When Does Chainsaw Man Chapter 169 Release?

Unfortunately, it looks like we’re getting another bi-weekly release for Chainsaw Man, as chapter 169 won’t be out for a couple weeks after 168. Chainsaw Man chapter 169 is set to come out on June 25, 11 a.m. Eastern Time.

I’ve included a few timezones down below to give you an idea of when the new chapter comes out in your local regions:

TimezoneRelease Date & Time
USA – East CoastJune 25, 11 a.m. Eastern Time
USA – West CoastJune 25, 8 a.m. Pacific Time
EuropeJune 25, 5 p.m. CET
AustraliaJune 26, 1 a.m. ACT
JapanJune 26, 12 a.m. JST

As always, do keep in mind that there’s a possibility that chapter leaks and spoilers may happen a day or two before the official release.

Where Can You Read Chainsaw Man?

Youā€™ll be able to readĀ Chainsaw ManĀ via the usual channels like Viz and Mangaplus. These sites usually allow you to read the latest chapter for free, but youā€™ll have to pay a small fee or subscribe if youā€™re looking to read the whole series.

In chapter 168, Denji and Asa/Yoru deal with the aftermath of their kiss. Yoru also hints at the fact that she and Asa are sharing a body, though Denji is still left largely confused at what just happened, and just what Asa feels towards him. Asa also confronts Yoru for kissing him without her consent, and the chapter ends as the group heads to a sushi restaurant for food, and to get ready for another battle.

It’s probably nothing, but the slogan of the sushi restaurant says “Death by sushi,” which could be seen as a little ominous.
