There are various theories about Denji and Pochita in the fandom.
One of them is that Denji might become the villain of the series.
While being questionable initially, this conclusion might lead to an interesting finale.
We all know what commotion the Attack on Titan (Shingeki no Kyojin) ending created. However, when we say “an Attack on Titan ending” we don’t mean a controversial or bad one, we are talking about something else.
What if Denji is the villain of the story?
It’s not like Eren is the true bad guy in Attack on Titan, but he definitely did a lot of questionable and horrible things. Killing 80% of the world’s population might be one of them, we’re not sure. But jokes aside, let’s quickly revise what happened in Attack on Titan.
During the Final Season Eren did a complete 180 when it came to his character. He turned into a silent killing machine from a passionate and aggressive kid. He used to be the main hero but became the main menace in the series. It was later revealed that he was only doing it to save his friends, but still.
What if Denji turns into a villain too?
Chainsaw Man fans have been making theories about Pochita and Denji for ages. Some think that Pochita might be the real villain of the story, and others are worryied that Denji will play that role.
Where would it lead us?
Just like Mikasa had to kill Eren in the finale of Attack on Titan, someone would have to deal with Denji. And the best candidate for now seems to be Asa. So basically when we’re talking about an AoT ending for Chainsaw Man we mean Denji turning into a sinister villain and Asa ending him.
The first reaction to this theory is “HELL NO”. We’ve spent too much time with Denji to just lose him to the dark side and say goodbye. It would destroy his entire character development, and we don’t even want to imagine how cruel his death will be in that case.
Such a finale would contradict Denji’s growth as a character in the manga and go against most of the themes in Chainsaw Man.
However, when you start really thinking about it, this may seem like not such a bad idea, after all. It all comes down to the issue of execution, though. If Fujimoto makes Denji’s “turning into a villain” arc clear and believable, fans agree that this ending might be rather peculiar.
Just imagine how much room for potential heartbreak and suffering such a finale might bring. We’re definitely not ready for this, but we’d be lying if we said we don’t want to see it.
No, we don’t want that.
