Recap of Chainsaw Man Chapter 181

Chapter 181 of Chainsaw Man opened with Asa Mitaka navigating through the Aging Devil’s forest while attempting to maintain her composure. She interpreted her circumstances as akin to her confrontation with the Eternity Devil in the aquarium. However, War Devil Yoru made her presence known, revealing that neither her powers nor those borrowed from Devils were effective in the Aging Devil’s world, leading her to express her frustration at being overpowered.

In a frustrated outburst, Yoru struck a tree, only for the tree to moan in pain, prompting a human face to emerge and declare the hit hurt. This shocking revelation caused Asa to panic and instinctively return control of her body, leading her to run back towards Denji. After stumbling upon him, she encountered the Devil Hunter from chapter 180, who correctly deduced that she encountered a tree person and explained the dire fate of those trapped in this realm.

Those who have lingered for a thousand years eventually merge with the trees, remaining in that form until they decompose entirely. Following this transformation, they can reunite with their actual bodies once their spirits are reclaimed by nature. As Yoru regained control, she lashed out at Denji, blaming him for their predicament, which caused him to break down in tears. The chapter closed on a poignant note, with Yoru expressing her sorrow by kissing Denji as he wept.

Anticipations for Chainsaw Man Chapter 182 (Speculative)

In light of the dramatic conclusion of chapter 181, it is plausible that Chainsaw Man chapter 182 will delve into the aftermath with Denji and Yoru/Asa discussing the newly unfolded chaos. Expect Denji to insist on clarity from Yoru, contrasting with his previous passivity in chapter 168, setting the stage for a potentially explosive encounter given their vulnerable mental states.

We may also see emphasis on other characters trapped in this world that haven’t yet transformed into trees, particularly those whose minds have deteriorated, as hinted by the unnamed Devil Hunter. Denji and Asa/Yoru’s paths may intertwine with these individuals as they search for a way out, whether collaboratively or individually post-conflict.
