Pochita is a demon in the Chainsaw Man anime, even referred to as the strongest. Not only that but Pochita is also feared and hated by the inhabitants of hell in the Chainsaw Man story.
The characters Pochita and Denji are the protagonists in the Chainsaw Man anime series. Denji makes a contract with Pochita, making him the Chainsaw Man. The figure of Pochita himself is a demon who is greatly feared by the inhabitants of hell. The reason is that Pochita has very strong demonic powers. In addition, Pochita also has a unique role as a Chainsaw Man in hell.
Pochita can transform into his true form at any time he wants to. His true form is known as “Lightning Beast”, which has lightning powers and can discharge electricity from his body at any time he wants to do so. In addition, his strength level increases significantly when he transforms into his true form because he becomes more powerful than before when transforming into Lightning Beast form (see below).
The Chainsaw Man anime centers on a demon named Pochita who has the power to absorb fear. Demons are races from hell that descend to the human world and feed on the fears of humans. Each demon from the Chainsaw Man anime has its role and concept of power that absorbs fear. The stronger the concept of fear, the stronger the demon. But in contrast to Pochita, although not too feared by humans, he is still one of the strongest demons in hell. Pochita himself is the legendary figure of The Chainsaw Devil in hell. Even Pochita’s strength can defeat the powerful demon dubbed the Four Horsemen with ease.
The reason for Pochita being the strongest in the Chainsaw Man anime is the unique role he plays in hell. It is revealed that, instead of persecuting humans in hell, Pochita spends more of his time killing fellow demons. Uniquely, the demons killed by Pochita The Chainsaw Man cannot be reincarnated again. This earned Pochita the nickname in hell as “the most feared demon of the devil”.
This has made him a powerful figure with many enemies who want him dead, including Satan himself. However, Pochita’s abilities and strength have proven to be too much for even Satan to handle.
Although Pochita is considered more of a hero in the Chainsaw Man anime, not with his fellow demons. Pochita as The Chainsaw Man can feed on the fear of his fellow hell demons. Given that fear is a source of power for demons, this is also one of the reasons Pochita is so feared by his fellow demons. This also explains why Pochita has a unique power capable of erasing demons from existence.
Pochita’s power allows him to feed on the fear he instills in others; it also allows him to erase demons from existence by using their fear against them. He can do this because he was once a demon himself; however, he rebelled against his kind and became their enemy instead. Therefore, he gained special abilities that allow him to fight against his former kind to protect humans from them.
