According to the manga written and illustrated by Tatsuki Fujimoto, Chainsaw ManJanuary 29th is the birthday of power, one of the main characters of the franchise. For those who may not remember her, her description writes:
- Power is a possessed and Public Safety Demon Slayer, part of Makima’s squad. She is Denji’s co-worker and good friend, sharing a flat with Aki Hayakawa. She lacks manners and often lies to avoid punishment. She is very fond of her cat Nyako, to the point of being willing to sacrifice Denji’s life to save Nyako, who had been captured by the Bat Demon.
Because the anime adaptation of Chainsaw Man Just finished a few weeks ago, the artists had already been quite active posting images of the character:

Synopsis for Chainsaw Man
The story takes place in a world where Demons threaten the peace of humans, making them targets to be eliminated. Denji is a depressed young man who has sold several of his organs and works as a lumberjack and demon hunter to pay off his late father’s debt. Denji owns a dog (which is also a demon) named Pochita, who has chainsaws and which he uses to do his work.
This is explained because humans can make contracts with demons. After returning home from a job, Denji is called by a Yakuza to infiltrate a building and kill another demon. However, the plan was a trap to assassinate him as part of a Yakuza contract with the demon, gaining them more power. But Pochita comes to Denji’s aid and bonds with him, becoming a half-man, half-demon and acquiring Pochita’s chainsaws.
The entry Chainsaw Man Celebrates Power’s Birthday was first published on Kudasai.
