As a devil hunter with his dog Pochita, young Denji lives to repay his late father’s debts, taking on jobs from the yakuza along with the “Chainsaw Devil.” One day, called out by the yakuza, Denji is betrayed and killed. As his consciousness fades, a voice speaks to Denji.

Brought to the Tokyo Devil Hunters headquarters, Denji is introduced by Makima to senior devil hunter Aki Hayakawa and the two undertake a mission together. However, Denji gets punched by Aki and told “Quit your job.”

Where is Nyako?
Making a buddy-cop team with the “Blood Fiend” Power, Denji learns she will let him touch her chest in exchange for getting back her old cat Nyako from a devil. Faced with his dream coming true, Denji gets fired up, but—

Rescue Battle
After a fierce battle defeating the “Bat Devil” and saving Power, Denji’s sole aim was “touching her chest.” Though Power is exasperated saying “That’s a stupid reason,” she agrees to let him touch her chest. Delighted, Denji proceeds, but—

Gun Devil
Living together with Aki and Power, Denji finally achieves his dream of touching Power’s chest, but—

Kill Denji

Taste of a Kiss
Seeing Aki stabbed protecting him by Kobeni, Denji dives at the “Eternity Devil.” Seeing this, Himeno recalls certain words…

Gunshot
Experiencing a shocking first kiss, the drunk Denji is carried to Himeno’s home and tempted, but—

From Kyoto
A fierce battle unfold between Denji and the Katana Man. Taking the Katana Man’s companions hostage, Denji is ruthlessly slashed along with the hostages.

More Shredded
After a series of attacks decimating their ranks, the battered Special Division 4 awakens in hospital beds. Unable to accept reality, Aki… Meanwhile, to reinforce Division 4 Makima introduces someone to instruct Denji and Power.
