MAPPA’s much-anticipated anime film, Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc, has dropped its explosive first trailer, confirming its deep dive into one of the manga’s most emotional and action-packed sagas. The film adapts the iconic “Bomb Girl” storyline, arriving in Japanese cinemas September 19, 2025, and internationally—through Sony Pictures—on October 29, 2025.
The trailer opens with a dramatic Denji monologue professing his love for Makima before introducing Reze, the enigmatic café worker who challenges his loyalties and unleashes chaos.
Viewers witness visceral battles featuring Denji and new enemies—Bomb Girl and the Typhoon Devil—highlighting the film’s brutal combat and intense stakes.
Beyond gore, the trailer focuses on Denji’s internal conflict between love and survival—taglined by headlines like “Love Is in the Air…”—as he navigates a deadly world.
