How is Chainsaw Man the scariest without being the strongest?

It's still a very succinct analysis, but I find it fascinating how this whole chapter is irrigated by an idea that will only be verbalized at the very end.

How to make a decapitated teenager fearsome: by placing him in the demonic hierarchy.

Demons are closer to the animal kingdom than to the human, or rather, humans are merely the demons' prey, placed after them on the food chain.

But this food chain still exists within the demons themselves, and the law of the strongest naturally prevails.

So this chapter very effectively places us in this hierarchy by means of a key element: reminding us just how strong Guangxi is.

This is most effectively established by the arrogant nail fiend, who flatly submits to Guangxi's plea for mercy before she attacks.

More classically, this is underlined by the speed with which Katana Man was sliced open. The discrepancy being made by the fact that Katana man was transformed when she is not, even in her human form, she remains stronger.

Third element: the relationship with death. Guangxi has the same nature as CSM, weapons that know no finitude. This gives the impression that they're both in the same category and, given her power, puts her above Denji's more chaotic, instinctive abilities.

Which she recognizes. She's obviously stronger than CSM. But this one is more frightening.

Even in his most vulnerable state, human and decapitated, Denji acts like a malevolent totem, pushing an overpowered weapon like Guangxi to bend.

But all this seems confusing because CSM's golden rule is that the scarier a demon is, the stronger it will be. So if Quanxi is scared of CSM, why isn't CSM logically stronger?

The chapter answers this: Guangxi allows Yoru to kill her. In other words, the most logical conclusion to a physical and combative power struggle : death is not what frightens Guangxi. So what is it that frightens Guangxi?

Chainsaw Man is bad luck. When Guangxi faces the more vulnerable Denji, she remains stoic, as if she doesn't want to awaken a curse.

Once again, the answer is in the chapter. What's more frightening for beings who aren't afraid of the logic of the food chain because they don't know death? The death of their loved ones.

The food chain does not allow us to identify the hierarchy between several individuals of different species. How can such a miserable human be the superior of such a strong weapon? Because he holds something precious in his hands: her loved ones. Chainsaw Man is just as much a threat to them, so Guangxi, however strong, doesn't go near him.

Symbolically, this man who had little empathy or respect for his wife doesn't understand the reaction of a demon who refrains from offending Chainsaw Man : Guangxi who clings to the bodies of her lovers like lost treasures.

Seeing Chainsaw Man is a painful memory for Guangxi, as he is the mark of the mission that cost her the lives of her girlfriends.

Even if Chainsaw Man is not the direct result, he is an abyss around which stronger demons sometimes gravitate, but above all a black hole into which loved ones sink.

Denji himself is proof of this, isn't he? He's merged with this curse. His relatives have all paid the price.

Guangxi is actually in the same state as Denji. Decapitated, her lace bandage symbolizing a false scar, a false scar for a being who can't have one, an unhealed mourning.

Denji is once again subject to this curse. For a clue was slipped last time that this one had a bottom of conscience.

What did Denji want to do? Helping Nayuta, no? What stopped him?

Pochita.

When we see Chainsaw Man, we see the scariest thing of all.

Loneliness.

This is on the wiki but like I feel the need to say it here too. In Chainsaw man there is an inaccurate romanization/ transliteration of the lesbian devil hunter. People translating from Japanese romaji to English approximation then to Chinese assumed that Quan has a different vowel + consant sound than it does likely from not understanding pinyin (closest English for quan is that it starts with ch the second part sounds like when). Her name in the Mandarin translations is 光熙 or Guangxi (guang rhymes with song - the g is said basically the same as English - think gwong). There's some fake translation of 泉溪 going around idk where it came from but it doesn't show up in Baidu or Google searches in Chinese. Her name is Guangxi not Quanxi. Sad I don't think this will ever be fixed but they really are said completely differently

I'm not an expert on Chinese naming but from what I gather the incorrect translation of Quanxi 泉溪 means something like "springwater creek"- the correct translation: Guangxi 光熙 means something like "radiant light"

the two names have nothing to do with each other and invoke very different imagery

It's actually sad to me that my sister told me this months ago when I first started getting into the fandom and I had no idea that it's really 99% of the fandom that calls her the wrong name. It's not pinyin vs Wade Giles or Mandarin vs Cantonese. It's literally the incorrect name improperly translated by some people who didn't care to look up how Chinese works

#chainsaw man #quanxi #光熙 #guangxi #if i catch up and talk about this series again i will write her name right even if all of you think it's quan=kwan 😔#meanings of these are different too #csm

hey since you're someone who likes to write meta I thought I'd let you know that Quanxi is actually a mistranslation of her name. It's Guangxi!

Hi, thanks a lot for the clarification! I'm obviously no expert on the subject. I'm not really surprised either that a bad translation is so popular. In the French version I think it's "Quanshi" (lol)
