The way the gun teleported to my mouth LOL


Anyway this is levels of peak unreached before- the twist with the gun devil being just a political war asset, Makima being the control (or dominance) devil, the amazing art, design and framing of the gun devil showing up and the final fight between the gun fiend and the Chainsaw man. Cannot even explain or describe just how good the 'snowball' fight it and how much it shows how Denji has developed. Absolutely soul destroying way to end a characters arc my God, Fujimoto you're sick.

Pretty sure I deserve financial compensation for the emotional rollercoaster this book put me on. First the very sweet depiction of Denji, Power, and Aki's platonic/familial relationship which had me melting. Then... shit. Shittttt. Fujimoto really knows how to kill his darlings in the most gruesome and devastating ways.
