The next installment of Chainsaw Man is destined for the big screen, titled Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc, as announced at Jump Festa 2024.
Aside from a brief teaser trailer and poster shown during the event, no further details were revealed.
Hosting the panel were the voice actors from the anime: Kikunosuke Toya (Denji), Tomori Kusunoki (Makima), Shogo Sakata (Aki), Fairouz Ai (Power) and Reina Ueda (Reze). In a fun game, each actor drew a custom demon to garner votes from the fans; Shogo created a red panda devil, while Reina sketched a shimeji mushroom devil, Tomori tried to scare everyone with a sleep devil, while Kikunosuke held up a fearful sea devil, rounded out with Fairouz’s detailed rat devil.
Closing out the panel, Kikunosuke Toya read out a letter from Chainsaw Man creator Tatsuki Fujimoto. It revealed that he based the character of Denji on the main character from the 1999 anime movie Jin-Roh and asked fans to not only enjoy Chainsaw Man, but to watch Jin-Roh as well.
