On January 20, 2026, the cover for Chainsaw Man Volume 23 was revealed, featuring Pochita in his Black Chainsaw Man form within a predominantly yellow backdrop.

Titled, “War, Panties, Chainsaw”, this covers Chapter 211 of the same name to Chapter 222: “Denji Man”.

Interestly, the cover does not show Denji Man but Pochita, likely due to Fujimoto needing to show Pochita in a volume cover in his true form and because he has appeared the most through the first battle with Yoru.

The volume will be released on February 4, 2026.
