Chainsaw Man – Oct 23

Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc brings the explosive anime sensation to cinemas for the very first time. Adapted from Tatsuki Fujimoto’s best-selling manga, this dark fantasy action epic continues directly after the events of the hit anime series produced by MAPPA. Directed by Tatsuya Yoshihara with a screenplay by Hiroshi Seko, the film promises to expand the brutal and emotional journey of Denji, the boy who became Chainsaw Man.

The story follows Denji, a Devil Hunter for the yakuza, trying to pay off the debt he inherited from his parents, until the yakuza betrayed him and had him killed. As he was losing consciousness, Denji’s beloved chainsaw-powered devil-dog, Pochita, made a deal with Denji and saved his life. This fused the two together, creating the unstoppable Chainsaw Man. Now, in a brutal war between devils, hunters, and secret enemies, a mysterious girl named Reze has stepped into his world, and Denji faces his deadliest battle yet, fueled by love in a world where survival knows no rules.

Production values are soaring, with MAPPA once again leading the animation, known for its striking work on Jujutsu Kaisen, Attack on Titan Final Season and Chainsaw Man. Kensuke Ushio returns to compose the score, while Kenshi Yonezu, who delivered the hit opening Kick Back for the anime, returns with the theme song Iris Out. Yonezu also joins forces with Hikaru Utada for the ending theme Jane Doe.

With returning staff and cast, intense animation, and an unforgettable soundtrack, this marks a landmark moment for anime fans worldwide.

Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc opens in cinemas October 23.
