Chainsaw Man Arcs

Chainsaw is one of the most popular manga series that is currently taking over the world with its amazing storyline. Packed with action, drama and dark humour, Chainsaw Man has garnered some serious attention from all the anime lovers throughout the world.

Written and illustrated by the famous Japanese manga artist, Tatsuki Fujimoto, Chainsaw Man will take us to a world that is filled with devils, and these devils are nothing but our fears. In the Chainsaw Man arcs, you will not just see Denji, our protagonist, fighting and killing devils, you see him fall apart and rise.

When I started reading this heart-wrenching manga series I felt like we all have some of Denji inside us, that can fight through the toughest of times with courage and determination. As these arcs keep unfolding the development of each character keeps getting better and better.

Now that we are waiting for what’s next in-store in the Chain Saw man arcs let’s rewind a bit and talk about the previous arcs.
