| You have to feel for the city, assets getting destroyed left and right just because a boy is beyond determined to have a feel of touching breasts. He did succeed, killing the bat devil and saving that cat he got bribed from Power but hey we talking about titties, right? So as if things will just happen. We got a new devil joining the scene, but boy as if this man will let anything get in between him and titties. Mappa, like the last episode, didn't disappoint with the fight scenes. Aki’s Kon from the first trailer.. that was one sick panel animated to perfection. His squad’s here too, eyepatch girl Hibeno and the walking meme Kobeni. Haha some damn crazy things await us going forward. It’s officially a gang now, the trio of Denji, Power and Aki. But before that, Denji, my brother your time has come, press them to the boot. |
 |
| Woah Power's realization that warm blood can also exist was a segue from her history to the present in which she is holding her captive cat inside that bat-devil. So the bat-devil’s name is Batty and got a girlfriend too? Lol. She got dreams that are beautiful but impossible to achieve after that Denji killed him and her likewise. Denji desires to touch boobs from a mere state but he lacks proper education and personal experience in real-life situations that’s for sure. This episode talks a lot about dreams, it’s difficult to find a dream, dreams that are less worth than touching boobs, but even so, it’s difficult to achieve a dream, a dream that’s desirable for a long time, perhaps to live? to consistently get the fuck you want? Any of these dreams, regardless of their difficulties to achieve, is nothing impossible and can be done when one has a wil and motivationl to acquisition in knowledge of their dreams at the end of the day. Moreover, Aki’s “Kon” was pretty neat and pretty clean if anything else to say, I really do like the angle of the direction compared to the pre-animated one (Don’t remember if he did the “Kon” several times in the same setting thou). Nice to see Kobeni, Himeno, and Hirozaku making an appearance. Now that everything over, Denji went through some recovery and there’s a glimpse of Aki’s morning routine, very much ideal in any possible way. Oh god, inviting Power was a… bad idea, the chaos between her and Denji is getting quite hectic, Aki’s already like a babysitter at this point. And wow Denji’s touching Power’s boobs now? Cool. ED 4 centering Power lol not a fan of the song but I like the visuals. |
"......If I told you that I was a real witch, would you believe it?"  |
| Today was Yoshihara Cinema day and it ended up just like how he does his stuff. Got to see some backstory on Nyako and Power but Denji rescued her and Nyako. But, soon Denji had to fight against another devil but this time Aki was there to help with some stuff and we also saw the good girl, Kon? LOL. Didn't know she was a girl. Also, nice to see other characters in this episode. Kobeni, Himeno and others. The action was fricking amazing. I did notice some familiar cuts in the episode. Loved the whole cinematic feel of the episode. The Hayakawa family is finally here. Loved the Power ED. The Booba deal is gonna be next week. |
 |
| Power's past as a Blood Fiend, she lived quite the wild life with Meowy, only to see it captured by the Bat Devil, claiming a sacrifice from her very hands for an exchange. And this in turn, Denji managed to bring the Bat Devil down, and as promised, to cop a feel of Power's boobs. But this isn't the end of the Bat Devil, as his partner of the Leech Devil tore an arm of his as collateral. Unfortunately, without a complete body and lack of blood, Denji couldn't force the chainsaw out of him and has to fight with less than his usual strength. The action is just as faithful as the first trailer made it out to be: the dream battle between Denji and the Leech Devil, plus Aki's "Kon" with his contractual Fox Devil. And Aki's Public Safety Devil Hunter family is here: Himeno, Kobeni and Hirokazu. Denji got healed and recovered back to normal, though the stories of the chainsaw man vary between thankfulness and fear. But still, Aki wants to keep Denji and Power under control for the fact that they're exposed to the public and being frenemies to help out a favour. Even then, Aki tries his best to keep situations under wraps, for as much as he can since he reports to Makima. By the way, the anime-only added scenes of Aki spending his life at home are a nice addition, a way to show MAPPA's insane production that's a definitive attention to detail. But then, there's the addition to the house with Power and Meowy, and she's every bit as unrefined as she looks. But, Denji's dream might've come true as Power leads him to fondle her breasts, 3 squeezes. Denji's going in for the feels! What an angel. Power's exclusive ED, courtesy of Tooboe, it's everything about her. |

| Fight against Leech devil was pretty cool and Kon looks really cool. Himeno's also here. Denji, Aki and Power living together is quite amusing. Denji really wants to fondle breasts and looks like Power's gonna let him do it. Episode 4 ED: |

| Jesus Christ, Denji fought like a madman this episode. Props for the VA to making his character so entertaining to watch during the fight. Looks like he's amazed at his own power but grats to him on his victory. The bathroom scene with Power and Denji was comedy gold. That ED song was goofy, probably the most amusing one I've seen so far. |
 |
| Wow the fight against Leech Devil was great! The animation was better than Bat Demon's. Crazy fight! Also I wasn't expecting a female voice for the Fox Demon. That really surprised me. Mappa really trolled us with that cliffhanger! You can't end it here! |

| Damn the Aki slice of life moment was a nice addition |
| Oh look it's Kobeni's car's owner! Finally, the Hayakawa family together. |

| The pacing is a lot more slower than i expected, very similar to KnY's pacing. They really took their time to improve and slightly extend the source material with some anime original scenes which is a good sign to me. A very solid adaptation so far. |
 |
| Really liked the pacing of this episode a whole lot, there was a lot of time for scenes to breath and the overall feel of the episode was amazing. Cannot praise Studio Mappa enough for the beautiful animation and artwork as well, I was so into the episode that it makes me want next week to come already. ED was very fun, ttotally suits Power to a tee. |
 |
| Ok so in this episode we got a bunch of sakuga as well as a scene dedicated just to show Aki doing housework lol. And then the scene where Denji is finally about to fondle Power gets cut like a cliffhanger for the next episode. The ED was pretty crazy again. Also nice to see Himeno, overall great epiosde, it was just as good as the last one. |
 |
| Wonderful episode, as usual and expected from MAPPA. The fight was awsome loved Denji's screams, the VA is doing a wonderful job. For the most important part... WHY MAPPA? WHY ON THE FIRST DAY OF NNN? THAT'S EVIL. Jokes aside, looking forward to next episode. |
 |
| Nah bro this adaptation is legit Konbeni must be protected at all costs |
One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| First episode that absolutely matched the ridiculous hype, what a fucking director flex and sakuga fest. Aki going about his early morning was mindblowingly well animated, super immersive. |
| Hayakawa family formed :D |
🐐 |
| Great episode the action was super smooth! Also quite enjoyed the slower second more slice of life feeling half and just to see some more of Aki and how he lives. Power is now living with them which is definitely fun and Denji earned this 3 squeezes. That new ending did hit like a jumpscare and it was another great one. Also a shoutout to my favorite character Kobeni being on screen for about 3 seconds can't wait for more. |
| Bruh that cliffhanger though... Poor Aki, having to literally babysit those two chaotic characters. Well Denji is less chaotic than Power |
 |
| i remember aki's devil was so sick in manga now that i see it animated i can safely say that it's the best devil design imo. |
 |
| I think this was the most enjoyable episode so far. Great background shots and action, and we got to see Power and Aki in all their glory. Aki's gonna have his hands tied dealing with the troublesome kids that are Denji and Power in his house. The animation was quite top-notch this episode as well. ED was very good also, liked it a lot. |
| Holy shit, when I thought the last episode was the best they just outdid themselves once again. Outstanding animation! Voice acting from Denji here was also a major highlight. I also got the same cinematic vibe from the first episode in this, which is a huge positive. Well done MAPPA, well fucking done... |
 |
| How crazy denji was he was not giving up god thanks that hayakawa and his crew was coming. Hayakawa is going to be a nice character and he’s can summoned a fox devil. Finally denji can touch the angel power b***s. |
P O S I T I V E V I B E Sシ  |
| himeno and kobeni are finally here |
 |
| This dude Denji is literally cleaning power’s shit off the toilet and she comes in to let him grab her tits??? What the fuck is wrong with this author dawg |
 |
| Holy shit the animation for the Leech Devil fight was insane. The amount of effort they're putting into animating some of the most minor fights makes me excited to get to the important ones. Got to see a tease of some supporting characters like Kobeni and Himeno, and I liked the SoL scenes of Aki going about his day. Power already causing chaos after moving in lol and that cliffhanger, is Denji's dream finally going to come true 👀 |
| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. |
| Great episode. Aki's got quite the handful now. |
| yep this anime adaptation is serious in tone than the often funny manga there it is the revelation that Devil Hunters form contracts with Devils to fight other Devils and they offer some of their body parts to the Devil they have contract with next episode is when we see Denji squeeze the breast of Power eh |
| Pretty slow pacing but it is fine. We got to see Aki's Kon. Also, Denji was finally getting adjusted to his new life and now he has to live with Power too! |
 |
| The fight with the Leech Devil was surprisingly well done, though I wasn't expecting the episode to end like that. The part with Aki and his morning routine was oddly satisfying, from great sound effects to gorgeous visuals. Perhaps there is hope for this adaptation after all. |
| This show has not failed to disappoint me so far. The animation, the direction, music, etc.: everything has just been top notch so far. It is hard to think of an anime that has had more hype leading up to it (and I have not read the manga), but so far it is obviously one of the best of the year. Honestly, I might just be happy that the cat survived more than anything else. |
| the first half is so intense then we got slice of life moment, glad to see aki is starting to change but this poor guy is babysitting these two. |
 |
| Mappa flexing this episode. Animation at home was flawless. |
