Overview |
"Listen up, children. Our orders are to make the humans scream as loudly as possible as we kill them. We'll target women and children. Higher voices, better screams."
Spear Hybrid (real name unknown) is a Devil-human Hybrid that merged with the Spear Devil (
He later returns in the Academy Saga as a supporting antagonist, working under the orders of Barem and the Chainsaw Man Church alongside his other fellow Weapon Humans.
Appearance[]
Human Form[]
The Spear Hybrid is a tall man with short blonde hair who wears glasses. He also has a bit of stubble on his chin.
During his time as one of Makima's brainwashed servants, the Spear Hybrid wore the standard Public Safety Devil Hunter suit and tie. In Part 2, he wears a sweater underneath a light-colored coat.
Hybrid Form[]
When transformed, the Spear Hybrid's head resembles a spearhead with a mouth with huge, sharp teeth exposed. Unlike most Hybrids, the Spear Hybrid's arms are covered in dark armor similar to the skin on his head.
Personality[]
The Spear Hybrid's real personality was initially unknown, as he was brainwashed and mind-controlled by Makima. His few lines show him as a competitive individual, proposing to his allies that whoever kills Chainsaw Man first earns the right to ask Makima out on a date.
After being freed from Makima's control, the Spear Hybrid's true personality reveals him as a sadistic, cold-hearted individual with little qualms about harming innocent lives. He also appears to be devoted to Barem's cause of luring out Chainsaw Man with a massacre, even smugly grinning at the thought of making women and children scream in agony when planning to slaughter them. Despite his sadistic nature, he speaks fairly infrequently compared to his compatriots.
Plot[]
History[]
At some point in his life, the Spear Hybrid became a Hybrid upon merging with the Spear Devil. He would later fall under Makima's control after being brainwashed and mind-controlled by her.
Public Safety Saga[]
Control Devil arc[]
The Spear Hybrid is summoned as part of Makima's newly-formed Special Division 5, a team of weapon hybrids created for the sole purpose of battling the fully-powered Chainsaw Devil.[1] While under Makima's control, the Spear Hybrid suggests turning their first operation into a competition, to see who earns the right to ask Makima on a date.[2]
Once Makima commands Special Division 5 to attack, each member activates their weapon trigger, transforming into their Hybrid forms. They all leap from their respective spots to lunge straight towards Chainsaw Man. Before any of the Hybrids can land a single blow on him, they are all blown back by Chainsaw Man leaping forward from the building he stood on to initiate the fight.[3]
Shortly after Chainsaw Man decapitates Reze, who lifted him into the sky, the Spear Hybrid took advantage of this by hurling one of his spears straight at the opponent's chest. He is eventually torn to shreds alongside the remaining Special Division 5 members after Chainsaw Man withstands their combined attack of sending him into space.[4]
At some point in the future, Special Division 5's Hybrids are revived once more by Makima, who brings them all to a graveyard to confront Denji.[5] Once Makima finishes monologuing her thoughts of erasing anything she dislikes to Pochita (who is disguised as Denji), the Spear Hybrid and the other Weapon Humans transform into their Hybrid forms for the final battle.[6]
During this confrontation, he impales Pochita from behind after he takes down Katana Man and Miri Sugo. Reze and the Whip Hybrid attempt to follow up by attacking on both sides. However, Pochita retaliates by using a spinning aerial slash to take down the three Hybrids, who all fall to the ground defeated.[7] Sometime after Makima's demise, the Spear Hybrid was freed from her control and reverted back to his original personality.
Academy Saga[]
Chainsaw Man Church arc[]
Several months after being freed from Makima's control, the Spear Hybrid joins the Chainsaw Man Church alongside Miri, Barem, and the Whip Hybrid. Together, they form most of the church's top brass. A day after Miri's failed attempt to recruit Denji, the Spear Hybrid eats lunch with the other Weapon Humans, discussing their plans to lure Chainsaw Man out of hiding. As Barem and the others talk about their plans, the Spear Hybrid remains silent while reading a book.[8]
On the day of their planned massacre, the Spear Hybrid and his other two fellow Weapons arrive at a food court under Barem's orders.[9] He instructs his comrades to mostly target women and children to maximize the amount of screaming for each killed, much to Miri's growing discomfort. The Weapons then prepare to transform, only to be swiftly dismembered by Quanxi.[10]
Despite being captured by Public Safety, the ongoing Fire Devil attacks throughout the globe allow the Weapons to escape. Reappearing near Denji's burning apartment, Miri and the Spear Hybrid take Fumiko hostage to provoke Denji into transforming to save the world.[11] Upon seeing that Denji has transformed, the Spear Hybrid and his allies attempt to subdue him.
Denji manages to fend off Miri and the Whip Hybrid, only to get pierced from behind by the Spear Hybrid, who attempts to provoke him once more. In an unexpected turn of events, Denji bisects both of them and proceeds to consume the Spear Hybrid to regenerate his body. The Spear Hybrid is rendered unable to fight back once Denji consumes enough of him to continue the battle.[12][13]
