Does Makima die in Chainsaw Man? Does Denji kill Makima? Does Makima come back to life? 

Does Makima die in Chainsaw Man anime? 

In the Chainsaw Man anime, we have come across a character named Denji who makes a pact with a chainsaw devil named Pochita by giving his blood. 

Later on, the duo develops a bond with each other, and one day, when Denji dies at the hands of the Zombie devil, Pochita saves his friend by fusing himself with Denji. 

After this fusion, Denji becomes a hybrid known as Chainsaw Man. 

When Denji killed the Zombie devil, the public safety department led by Makima arrived at the spot. 

Makima offered Denji to join her in the Public Safety Department and help people by eradicating devils (mainly Gun Devil), who is only interested in waging war and killing people. 

Every fan of Chainsaw Man anime is aware of the fact that Denji is in love with Makima, but Makima, on the other hand is obsessed with Pochita and cares very little about Denji. 

As of now, Makima’s true intentions are yet to be revealed in the anime.

But as per the manga, later on in the Control Devil arc of Chainsaw Man, we will know about Makima’s true intentions.

Denji would also know that Makima never cared about him. 

She was just interested in Pochita  and wanted to use Pochita’s powers for the betterment of the world. 

So what happens when Denji comes to know about Makima’s true intention in the Chainsaw Man? Does Makima die? Who kills Makima? Does Denji kill Makima? 

Does Makima die?  

Yes! Makima does indeed die in Chainsaw Man anime Control Devil Arc. 

Denji would finally come to know about her true intentions that she is the Control devil who uses people’s fear and manipulates them. 

She wants to take over people’s free will and then create a better world without any war and crime. 

When Denji comes to know about Makima’s true intentions, he thinks of stopping her. 

But the thing is, it is not simple to kill Makima using his Chainsaw Man form because Makima has a contract with the Japanese Prime Minister. 

The contract was that if Makima worked for Japan (Public Safety Department Arc), then if there were any fatal injuries she faced, those would be bypassed to random citizens of Japan via Control devil. 

Therefore if Denji kills Makima, it would get bypassed to some random Japanese citizen, and they would die instead. 

So to defeat Makima, Denji first beats her and then chops her body and eats it, this basically bypasses the contract given by the Japanese prime minister, and Makima dies. 

But as it was a contract with Denji, therefore she technically becomes one with him. 

Who kills Makima? Does Denji kill Makima? 

Yes, Denji is the one who killed Makima. 

After Denji learned about Makima’s true intention, she wanted to take over people’s free will and then use Pochita’s powers to create a better world. 

Denji tries to stop her but killing her is not easy for Denji. 

The reason being he loved Makima deeply, and even if Denji kills her using his hybrid form, she will not die because of the contract with the Japanese Prime Minister. 

Therefore the only way Denji could stop Makima was to consume her body after she is defeated. 

So when Makima was defeated, Denji chopped her body and consumed her, bypassing the contract given by the Japanese prime minister. 

So this is how Makima died in Chainsaw Anime.

Does Makima come back to life? 

No! technically Makima becomes one with Denji as he consumes her she dies so she never comes back to life.

But a reincarnation was born.

As she was the Control Devil, so after Denji eats Makima, a reincarnation of Makima was born in China known as Nayuta. 

Nayuta is then brought to Denji by his mentor Kishibe who tells him to keep an eye on Nayuta. 

Later on, in Denji’s dreams, Pochita tells him the truth that the Control Devil was incapable of creating any human connection and Nayuta was the reincarnation of Makima. 

Therefore after Pochita tells Denji to be kind to Nayuta and raise her, Denji agrees and takes care of Nayuta and the 7 pet dogs that Makima left. 

This proves Denji’s love for Makima was eternal.
