VerifiedCapitulo con mucha acción y uno de las escenas mas icónicas y graciosas . La animación de la pelea es absolutamente hermosa.

VerifiedAbsolute madness! 🤢 Denji’s "infinite" strategy against the Eternity Devil is peak shonen creativity. The ending sequence at the Izakaya is legendary for all the wrong (but right) reasons. Himeno is such a complex character vibes are heavy but relatable. 🍻

VerifiedSuch a chill episode, but Makima’s arrival at the dinner scene dialed the tension up to 11. It’s a masterclass in atmospheric storytelling. The soundtrack and visuals for the ED are absolute bangers once again. The production value is just immaculate.

VerifiedThe episode opens with an unhinged and gory battle scene with Chainsaw Man with peak animation and voice acting. There are iconic interactions between Denji and Himeno, and the catchy and cute ending song that makes a fun reference to one of them should not be missed.

You really have to feel for Denji because that three day bloodbath was for nothing once she puked

My stomach actually turned when Himeno finally leaned in and let it all go in his mouth

That graveyard scene, Kishibe really just laid it all out for me, didn't he? Hearing him admit he's got "screws loose" just made me realize how utterly brutal their world is and that being broken is probably a prerequisite for surviving it, which is a pretty wild thought to have.

Watching the Eternity Devil literally beg was such a wild sight, I genuinely didn't think it'd be *that* pathetic in the face of Denji's complete refusal to give up. The sheer amount of blood and guts everywhere made my skin crawl, but you couldn't deny it made that final blow feel earned and ridiculously brutal.

I seriously can't get over that ending because Himeno is such a mess, and Denji just wanted something sweet for once in his life. The fight with the Eternity Devil was absolutely brutal with that Maximum the Hormone track playing while he just shredded everything in sight for days. It really makes me wonder what is going to happen in her apartment now.
kofu_364
When Denji just kept going, that endless chainsawing of the Eternity Devil for three days, it made my skin crawl – I mean, how much of 'Denji' is even left after something like that? I was just left wondering if he's even capable of feeling anything besides the grind now, which is a scary thought.

Aki looking so exhausted after the hotel loop makes you realize how much pressure he is under and Himeno is the only one who actually sees it
astolf
The animation for the vomit scene was way too detailed, and it made the whole izakaya party feel like a fever dream.
gashadokuro_ghoul
Makima outdrinking everyone like it was nothing was so intimidating and you can tell there is something really wrong with her under that calm face
ubagabi_usurper_93
I feel so bad for Denji after that kiss and the way it just turned into total nightmare fuel made me want to gag right along with him
wiseman_381
That unexpected memory of Denji eating garbage, right after the puke kiss, completely gutted me; I was honestly bracing for a typical gross-out gag, but it just made me realize how much he's still fighting against that childhood desperation. It’s hard not to feel for him, and I really hope he gets a proper victory soon, one that truly lifts him out of that past.
tatl_264
seeing denji turn himself into a literal perpetual motion machine by drinking blood was insane and he really does have the most screws loose out of everyone
princess_abi_254
Makima winning that drinking contest without even breaking a sweat was terrifying, but nothing compares to the absolute nightmare that was the ending of that party at the izakaya.
peepe_wabawaba_487
I think I actually gagged when Himeno threw up in Denji's mouth because it was so detailed and gross. My guy just wanted a kiss and instead he got a mouthful of warm beer and barf
umibozu_usurper
I can still hear the sound of the puke hitting his mouth and it is going to haunt my dreams tonight. My heart breaks for Denji because that was his big reward
professor_kukui
That devil literally begging for death was so metal and it really shows how scary Denji gets when he is revving those saws for three days straight
EPISODE CONTEXT
Sitting at the season's midpoint, this episode serves as the critical exhale after the grueling Eternity Devil confrontation that dominated episodes 5 and 6, letting the cast process what they've survived. It deepens the bonds between Denji, Himeno, and Aki in ways that reshape their dynamic heading into the season's back half. The personal stakes established here directly fuel the escalating threats and emotional payoffs that define the final stretch of episodes 8 through 12.
