makima vs gun devil showdown, meanwhile denji.

This chapter is lit af. It's amazing how all of this happen in just 10 secs. And why Gun devil didn't kill everyone but just some of them? Some kind of russian roulette?

Wow.idk what to say but, this chapter has the same idea as the HxH chimera ant arc (when the hunters countdown starts), but this chapter is packaged in a completely different form.
I mean really, the list of deaths is even still continuing. really MAD

Are the chains on makima make her able to gain the benefit of the contract without having to make the contract with the devil itself?

Considering the details of the Gun Devil's ability activation sequence were so detailed I'm guessing they'll be relevant again later.

For those wondering why the April, July, and October births were spared: it's the homophones for the numbers in the months' names.

October (10th month) is the easiest one; the kanji for 10, 十, is read the same as the kanji for gun, 銃 (jyuu).

For April and July it's the same but a bit trickier. Both the kanji for 4 (四, shi) and 7 (七, shichi) have the syllable "shi" in them which came from the original Chinese reading and made them sound like the kanji for death, 死 (likewise in Chinese). This is considered a bad omen, especially if repeated as often as numbers tend to be, so the Japanese adopted alternate readings, "yon" for 四 and "nana" for 七, for the use with numbers. Except in the names of the months, which are still, respectively, "shigatsu" (四月) and "shichigatsu" (七月).

I don't think Aki is dead yet. It said antemortem which means before death. Plus Future Devil said Denji would kill him. My guess is Denji will be forced to kill him because he's under Makima's control.

One of the devils the devil hunter's had contracted with. Maybe the one Aki used with the nail sword, that takes away your life for a deadly attack.

Ayo Makima can use anyone's ability and contract at her will? Gun looks like it's gonna get fucked up. What's is Denji even gonna do?

Don't have much to comment on the on-goings but I will say the decision to literally list of the names killed by the Gun Devil throughout these massive panels has been a really great way of absolutely selling the on-going massacre.

Jesus that was insane, loved the way it counted down in seconds whilst telling us what happened. Also did we learn what was behind the door? I assumed it was Pochita in his actual devil form, but I don't remember if that was revealed to us.

So, since the Gun Devil is 'fragmented' and owned in part by the US, the Soviets, China, and some other smaller countries, I assume that works the same way as a devil contract, and anyone with a large enough chunk can summon the Gun Devil with enough sacrifices or offerings (in this instance, one year of the lifespans of all US citizens).

WTF what an insane chapter, both of these guys are just so strong.

The gun devil killed so many people in like 5 seconds, but that's not even mentioning his abilities. If you were born then you will die essentially LMAO.

I don’t think listing every single person who got killed by the gun devil by name was the way to go 😭 I wonder how they’d do that in the anime. Props to anyone who read all those names lmfao

I didn't bother with reading all the names of people who died, but my guts feeling were right when I found out the panel where Aki and Angel chained to Makima, Aki's name was on that list of casualties.

I wonder if there's a reason why the gun devil wouldn't just shoot everybody, but only people selected by a certain criteria. Like in the previous chapter, he shot men and children, but not women, and in this chapter he shot people born in the majority of months, but not the ones born for example in October or in April.

Also, it looks like Makima is going to sacrifice Aki after all 😭 (don't really care about the other ones lol)

Entonces Chainsaw Man se encuentra en 1997. En vez de aureola, debieron ponerle cuernos a Makima, pero eso seria un insulto para demonios como Power. ¿Así que controla con esa cadena los contratos de todos con los que ella hizo contrato?
