Chapter 2

The Place Where Pochita Is (ポチタの,) is the 2nd chapter of the Chainsaw Man manga series.

Summary
While riding in the car, Denji stomach growls and Makima offers to buy him some food and since he is shirtless, she also gives him her coat. As they stop at some shop to get food, a man enters wanting help since a devil took his daughter. Makima's udon is ready and not wanting to get soggy, she tells Denji to go kill the devil. Denji also didn't want his udon to get soggy, but Makima reminds him he is her pet and she don't need a pet that says "no".

Denji then goes into the woods, annoyed that she treated him like a dog and remembers that Pochita is gone. He hears some noise and sees a kid playing with the Muscle Devil. As the kid notice Denji, it goes in front of the devil, telling him that the devil saved her from her father, who was beating her. Denji offers the three of them to run together, but as he let his guard down, the Muscle Devil attacks him. As the Muscle Devil destroys Denji's right arm muscle, Denji pulls his cord on the chest with his mouth and turns into Chainsaw Man, saying that he now can kill him without feeling bad and proceeds chopping the Muscle Devil to pieces.

Denji returns to Makima carrying the kid, but is loosing strength from the blood loss and falls in her arms. She asks him how he ended up in that situation and Denji explains that his pet devil became his heart. Makima tells him, he smells of both human and devil and that his friend is still alive in him. As he can't eat the udon himself, Makima feeds him. He asks her what type of guys she likes and she says it's someone like Denji.
