Chainsaw Man Anime Introduces Its Own Angel Devil
Chainsaw Man has introduced plenty of devils over the course of its first anime season so far, but a number of fans have been waiting for the introduction of one in particular. With Denji and his friends suffering major losses in the fight against the Katana Man, new devil hunters are needed to bolster Makima's forces. With new fiends coming in hot such as the Violence Devil, Spider Devil, and Shark Devil, the Angel Devil has also descended on the battlefield.
Considering the fact that all devils draw their strength from mankind's fear of their given identity, such as the Gun Devil being so strong due to humanity's fear of the handheld weapon, it might come as a surprise to see that there even is an Angel Devil in Tatsuki Fujimoto's series as angels aren't quite as feared in comparison to sharks, blood, and violence to name a few. Being introduced as a part of the new cadre to replace the heavy losses that Makima's team suffered as a result of Katana Man's assault, the Angel Devil was introduced, sporting large wings and a halo, while also seemingly sporting an aloof personality to boot.
Chainsaw Man's Angel
While the Angel Devil's powers have yet to be fully fleshed out in the anime adaptation, they were explored in the manga, though if you don't want to have them spoiled as the first season of Chainsaw Man draws to a close, you might want to steer clear of the following breakdown.
Besides having the ability to fly thanks to her wings, the Angel Devil can absorb the life force of those that she touches, transforming said life energy into a deadly weapon that becomes more powerful the more years that she takes. In the future of the anime, should it continue following the events of the manga, we'll see what tools of destruction the Angel Devil can spawn after she steals anywhere from five to one thousand years of life force.
Unfortunately for Aki, despite getting some serious backup via the Angel Devil, the Shark Devil, Spider Devil, and Violence Devil, it wasn't enough to help him in winning a fight against a familiar fiend, as the Ghost Devil returned on the opposing side of the aisle. Chainsaw Man has one more episode before the first season comes to an end and while a second season has yet to be confirmed, it seems a surefire bet that MAPPA will return to the world of Denji and his fellow devil hunters.
