Chainsaw Man Chapter 221: Release date and everything we need to know

After the shocking events that took place in this week's chapter, fans are getting ready to know what will happen in Chainsaw Man Chapter 221. There is a chance that Part 2 of this beloved manga series might be coming to an end. With the shocking “collapse of Michigan” and Yoru’s terrifying new form of power, the series is diving deeper into uncharted territory.

According to official sources, Chainsaw Man Chapter 221 will be released on November 25, 2025. As always, this series will be available digitally, and fans can read it on Shueisha Manga Plus and Viz Media. The upcoming chapter might take the battle between Yoru and Pochita to a new level, and we might be seeing the end of this part.

Recap of Chapter 220

This chapter was titled 'Bonds and Michigan', and it showed a chaotic battle between Yoru and Pochita. In this fight, Yoru, the War Devil, did her best to continuously attack Pochita, and while the attacks looked extremely dangerous, none of them made it to her target.

In terms of power scaling, it seems like Pochita has been effortlessly evading her attacks and also lands a successful kick on her. She then summons an Eel devil, who unfortunately does not get even a second to shine as Pochita just devours it in an instant.

Then in Chapter 220, Yoru goes on this monologue where she talks about bonds and how spending time with humans, she understood the importance of them. Furthermore, she mocks Chainsaw Man for not having any bond. Yoru goes ahead and invokes all sorts of devils to attack Pochita, and none of them stand a chance.

In terms of power scaling, there is a clear difference. Yoru is undeniably strong, but in comparison to Pochita, she lacks strength. Then came the most unhinged twist of all: Yoru summoned the Michigan Sword, which is a weapon forged from the very concept (and state) of Michigan itself.

The chapter’s closing narration, credited to Fumiko Mifune, confirmed:

“The state of Michigan collapses at 11:23 a.m.”

If fans are wondering why the creator chose this particular location to turn into a weapon is because historically, Michigan was a center of weapon manufacturing during World War II. Since the chapter was released, it went viral within hours, turning the state’s destruction into both a meme and a symbol of Fujimoto’s unpredictable storytelling.

Fans have been constantly talking about how the creator released a chapter of only 15 pages and yet managed to raise the stakes to a high that cannot be compared with anything. With that huge twist of an ending, everyone is waiting to see how the creator develops the story next.

What to expect from Chainsaw Man Chapter 221? (Speculative)

Trending

Fans can expect Chainsaw Man Chapter 221 to start from Yoru fighting against Pochita with her Michigan Sword. The world around the duo is literally collapsing, and readers believe that if anyone does not intervene in this fight, then humanity is under threat of being wiped out. Additionally, Denji was not part of this week's chapter. So, fans are hoping that he makes an appearance in Chainsaw Man Chapter 221.

Finally, if the story is really coming to its climax, chances are his introduction in a chapter could be used as a foundation for the start of Part 3. But what fans are truly hoping for is the revival of characters like Reze or Power, as they have been fan-favorites and want to see them back in action. In the end, as Chainsaw Man Chapter 221 approaches, the fandom is united in one feeling: Nervous excitement.
