Denji’s adolescence is marred by the loss of a typical teenage existence, burdened instead by the insurmountable debt left behind by his neglectful father. His sole companion is Pochita, the chainsaw devil, and together they engage in devil-slaying for financial gain, albeit the proceeds often falling into the hands of the yakuza. Denji can only yearn for a simple and fulfilling life, replete with delectable meals and the company of a beautiful girlfriend. However, a treacherous betrayal by the yakuza results in Denji’s brutal and premature demise, shattering any prospects of happiness.

Surprisingly, an ancient pact enables Pochita to merge with the deceased Denji, granting him devil powers and transforming him into a hybrid capable of turning body parts into chainsaws. Due to the potential danger posed by Denji’s newfound abilities, elite devil hunter Makima from the Public Safety Bureau takes him under her wing, allowing him to live on the condition of unwavering obedience. Driven by the promise of a satisfying life alongside an alluring companion, Denji dedicates himself wholeheartedly, fighting relentlessly to turn his simplistic aspirations into reality.
