While there’s no announcement yet, some fans are already speculating that One Piece Red’s Uta will perform the Chainsaw Man opening theme.
Ahead of the opening’s reveal, there are discussions in the MyAnimeList forum that Japanese singer Ado will perform the upcoming show’s opening. Ado is the singing voice of Uta in One Piece Film: Red.
Specifically, some fans have pointed out that Ado does not follow any manga or anime Twitter account, except for the official One Piece and Chainsaw Man accounts, possibly indicating that she will also perform songs for both.

Upon checking, Ado does indeed follow @CHAINSAWMAN_PR on Twitter, though in her following list, it shows that she also follows the official account for Oshi no Ko, along with its author Aka Akasaka and illustrator Mengo Yokoyari.
While the fan speculation about Ado only following two anime accounts is no longer accurate, it’s still a possible indication that she might be involved with Chainsaw Man. After all, she doesn’t follow many other anime/manga accounts.
There’s also a previous interview in Weekly Shonen Jump Issue #23 from 2021 where Ado mentioned that One Piece and Chainsaw Man are her favorite manga in Shonen Jump. Given this, it won’t be too much of a surprise for her to sing songs for both shows.
There’s also the fact that Ado’s songs and singing voice are believed by fans to be a good fit for the upcoming Chainsaw Man anime.

The series' setting features an alternate version of Earth where devils wreak havoc in the world. These devils are the embodiments of a specific fear, and the more that a concept is feared, the more powerful the devil becomes.
Its story follows Denji, a young man who, on the brink of death, enters a contract with the devil Pochita.
This gives him the ability to transform into a human-devil hybrid with chainsaw abilities. He is then recruited by the Japanese Government to become a devil hunter.
