Chainsaw Man Chapter 97 Summary
In Chapter 97, Denji decides to live a double life: a normal teenager by day, and Chainsaw Man by night. He takes Nayuta under his wing, ready to raise her differently from how Makima turned out. It’s a hopeful, bittersweet conclusion to Part 1 of the manga. While the scars remain, Denji moves forward — not for fame, but for family. The chapter closes the Control Devil arc with powerful emotional payoff.
