And with 146, it all falls into place
So much of part 2 has finally clicked after this latest chapter. The reason behind the Chainsaw Man Church, the reason Fami approached Asa and Yoru, the Justice Devil's true identity... everything's definitely starting to make sense.
While I'm not entirely positive why fire can transform people (something to do with forging things in flame?), the fact that it gets more powerful the more people it transforms, in addition to being less controllable in greater numbers, definitely reflects wildfires. Maybe the transformation reflects how large scale fires transform landscapes and burn away the old and dead to make way for the new?
At any rate, the emphasis on marriage with the CSM Church now makes total sense, as it would ultimately be a form of contract stealthily made with the Fire Devil. With those numbers, Fami's true goal may be well within grasp.
And that's to kill the Death Devil!!! I guess anyone who was theorizing the eldest sister was already in the story was way off the mark, given that she's now (presumably) the big bad. Of course, this being Chainsaw Man I doubt it'll be that simple, but still. It also now makes total sense that Fami's been messing with Denji and Asa all along, as well as why Nayuta went along with most of it.
This is such a great way to shift the whole meaning of the story. Suddenly our two protagonists, who've been unknowingly at odds for so long, are the last hope to defeat Death. Heh, that's funny. Remember when Yoshida asked Denji if he could erase Death? I wonder what he's up to right-
Oh. OH. And Yoru is about to get a massive power boost from all that fear. Oh.
Well, RIP Octopus Boy. I'm not gonna lie, unless you have some way of escaping real fast, I don't think you're surviving this one.

I desperately want to know what the ankh symbol on Bad's back really implies. Like ok, it has meanings connected to life, death, rebirth, etc right? We know why it's there. But what does it mean?? Why is it there?? You know what I'm saying?
Why is the ankh symbol on his back presumably drawn by his soul vulture blood? His own blood? Did he draw it himself or does the symbol appear when he's really close to death. Maybe it's like a curse to bind him- no, death won't give you any rest or reprieve; you'll suffer by being immortal, doomed to reicarnate as a being of a lower existence.
