But Pochita, who is undoubtedly the most “adorable” character, is now in the spotlight before the anime series even premieres. There are many human and non-human supporting characters in the forthcoming Chainsaw Man anime, but none of them are as close to the lead character as Pochita is.

That’s why many people are trying to know more about him, his origin, and his powers. So, let’s find out everything about him:

Who Is Pochita In Chainsaw Man And What Is His Origin?

In the Chainsaw Man story, Pochita is the Chainsaw Devil, a being who personifies chainsaw terror and served as the Chainsaw Man until Denji showed up.

As their name suggests, devils are a race of supernatural beings that prey on human fears. They were first formed in hell, and each devil has its own distinct personality, set of skills, and outward appearance.

Pochita is primarily depicted as a little orange demon with canine-like characteristics, a handle on his shoulder blade, a cord for a tail, and a chainsaw sticking out of his skull in most of the narrative.

He also has a hybrid form, when he and Denji combine to become a chainsaw-humanoid with four arms and a cord sticking out of its chest.

He resembles the Makita chainsaw brand, and the Chainsaw Man Fandom page speculates that “his name might be a play on Pochi,” a popular dog name in Japan, and the suffix “Ta,” which comes from Makita.

Powers Of Cute Little Devil

Since Pochita In Chainsaw Man is actually a devil, he might have lots of amazing powers. Those powers can be divided into two broad categories: demonic and physical.

Physical Powers:

  • Since Pochita is renowned for his pace, he might have improved his speed and reflexes.
  • He also has enhanced durability equivalent to chainsaws and power tools.
  • He has enhanced strength capable of murdering someone with just a hug.
  • He has an enhanced capacity for regeneration and healing.

Demonic Powers:

  • Devil Erasure is the “Devil that all Devils fear” because when he swallows another devil, he has the power to entirely wipe that entity’s memories from human memory.
  • Pochita has a fairly self-explanatory ability called “chainsaw generation” that enables him to transform into and create chainsaws out of various appendages.
  • He also has chain entanglement which temporarily removed chainsaws and used them as whips to prevent chain tangling.
  • Another very apparent power is bodily assimilation, as Pochita merges with Denji. However, if their agreement is ever violated, Pochita has the ability to take control of Denji’s body as he reverts to his previous form.
