Chainsaw Man Chapter 144: Release Date, Speculations, Read Online

A familiar face returns to the frontline in chapter 143 of Chainsaw Man titled “Rawr.”

The three hybrids prepare for their oncoming massacre and go over the orders they were given. Spear wants them to focus on murdering women and children so that their screams would be louder, and Whip agrees. The only one with any hesitation is Sword Man.

As they continue their plans, Sword Man gaslights himself into believing it is just an act of God. The three come together and prepare to unleash their strength at 5 p.m., but they’re not the only hybrids at the scene.

3. Chapter 144 Speculations

Fujimoto has unwrapped a massive bomb on us in this chapter with Quanxi’s surprise entrance. From the looks of it, she may have rejoined Public Safety after Makima’s death since she was the original reason she quit at all. However, the fight with the Church is not over yet.

I. Quanxi vs Barem

The only hybrid left to fight is Barem with his flamethrower, but he’s still no match for Quanxi. She was able to take down three hybrids without even transforming, so Barem being able to survive is out of the question. Since he’s smart enough to know her strength, Barem will likely run away instead.

II. Fami enters the scene

Public Safety holds a huge upper hand over the Church with Quanxi’s strength. The Church can only do anything now through Fami, a horseman. Her strength is still in mystery, and even she may be unable to beat Quanxi head-on. However, Fami has been behind the scenes for many months and has probably planned for this situation.

III. Kishibe joins in

A panel from chapter 142 shows a man with his black suit taken off, drinking a pint of beer in an amusement park food court. This fits very well with Kishibe’s character, and since Quanxi showed up in this chapter, he may also reappear.

4. Chapter 143 Recap

The Spear Hybrid goes over their orders from Barem to make the humans scream as loudly as possible. He suggests that they focus on women and children so that their screams are more high-pitched. Besides that, they’ll focus on the limbs so that the sense of loss is very apparent.

While Sword Man is still processing the brutality of everything, the Whip Hybrid gets offended that she got called a child. She reveals that she’ll turn 82 this year but will be eternally young regardless. The three of them justify their orders by calling it a message from God.

Spear Hybrid looks at the clock and announces their massacre will begin at 5 p.m. As the seconds on the clock slowly tick, Sword Man repeatedly tries to convince himself that God justifies this. He convinces himself he’s just a weapon loaning his body for a bit and is prepared to proceed with the order.

The second it hits five on the clock, Spear Hybrid’s limbs and Whip’s head fly off their bodies. Quanxi enters the scene with two katanas in hand, leaving them no time to react. Spear is also decapitated in the next second, and only Sword Man transforms.

He turns to Quanxi angrily and prepares for the battle between hybrids, but she doesn’t even need to look at him to slice him up. Without a single sweat broken, Quanxi remains the only hybrid standing. A little child who just saw the whole thing lies there in shock.

Quanxi turns to him and lets out a dry “Rawr!” scaring him off. He reports to Public Safety that all targets have been suppressed and sends in Special Division 7 after media coverage. The news reports a shooting by Chainsaw Man Church’s followers, which is obviously a lie.

However, the Public Safety uses this as a reason to invade the Church building and check for weapons. Haruka is surprised that the building even has guns and is shocked at the escalation of events.
