My boy Denji can't find peace at all. 
Nayuta showing the control devil way to do things.... I was excited to see her but I didn't enjoy much. I'm curious how she'll develop to not become a b*tch.

Nayuta is a very funny character, I love it

I wonder why Yoshida asked Asa out
 I'm not a critic or anything like that but I like to give my opinion

Nayuta es tan posesiva como era Makima. Se nota que es el mismo demonio. Ahora habrá una cita entre Asa y Yoshida . ¿En que terminara? ¿Me pregunto que sentiría Yoru si supiera que se comporto como perro?

Good chapter and Nayuta is great. 

BUT I feel we were a TINY bit robbed from having any plot progression. I'm disappointed with the memory wipe and returning to the status quo. We are having fantastic character moments but I guess I have to stay patient for some plot progress. I was really looking forward to Denji and Asa/War Devil finding out about each other.

Yoru as a dog is fun hahaha
I love that Nayuta is just an immature child version of Makima
Yoshida as the new love interest?? I'm not so sure about that, but we'll see!

Well great chapter as always, I really like nayuta's character, she gives power vibes and that's what I liked about her most, her calling denji her property was hilariously 😂.

Damn, guess I'm caught up now. Have liked Yoshida's presence a lot, excited for more of him. Nayuta's pretty good so far. Ice cream everyday. Definitely feels like she takes from Denji, by extension having some Power aspects as well, fart chart, haha.
Overall, Part 2's been really good so far, big improvement in art, I've liked following Denji more cause of his development. This Part has been crazy sweet as well but interested in seeing how things turn out. Has reminded me of Parasyte where Part 1 reminded me a lot of Devilman. Of course, very much is its own thing, building off of what came earlier. I typically forum post on lots of stuff I watch or read but don't know if I'll bother here, is more fun discussing this guy's works with discussions over forum posts I feel. But yes, very good series, sucks to be caught up though, haha.

Nayuta ruined Denji's date! I am so disappointed. And Nayuta turned Asa into a dog!?! WHAT?? 😵 In just one snap, she erased Asa's memories and made her think that Denji stood her up on their date. Well, she's not wrong that Yoru (using Asa's body) is bad influence on Denji. But with this chapter entitled "Triangle", the Love Triangle could possibly be among Denji, Nayuta, and Asa (or Yoshida, Asa, and Denji).

Asa thought Denji forgot their date! Poor girl! And that wall of text is Asa's rationalization to herself that she doesn't need Denji. But she should admit to herself that she needs company. No one is an island --- not even her. She's lonely that Denji didn't come for her.

Now that her memories were erased, in comes Yoshida "looking for company". What does he want? Now I ship Asa and Yoshida! 😊♥️

I wanna see more Asa x Denji scenes. Sad to say, Fujimoto is scrapping those scenes early as he has other plans for Asa --- the mysterious but cool Yoshida! 😎😏

Is anyone else generally disappointed with Part 2? The pacing is so slow and every time you think something interesting is going to happen Fujimoto immediately shifts the plot. I was looking forward to seeing more interaction between denji Nayuta and asa but it looks like we're not getting that anytime soon. I get that that's the control devil's power, but its way too convenient of a way for the plot to completely change after one chapter. It feels like we've only gotten hints of plot for Part 2 at a time, but nothing to show for it even still. Compared to part 1 this is very slice of life, which is good if you're into that, but for me I can't say I'm a fan anymore. 

I think you should take a break and come back a year or something later when their are a huge chunk of chapters to catch up on. Part 2 still has a lot more ground work to do and will have such pacing for sometime more in my opinion . Part 1 was just following the standard shonen structure in the beginning. Fujimoto was able to pace it fast because it was just following tropes that shonen fans have been familiar with for years.

Part 2 on the other hand is trying to handle a lot more plot elements that Fujimoto has set up. It needs time to put all the elements in their place so that the story can move without any hiccups. Fujimoto had to introduce a new main character, build her up, introduce the other Horsemens, explain the current status of the world after part 1, reintroduce Denji, reintroduce Yoshida and establish his role in the story, establish Asa's relationship to Denji, establish Denji and Nayuta's relationship and so on. So far I think he has done a great job. In just 23 chapters we are already seeing the elements coming into place.

I think the next arc is going to be about establishing Asa and Yoshida's relationship. It has to be slow otherwise the character relations won't make sense and it would feel rushed. I like how part 2 is handling things at the moment.

That was solved easier and with a lot less blood shed than expected. Nayuta is funny. She feels like the daughter of Power and Denji with a dose of Makima's controlling ways sprinkle on top.

Lol Nayuta did turn Asa into her bitch - temporarily at least, lol.
Quite literally indeed. It was more Yoru though. If she ever finds out it's going to sting her ego.

If that's really the way they end their relationship that's pretty sad, for something that had a lot of potential with all that build up to be tossed aside. But that's Chainsaw Man for you there isn't happy just constantly getting screwed over.

Uh oh... what is Yoshida up to now I wonder? I feel like he's either gonna try and kill Asa or maybe he will reveal Denji's true identity to her so they (Denji and Asa) will continue to have to deal with each other, which in turn will suck Nayuta into the action as well.

Gotta say I'm pretty curious to see what will happen next. Unfortunately many of Part 2's intense cliffhangers only lead to comedic moments as of now so I hope something genuinely big will happen next chapter. Also great we'll get the next chapter next week already.

I see nothing but facts.
It's a completely different manga, and while I try to take it for what it is, it's a massive downgrade. And it's coming from someone who have read (and enjoyed) all of Fujimoto previous works... sorry, if sol works for Sayonara Eri and Look Back, it doesn't mean it will work for CSM.

im horribly scared for whatever fujimoto is cooking. the weird recurring events from part 1 is what first ticked me off that something strange is going on, but the bizarre sense of hopelessness and dread behind the cute sol moments is really noticeable, especially in this chapter. part 1 was obviously planned out a lot from the get go, and something tells me fujimoto is planning out something terribly depressing and horrifying for part 2

Ooooo, sometimes I hate the author for doing this, but for this character I don't care. I'd rather ship Denji with Bomb-Girl anyway. At least she showed she potentially cared for Denji and could be down to do anything with him

Neutral on Nayuta. Don't like or dislike her. Though she could smell something was up with Asa and was protecting Denji so she gets points for that

At first, I thought Nayuta was being an a-hole but then I realized that she must have smelled the War Devil so this must have been a defense mechanism. Sweet.
