[[WMG: Kobeni's new job is at the soapland Katana Man wants to take Denji to.]]
* Just seems too appropriate, what with the series' sense of humor. And Kobeni's brother is with the group, which would lead to more hilarity.

Whilst this fiend has a rather ambiguous design, the most feminine thing about them is their attire and their behaviour, whilst their body has many masculine traits, such as their broad shoulders, visible adam's apple and masculine torso. Since we know Devils can be male and female and they tend to take over the host's personality should they become a fiend, it's highly possible that a female devil possessed a male body, with their flamboyant and feminine personality being a byproduct of this merge.

[[WMG: Public Safety's plan is to create their OWN army of Chainsaw Devils]]
Throughout the entirety of Part 2, Yoshida has been constantly pushing Denji to give up on being Chainsaw Man because "there are a lot of other people who can do what you do." In reality, this isn't true; Denji is the only person who has the ability to devour other Devils, and therefore is the only figure that can realistically keep the Death Devil at bay.
So what does Yoshida do as soon as Denji steps out of line too far? Start harvesting the organs of the Chainsaw Man hybrid. This way, he can build his own army of Chainsaw Devils without having to deal with Denji's unpredictability and reliance on emotions.
Whilst it does seem to be fairly contradictory for Public Safety to stand against the Chainsaw Man Church if they both plan to use different versions of the Chainsaw Devil, the difference is in the method. The Chainsaw Church is utilitarian in its approach and believes that whatever methods it takes are necessary to stop the greater threat. Public Safety, on the other hand, is deontological; they want to make sure that they can achieve a similar goal as long as their methods harm the least amount of total people, even if it means they have to mess with Denji in the process.

In the Book of Revelation, each of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse is described as riding a different-coloured horse; Conquest rides a white horse, War rides a red horse, Famine rides a black horse, and Death rides a pale green horse.

Each of three Horsemen characters introduced in Chainsaw Man have hair-colour matching the associated colour of the Horseman that follows them - Makima (Control/Conquest) has red hair, Yoru (War) has black hair, and according to Volume 14's cover, Fami (Famine) has pale green hair. To complete the pattern, the Death Devil will likely have hair the colour of Conquest's horse - white.

** Somewhat Jossed. He WAS trying to warn Denji of the consequences, but he himself helped deliver them by drugging him and giving his body to other members of public safety to experiment on.



*It's also possible that Nobana is presenting himself as male because his parents forced him to: we know that Kobeni was forced into working for Public Safety otherwise her parents would've forced her to become a prostitute, suggesting that her income is being siphoned off to help support her family. It's possible that the success of their brother - or a possible premature death - meant that they rushed to force another one of their children into their brother's shoes. However, due to a "men are meant to be breadwinners" mentality they pushed Nobana into dressing as a man to pass off as one.



I have some reason to believe that the Fire Devil only [[DragonWithAnAgenda "joined" Fami to gain more power]]. Due to how its power grows the more contracts it has, Fire would more than likely take advantage of the Chainsaw Man Church's 350,000+ members to boost it's strength. In addition, we don't know if it's actually loyal to Fami or if it sees her plan to "stop" Death as a useful way of spreading chaos on a massive scale.

*** Almost every argument stated above for Fami could be as true for Nayuta. We won't know until we actually encounter it (and possibly not even then, since this is so theoretical).

Basically, when the time comes for the big fight with Death, she'll bribe Denji into letting her proceed unopposed by offering him a better life through some means, be it just providing him a place with comforts like Makima or bringing back the Blood Devil or potentially even his other loved ones, in exchange for not opposing her. Here Fami and Public Safety's manipulations will [[HoistByTheirOwnPetard end up screwing them over]], as Denji will have no reason to fight for the people who have actively been making his life more miserable. She could similarly try to bribe Asa, as so far, Asa's attempts to do things ethically have consistently made her miserable, with Asa even lampshading this before Yoru possessed her, stating she'd wished she'd lived a little more selfishly.

Basically, in a similar vein to Daemon from ''WesternAnimation/{{Reboot}}'', she'll be a deeply kind-hearted person who's greatly saddened by all the suffering and misery that occurs in the world, and her means of solving is to kill every single human on the planet, which will logically result in the demise of every devil as well, that way ensuring [[MercyKill no one will ever have to suffer to from the trials and tribulations that come from being alive again]].

Continuing off the previous one, in the event that the Death Devil turns out to be not so bad personally, she'll still end up causing major damage simply by virtue of manifesting. We saw with the Falling Devil that her mere arrival on earth caused planet-wide gravitational fluctuations that led to mass destruction, and since Death should be considerably stronger than her, it could be that she be an example of a WalkingWasteland, where simply being in the same vicinity as her causes them to fall over dead, even if she doesn't mean to.
