Denji

Denji (デンジ, Denji) is the protagonist of Chainsaw Man.

He was a Devil Hunter working with a devil Pochita, in attempt to clear his debt. After meeting Makima, he became a Public Safety Devil Hunter.

Appearance
Denji is a young man blond, scruffy hair. He has sharp yellowish-brown eyes with bags underneath and sharp teeth to match. He is a bit scrawny with protruding ribs due to malnutrition. Once Denji forms a contract with Pochita and Pochita becomes his heart, a chainsaw starter forms in the middle of his chest and regains the body parts that he lost.

Powers & Abilities
Chainsaw Devil Transformation: By pulling on the cord emerging from his chest, Denji can transform into a bloodthirsty Chainsaw Devil.
 * Chainsaw Manifestation: As part of his transformation Denji grows fully-functional chainsaws from his arms and his head.
 * Chainsaw Retraction: If he needs the full use of his arms, Denji's chainsaws automatically retract into his body.

Enhanced Strength: In his transformed state, Denji has enough strength to catch a thrown car out of the air without staggering and throw it back equally as hard.

Enhanced Durability: In his transformed state, Denji withstood a point-blank blast from the Bat Devil that destroyed the building behind him. Denji was able to stand up and continue fighting despite being hit by the attack.

Blood Healing: After becoming a Devil Denji gains the ability to heal and recover lost body parts as long as he has a sufficient amount of blood. After losing his arm to Bat Devil Denji's arm re-attached itself after he received a blood transfusion.

Weaknesses
Anemia: Because Denji's chainsaw body parts must cut their way out of his body Denji loses major amounts of blood.

Blood Need: Denji's chainsaw abilities require a certain ammount of blood. When Denji is low on blood he cannot fully activate his chainsaws and is weakened.
