In part 2 of Tatsuki Fujimoto's Chainsaw Man, the gripping storyline has captivated fans with its mind-blowing twists and revelations Amongst the excitement, a popular theory emerges, hinting at the true identity of the Fire Devil
Tatsuki Fujimoto's ongoing Chainsaw Man part 2 has been absolutely incredible, filled with unexpected twists and reveals that have captivated fans. As a result, numerous fan theories have emerged, many of which have turned out to be accurate.
One recent viral theory on social media revolves around the true identity of the Fire Devil. Although this theory lacks concrete evidence, it does seem plausible when considering the possible hints scattered throughout the story.
Chainsaw Man: Popular theory suggests the true identity of the Fire Devil
The story so far has revealed few clues about the true identity of the Fire Devil, the embodiment of fear and the hidden antagonist in the Justice Devil arc of Chainsaw Man manga. The Fire Devil typically forms contracts with individuals who perceive their actions as justified, regardless of the moral implications. One intriguing aspect of the Fire Devil is that it does not demand a price in exchange for its contracts.
They have been revealed to bestow upon the individual they have contracted with the power to shape-shift into any form they wish. Consequently, all the parishioners who were witnessed morphing into Chainsaw Man were found to have made a pact with the Fire Devil.
The Fire Devil was deceiving others by posing as the Justice Devil and forming contracts with people, such as the class president, members of the Chainsaw Man church, and Yuko. They were all unaware that they were actually making contracts with the Fire Devil. Despite the mystery surrounding the Fire Devil's true identity, there have been hints suggesting their true nature, with Yuko mentioning the "Justice Devil" being present at their school to Asa Mitaka.
A recent theory circulating on social media suggests that the Fire Devil's true identity is none other than Seigi Akoku. Despite the lack of obvious clues pointing to him as a Devil, the theory claims that Tatsuki Fujimoto actually revealed it long ago.
Up until now in the Chainsaw Man manga, Seigi Akoku has been a minor character who made brief appearances in a couple of story arcs. According to a theory, Yuko's identification of the Justice Devil (Fire Devil) as being connected to their school suggests that they may both be human-like students.
In contrast, Akoku first appeared in the same arc as Yuko and was a member of the school's Devil Hunter Club. Additionally, the theory suggests that Akoku's first name, "Seigi," can be interpreted as "Justice" in Japanese. While this could be a mere coincidence, there's a possibility that Fujimoto included this detail with a specific purpose in mind.
Additionally, Akoku bears a striking resemblance to Agni (also pronounced as Aguni), who was the main protagonist of Fujimoto's previous manga, Fire Punch. Interestingly, the word "Akoku" can also be read as "Aguni" in Japanese. Lastly, the most integral part of the theory is the fact that in the Fire Punch manga, Agni is always aflame due a terrible curse that lit his entire village on fire.
The evidence strongly suggests that Seigi Akoku could be the Fire Devil, based on his name and resemblance to Agni from Fire Punch. This theory also considers the mangaka's previous work. However, the true identity of the Fire Devil in Chainsaw Man remains a mystery, making the potential revelation of Akoku's true identity a shocking twist.
Editor's P/S
As a passionate fan of Chainsaw Man, I find the theory about the Fire Devil's true identity to be intriguing and plausible. The hints and connections mentioned in the article, such as Seigi Akoku's name, his resemblance to Agni from Fire Punch, and his presence at the same school as Yuko, all contribute to the credibility of this theory. It would be an exciting twist if Fujimoto revealed Akoku to be the Fire Devil, further deepening the complexity and mystery of the story.
However, I also believe that the true identity of the Fire Devil should not be revealed too soon. Part of theの魅力 of Chainsaw Man lies in its unpredictable nature and the gradual unraveling of its secrets. Keeping the Fire Devil's identity a mystery for a while longer would allow for more suspense and anticipation, building up to a potentially mind-blowing revelation later in the story. Fujimoto has a knack for surprising his readers, and I trust that he will handle this aspect of the plot in a satisfying way, whether or not Akoku turns out to be the Fire Devil.
