Chainsaw Man Cliffhanger Perfectly Outs Denji's Secret Identity
Chainsaw Man chapter 161 is live, and it outs Denji's alter ego to Asa at last.
Chainsaw Man has finally done it. The series has been on a roll since its second half went live, and now creator Tatsuki Fujimoto has upturned the world of Asa Mitaka. At last, she has learned the true identity of Chainsaw Man, and she discovered their tie to Denji in the best possible way.
The update comes from Chainsaw Man chapter 161 which went live this week. The update follows Asa and Fami as the two lead their group through the Tokyo Devil Detention Center. The group finds Chainsaw Man stuffed into a number of boxes as the hybrid was dissected by the public safety commission. Of course, the group want to defeat the devil on their own terms, so they have to put the hybrid together once more. And of course, Asa is made privy to the man's identity before long.
After all, Denji's head is in a box of its own. The rest of team figures out the identity issue before Asa comes in, and after she learns, the high schooler is left stunned by the reveal.
Now to be fair, Denji did try to tell Asa about his identity before. Long ago, the pair had a one-on-one conversation where Denji admitted he was the Chainsaw Man. Asa did not take him seriously, but as we all know, Denji was telling the truth. He is the genuine article, and Denji's tie to Chainsaw Man is about to make Asa's life all the more complicated.
