"Shout That This is the Best Ever!" Cover Illustration for the 6th Theater Visitor Bonus of 'Chainsaw Man The Movie Reze Arc' Revealed, Featuring a Precious Childhood Friends AU

On December 2nd, the official Chainsaw Man X account announced the 6th theater visitor bonus for Chainsaw Man The Movie Reze Arc. Many fans have expressed their emotions over the illustrated figures of child Denji and Reze depicted on the bonus cover illustration.

Chainsaw Man is an anime based on a comic (written by Tatsuki Fujimoto) whose second part has been serialized on Shonen Jump+ since July 13, 2022. The TV series aired from October to December 2022, and Chainsaw Man The Movie Reze Arc has been screening in theaters since September 19.

The 6th theater visitor bonus is an alternative cover version of the booklet "Koi Hana Chainsaw Guide" that was distributed as the 1st bonus, with the main text content being identical to the 1st edition. Since the 1st bonus is no longer being distributed, this is a welcome bonus for fans who were unable to obtain it.

The alternative cover illustration depicts child Denji and Reze in what appears to be an elementary school graduation ceremony setting. Fans are showing signs of jubilation over this illustration representing an alternate universe, commenting "Chibi Denji is so cute," "Thank you so much, this is too precious, it's amazing," "They've finally become childhood friends," and "I thought they'd be graduating high school but they got younger lol."

Additionally, voices from fans excited about the bonus were observed, paraphrasing a line from the Future Devil appearing in the work with "You too should shout that this is the best ever!!!!," as well as fans experiencing cognitive dissonance similar to previous bonuses, saying "Come to think of it, Denji and Reze were childhood friends since elementary school, weren't they?"

It should be noted that it has already been announced that theater visitor bonuses for Chainsaw Man The Movie Reze Arc are scheduled to continue through the 7th edition, and expectations are being placed on the remaining bonuses.
