Chainsaw Man Highlights Katana Man in Cool Cover Art

By Nick Valdez

Chainsaw Man's debut anime season is kicking its way through its final arc, and some cool new cover art is helping to highlight the final arc's big villain, Katana Man! Following Denji's defeat of the Eternity Devil, the Special Division 4 members found themselves in a much tougher kind of challenge than they ever expected as the anime saw them ambushed by a mysterious group. It's still unclear what this new group actually wants to accomplish from this attack, but leading the charge was a new fighter who has the same kind of transformation power as Denji.

Becoming a being that is not entirely a devil, but is far from a human much like Denji can do when he uses the power of the Chainsaw Devil, this new foe proved to be much stronger than Aki and the others could handle. Now it's just a matter of seeing more of what this Katana Man can do with his abilities, and the cover art from the next issue of Nylon Japan magazine overseas is hyping up the eventual confrontation between the two with some cool close ups. Check it out below:

Katana Man pops up in Episode 8 of Chainsaw Man, and with this new villain's debut come some major character deaths and even more action leading into the final episodes of the season overall. As Denji has just learned how to efficiently fight with his Chainsaw Devil abilities, this new opponent will be a proper challenge that he needs to overcome or everyone will quite literally die. Now's the perfect time to catch up with the anime's run too before it gets even more intense.

If you haven't checked out the series yet, Crunchyroll hypes Chainsaw Man as such, "Denji is a teenage boy living with a Chainsaw Devil named Pochita. Due to the debt his father left behind, he has been living a rock-bottom life while repaying his debt by harvesting devil corpses with Pochita. One day, Denji is betrayed and killed. As his consciousness fades, he makes a contract with Pochita and gets revived as 'Chainsaw Man' — a man with a devil's heart."
