What's good about Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc?
End of Season 1
With careful investment from MAPPA, season 1 of Chainsaw Man left a strong impression. In 12 episodes, the audience followed Denji's fierce journey, faithfully adapted from the first 38 chapters of the manga, although there were still some details omitted. However, this is still considered a successful anime season in both image and emotion.
The final episode ends with Denji's victory over Katana Man, and Aki also fulfills his promise to Himeno. But things don't end there. In a strange dream, Denji approaches the old door and hears Pochita whisper:
"Denji, never open this door."
Soon after, a mysterious girl appears, who is Reze, the character who will open a new emotional and dangerous chapter in the sequel to Chainsaw Man .

What's in Season 2?
The upcoming content of Chainsaw Man is quite thick, so it is very likely that MAPPA will divide it into part 2 and part 3. That means the audience will enjoy many more interesting details.
In the next part, viewers will witness the special relationship between Denji and Reze, the first girl that Denji truly fell in love with. But ironically, Reze is a dangerous Bomb Devil, making this relationship always wavering between love and betrayal. Besides, the character full of personality - Storm Devil, will appear, bringing fierce and equally surprising action scenes. In addition to Reze, part 2 also introduces many interesting characters such as Typhoon Devil or new agent groups from many countries. This makes the film's setting more expansive, the confrontations are also more fierce and more strategic than the previous part.
In particular, the battle with the Gun Demon is one of the most epic arcs in the entire series. Not just pure action, this is a story with a strong tragic color, paving the way for the uncompromising confrontation between Denji and Makima - a powerful, mysterious woman and also the biggest haunting ghost in Denji's life.
More than just bloody action, Chainsaw Man Season 2 brings emotional depth and clear maturity to the main character Denji. Denji must choose between his desire to live a normal life and his indelible demonic nature in a chaotic world.
The return of Chainsaw Man Season 2 has made the anime community in general and fans of this movie in particular extremely excited. But can season 2 surpass the success of the first season, or will it continue to create surprises for viewers?
