Fans may recall that in the previous Chainsaw Man manga, Asa had her arm severed by Yoshida. In the latest Chainsaw Man chapter 157, Asa made a comeback by showing up at the Tokyo Devil Detention Center to save Chainsaw Man from Public Safety.

Asa's arm was still missing, showing that it had not healed yet. This sad sight also brought to mind another tragic event - Aki Hayakawa losing his arm while battling the Darkness Devil.

Fans noticed how Aki and Asa looked alike in a picture shared on Sportskeeda. Despite their initial differences, Denji and Aki eventually became close like brothers. Tragically, Aki transformed into the Gun Devil Fiend and was killed by Denji. Fans speculated that Denji might be reminded of his past when he sees Asa.

Fans were delighted to see Asa return and noticed her similarities to fan-favorite character Aki Hayakawa. However, not all fans shared the same level of excitement. In Chainsaw Man chapter 157, Yoru suspected Asa of getting cold feet.

For those who recall, Aki had also expressed his fears of losing Denji and Power in the battle against the Gun Devil. Sadly, he met his demise shortly after in the manga.

Thus, fans feared that Asa Mitaka would share the same fate as the late Public Safety officer.

One fan noticed that Asa Mitaka not only looked like Aki Hayakawa, but also had the ability to control Devil Makima and Blood Devil Fiend Power.

During the time when Denji and Asa were stuck in the aquarium, Asa behaved like Makima by instructing Denji to obey her commands without thinking.

In the manga, Asa displayed a sense of confidence and expressed herself in a manner similar to Power in chapter 116 of Chainsaw Man. Denji even noted the striking resemblance, mentioning that her way of talking reminded him of an old friend, hinting at Power.

Despite Asa's behavior bringing back memories of happier times for fans, it is important to remember that characters like Aki, Makima, and Power did not survive. This left fans concerned about Asa Mitaka's future, fearing that she may meet a similar fate in the end.
