As we have already mentioned before, Chainsaw Man continues to be one of the most popular series not only in the season of Autumn-2022 (October-December)but throughout the year. Its opening sequence wowed from the first time it was shown on screen, and to this day it continues to inspire parodies that just get better one following the other.
The most recent comes from the artist “Zephons” who recreated the popular opening sequence, which features the theme song “KICK BACK” interpreted by Kenshi Yonezubut using the characters from the franchise Genshin Impact. So, “Venti, El Bardo Itinerante” take the role of Power, “Zhongli, The Wanderer of the Mortal World” takes the role of Aki Hayakawa, “Shogun Raiden, The Entity of Euthymia” takes the role of Makima, and “Aether the Traveler” takes the role of Denji.
The video includes a wide variety of references for connoisseurs of Genshin Impactsuch as the results of the gacha or aspects related to the official lore, but for others, it never hurts to see what the community of fans of both franchises can create just for fun.
Synopsis of 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.
