Chainsaw Man Episode 7 Recap
If you blocked out that scene from your mind, here’s a refresher on what happened.
The episode opened with Denji taking on the Eternity Devil, whom he defeated thanks to his sheer tenacity.
Soon, everyone in the devil hunter group was able to get out of the hotel alive.
After that, Himeno decides to invite everyone for some food and drinks to celebrate.
Among those at the celebratory dinner are all the devil hunters in the hotel mission, and they are joined by others in Public Safety.
Even Makima joined the gathering to the surprise of everyone.
Denji reminded Himeno of the French kiss that she promised him before entering the hotel.
In response, Himeno promised to give him a juicy one after she downed some drinks.
As the night went on, Himeno drunkenly gave Denji a big kiss. But it’s not what Denji dreamed of as Himeno started to puke in his mouth.
Because of his reflex, Denji swallows the vomit, traumatizing him.
Due to this disgusting turn of events, even Himeno VA Mariya Ise jokingly shared that she’s sorry to Denji for what happened.
