idk what you're specifically confused about but here is a summary about some things going on in the chapter

the statue of liberty thing is left up to interpretation, but its definitely most likely just a part of the gun devil that yoru uses for an attack
the bullet travels from america to Japan, obliterating pochita and the surrounding area
the aging devil (introduced earlier) helps pochita regenerate by feeding him blood
public safety wants the aging devil to be eaten/erased by pochita, and the aging devil requests for the japanese government kill 10,000 children in order to make this happen
we see aging look through one of their mirror portals, where children are being herded by armed soldiers

I know that some people are have mixed feelings on this arc of Chainsaw Man but I really enjoy how Fujimoto is exploring these sick ideas

I've fucking hated this arc up until now, but ngl it is finally picking up & some of the concepts & panel were absolutely fire but everything else has been subpar

Aging can't dictate what Chainsaw man does once recovered. That's not how it works.

@JudgeRuthless Since Pochita is a devil as long as they make a contract I think Pochita should be bound to it.

I didn't think Pochita would get destroyed like that lol. Well, it doesn't matter because after eating the aging devil he'll come back stronger than ever before. The question is if he's really willing to kill 10k innocent children to do so. Also, I like Yoru finally being a real threat and Asa realizing she's in a terrible situation.

i’m interested to see where the story goes from here. sometimes i feel like fujimoto is coming up with where the story is going as he is writing it, but maybe that’s just me. i feel as though there’s characters and elements of the plot that have been sort of dismissed and i’d like to see some of the loose ends tied up. i wonder if we’ll see the death devil anytime soon. it’s painful to have to wait a week or two for the next chapter but i really liked the gun goddess’s character design and overall this weeks chapters was pretty chill in my opinion.

What more can I ask?

Cool fight scenes and Asa's cake
At first I thought it was gun devil, but then realised she just turned the whole statue into her weapon, crazy shit

I truly believe Fujimoto-sensei is a superior being. He constantly comes up with new amazing devil designs.

last pages :
oldness devil is a male or a female ? he/she uses the pronoun "boku" . and it is funny that oldness devil uses the pronoun of young boys .

- devil of oldness : ... chainsaw man , "eat" my lower half / have a "taste" of my cr0tch ...

- government guy : i will give you guys a few days , to prepare to kill many kids for the contract of oldness devil .
- we dont need a few days , we only need a few minutes to prepare to kill kids , lol .

The previous chapter makes more sense now. In light of that, imagine if Fujimoto specifically draws school children losing their lives.
