2 hours 32 minutes

In this episode, we break down Chainsaw Man Episodes 7 and 8, the moment where the anime fully pulls the rug out from under viewers and proves no one is safe.

We dive deep into Himeno’s tragic sacrifice, the shocking ambush on Public Safety, and the chilling introduction of Katana Man, one of the most iconic antagonists in the series. From emotional gut punches to brutal action and unsettling themes, these episodes mark a major turning point for Chainsaw Man.

We also analyze:

Why Himeno’s death hits so hard

Makima’s terrifying rise in power

How Episode 8 redefines the tone of the series

The philosophical themes of sacrifice, control, and survival

Why Chainsaw Man refuses to follow traditional shonen rules

If you thought Chainsaw Man was wild before — this is where it truly becomes unforgettable.
