Although Chainsaw Man half 2 was a sluggish burn saga, there at all times a way of foreboding surrounding it. Ever for the reason that Hearth Satan’s dramatic entrance, Denji has been put by means of the wringer, culminating within the devastating occasions of Chapter 170.
Nayuta, the one particular person Denji really cared for, was ripped away from him amidst the chaos instigated by Barem and his group.
And the surprising conclusion of the most recent chapter leaves her destiny hanging within the steadiness, with a really actual risk that she could also be useless.
The ultimate moments of Chapter 170 had been a brutal blow, not only for Denji, however for your complete Chainsaw Man fandom. Whereas Nayuta might have been a reincarnation of Makima, she was a beloved character in her personal proper, vastly completely different from her predecessor.
So, as Fujimoto dropped a giant shock for the readers, we attempt to perceive if Nayuta is admittedly useless.
Is Nayuta actually useless?
Primarily based on the occasions of Chainsaw Man chapter 170, plainly Nayuta actually is useless. She was in all probability killed by Barem within the aftermath of the Hearth Satan’s havoc.
That may clarify how her head ended up on the sushi conveyer belt!
Should you keep in mind appropriately, Nayuta and Denji had been separated again in chapter 153, when she created a gap for Denji to flee the mob who had been out for his blood. And a few chapters later, we see the identical mob on the verge of attacking a cornered Nayuta.
Since then, we by no means obtained any updates on what occurred to her. Nevertheless, we will glean from the most recent improvement that Nayuta certainly did fall prey to Barem, who was the prime instigator of the mob in opposition to Nayuta.
Usually, after such a cliffhanger, I’d usually hold hopes of the character returning, particularly when it was somebody as vital and beloved as Nayuta.
Nevertheless, realizing Fujimoto, he’s not baiting us right here with Nayuta’s head on the sushi conveyer belt. This is similar man who wrote Hearth Punch, thoughts you.
The explanation why Nayuta is gone for positive:
First off, in case your copium is dependent upon the truth that characters like Quanxi returned partially 2 after being chopped within the earlier instalment, then I’m unhappy to say that you simply couldn’t be extra incorrect.
Quanxi is a hybrid, and so they have been canonically established to be immortal within the manga. Devils however may be slain. Nayuta is the management satan, not a fiend or a hybrid.
And in contrast to Makima, she didn’t have any contract hack which might enable her supersede deadly accidents. Nor was she as sturdy as her predecessor.
This was seen throughout her temporary tussle in opposition to the mob. Not solely was the variety of folks she may management restricted to a few, she additionally was not in a position to management a hybrid like Barem. By way of energy, Nayuta was nowhere near Makima.
That means, if she is one head quick, then chances are high that she is properly past saving.
Nevertheless, the constructive right here is that if Nayuta actually is useless, then she’s going to reincarnate in hell – as is with each satan who’ve met their finish. It can solely add extra impetus for Denji to go discover her and possibly Energy from there.
One other potential trace that Fujimoto gave us about Nayuta’s standing got here in chapter 167. This chapter will famously be remembered for Asa jerking off Denji. Nevertheless, it was additionally the chapter which may have foreshadowed Nayuta’s dying.
Within the stated chapter, Yoru immediately will get a sense that she had kissed Denji beforehand.
I imply, they’d beforehand kissed again in chapter 119. Nevertheless, the rationale why Yoru and Asa by no means remembered it’s as a result of Nayuta altered their reminiscence.
So, if Yoru acquired her reminiscence again to an extent, it implies that she was now not beneath Nayuta’s affect. However then, breaking free from Nayuta’s management ought to solely be potential as soon as she dies.
And why do I say this? As a result of Fujimoto had hinted this a very long time in the past in Chainsaw Man half 2! In chapter 139, when Miri Sugo (self proclaimed Sword Man) tried to recruit Denji to the Chainsaw Man church – he talked about an attention-grabbing level – that Denji was the one who killed Makima and freed him.
Now, we all know that the weapons hybrids had been beneath the management of Makima. So, if Sugo was freed after Makima died, then the identical may be stated for Nayuta and Yoru.
The explanation why Yoru in all probability remembered her kiss with Denji was as a result of Nayuta had already died by then.
However…
There are additionally followers who refuse to consider that Nayuta is admittedly useless. As an example, a person on X (previously Twitter) identified that Nayuta’s decapitated head on the sushi conveyer belt had a small design change.
Nayuta has a mole beneath her left eye. Nevertheless, the Nayuta in chapter 170 didn’t appear to have this. And this has given plenty of followers hopes about their beloved character returning.
Nevertheless, it’s truthful to notice that the creator has typically made such small errors, particularly with Yoshida, who too sports activities a mole.
Fami’s response, or lack thereof, additionally caught the eye of many followers. Whereas some theorize that she orchestrated your complete state of affairs, others consider her nonchalant response suggests the severed head on the sushi conveyor belt might not truly belong to Nayuta.
And, if Nayuta had been to come back out of this ordeal unscathed, then I’m fairly excited about the place Fujimoto will take the story from that time.
Do you suppose Nayuta is admittedly useless after the occasions of CSM 170? Let me know your ideas within the feedback beneath!
