As you can see below, Chainsaw Man posted a slew of images ahead of episode eight. The stills check in on our favorite hunters as Denji and Aki head on a new adventure. And of course, it is impossible to miss our new devil as Katana Man will go live this week at last.
The devil looks downright terrifying, and as you can imagine, he’ll be a rather interesting foe for Denji to fight. Katana Man is pretty much self-explanatory after all, and the way they look mirrors Chainsaw Man rather well. With blades sticking out of their faces, the two men redefine deadly, and they each have their own secret weapons hidden up their sleeves.

If you are not caught up with Chainsaw Man, then you should know episode eight will bring season one a step closer to its end. The anime has confirmed its first season will run a single cour, so there will be 12 episodes this run around. Right now, you can binge the show over Hulu and Crunchyroll as new episodes drop each Tuesday. And for those wanting more details on the series, you can read the official synopsis of Chainsaw Man below:
“Denji’s a poor young man who’ll do anything for money, even hunting down devils with his pet devil-dog Pochita. He’s a simple man with simple dreams, drowning under a mountain of debt. But his sad life gets turned upside down one day when he’s betrayed by someone he trusts. Now with the power of a devil inside him, Denji’s become a whole new man-Chainsaw Man!”
