The new trailer shows footage of Denji, Kishibe, Makima, Power, Aki, Himeno, and Kobeni, as well as a montage of cuts from battles in the series. The opening monologue by   The Chainsaw Man opening theme will be “KICKBACK”, by musician Kenshi Yonezu. Yonezu also provided songs like “Peace Sign” for My Hero Academia and “Uchiage Hanabi” for the film Fireworks (with singer Daoko).

As for the Chainsaw Man ending theme, the show will feature a different song in the ending for each episode in the season.

  • ano – “Chu, Taiyousei” (ちゅ、多様性)
  • Eve – “Fight Song”
  • Aimer – “Deep down”
