Chainsaw Man Fans Put Yoru on Fraud Watch After Chapter 173’s Events

In Chainsaw Man chapter 173, Yoshida was actively involved in the battle against Chainsaw Man and successfully managed to trap him, causing him to vomit the Ear Devil. This turn of events surprised many fans who had predicted Yoru to be the one to accomplish this, leading to speculations about Yoru’s abilities and her absence from the current chapter. Some fans have even expressed doubts about Yoru’s potential to defeat the Hero of Hell.

In chapter 173, it was revealed that the mishap from the Public Safety Department in chapter 172 was actually a carefully planned strategy. This ultimately resulted in Yoshida successfully causing the Hero of Hell to vomit out the devils he had consumed. Yoru had hinted at this plan during her introduction in chapter 98. Despite being near the Hero of Hell, she did not interfere, causing some fans to question her motives and label her as a possible imposter.

Chainsaw Man: Yoru on Fraud Watch Following Yoshida’s Triumph Over the Hero of Hell

Ever since the tease of him being stronger than Kishibe and almost on par with Quanxi without using his own devil in part 1, Yoshida has been a key figure in power-scaling discussions. In Chapter 173, it was revealed that he used his octopus tentacle to restrain the Hero of Hell and force him to regurgitate the Ear Devil, thus bringing the ears back into existence.

Despite Yoshida’s previous defeat against Yoru and her claims of making the Hero of Hell vomit, Yoru has not been able to take any action against the Black Chainsaw Man who is currently nearby. Meanwhile, Yoshida’s recent impressive accomplishment has caused many fans to question Yoru’s true significance and strength in the storyline.

Fan Reactions to Yoru’s Inactiveness

Some fans are suggesting that Yoru has been portrayed as the one who will cause the Hero of Hell to reject the devils. However, if her potential efforts fail to have any impact, she will be considered a fraud.

According to a few other fans, Yoshida’s ability to defeat the Hero of Hell indirectly suggests that he is stronger than Yoru. Another fan pointed out that while Yoshida struggled against Yoru, he was still able to trap the Hero of Hell, indicating that Yoru may be even more powerful than the Hero of Hell.

“Yoshida failed to trap Yoru in tentacles but succeeded in trapping Pochita. By transitive property, Yoru is stronger than Pochita.”One fan said.

“Imagine an octopus doing more then the devil of war lol,”another fan said.

One supporter pointed out that Yoru would struggle to overcome the fraud accusations linked to her, as the physical War Devil is not facing off against the Hero of Hell in battle. In contrast, Yoshida, a mere human, has achieved greater success against the Hero of Hell.

Some fans used this moment to remind others of Yoshida’s status as a “regular human.”They emphasized that someone who can hold their own against Quanxi in hand-to-hand combat without relying on devil powers cannot be considered a regular human.

“I’m sorry but Yoru is not beating the bum allegations 😭 How is this REGULAR A** DUDE Yoshida the one who’s active on the field and she’s just watching…”Another fan mentioned.

“Someone that can go hand to hand with Quanxi without using their devil contract is far from a regular dude lol,”one fan mentioned.

In chapter 173, the battle against the Hero of Hell takes on a new tone as the Public Safety Department may use the opportunity to experiment with the Hero’s powers. The release date for Chainsaw Man chapter 174 is August 13, 2024.
