It was an actual date. Weird.

That was surprisingly sweet… Although I doubt Power shares that sentiment.

……

Hmm?

Wait, why are there two chapters this week?

edit: Oh okay, chapter 38 was on Mangaplus last Sunday… which is weird because I was pretty sure it was 37…

New Chapter is amazing as always:

  • Shark is named Beam, and I love him already. He's so dumb.
  • Denji's "I HAVE A HEART" is kind of adorable, he's such an amazing idiot.
  • A CHALLENGER APPEARS. Denji impresses her by puking up a flower, and having a face like a dog.

Either Reze is a norman human, in which case she should streer clear, either she's a devilman… in which case she should steer clear too I guess. The former would be more interesting though.

Meawhile, Power is probably going through hell offscreen. sad

Gonna catch up with this manga soon ever since I took an hiatus thanks to the debacle with mangarock (A manga website that I usually used for reading mangas)

Honestly, I'm betting that she's an enemy trying to lure him in, she's gonna die a horrible death soon, or she's a new sort of weirdness. Can't have nice things.

Hmm, I wonder if the writer can subvert "new girl is in story just long enough for her death to give Denji manpain"?

I don't know if I'd really use that term. Denji's not really super attached or the rend-clothes-and-scream-at-sky type. Even the bit with going nuclear on Shadman's nuts was only partially about avenging Himeno and more, well, fuck that guy.

New chapter:

Looks, like an angel, but is still a devil, and Denji's new not girlfriend may be in trouble.

I might have to take back my comment on the manpain/fridging issue. Hope it's not the route we're taking, but it sure looks that way at present.

I mean, this manga's popularity in west seems to be just about it being unusual in terms of typical shonen characterizations tongue I don't think it has been since from start that good really, so I could see them just doing fridging again.

Yeah, no thanks. On top of being in bad taste (but good taste isn't exactly what defines this manga), it just seems a bit too obvious when they outright announce it like that. Like a variant of the Unspoken Plan Guarantee.

Hmm yeah, the death flags are so super heavy that if author actually goes through the fridging, I'm pretty sure this is genuinely on bad side of writing after wards since its not even too far from the last time tongue

Man, I was honestly waiting for Beam to just.....show up. And ruin everything.

I am on the fence concerning things, because it feels like the author is playing things way too obvious with Look! Look! Death Flag! and that makes me suspicious. But this series has been very difficult to predict thus far, I'm not even going to attempt to predict things right now.

I mean it wouldn't mean automatically that its good series if its fake out, just wouldn't confirm the other option [lol]

You don't create a character this good to off her right away. Come on. Hopefully Beam is still hanging around.

…Or maybe Reze is the gun devil, as others have theorized, but I would be pretty mixed on that.

So do you think the tankôbon version will have nipples? tongue

Huh, I guess Reze is Japanese-Russian, that can also command devils around... Interesting. Also, Makima has yellow eyes while Reze has green eyes. Cool.

I assure you, I'm a completely trustworthy person.

Not fridged! Mind you, in the event that she turned it around on the assassin I expected her to be a devil or devilman or hybrid, but not to just physically take him down and strangle him to death. That was pretty good.

I'm imagining a Mind Screw twist where Go Nagai gives this author permission to have the series take place in an alternate version of the original Devilman manga where the world didn't end and Chainsawman takes place in the same world.

..It could work, you know.
