okay so chainsaw man is all about Hugs. about touch, but specifically hugs. to embrace and be embraced. we see this continously throughout the manga; the first thing denji asks makima for when they meet is a hug, and she obliges. aki hugs angel devil during the climax of the bomb girl arc to save his life (but it’s more importantly a symbol of closeness between them that wasn’t previously there. to embrace is to connect.) reze hugs denji in a final act of trickery before she runs away from him. quanxi embraces the doll version of pingtsi as she is being stabbed by her. aki dies held in denji’s arms, speared by his chainsaws.
finally, and most importantly;
pochita.
pochita who’s dream was to be embraced. pochita who couldn’t embrace anyone before he met and became one with denji because his arms were literal fucking chainsaws. his ”murders” were most likely attempts to hug other devils, but he ended up cutting through them instead (<- this is speculation but in my eyes at least vaguely implied). pochita who becomes denji’s heart, forever embraced by his flesh. remember denji’s first words to makima? it was almost certainly pochita’s consciousness and desires bleeding into denji’s speech, not just denji’s own immediate desire upon seeing makima. (though of course that too.)
chainsaw man is a manga about hugs. the chainsaw devil is a creature who cannot hug anyone, who has arms that excel at killing them instead. <- i’m about to take a leap here but i want you all to hold my hand. this, too, is marxist commentary 🚬 hold my hand. hugs are what connect human beings to each other. connection is what everyone dreams of, secretly, with all of their hearts (pochita; denji; aki; makima). the chainsaw devil is a weaponized concept. he’s a killing machine. his arms are efficient in combat; efficient in war. not suitable for human connection. flesh on flesh is animal instinct and embodies the seeking of safety and warmth. he can’t have this. instead he must fight.
denji inherits his chainsaw arms, but denji is only part devil. denji can embrace others. he does embrace others. that’s why he can ”save” the control devil in ways the chainsaw devil wouldn’t have been able to (this is the final, most heart-wrenching irony of makima only ever seeing pochita and never seeing denji— he never held the key to her dream of being equal to another.) pochita encourages denji to be human, and live a human life. the work force and makima encourage him to become the killing machine ”chainsaw man”, because isn’t he just perfect for it? his entire body is a weapon. he can’t die. chainsaw man who works, and fights, and kills, and only gets to hold someone when they’re bleeding out against his chest. isn’t he just perfectly inhuman?

satoru gojo number one yearner perhaps but jjk is full to the brim of nothing but yearners 😭 suguru yearns like crazy but he’s also fairly action-inclined like if he yearns for you he will have you (threat) he must have you or he’ll die a thousand deaths while satoru in that specific context would not drop so much as a hint lol he’s comfortable loving at a distance. he yearns at a distance. the distance in itself makes him an excellent yearner
i’ll say it at the risk of my own safety . REO’S CHARACTER IS NOT APPRECIATED ON THIS WEBSITE !!!! HE IS REDUCED TO RICH BOY OR YAN BOY OR A SET PIECE FOR NAGI !!!!!!!!!!!!! <- and that’s fine whatever makes u happy he’s a png!!!! but i do love him and i wish there was more thought put into him as a proper character instead of like. Cock Number 2. dygwim
on this topic . imagine waking up one day to a happy home with happy children and a happy husband. you’ve been happy for a very long time. you can’t remember not being happy. this life was tailor-made to make you happy. do you remember anything about your life before you had children, before you got married, before you had your first kiss? can you remember being anything else? if you can’t, it probably wasn’t important. you’ve always wanted children, always wanted a soulmate, always wanted a big house well-lived in. you’re sure that’s right. does it matter if it isn’t? you wake up every morning and ask yourself if you are happy and the answer keeps being yes, every other thought buried under rubble. are you happy? in actuality, do you even remember what that word means?

trying to think of a scenario where suguru wouldn’t want his crush to know he likes them / wouldn’t actively pursue them …… maybe if it was his cool senpai and he felt the need to prove himself as their equal first . or something. doesn’t want to rush in and appear like a lovesick little boy, he wants to carry the air of someone who knows what they want, who knows how to keep it ….. but you make him nervous so …………..
also it just goes to show jjk fans will go to any length to reduce female characters into an accessory for the yaoi because riko already has a family and it’s kuroi. that’s her only family. yes she is a blatant parallel to satoru but that’s the only way she orbits around a male chara in any capacity 😭
random sappy arisugu thought on this evening but i don’t think of myself as someone who is Easy To Understand; not in the sense that i’m special lol just that i’m a Human Individual and also very guarded and choosey with who i let into my space, who i let see me vulnerable, etc (+ i don’t know myself very well in the first place) and so …… suguru kind of being an emotional bloodhound with the person he likes is scary to me 💀 he asks questions, he observes, he remembers things you’re sure no one even heard you say. it’s scary to be known !!!!! and seen through!!!!!!!! but also freeing. there’s a lot of relief in knowing my intentions will be understood, that my feelings will be seen, even when i don’t necessarily want to be seen through... it frustrates me that he knows me so well, but it also makes me think that i can’t possibly live without him again
