Chainsaw Man is known for its intense, action-packed plot, and what makes it unique is the storytelling by Fujimoto, particularly with the introduction of Reze.

This character brings romance and sadness to the story. In the manga, Reze and Denji have a genuine romantic relationship, but there’s a twist – she’s a trained agent on a mission to capture Pochita. What seems like a dangerous mission turns into a real and melancholic romance.
