Anime & Manga · Chainsaw Man
Denji
A debt-indentured teenager fused with a chainsaw devil, whose motivations stay deliberately small against apocalyptic stakes.
Powers
The feat ledger
Transforms into the Chainsaw Devil by pulling the cord in his chest
Recovers from lethal injury by consuming blood
Dies and returns as a devil-human hybrid, which is the series' opening event
Chainsaws emerge from his arms and head, not from any weapon he carries
Blood loss is what limits him, so the healing has a fuel cost
The Chainsaw Devil erases any devil it kills from human memory entirely
Fights devils many times his size and wins by aggression rather than technique
Regrows a destroyed body given enough blood
