** While funny on its own, [[LostInTranslation the actual punchline doesn't carry over]]. In Japanese, the characters for devil (悪魔) and weapon (武器) are actually quite complex, which fits in line with Whip Woman's statement. However, the character for person (人) is comically simple by comparison.

!!Chapter 145
* As nightmarish as the events of the chapter are, with thousands of people transforming into faux-Chainsaw Men across Japan as part of Fami's plot to power up Chainsaw Man and the War Devil for a confrontation with the Death Devil, something has to be said of Katana Man's sheer venom upon being charged by a group of the fake Chainsaw Men, [[SayMyName angrily howling Chainsaw Man's name]] as he gets ready to fight just because of how [[EvilIsPetty badly he has it out for Denji]].

* We get an example of Fujimoto managing to be an TrollingCreator for ''an entirely different Manga''. The chapter introduces what appears to be the Hammer Devil working under public safety, a being that uses a combination of hammer and nails to non-lethally subdue the gun-wielding teenage followers of the chainsaw man church. Said character's weapon choice, androgynous character design and hairstyle make them almost a dead ringer for [[Characters/JujutsuKaisenTokyoPrefecturalJujutsuHighSchool Nobara Kugisaki]] from ''Manga/JujutsuKaisen''. Said devil's most prominent feature is the missing half of their face not [[HidingBehindYourBangs covered by their hair]], exposing their brain [[spoiler:and evoking the grievous facial injury Nobara received in her own manga that last left her on the verge of death, and [[UncertainDoom her status still unconfirmed]] even after 100 chapters later. Given Nobara's popularity and the anxiety of the fans hoping for her return, the similarities are almost certainly intentional, just to further twist the knife on Gege's behalf]].

* We finally get confirmation: the Kobeni-looking guy from the aquarium arc is indeed a Higashiyama, which only serves to explain a ''lot'' about his personality. Not only is he so incredibly meek and cowardly that he quite frankly makes Kobeni look brave, but he also can't seem to say the word "sex" in any way. That's not to mention that he has a bunch of utterly bizzare conspiracy theories about America (That Sugo seems to wholeheartedly believe).
