Chainsaw Man Chapter 168 Recap
The 168th chapter of Chainsaw Man opened with War Devil Yoru, who appeared to have regained control of Asa’s body, staring at her hand in shock and disgust. She referred to it as “disgusting”before washing her hands in a nearby puddle. When Denji questioned her about the kiss, she responded with her previous reasoning, but this time in a loud and agitated manner, snapping Denji out of his trance.
After kissing him once more, she caught a glimpse of his lips and asked Denji if he likes her. To which she responded that she doesn’t, clarifying that it’s her “other”self who has feelings for him. As Yoru walked away, she mentioned feeling hungry and urged Denji to eat before they start fighting. Left alone in the alley, Denji was visibly bewildered and pained by the whole encounter.
Focus then turned to Yoru, who had been ambushed and assaulted by Asa Mitaka’s spirit as she exited the alley. Yoru clarified that she had only kissed him because she felt like they had done so before and wanted to be sure, while Asa scolded her for giving the impression that she was easy. Despite her tears, Yoru explained that she was too hungry to deal with this situation and stopped herself. The group then arrived at Sushishi, with Asa and Denji gaping in shock as they rode the train.
What to expect from the upcoming Chainsaw Man chapter 169 (speculative)
Despite being visibly affected by Yoru’s recent actions and behavior, Denji and Asa will undoubtedly face an uncomfortable meal in Chainsaw Man chapter 169. This discomfort will only intensify as their friends inquire about the events that unfolded in the alley, with Katana Man likely being the most tactless in his questioning.
Chapter 168 will also address Famine Devil Fami’s concern about Denji’s readiness to face War Devil Yoru. Her desire for him to directly confront Yoru aligns with her own intentions. Fami may even encourage Denji to fight by disclosing that she and the Chainsaw Man Church have been in possession of Nayuta all this time.
