Far from reality, Denji and his pet Pochita get involved in killing devils so that he can pay off his enormous debt. But his luck runs out when he gets executed by a devil on site.
In an unexpected turn of events, Denji’s devil pet Pochita merges with his dead body which grants him the powers of a Chainsaw Devil. After acquiring the ability to transform his body parts into chainsaws, Denji uses this new skill to brutally dispatch his enemies. His heroic action catches the eyes of the strongest devil hunter, Makima.
As part of the devil hunting organization known as “Public Safety Bureau”, Makima offers Denji to work at the agency besides herself.
