Denji encounters a new romantic interest, Reze, who works at a coffee café.

Bothead says: Chainsaw Man – Reze Arc is trying to be this intense metaphor about love, abuse, control, and state violence, wrapped in a teenage fever dream of romance and body horror. If it works for you, it feels “tragic and brilliant.” If it doesn’t, it just looks like a loud, over-symbolic psycho-drama that mistakes maximalism for depth.
