Chainsaw Man: The Dangers of Erasing Mouths

In chapter 175 of Chainsaw Man, the act of erasing mouths could potentially have significant consequences for the future. This is particularly true for the character’s development in the upcoming chapters, as Pochita has the ability to devour devils and erase their essence from existence, as demonstrated with the Mouth Devil.

In light of this, the concept of Chainsaw Man erasing mouths could have significant implications as it would prevent him from consuming other devils. This would logically result in him losing the powers he had taken in. As a result, this could potentially create a plot hole, unless author Tatsuki Fujimoto has already considered this possibility.

Please note that this article contains spoilers for the series.

Chainsaw Man’s Ability to Erase Mouths Could Halt His Devil-Consumption Rampage

Pochita’s ability to consume and eradicate devils has been established by Makima in the initial chapters of the series. According to author Tatsuki Fujimoto’s manga, the Chainsaw Devil has the power to erase significant events in human history, including the use of nuclear weapons. This further reinforces Pochita’s role in eliminating evil from the world.

In light of this, the latest installments of the manga showed Pochita, now transformed into his powerful Hero of Hell form, consuming the Mouth Devil, resulting in the loss of mouths for humans. This could potentially lead to a multitude of issues for humanity, with one major concern being the potential hindrance of the chainsaw creature’s ability to continue his destructive rampage.

It is possible that Pochita may lose his mouth, rendering him unable to continue with this journey. This is especially significant given Denji’s current state following Nayuta’s death. As the manga may be approaching its conclusion, it is possible that Fujimoto made this decision to increase the stakes and prevent an easy resolution for the main character in this challenging situation.

The recent chapters of Chainsaw Man have introduced the concept of Pochita erasing mouths, which has sparked a lot of interest due to the potential consequences it could have for humanity. As Pochita’s powers continue to grow and extend to erasing other concepts, it raises concerns about the potential upheaval it could cause in society. This brings into question whether Public Safety’s true intentions were to destabilize civilization all along.

Conversely, the conclusion of the latest chapter suggests that Yoru may be about to have a flashback, a development that most readers are eagerly anticipating. This is because the War Devil has been given less attention as the second half of the manga progresses, making it a prime opportunity to delve into her character and give her a chance to shine.

Final Thoughts

Undoubtedly, the removal of human mouths by Chainsaw Man in the manga has been a haunting sight and raises many inquiries. One of the most prominent ones being the potential hindrance for Pochita to devour more devils, although this remains open to interpretation.
