.

I can not. I couldn't even follow his movements.

Ghost!

No.

That girl is dreadful.

I'll give you everything I've got...

So give me everything you've got!

Aki can cry.

Most Devil Hunters see so many people around them die,

so often, their tears run dry.

But Aki cries so easily.

I used to think it was funny when he would cry in private,

after rookies he was looking after died.

Having someone care for you enough to cry like that must be nice!

Little help here?!

Don't die on me, Aki.

So that when I die...

You can cry for me.

Snake. Swallow it whole.

Leave.

The Fiend ran off.

We're after Chainsaw's heart. Don't bother with her.

This time I'm gonna split him in, too.

Don't damage the heart.

I dunno what the fuck's going on,

but it's easy enough to tell you two are bad guys.

I love bad guys, y'know!

Nobody gives me any shit when I carve 'em up!

I get to kill you a second time!

Yeow!

Do we shoot?

Aim for the arms or the heart.

Ow! Ow, ow, ow!

Huh?! When'd he even cut me?

Dammit!

Hey, bad guy!

He's one of your buddies, right?

What's your point?

I dare you to move a millimeter!

I'll turn your buddy-boy's head into ground beef!

Asshole.

Yeah, that's right! Sit your ass down!

Where'd he go?

Let's move him.

Get the car, now!

Hurry it up.

All of Chainsaw's people should be dead.

I guess Devil Hunters are still human.

Meaning they can't win against guns.

It says that in Tokyo,

Special Divisions 1 through 4 all came under assault!

Seriously?

Is Ms. Makima dead?

Then we've been wasting our time here?

Kurose. Tendo.

There was a shooting on the train.

The bodies are still there, so take care of them.

The lunch meeting is canceled.

Ms. Makima... you're covered in blood.

Were you hit?!

This isn't mine.

I wasn't shot.

Should we head to Tokyo as backup right away?

We won't make it in time if we do.

The enemy is probably after Denji. I'll do what I can from here.

Kurose, I need you to borrow 30 convicts

with life sentences or worse from the Ministry of Justice.

Got it.

Tendo, find the nearest temple with the highest altitude, and reserve it.

Also, I'd appreciate a clean change of clothes.

Right!

Why exactly are we blindfolded?

Ms. Makima reports directly to the Chief Cabinet Secretary.

Rank-and-file Hunters don't have clearance to know about her devil contracts.

Say the name "Shuzo Mishima."

Shuzo Mishima?

Hey, Mishima! Grab the other end!

Say the name "Takashi Inoue."

Takashi Inoue?

That bitch.

Wait!

Hey! Hey!

That's all that can be done from here.

I need to get back to Tokyo.

It's over.

A bullshit power like this is bound to be Makima.

Let's get out of here while we can.

Dammit, I thought they killed her!

You two... are with the shooters, aren't you?

Snake. Tail!

What is she, a monkey?!

You can die in the car!

I'm sorry I tried to kill you the other day.

Apologizing for attempted murder? What the heck?!

This is bad... I'm freaking out!

He protected me!

It's my fault!

I can't do this.

This job is going to drive me nuts!

I'll have to tell Himeno I'm quitting when I see her again.

I'm glad to see you alive, Madoka.

How much of the Special Divisions survived?

Special Divisions 1, 2, 3, and 4 all came under assault.

Just about everyone is dead, except for the non-humans.

An assault with guns, targeting the Special Divisions...

It seems like the Gun Devil must be involved.

I've got a message from up above.

Due to the personnel shortage, Divisions 1, 2, and 3 will be absorbed into 4.

And as of now, Public Safety Devil Extermination Special Division 4

will be under your command, Ms. Makima.

Also, this.

What is it?

My resignation.

You're quitting?

The Special Division seems like bad news at this point.

I figure the choice is between quitting or getting killed.

I see.

There's one last thing I'm curious about.

How much of what happened today did you anticipate, Ms. Makima?

I'm afraid I can't share Public Safety intel with private citizens.

Thank you for your service, Madoka.

I'll pass this along.

Uh, Ms. Makima...

You know we're not actually joining your Special Division, right?

We're just here to help with training, okay?

And in a week, we'll be heading right back to Kyoto.

That's a shame. The dining in Tokyo is to die for.

Relinquish the apple! I shall eat it!

Hell no! They're all mine! You ran, so no apples for you!

I did not run! I simply grew hungry and went home!

Quit lying! Scaredy-Fiend! Chicken!

You dare?!

Division 4...

Did anyone else survive?

That shrimp, Kobeni, and the glasses dude but I heard he quit.

Ms. Makima wants to talk to me and Powy, so we're gonna head out.

I only came to eat the fruit you've been gifted!

I'll leave you an apple.

See ya.

Curse. How much time do I have left?

Two years.

I come back for my manga and the dude's crying.

Can't blame him, though. A bunch of his work buddies are dead.

His partner, Himeno, bought it too.

Huh...

I haven't been crying at all, though?

When Pochita died, I was pretty damn sad.

But Himeno's dead...

And she's the first person who ever wanted to be my friend.

Am I shitty?

Would I cry if Power died?

Doubt it.

What if he died?

Probably not.

What if Ms. Makima died?

If she died...

I'd probably be pretty down for a while,

but after three days, I think I'd be back to enjoying stuff again.

I mean, three square meals a day and baths and a good sleep?

That's pretty awesome to me.

Maybe my heart's gone in more than one way.

Eh, why bother taking it so seriously?

This stuff is no fun, so thinking about it is bound to be a buzzkill.

Better go see Ms. Makima instead!

Pardon us.

Hey there.

Huh? Were you crying?

Who are you two?

Ms. Makima asked us to come in from Kyoto to help coach Special Division 4.

Coach?

The Fox Devil is mad at you for asking her to bite off too much.

Probably won't help you out ever again.

And that sword. How many more times can you use it?

Is this what you meant by coaching?

Glad to see you're quick to catch on.

We're here to provide job consultation for the human members of the special Division.

Rude as this might sound, don't you think this is a good time to hang it up?

If you're serious about staying on board,

you're gonna need to make certain sacrifices.

Sacrifices?

Yep, sacrifices.

If you stick around, you're going to need contracts with stronger devils

so that you can actually contribute to the Special Division's mission.

You can quit Public Safety and enjoy however long you've got left,

or stay on and go through real hell.

The devils that killed my family...

And my buddy are all still out there.

So why exactly would I quit?

All right, then.

Understood. Well, it's late today, so we'll head back for now.

Be back tomorrow.

Looks like our seniors in Kyoto knew what they were talking about.

"Everyone who works in the Special Division is crazy, so watch yourself."

You might wanna try and take an objective look at where you're standing.

Looks like you've got a lady here to visit you.

Well, pardon us.

It's become clear between the hotel incident and this attack

that the enemy is after Denji.

Which is why I want to strengthen Division 4, but most of its agents are dead.

You gonna be training us, Ms. Makima?

Unfortunately, I'm going to be too busy,

so I'm introducing you to the perfect teacher.

Your trainer...

That's him.

His name is—

Shut it.

Now, answer my questions.

How'd you feel about your comrades dying?

Okay, I guess?

I thought, "They've died!"

You want revenge?

Nah, that shit's depressing.

Verily!

Humans or devils: which side are you on?

Whichever one's gonna take care of me.

Whichever one is winning.

You two...

Get full points.

You're a rare breed, and that is fantastic.

I love it.

I am frightened.

Makima, you head on back. I'm starting with them right now.

I'll leave you to it, then.

Ms. Makima?!

I'm a Devil Hunter from Special Division 1.

I love it when people call me "teacher," so that's what you're gonna call me.

I also love...

booze, women, and killing devils.

Can't stand...

You two are biologically the same as us.

A broken neck means not being able to move.

What sets you apart...

I smell blood!

Is that a little blood, and you're right as rain again.

Dammit...

What the hell was that, man?!

Makima asked me to train you two up.

Not sure why, but the Gun Devil seems to be after your heart.

So, the fact that you're a scrub who gets his ass kicked a lot is a problem.

Why did you crush us like that?!

I've trained humans before, but devils are a new deal for me.

I was knocking back drinks last night while trying to figure it out. And then...

My boozy brain came up with a flash of insight.

I'm the best Devil Hunter there is.

Any devil that can beat me would be the strongest devil,

so, until you're strong enough to beat me...

I'll be hunting the two of you.

His brain is diseased!

Right?

Let's get back to it, then.

Drunk old bastard or not, they'll still come after us if we kill him.

The boy's immortal. The Fiend's mostly immortal.

No hesitation about bashing someone's head in

means you two have no rights here.

When I was little, I used to break my toys a lot, because I was too strong.

So I always wanted...

toys that could really take a beating.

With my help,

you two are gonna be a pair of serious badasses.

I'm heading home to get some sleep.

I'll be dropping by your place tomorrow.

Is your brain not sorted out yet?!

Heal! Heal, heal, heal damn you!

How many times did I die today?

Over twenty times.

Although I was usually unconscious every time you were dead, so I cannot be sure.

That old fool is too fearsome.

If this keeps up, it's gonna suck all the fun out of life.

I was working hard because I wanted to enjoy living,

so having to deal with this is total bullshit!

Shall we flee?

Public Safety's gonna come after us if we do,

and this time we'll get the for-real devil treatment.

That drunk asshole...

Can't believe he's treating us like toys.

It's seriously pissing me off!

I have it!

Have what?

How to defeat him!

As fierce as he might be, ultimately, his mind is addled by spirits!

We need only use our heads to overcome him!

I get you! I been thinking about how cool it'd be

if I could fight like one of those smart characters in a manga!

We shall slaughter him in the war of wits!

Damn, I'm feeling smarter already!

This is where the devils that Public Safety captures alive are kept.

Let's find you the right weapon.

It's none of my business, but that pretty lady from yesterday...

Was that your girlfriend?

Again with this? Mind your own business.

She was my partner's younger sister.

Oof... she let you have it, then?

No.

She gave me a letter.

A letter?

If nothing else, we could go private instead of staying in Public Safety. How do I get Aki to quit?

How do I get Aki to quit? I brought it up, but he just brushed it off.

The Future Devil is in this room.

There are two people in Public Safety that have contracts with it.

One had to give up half their lifespan. The other, both eyes

along with their sense of taste and smell.

If it likes you, you should get a bargain.

Well...

Go on.

The future rules! The future rules!

The future rules! The future rules!

I think they live around here...

The scent of this blood...

The old souse has arrived!

If he wants to ruin our lives, then he gets to die.

Let the highly cerebral warfare begin!

A blood weapon, huh? And aimed at the head.

So, it's an ambush. I guess the idea is they're hurting me this time.

Yee-ow...

That was your best effort so far.

I guess prey will use its head when cornered.

Keep at it.

You lost for two reasons this time.

Using so much blood to fight leaves Power anemic,

and you didn't see my attack coming, Denji.

This was a good try, though, so let's call it a day.

I'm going out for drinks.

Powy... he said we're done for today.

How lucky we are!

Beasts shouldn't trust anything a hunter says.

The future rules! The future rules!

Yeah, yeah!

You say "The future rules!" too!

I'm here to make a deal with you.

Tell me what you want from me.

You've got a real shitty attitude, man!

Whatever. Let's take a peek at your future!

What I see will help me decide on the trade.

Stick your head into my gut already!

How else am I supposed to see your future?

Here's how it's gonna work:

I'm gonna live inside your right eye. That way, I can lend you my power.

That look is asking, "Is that really all?"

Well, I wanna see your future in person, when it happens.

The reason being, your death is going to be the fucking worst!

Wanna know how it happens?

You're gonna—

Doesn't matter.

I'm not interested in how I die.

As long as I can kill my targets, the rest doesn't matter.

Now, get in my eye.

Okay.

You get full points for your moves on that one.

We don't need to do this every day from now on.

Let's cut back to once a week.

Aw, yeah...

We did it...

You've gotta make sure your brain keeps its cool even when you're feeling high.

Never forget your situation and the weapons available to you.

Tomorrow, we're gonna try live combat with an eye toward training.

What manner of combat?

We're all gonna grab the Snake Devil woman and Samurai Sword

that got Himeno and the others.

The op goes bad, Division 4 is done for.

Which means the two of you will be disposed of...

In a for-real battle with me.

If it comes to that, I'll show you some mercy and let you live, teach.

You made me stronger, after all.

I can kill more devils because of you!

And that means I'm on my way to hooking up with Ms. Makima!

We're gonna do a bit of sightseeing and then head back to Kyoto.

Aki...

You seriously think you can kill the Gun Devil?

You just lost to the folks who managed to kill around 20 Public Safety agents.

And you think you've got a shot against the freak

that took down millions of people all over the world?

If I'm being real, just looking at you kinda pisses me off.

Weak as you are, you go around with this hotshot goal,

like some kinda manga character.

It's so lame, it gives me goosebumps.

Literally. Can you see them?

Sure can't.

I really don't care what you have to say.

You can sit back and watch.

And if I lose and end up dead, go ahead and laugh.

I know...

that I'm not being realistic about what I can accomplish right now.

But...

I also know that I couldn't keep going, any other way.

I appreciate your help.

Hey, Aki!

You might piss me off, but I'm rooting for you.

So here's one last bit of advice:

"Everyone who works in the Special Division is crazy, so watch yourself!"

I appreciate you for taking this time out of your busy schedule.

I hope you'll continue to instruct Denji and Power.

I'm sick of them already.

Whenever the hunting dogs I train end up dead, I find myself drinking more.

I figured I wouldn't mind what happened to a pair of toys, but...

Must be old age. Now I'm even getting attached to them.

You mentioned you wanted to discuss something?

The assault that hit the Special Division.

Public Safety isn't exactly clueless.

You knew it was going to happen and didn't try to stop it, right?

I came under attack too, remember?

I don't care what fucked up shit you have cooking,

or how many of my hunting dogs you get killed.

You get a pass as long as you're serving mankind's interests.

But only in that case.

All I want is to save as many people as possible from devils.

If this operation is a success,

Division's 4 existence will actively become a part of the public record.

That'll give us more freedom,

and we'll be able to save even more people from devils.

You liar.

The boss has moved to a separate location along with the captain.

Nowhere in Japan is safe, as long as Makima's alive.

We're ready for them if they strike here. So, pipe down.

Shut up, bitch!

Sir...

Granddad would've never let us run.

Besides, that piece of shit Denji is in Division 4.

Next time, I'm gonna carve his heart out!

Plus, we've got a secret weapon down below.

What secret weapon?

A little parting gift from Granddad...

An army of zombies made up of deadbeats who couldn't pay their debts!

A human who gets bitten by a zombie becomes a zombie.

We'll use them to finish Division 4 off.

Extermination Division 2 and the cops will seal entrance to the first floor and basement.

Special Division 4 gets to handle the interior.

We kill as many Public Safety people as possible, and take Denji's heart.

If we use Snake after that's done, the two of us should make it out of here okay.

I'm gonna kill Denji.

No plan.

The entire Special Division goes in.

They haven't noticed us.

Don't make any noise.

I am the one called Power!

These, I can defeat! Have at thee!

After me, Denji!

I entrust my back to you!

How's that?!

What say you now?!

I have not fled! I am proud! I am beautiful!

Denji, bear witness!

And speak of this day!

For it is Power who is the greatest of all!

Come along quietly—

Snake. Spit it out.

Dammit!

Ghost. Kill him.

Looks like he's gotten a little better...

If you use my power,

you'll be able to peek a bit into the future with your right eye.

But that's all.

Choke him to death.

Just one, then.

This is the first and last cigarette I ever light up.

Yes!

Let me get that for you.

You're kind of awful, making someone who's underage smoke.

You're underage?!

Yeah...

Well, you obviously can't smoke, then!

Hand it over.

I'll hang onto this one for you, then.

Once you grow up and you're ready to develop an addiction,

I'll give it back.

The Ghost Devil doesn't have eyes, so it uses fear to see.

Himeno explained that to me.

Himeno... I'll be with you soon.

Snake—

Don't kill her.

Kobeni.

Why'd you stay with Public Safety?

Bonuses are coming up soon, so...

There you are, Sideburns Man.

Hold up a second, will you?!

Let's have a chat.

Depending on how you play this, we're willing to turn ourselves in.

We just want satisfaction, you get it?

Denji!

You killed their friends, and my granddad.

We just want you to atone for that.

I only killed their pals and your grandpa because they turned into zombies, dude.

Don't you fucking lie!

Dumbass little shits like you always try and lie!

Y'know, what? Fine.

Even if that's true...

Those zombies used to be people, too.

You seriously don't feel bad after killing them?

Sure don't.

Sawatari's put me through the wringer, too.

Apparently my heart was replaced with the Katana Devil.

But even then,

I still have trouble sleeping on the nights I accidentally kill zombies, man.

Looks like you're the only one whose heart's not human anymore.

If you've got any kind of conscience left...

Just let us kill you.

Nah.

Okay.

Then I'm gonna cut you to pieces!

Go ahead and try, dumbass!

Not again with that! That move is so cheap!

What?!

I thought you were gonna cut me to pieces!

Die!

Son of a bitch!

Son of a bitch!

Holy shit!

Bastard... die already!

Ow, ow, ow, ow!

Die already!

Son of a bitch!

You're dead, Denji!

Whoa there!

Due to a devil appearance in one of the cars,

the train will now come to an emergency stop.

The doors will open, so please evacuate in an orderly fashion.

Got you now!

Serves you right!

Devils!

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Seriously, can we ban that move?

You can't even fight anymore.

How about it, Denji?

Care to apologize for killing Granddad...

Before I kill you?

I can still fight!

I've still got a chainsaw on my head!

Dumbass!

Didn't Granddad teach you...

About when to know when you're beat?

Beg for his forgiveness!

Then I'll make this quick.

You went right after my head...

Thanks for that, dipshit!

Didn't the geezer teach you...

that beasts shouldn't trust anything a hunter says?!

These terrorist attacks were arranged by Akane Sawatari,

a Devil Hunter formerly from the private sector.

She had a contract with the Gun Devil and distributed guns to the yakuza.

In exchange, Sawatari was told to recover the Chainsaw Devil's heart.

And why exactly was Sawatari after the Chainsaw Devil's heart?

Before we were able to question her...

Suicide?

Triggered automatically by the terms of her contract with the Gun Devil, maybe.

We were able to recover 1.4 kilograms of Gun Devil flesh from the building.

After combining that with the five kilograms held by Public Safety...

The flesh chunk has finally begun to move towards the main body.

Then the time has come.

Understood.

Pizza! French fries! Sashimi rice!

It is all mine!

Damn, cola's good! That fizzy shit rules!

Can you two eat quietly for once?

Hayakaptain, where's the cake? We gotta have cake, right?

It's in the fridge. But finish what you've got, first.

You two are able to celebrate in this fashion due to my slaying of sideburns sword!

Shower me in gratitude!

I have only allowed you to take credit for his arrest!

Arrest... right.

You really are like me, huh?

Pulled that katana out of your arm, and the halves of your body stuck back together.

I'll kill you...

You're fucking dead!

Losers sure love to make noise, huh?

We've got a while until the cops show up to grab you.

But to be honest, I'm not really satisfied with that.

You killed Himeno.

That's one less hot lady in the world, thanks to your stupid ass.

But you don't seem to care, and you'll get to spend the rest of your life in jail.

How am I supposed to deal with that?

Not like you can do anything about it! You're just Public Safety's lapdog!

We're about to have us a contest!

This is Hayakawa from Division 4.

Target is restrained to the train tracks in front of the clock tower.

Requesting backup.

You wanna get in on this, too, Hayakawa?

It's gonna be the best contest ever!

What the hell are you talking about?

See, he shot at Himeno...

So I figure we get to take shots at him.

That's why we'll make it a contest.

We take turns giving him nut shots,

and whoever gets him to scream the loudest before the cops show up is the winner!

What are you, a psycho?

You in or what?

Our job is to catch him.

Not to torture him to make ourselves feel better.

It's not like Himeno would've wanted that.

That right?

So...

What do I get if I win?

His family jewels, of course!

Hey...

Himeno, can you hear this up in heaven?

We're playing...

A requiem for you.

CHAINSAW MAN THE STAGE

CHAINSAW MAN THE STAGE

This concludes our production.
