History Characters / ChainsawManDevilHunters

* DropTheHammer: They {{Dual Wield|ing}} claw hammers, both to drive nails and attack directly.

* DeclarationOfProtection: She reveals to Denji in Chapter 142 that she was witness to his battle with the [[spoiler:Gun Fiend]] and saw him transform back into a human and cry his eyes out, upon which she realized that he was just a kid. From then on, she decided that she would save him from the Chainsaw Man life.

** She ends up being one of the very few people to acknowledge that Denji is ultimately just a young boy overwhelmed by all that had been piled onto him, showing that there is genuinely a part of her that wants to protect him from harm. [[spoiler: Potentially subverted as of Chapter 154, as her willingness to completely abandon him and Nayuta, along with her utter lack of compassion for the death of their pets heavily implies she was just saying that to get on his good side.]]

* ComicBookFantasyCasting: He looks a lot like Creator/MadsMikkelsen, and considering what a cinephile Fujimoto is, it's likely the resemblance is intentional.

* CoDragons: [[spoiler:For the Control Devil along with Flamethrower Man.]]

* CoolSword: The most common weapon he creates with his ability is a long, single-edged blade with a ornate handle that's almost as tall as he is.

* FauxActionGirl: Fumiko's first appearance has her come off as dangerous and unhinged... only to then repeatedly show that she's an otherwise average Public Safety member who is ''completely'' in over her head working as Denji's bodyguard. [[spoiler:She's (understandably) unable to do anything against Barem's Chainsaw Man devils and needs to be bailed out by Quanxi. Then after Denji gets attacked by a paranoid Public Safety member, Quanxi needs to bail her out again while she, Denji, and Nayuta run away. Then after trying to stop Denji and Nayuta from returning to their apartment,[[note]]To Fumiko's credit, she turns out to be entirely correct here[[/note]] she gets attacked by an old lady mind-controlled by Nayuta and needs to be saved by Denji. Then after grabbing a squad of Public Safety members she opens fire on Barem, only to be blindsided by the Whip hybrid and taken hostage]].

* JerkAss: Chapter 154 firmly indicates her to be this, as she not only abandons Denji and Nayuta when they're at their lowest without even a hint or remorse or guilt, she also mocks Nayuta for considering her pets "family" and being sad over them dying in the fire, even though she had no reason to. Combined with her previous behavior of molesting and degrading Denji, along with letting him get beaten up, she's shown to be a thoroughly selfish and unpleasant woman.

* WartsAndAll: She acknowledges Denji's shortcomings compared to Chainsaw Man's reputation--which includes failing to save her parents--but concludes that he needs and deserves other people to support him. [[spoiler:Though given that she abandons him when things get too hot for her, it's entirely possible that she was making up that entire backstory to earn his trust]].

* BitchInSheepsClothing: Double Subverted, her introduction makes her out to be a violent, unhinged woman looking to use and exploit Denji, but quickly shifts away from this in favor her being TheDitz and genuinely caring for Denji, only for it to be revealed in CH 154, that her caring side is just an act, and that she really is a BitchInSheepsClothing, just that her bitchiness takes the form of selfish cowardice rather than unhinged mania. [[spoiler:CH 156 implies she's psychotic as well, as she's quite cheerful over Public Safety's plan to ''dismember'' Denji, her only request being that she take some of his hairs or nails for her "collection" before his body becomes state property.]]

* HateSink: Right from the start, she's shown to be fairly selfish and unpleasant, as she sexually assaults Denji and is fully willing to let him get beaten up rather than step down from her karaoke performance. While she does say she cares for Denji, her lack of willingness to actually step up for him tarnishes that. Furthermore, throughout the rest of the arc, she's shown to very much be TheLoad, continually needing to be saved by others, such as Quanxi and Denji (the very person she's supposed to be protecting). On top of that, Ch 154 shows her to be both a DirtyCoward and JerkAss, as she not only abandons Denji and Nayuta when they're at their lowest without even a hint or remorse or guilt, she also mocks Nayuta for considering her pets "family" and being sad over them dying in the fire, for no reason other than being cruel. Ch 156 seems to have firmly cemented her place here, as [[spoiler: not only is she downright blase and cheerful regarding Denji being imprisoned and dissected for the rest of his life, with her only concern being if she can get some of his hair or nails as souvenirs, her conversation with Yoshida all but outright confirms her whole DeclarationOfProtection to be a fabrication, as she outright refers to herself as a Chainsawman fan, rather than a "Denji fan" as she earlier claimed.]]

** She ends up being one of the very few people to acknowledge that Denji is ultimately just a young boy overwhelmed by all that had been piled onto him, showing that there is genuinely a part of her that wants to protect him from harm. [[spoiler: Potentialy subverted as of CH 154, as her willigness to completely abandon him and Nayuta, along with her utter lack of compassion for the death of their pets heavily implies she was just saying that to get on his good side.]]
* JerkAss: CH 154 firmly indicates her to be this, as she not only abandons Denji and Nayuta when they're at their lowest without even a hint or remorse or guilt, she also mocks Nayuta for considering her pets "family" and being sad over them dying in the fire, even though she had no reason to. Combined with her previous behavior of molesting and degrading Denji, along with letting him get beaten up, she's shown to be a thoroughly selfish and unpleasant woman.

* LackOfEmpathy: She is a cowardly woman who shows complete apathy towards Denji and Nayuta losing their pets, poking fun at the latter for calling them "family." Ironic since in an earlier chapter, she claimed to be sympathetic towards Denji's plight as Chainsaw Man but now it seems to be a convenient lie she made up. [[spoiler: It becomes even worse in Ch 156, as not only is she completely blase about Denji literally being dissected and surgically operated on by Public Safety after he's spent a week in a coma and later screaming for Nayuta, her only concern is whether she can get some of his hair or nails for her collection.]]

* RebuiltPedestal: While she hates him a bit for failing to save her parents and knows that Chainsaw Man's reputation is partially built on a humongous lie, Fumiko doesn't wish Denji any ill will, and understands that there's only so much some teenager can do to save the day even with Devil powers. [[spoiler: CH 154 throws a massive hole in this, as her utter lack of regard for him indicates that she either genuinely hates him, or that she just made the entire thing up.]]

* BaitAndSwitchCharacterIntro: Her introduction raises every conceivable red flag imaginable, from her grabbing Denji by the crotch after he asks her to leave him alone, to convincing Denji to debase himself for her amusement by promising to have sex with him afterwards. Denji assumes she's a HoneyTrap within seconds of meeting her and he seems to be validated when a mob attacks him while she keeps singing karaoke without a care in the world. Her second chapter ends with her apparently ready to fight Denji too, only for her third chapter to reveal she's actually a bodyguard assigned to him by Public Safety and she claims that she really does have a crush on him.

* BitchInSheepsClothing: Double Subverted, her introduction makes her out to be a violent, unhinged woman looking to use and exploit Denji, but quickly shifts away from this in favor her being TheDitz and genuinely caring for Denji, only for it to be revealed in CH 154, that her caring side is just an act, and that she really is a BitchInSheepsClothing, just that her bitchiness takes the form of selfish cowardice rather than unhinged mania.

* FailureToSaveMurder: When Denji says every woman who comes on to him hates him, Fumiko does admit she hates him a little because Chainsaw Man failed to save her parents from the Gun Fiend. But she quickly follows it up by saying after she saw Denji transformed back into a human and crying, she realized Chainsaw Man wasn't a superhero, just a teenager, and she became a fan of Denji as a person instead.

* LackOfEmpathy: She is a cowardly woman who shows complete apathy towards Denji and Nayuta losing their pets, poking fun at the latter for calling them "family." Ironic since in an earlier chapter, she claimed to be sympathetic towards Denji's plight as Chainsaw Man but now it seems to be a convenient lie she made up. [[spoiler: It becomes even worse in Ch 156, as not only is she completely blase about Denji literally being dissected and surgically operated on by Public Safety after he's spent a week in a coma and later screaming for Nayuta, her only concern is whether she can get some of his hair or nails for her collection.

* NotHisBlood: After [[spoiler:Samurai Sword's minions purge the Special Divisions]], Madoka appears uninjured, but has blood over his shirt. It's left to our imagination if it came from [[spoiler:the gunmen or his partner]].
* OffscreenMomentOfAwesome: [[spoiler:When the yakuza attack, Madoka and his partner . Somehow he survive, though he partner didn't.]]

* CouldntFindAPen: Well, [[JustifiedTrope it's not easy to use a pen]] [[spoiler:when you no longer have any arms. He uses his own blood to draw a ritual circle to summon the Stone Devil, and it actually succeeds, though unfortunately he dies before it can do much god.]]

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse: [[spoiler:She disappears after Denji decides he doesn't want to hide from Makima with her anymore. Her whereabouts and her activities following Makima's death are currently unknown.]]

* MauveShirt: [[spoiler:He is a very minor character in the scheme of the story, but he has a name, small moments of personality, and is one of very few characters to be alive by the end of Part 1.]]

* AmbiguousSituation: [[spoiler: Given her complete willingness to ditch Denji in spite of her declaration and the backstory she gave, it’s unclear if said backstory is true or something she made up to keep him in line.]]

* {{Foil}}: Comes across as one to Reze, another ManicPixieDreamGirl that entered Denji's life. Both have clear and genuine attraction to Denji and both expressed desire to keep him safe from being exploited into being Chainsaw Man. However, besides being on opposite sides (Reze being a spy from Russia and Fumiko from Public Safety) how they go about expressing their attraction ends up differentiating them as well. Reze's treatment of Denji is fully romantic and largely mundane, with only his best interests being prioritized throughout their dates. While a lot of it could be interpreted as her fulfilling her mission to get close to him, Reze's final thoughts [[spoiler:before being killed by Makima and Angel]] showed that she was InLoveWithTheMark. Meanwhile, Fumiko's behavior towards Denji comes across as very predatory and {{Yandere}}, outright molesting him when they meet and making him do suggestive actions on a Devil corpse. And while she expresses that her crush is genuine, it still should be noted that she's not above casually degrading him like sitting on him during a conversation. Not to mention her acknowledgment of him being a kid while she's supposedly 22 years old confirms that she is indeed lusting after an underage boy, downplaying any sympathy her sincere desire to protect him might bring. [[spoiler: And as of CH 154, the sincere part has been completely thrown out the window, as she has absolutely no problem abandoning him and Nayuta when they're at their lowest, and shows no sympathy or compassion for his plight, heavily implying she never had any real affection for him to begin with. Also, whereas Reze is a TragicVillain with highly sympathetic qualities, Fumiko is a HateSink with pretty much no sympathetic or redeeming qualities despite technically being one of the good guys.]]
* HateSink: She’s introduced sexually assaulting Denji and allows him to get attacked by men while she enjoyed karaoke before she’s properly introduced as his replacement bodyguard. As Denji’s bodyguard, while she initially seems sympathetic to Denji, proves to be TheLoad and when things get too hot for her, [[spoiler: she chooses to ditch protecting him and Nayuta, leaving with a remark [[KickTheDog that shows her utter indifference to their pets dying]].]] Also, a rare instance of a character being this while technically being on the side of the good guys.

* StalkerWithACrush: Although she won’t admit it, Denji calls her a stalker. Fumiko disagrees, insisting that she’s not his stalker instead that she’s his fan. [[spoiler:It turns out, however, that the "crush" part is at best completely surface-level, if not an outright fabrication. For all her talk of "saving" Denji, it's clear Fumiko really doesn't give a shit about him as an actual person as she doesn't hesitate to leave him for dead to save her own ass.]]

* StalkerWithACrush: Although she won’t admit it, Denji calls her a stalker. Fumiko disagrees, insisting that she’s not his stalker instead that she’s his fan.

* SheepInSheepsClothing: Fumiko's introduction makes her out to be a violent, unhinged BitchInSheepsClothing looking to use and exploit Denji, but this quickly turns out not to be the case. While she certainly has her [[TheDitz oddities]], she surprisingly ends up being one of the more emotionally stable characters in Part 2. Subverted, in that she's later shown to be a selfish coward, best seen when she not only abandons Denji and Nayuta, she's also casually dismissive about the deaths of their pets.
