Chainsaw Man – Full Color — Official VIZ Translation (EN) 《Manga》
Chainsaw Man (チェンソーマン, Chensō Man) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Tatsuki Fujimoto.
Broke young man + chainsaw demon = Chainsaw Man!
Denji harbors a chainsaw devil within him. The world is introduced to Chainsaw Man, but…?!
Denji was a small-time devil hunter just trying to survive in a harsh world. After being killed on a job, he is revived by his pet devil-dog Pochita and becomes something new and dangerous—Chainsaw Man!
Summary:
Denji harbors a chainsaw devil within him. The world is introduced to Chainsaw Man, but…?!
Synopsis:
Denji has a simple dream—to live a happy and peaceful life, spending time with a girl he likes. This is a far cry from reality, however, as Denji is forced by the yakuza into killing devils in order to pay off his crushing debts. Using his pet devil Pochita as a weapon, he is ready to do anything for a bit of cash.
Unfortunately, he has outlived his usefulness and is murdered by a devil in contract with the yakuza. However, in an unexpected turn of events, Pochita merges with Denji’s dead body and grants him the powers of a chainsaw devil. Now able to transform parts of his body into chainsaws, a revived Denji uses his new abilities to quickly and brutally dispatch his enemies. Catching the eye of the official devil hunters who arrive at the scene, he is offered work at the Public Safety Bureau as one of them. Now with the means to face even the toughest of enemies, Denji will stop at nothing to achieve his simple teenage dreams.
Chainsaw Man (Japanese: チェンソーマン, Hepburn: Chensō Man) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Tatsuki Fujimoto. Its first arc was serialized in Shueisha‘s shōnen manga magazine Weekly Shōnen Jump from December 2018 to December 2020; its second arc began serialization in Shueisha’s Shōnen Jump+ online magazine in July 2022. Its chapters have been collected in 14 tankōbon volumes as of April 2023.
Chainsaw Man follows the story of Denji, an impoverished young man who makes a contract that fuses his body with that of a dog-like devil named Pochita, granting him the ability to transform parts of his body into chainsaws. Denji eventually joins the Public Safety Devil Hunters, a government agency focused on fighting against devils whenever they become a threat to Japan. The second arc of the story focuses on Asa Mitaka, a high school student who enters into a contract with Yoru, the War Devil, who forces her to hunt down Chainsaw Man in order to reclaim the devils stolen from her.
In North America, the manga is licensed in English by Viz Media, for both print and digital release, and it is also published by Shueisha on the Manga Plus online platform. An anime television series adaptation produced by MAPPA was broadcast from October to December 2022.
By April 2023, the manga had over 24 million copies in circulation, making it one of the best-selling manga series. In 2021, it won the 66th Shogakukan Manga Award in the shōnen category and won the Harvey Awards in the Best Manga category in 2021 and 2022. Chainsaw Man has been overall well received by critics, who have commended its storytelling, characters, dark humor, and have particularly highlighted its violent scenes within the context of the story.

Hi! I noticed that there’s only one chapter per volume available. Why is that? Thanks.

It’s because we only had the previews last week and the full volumes just dropped yesterday. We need time to translate (we’re just ordinary fans doing this in our freetime, not paid or anything)

Waiting for volumes 9-11
JayCube26
Hi, will you use unofficial translation for volumes 9, 10 and 11? I don’t want to wait 6 months for them to be officially released
Drake
They dont need to use unofficial translation as Viz has already released translation for all the chapters on their SJ app
JayCube26
Ah, I see, I was wondering why they still haven’t made volumes 9, 10 and 11 and lack of official translation seemed like best possible explanation
admin
We’ll use the official translation. The reason for the delays are because these volumes take alot more time to edit than the previous ones
CSM_CHAD
Where the hell are the colored versions for volumes 9-11? It’s been days with no updates.
admin
It’ll come out soon but editing manga isn’t our job, just a side hobby so we won’t be too strict with our release schedule
Tan
