“Chainsaw Man” is all over the media! It’s listed as one of the best animes on news outlets such as Screen Rant, Kotaku, and The Ringer. This anime is filled with interesting characters, such as Power. In this story, you’ll learn the most fascinating trivia about her – from her breast pads to her cats – with tidbits of information from the original manga.
Who Is Power?
Power doesn’t have a last name, so you can adopt this for your brand or whatnot. She is a prominent figure in “Chainsaw Man,” known for her vibrant personality and unique appearance.
In the story, she is a fiend, a devil possessing a human corpse. Her strong bond with her pet cat, Meowy, is remarkable. She initially exudes selfishness and manipulative nature, but the story later reveals she is loyal and caring for her friends, specifically Aki Hayakawa and Denji.
Her most incredible ability is her blood manipulation, which she uses to craft weapons and control blood flow. In spite of her bold outer aura, “Chainsaw Man” interestingly reveals her more vulnerable side, highlighting her complex character development.
Things You Might Not Know Yet About Power
Her Breast Pads Are As Popular As Her
“Chainsaw Man” has characters that will make you drool, like what you did while watching Poison Ivy in the Batman series. In the story, Power explains how she uses breast pads to make her breasts appear more prominent. She is successful at that, as people would take notice of them the moment they see them. Even the publishers turned this into a joke by introducing those pads as candidates in a popularity voting.
Guess what? Her breast pads secured the 25th position with over 2,300 votes, a rank that performed better than the gun fiend and the katana man.
She Owns A Cat With Two Names
Fur parents, you better befriend Power. Because of her love for her cat, she gave it two names, depending on the version of the manga you’re reading. In the original Japanese iteration of “Chainsaw Man,” her cat is named Nyāko, a cute Japanese term for “cats.” In the English translation of the manga, the name is Meowy, highlighting the sound cats make.
Interestingly enough, Power doesn’t care much for living beings, but is ready to sacrifice her life for her pet cat.
She Is The First And Most Unique Fiend In The Anime
The odd world of “Chainsaw Man” comprises humans, devils, hybrids, and fiends. Aside from being the first field, she is also the most unique fiend. Love her or hate her, but she sides with whoever is winning at the moment instead of siding with either devils or humans.
Her Horns Can Grow Massively
Since Power is a devil possessing a human corpse, she’s got horns made out of blood growing out of her head. It’s hard to imagine how liquid becomes solid, but she has those horns. Aside from being proof of her devilish side, they are directly connected to her ability to utilize instruments made out of her own blood and heal herself by feeding herself with blood, too.
In the story, her horns can grow taller and larger whenever she consumes considerable blood. But everything is balanced here. To squeeze those horns to their original size, she must drain additional blood out of her body. For instance, she lets Denji drink some of the blood.
Moreover, additional horns can grow out of her head.
Her Hygiene Isn’t The Best
Unfortunately, power isn’t your best travel buddy. Do you know why? She’s not hygienic. In the story, you’ll learn that she doesn’t take a bath or flush the toilet. Not only unhygienic but irresponsible. She’ll also toss off food like vegetables from her meals simply because she doesn’t like them. She prefers the flesh of undead zombies over human food.
She takes hygiene for granted because she thinks humans are too sensitive to take it seriously, considering she’s a devil in a human body.
Her Hair Color Is Inconsistent
Either because of a coloring and design glitch, or the creative team was intentional about it, Power’s hair color is inconsistent. In some parts of the story, her hair color is pink, but in other parts, it is blonde.
Her Name Has A Christian Origin
Her name is the only non-Japanese name in the anime, at least as far as the main characters are concerned. Anime insiders say her name has a Christian origin. You may have already guessed why. Yes, the name comes from the hierarchy of angels in the Christian religion. “Power” or “Powers” is the name of middle-order angels who, as the name suggests, have power over evil forces. They prevent these forces from inciting harm to the world. Truly, Power in “Chainsaw Man” lives up to her name’s origin.
She’s Famous Among The Fans
Power wouldn’t be famous without the fans. There were official popularity polls done for “Chainsaw Man” that showed that Power topped the leaderboard with over 35,000 votes.
A second poll of this kind was conducted, and she garnered almost 70,000 votes, around double the previous poll. But she came in third. Nevertheless, she’s still popular.
Where To Watch ‘Chainsaw Man’
“Chainsaw Man” last aired in December 2022, but a second season is speculated to be in the works. You can stream this anime on platforms like Crunchyroll and Netflix.
Its story has two arcs. The first arc starts with Denji, an impoverished teenager who agrees to a deal to fuse his body with Pochita, a Devil that resembles a dog. It gave him the ability to turn parts of his body into chainsaws. It’s Weird, but that’s the story.
Denji then joins a government agency known as the Public Safety Devil Hunters, which is all out to fight against Devils who threaten Japan.
Its second arc focuses on Asa Mitaka, a high school pupil who signs a deal with the War Devil, Yoru, who asks her to hunt down the Chainsaw Man to reclaim what she believes was stolen from her.
That’s pretty much it about the trivia on Power. Until next time!
