Chainsaw Man Chapter 177: Release Date, Where to Read, Expected Plot and More

While Chainsaw Man always had a knack for doing the wildest things ever, the recent chapters have taken this to a new level. The series has never shied away from exploring dark and intense themes, and the recent events have pushed the boundaries even further. After witnessing Nayuta’s traumatizing death, Denji goes berserk, losing himself in grief as he turns into his darker form, giving up control to Pochita.

What Has Been Going On?

Since then, Pochita has been on a rampage, killing numerous enemies and erasing fundamental concepts from existence. The first one to go was ears, and eventually, snow, mouths, and arms also vanished from the world. But this horrifying phenomenon finally comes to a halt in Chainsaw Man Chapter 176.

Recap of Chapter 176

Chainsaw Man Chapter 176, titled “Two Children,” sees Yoru, in a flashback, in a bathtub with her left arm still intact. As she reaches for a bar of soap, it transforms into a sword. She demonstrates this new weapon to Asa, who reacts with surprising nonchalance.

Yoru, in a moment of vulnerability, confesses that her newfound power, the ability to turn her apartment into a weapon, is not enough to defeat Chainsaw Man. She acknowledges the looming threat of the Pseudo-Chainsaw Men. This factor only serves to bolster the Chainsaw Devil’s power as the fear of war intensifies, leaving her unable to surpass him.

Asa suggests that Yoru consider giving up her fight against Chainsaw Man, arguing that defeating Denji wouldn’t bring her happiness, and that the world already remembers the horrors of war. Yoru clarifies that her battle isn’t solely about pride but because she wants to rescue her comrades, whom the Chainsaw Devil has swallowed.

Asa, intrigued by Yoru’s plan, asks if she has a method to accomplish her goal. With unshakable determination, Yoru confirms two possible ways but insists that using them now would counter her goal of saving her comrades. She remains firm in her mission to prove herself as the more terrifying Devil.

Returning to the present, Yoru contemplates if she would sacrifice her own children to achieve her ambitions and decides she would. She then extends her non-existent arms, summoning the Gun and Tank Devils from their containment cells, ordering them to “come to mother” as she was about to be killed.

With two new arms formed — a Gun Gauntlet on one side and a Tank Gauntlet on the other — Yoru mimics Makima’s “bang” gesture and blasts off one of Chainsaw Devil’s arms while also ripping a hole in his stomach. Chainsaw Man Chapter 176 ends as she releases the Mouth Devil.

What to expect from Chainsaw Man chapter 177

Chainsaw Man Chapter 176 marked the beginning of the actual fight between Yoru and Pochita. This clash, which had been foreshadowed for quite some time, is a significant setup for Part 2 of the manga, promising a thrilling continuation of the story.

In the recent chapter, Yoru solidified her resolve and severely injured the Hero of Hell by using the Gun and Tank Devils as her weapons. The long-awaited “War Devil vs. Chainsaw Man” fight will now finally occur in the manga.

Chainsaw Man Chapter 177 is poised to deliver the next chapter in the battle between War Devil Yoru and Chainsaw Devil Pochita in his Hero of Hell form. The confrontation is expected to be a dynamic exchange, with both opponents constantly testing each other’s capabilities, keeping the audience on the edge of their seats as they strategize to counter each other’s powers.

Chainsaw Man Chapter 177 will not only feature the intense battle between Yoru and Pochita but also the potential return of Fumiko Mifune’s ability to speak. With a mouth again, she may be able to proceed with authorizing the deal with the Aging Devil. The chapter might oscillate between these two plot points, underscoring the ongoing chaos and uncertainty that has gripped the world, keeping the audience engaged in the evolving narrative.

Chapter 176 proves that the War Devil has more in her arsenal than she’s revealed. For example, every weapon is her children and can be used at her discretion.
The revelation that the chainsaw itself is a weapon raises a intriguing question-could Yoru potentially exert influence over Pochita as well? If this speculation proves true, it promises to be one of the most shocking twists in the manga’s history, a prospect that leaves us on the edge of our seats.

Fans are losing their minds over Chainsaw Man Chapter 176 and how brilliantly this development is introduced in the story.
