With extreme measures being considered, here’s the official release date for chapter 175 and where to read it first.

Warning: Spoilers ahead.



Chainsaw Man chapter 174 recap

The chapter opens with Japan’s top brass in an undisclosed location. In a report, it’s confirmed that the Chainsaw Devil can erase the very concept of what it eats.

Afterwards, Fumiko Mifune (the last agent who kept tabs on Denji) reveals that the appendaged devil from chapter 174 was the Aging devil, and that Public Safety has formed a relationship with it.

The Aging devil has no attachment to life, so it makes Public Safety an offer: it will willingly feed itself to the Chainsaw Devil in exchange for the lives of 10,000 children.

The offer shocks everyone in the cabal except for the former Minister of Finance Tadashi Hasegawa, who okays the operation and even pulls some strings needed to gather that many children.

The Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry nervously objects but concedes after Hasegawa points out how many children the Minister has.

 With no protests, the order is given to start the sacrifice. But as Fumiko is about to call HQ, everyone’s mouths disappear.

In the last panel, the Chainsaw Devil is shown eating the Mouth Devil in an alleyway, with the Octopus, Mouth, Snow, and Bitterness devils presumably erased as well.
