As we have already pointed out week after week, the anime adaptation of chainsaw man is premiering a new ending sequence with each new episode. The most recent, the fourth episode, featured the theme song “Jouzai“, interpreted by TOOBOE, and it was entirely carried out by Power, the main female character of the work. Although this fourth closing sequence of chainsaw man had a mixed reception, with many people praising the involvement of TOOBOEbut not liking the chosen animation style very much, it seems that it was relevant enough to create a trend in social networks. Ai Fairouzthe voice actress who brings the character to life in the anime adaptation, shared two videos on her TikTok account replicating the dance that Power does in the sequence. Fairouz decided to name this dance as “powerdance“, and shared it on networks hoping that others would replicate the trend. Fortunately, her effort was not in vain, since videos of people replicating the dance in question did appear.
Synopsis for Chainsaw Man
The story takes place in a world where Demons threaten the peace of humans, making them targets to be eliminated. Denji is a young and depressed man who has sold several of his organs and works as a lumberjack and demon hunter to pay off his deceased father’s debt. Denji owns a dog (who is also a demon) named Pochita, who has chainsaws and which he uses to do his work. This is explained because humans can make contracts with demons. After returning home from a job, Denji is called in by a Yakuza to infiltrate a building and assassinate another demon. However, the plan was a trap to kill him as part of a Yakuza contract with the demon, gaining them more power. But Pochita comes to Denji’s aid and bonds with him, becoming a half-man, half-demon and acquiring Pochita’s chainsaws. Font: Official Twitter Account
