The Reawakening of Denji: A Recap of Chainsaw Man Chapter 163
News of the world
The opening of Chainsaw Man chapter 163 centers on an individual engrossed in watching television, later identified as Haruka Iseumi. The initial channel covers various rumors about celebrities, while the following one delves into allegations of the Japanese government’s misuse of funds from the Devil Damages Reconstruction Tax to acquire cooperative Devils.
Despite this, Haruka quickly moves on and lands on a talk show where the topic of discussion is whether or not kissing and c*itus should be considered as forms of adultery. A woman on the show shares her perspective, stating that she feels like her life has drastically changed compared to last year. She questions if she is the only one who struggles to sleep at night due to overwhelming thoughts of suicide.
In chapter 163 of Chainsaw Man, Haruka relates to the woman’s story as she shares that she has not left her house since “it”occurred. The woman explains that her mother no longer trusts anyone and has started believing in wild conspiracy theories. The girl confesses that she also struggles to differentiate between reality and falsehoods.
The girl explains that she constantly questions who should be held accountable for the situation, while Haruka anxiously watches with a worried look on his face. She goes on to mention that when she found out she would be appearing on television today, she realized the individual responsible for the issue would also be watching. She concludes by stating that she has only one thing to say, causing Haruka to break out in a nervous sweat.
Chainsaw Man chapter 163 continues with her urging someone named “Koma Komagawa” to never give up their role as an idol. The host compliments the fan’s unwavering dedication, stating that the entire Japanese community is still processing the surprising announcement of the marriage between idol/reporter Koma Komagawa and her secret lover.
The host proceeds to introduce a guest photographer who delves into the alleged photo of Komagawa’s infidelity and breaks down how it was edited. The program ultimately reveals that the tabloid behind the image fabricated both the infidelity and home-wrecker accusations against Komagawa, further exposing a “deep-rooted conspiracy.”
Chainsaw Man Chapter 163: See No Evil
Chainsaw Man chapter 163 reveals Nobana Higashiyama sitting next to Haruka, expressing his excitement over the news about Komagawa, whom he is a fan of. Despite the ongoing Fakesaw Men transformations and multiple wars, Nobana is relieved to see a break from the chaos as he comments on the media’s focus on a celebrity cheating scandal. Ironically, Haruka overlooks a major government financial scandal that is also being reported on.
Despite Nobana’s attempt to justify himself, Haruka insists that he is not being sarcastic. Haruka explains that the lack of media coverage on their actions makes him feel as if he is dreaming. Asa interjects, mentioning that she had a brief moment of fame but is now forgotten by everyone. She adds that losing her arm also makes her doubt the reality of the situation. However, Haruka points out that Asa is overlooking the bigger picture.
In chapter 163 of Chainsaw Man, she chooses to disregard him and instead remarks on the surreal nature of Denji being Chainsaw Man. We soon discover that Haruka, Nobana, Asa, and Nail Fiend are all present in Denji’s bedroom, where he lies asleep with Nail by his side. Nail admires Denji’s peaceful appearance and struggles to believe that he is the infamous Chainsaw Man feared by all Devils.
Asa attempts to persuade Nail to urge Katana to hurry up in the bathroom, but Nail suggests complaining to Famine Devil Fami since they are in her hideout. Asa notices that Fami is eating pasta with her hands like a child, with other food set aside on the table. Asa wonders if Fami’s slim figure is natural. Suddenly, Denji wakes up and immediately asks about Asa’s missing arm, before inquiring about their current location.
Chainsaw Man chapter 163 continues with the others informing Fami that he has regained consciousness. Meanwhile, Denji repeats his question to Asa about the fate of her arm. She reveals that his comrade, Yoshida, was the one who cut it off. Denji, understanding her implication, inquires about Yoshida’s motives. However, Asa admits she is unsure, prompting Denji to question if he is perhaps in a dream.
Suddenly, Katana Man emerges and delivers a cheap shot to Denji as payback for their previous encounter. He then orders Denji to transform and challenges him to another fight, while Denji, in agony, reassures himself that this is not a mere dream. Asa and Haruka intervene, reminding Katana of their agreement and urging him to treat Chainsaw Man with respect.
Despite this, in Chainsaw Man chapter 163, War Devil Yoru is shown taking over Asa and her body, and even delivering a cheap shot to Denji before getting close to him. She states that she has no use for his human form and demands that he snaps out of it. The chapter concludes with Denji in agony as Nobana remarks on how unsafe the current situation is, prompting Haruka to question their next move.
Chainsaw Man Chapter 163: In Summation
Despite fans’ anticipation for a resolution to the ambiguous status of Quanxi in this issue, chapter 163 remains thrilling and captivating. The reappearance of Denji and the character growth centered on Haruka and partially on Nobana in the first half of the chapter contribute greatly to this excitement.
Chapter 163 of Chainsaw Man also hints at an exciting future for the series, as Fami’s grand plan is expected to be unveiled now that Denji has fully regained his powers. Fans are eagerly anticipating learning more about Quanxi’s fate and if their group will gain any new allies before their next battle.
