Chainsaw Man manga ends after eight years with no planned Part 3

Tatsuki Fujimoto has brought his manga Chainsaw Man to a close after eight years. The main story ends with chapter 232, which was published last week. The final chapter is titled Thank You, Chainsaw Man, and it gives the series a clear, final ending.

There is no Part 3 on the way. Fujimoto built the finish as a true ending, not a pause before more. A short coda, chapter 233, will follow to wrap up the last loose threads.

Chainsaw Man started in 2018 in Weekly Shonen Jump, the print magazine from the Japanese publisher Shueisha. That run formed Part 1. Part 2 moved online in 2022 to Shonen Jump+, a digital app from the same publisher, and has run there since.

The series has sold about 35 million copies worldwide. That reach made Chainsaw Man one of the biggest new manga of the last decade, in both Japan and the West.

Shueisha publishes the manga in Japan, while Viz Media handles the English edition. The final Japanese collected volume is dated June 4, 2026. In English, Viz lists Volume 21 for June 2, 2026, Volume 22 for October 2026, and Volumes 23 and 24 across 2027.

The ending was reported by Rich Johnston at the comics news site Bleeding Cool.
