Chainsaw Man — Chapter 138

Whew, Chainsaw Man (Official) Volume 16 Chapter 137 has readers feeling a familiar blend of amusement and despair for our perpetually unlucky protagonist! 😂 It seems like Denji’s dating life continues to be a wild ride, with many commenting, "not even surprised anymore" and urging him to "just switch sides at this point" and "start dating boys" for his own survival. Poor Denji, consistency is key, and his luck with girls trying to kill him is certainly that!

Many readers admitted they "GENUINELY had hope in Denji" in the first half, only to be quickly let down – a classic Chainsaw Man bait-and-switch! But it wasn't all just Denji's romantic woes. Fans also geeked out over the chapter’s deeper cuts, pointing out the reference to the highly-regarded Korean thriller *Oldboy* 🤯, and identifying the strangely catchy song as "chuchu lovely munimumi muramura prinprin nururu rerorero" by Maximum the Hormone. Apparently, it "kinda slaps" despite its bizarre name!

Overall, Chainsaw Man (Official) Volume 16 Chapter 137 delivered the usual chaotic fun, leaving readers both entertained by its absurdity and commiserating with Denji's consistently terrible choices. Maybe one day, Denji, maybe one day... or as some hope, "Denji for Asa!"
