Chainsaw Man is the latest action, horror, and thrilling anime. It is full of interesting characters with unique devil powers. Today, we have a really “annoying” crybaby characters’ devil contract to discuss. And it is none other than Kobeni!
Table of Contents
Kobeni is indeed one of the oddest characters in Chainsaw Man who serves as a member of the Public Safety Division 4. She joined this Division due to her parents’ financial status. However, she has no desire to fight! So, let’s find out which devil is Kobeni in contract with! Without further ado, let’s get started! (SPOILERS ALERT)
KOBENI’S DEVIL IN CHAINSAW MAN
Kobeni Higashimiya’s Devil Contract
While it still hasn’t been revealed who actually is Kobeni’s devil but we know for a fact that it has something to do with luck! This theory holds most of the weight in Chainsaw Man.
Kobeni is the only member of Special Division 4 apart from Denji who makes it out alive by the end of the story. Despite the fact that she has come across multiple dangerous situations and taken on opponents that were strong enough to defeat Denji, Aki, and others. She even managed to easily defeat Katana Man in his normal/human form. (Chainsaw Man Manga: Chapter 28) She cut off his arm before he could use the guns and by catching his gun.
As for who is Kobeni’s Devil, we still don’t know who it is for certain. Many believe that her Devil would be Black Cat Devil or some other symbol that depicts bad luck. It could also be luck that people fear.
While the anime is still ongoing and the story of manga progressing, let’s hope that Kobeni’s devil will be revealed someday! For now, it’s a huge mystery that nobody knows about, not even the manga readers!
The Four Horsemen
Many fans claim that Kobeni might have a contract with the Four Horsemen which is made up of, the Control Devil, the Death Devil, the War Devil, and lastly, the Hunger Devil! These Four Horsemen are known to be the strongest devils in the universe of Chainsaw Man. They remember the devils that have been devoured or finished by Pochita!
Fans have made a theory that Kobeni might have been in a contract with the Death Devil or the Hunger Deil. But again there isn’t any support or evidence to accept the theory. This theory explains that Kobeni can easily escape deadly situations and is one of the survivors in Chainsaw Man.
On the other hand, Kobeni loves food, so the Hunger Devil might be in contact with Kobeni. We have seen Kobeni working at a diner after she stopped working as a Devil Hunter. But again, there are so many characters in Chainsaw Man who love food. I mean, look at Denji! He’s the type of guy who’d do anything for food. Isn’t that right?
After Hunger Devil, we have the Fear Devil who isn’t yet confirmed to be a devil in Chainsaw Man but it’s possible that he might be the most powerful devil in the story. The concept behind this theory explains Kobeni’s fear and overall personality. She’s scared of everything! Her reactions are always top-notch and extra. If you guys have seen Chainsaw Man, you can probably hear her screaming just after reading her name,
Next, we have the Misfortune Devil who’s again one of the theorized devils in Chainsaw Man. This devil would get inside the body of the fear of bad luck. Kobeni is an unlucky character who isn’t used to challenging situations and usually is the first one to back off out of fear! So, we never know which devil she possesses! Let’s hope it will be revealed someday! But for now, let’s talk about Kobeni’s prowess and what makes her so special and this theory so popular!
Kobeni’s Prowess
Even though Kobeni is quite talented, she’s shy and timid as well. These things hold her back from growing as a person and as a Devil hunter too! But guess what? She tends to go crazy, especially while fighting Katana Man in his human form along with Akane Sawatari. (Chainsaw Man: Chapter 28) So, she’s not as naive as we think! There’s definitely something more to Kobeni.
Physical Powers
Kobeni possesses an impressive level of activeness. She’s fast and that’s how she was easily able to dodge Snake Devil’s attack. (Chainsaw Man Manga: Chapter 28) While she was playing the Dance Dance Mushroom, she managed to get the highest score! (Chainsaw Man Manga; Chapter 89) So this proves how quick Kobeni’s reflexes are.
Other Skills
Kobeni is an expert when it comes to using a knife. She keeps it inside her pocket as a primary weapon. Yes, she managed to defeat Katana Man through it.
Besides using a knife, she can also drive very well, she has a driving license and her car as well! She used to be a chauffeur for her family, but her exact skill is still unknown since the only time she has been seen inside a car was when Power crushed it! (Chainsaw Man Manga: Chapter 57)
Conclusion
Chainsaw Man is an amazing anime that fulfills every craving of yours. It tells us about a devil hunter named Denji and his journey in the Special Division full of Devil Hunters. He used to be a broke boy without anything. He lost everything and ended up in a contract with a devil that uses chainsaws! So, as the story progresses, we come across many unique characters with different abilities. Some of them have ghost devils, some have spirits, and whatnot! This anime is full of diverse possibilities. So, nothing is expected!
Anyways, I hope you guys enjoyed reading the blog! Do let us know your theories about Kobeni in the comments down below! Let’s see what happens next in the story and I really hope that they end up revealing Kobeni’s Devil at the end! That’s it for now guys, see you on the next blog!

Make sure to watch these shows with someone, you’ll get super creeped out watching them alone. Hence, this is the list of 27+ DARK Anime Series That are Super-Creepy 29. Hell Girl We start our list with Hell Girl! Have you been tormented to the point that you think you can’t take it anymore? The Hell Girl makes a deal with the victims of assault or any other unpleasant action, she gives them a chance to take revenge. The people who tormented you will be killed swiftly, but there’s a catch, the Hell Girl only accepts one form of payment. You will live your afterlife in Hell! What's creepier than this? 28. Memories Memories is not a cohesive anime series, it is a bundle of three different anime grouped into one single title. There are three different stories set in three different settings which have nothing to do with each other plot-wise. The anime is old but still boasts some great artwork for its time. The stories will make you uneasy for sure, they tackle psychological issues mostly making the viewer think about its tortured characters. This is where this show shines the most, it’s an absolute must-watch for weebs. We all know that when psychological torture is involved, it's a game over! 27. From the new world Your expectations of a cyberpunk future world will get shattered by this anime. The story is set in a futuristic world, but there’s a catch, the world changed a bit, in fact, it looks like they have gotten even more traditional than before. The anime is set in a dystopian future, which is the correct description for this show. The story follows a girl who has just recently awakened her psychic powers and is learning to harness them, that’s right, in this world psychics rule with an iron fist, hence those who awaken these abilities are deemed higher class people. But what happens to those who don’t awaken these powers? Well, you’ll have to watch the anime then. 26. When They Cry The first episode of this anime may fool you, but the anime might come off as another cheeky harem where our protagonist gets every girl he wants but this will change soon. The place where our main character moves has this ongoing mystery surrounding murders. In this village, every fourth year a murder takes place and our main character knows the murderer he is close to her. This show doesn’t shy away from showing dirty and gruesome scenes of this crazy lunatic murderer. This anime is not a good watch if you feel uneasy whilst watching disturbing imagery. 25. The Junji Ito Collection Junji Ito is the face of the horror genre in Japan. His mangas have been adapted into countless shows and movies. There’s this quality about Junji Ito’s work that makes it stand out from all the other horror stories. Junji Ito Collection is a collection of various Junji Ito stories, the most famous one has been adapted in the anime. Though many criticize the anime for not having good animation, we still recommend this anime. As the stories are so great, you’d forget that the animation isn’t at the level of Junji Ito. 24. Corpse Party Based on a popular survival game, Corpse Party doesn’t disappoint. This anime is the definition of horror, with its dark backgrounds and gory scenes, Corpse Party manages to deliver a great horror story. The setting is a bit cliche as it is set in a high school, the students who were attending a cultural festival suddenly get trapped into an alternate reality. The school where they’re stuck is haunted and our main character tries to survive it. 23. Gosick This is a show for noir movie lovers. Gosick follows the adventures of two siblings as they try to solve mysteries across their country. The show doesn’t have a lot of jump scares, but the first few arcs of the anime deal with ghosts and supernatural beings. The gothic style of this anime is the main reason why we gave it a spot on this list. 22. Kagewani The recent Godzilla movie has caused many fans to go and rewatch various shows involving monsters and Kaijus. And if you’re hungry for some more monsters and unknown creatures, Kagewani is the anime for you. The plot revolves around a guy whose main goal is to kill these human-eating monsters that roam freely. The show has a spooky feel to it and the scenes with the monsters in it are scary, to say the least. 21. The Garden Of Sinners Up next is a movie from the director of the beloved Fate series. The garden of sinners follows the adventures of Shiki Ryougi, who belongs to the Ryougi clan who are well known for their demon-killing abilities. The anime tackles various aspects of the horror genre, with the first movie being about a girl who is trying to kill herself and the next one following the story of a serial killer. The movies are definitely worth your time as the animation is great and the soundtrack is enough to give you chills. 20. Terra Formars Girls are going to hate this one, what can be more terrifying than a cockroach? A humanoid cockroach who’s on a mission to purge all humans. The characters in this show are so well designed that every time you look at them you’d feel uneasy. The nasty grin the cockroach makes is enough to give you nightmares! As these roaches wreak havoc, our defenders combine with various insect powers to eliminate these pesky little bugs. Pest control at its finest! 19. School Live The world is plagued with zombies and the entire existence of humanity is on the line, but this won’t stop our main characters from going to school. Seriously, this isn’t a joke, one of them is depressed, and knowing that humanity is fighting for its survival will be enough to break them. The show manages to find a balance between cute moments and genuinely horrific gory scenes, where humans get devoured whole. A must-watch for psychological thriller fans. 18. Deadman Wonderland This show is crazy, to say the least, the scenes in this anime are really disturbing. The slaughter in this show is so gory and unpleasant to watch that horror fans love this show with all their heart. A normal high school student gets prison time for murdering his classmates when in reality he didn’t do it. So he’s sent off to a facility where borderline crazy freaks who only have murder on their mind. This anime isn’t for the faint-hearted. 17. Umineko: When they cry Umineko is like a breath of fresh air in this chaos of various horror anime shows. Umineko is a horror show, but it is different, it manages to set a mood with its gothic art style and uncanny music which is more than enough to cause a sense of hysteria amongst the viewers. A bunch of greedy aristocrats and their offsprings are being killed by a spirit, and they try to survive. If the idea of killing greedy people seems good to you then this is the best anime for you. 16. Highschool of the dead Highschool of the dead is set in a world where a zombie apocalypse has just started. The high school classmates have to navigate through this horde of zombies if they want to survive. The show is great at combining fan service with gruesome gory scenes, the combination may seem unlikely but in this case, it just works. In some scenes, the show becomes a total shonen anime but when the people fighting to get brutally devoured we realize this is far from being a typical fighting anime. 15. Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust It can’t get any more awesome than this, Vampire Hunter is one of the best classic anime of all time. The main character D is a Vampire hunter and has been killing these things for years, but one Vampire is causing him trouble, watch the anime to find out why. The animation though being old still manages to capture great moments and the fight scenes are filled with gory action scenes. 14. Devilman Crybaby Devilman Crybaby is a remake handled by Netflix, and they have done a great job at animating it. The show has one of the most gruesome and horrifying plots where unknown creatures are killing off humans. After attending a rave party, our main character becomes a devil-human hybrid and from there on it is only violence and murder galore. The use of techno music and psychedelic visuals put this show in a class of its own, though the animation may seem different than usual, when you watch the first couple of episodes, you’ll start loving it. The almost dystopian feel that this show brings to the viewers is spooky, to say the least. 13. Paranoia Agent The city Misoshina is thrown into chaos as a mass murderer is on the run and the authorities are having no luck capturing him. This pesky little murderer swiftly moves through crime scenes on his golden roller skates. With his golden bat, he slaughters people most inhumanly. Due to this the town folk are always on high alert. The anime is great at portraying the psycho of this mass murderer, and the art style and music just adds more flavor to the story. 12. Tokyo Ghoul Kaneki suffers a lot in this show, but his suffering managed to make him one of the most loved anime protagonists of all time. In a world plagued with ghouls, who devour humans, Kaneki is a normal kid. But one incident changes his life forever. After that incident, Kaneki has become a ghoul and can’t eat human food, the psychological trauma that Kaneki goes through is really hard to see. Tokyo Ghoul is a classic and should be watched by every weeb regardless of their taste. 11. Mononoke Mononoke is not everyone’s cup of tea. Its art style is experimental and not everyone would enjoy it, but if you’ve decided to get your mind fucked, this show is up for the task. The story follows a medicine seller who travels across Japan in search of Spirits, also known as Mononoke in the anime. He tries to capture these spirits, but before doing that he has to know what's the cause behind the spirits' carnage. This takes the show to another level, as the animation gets good in these parts. The anime has this weird quality to it that can’t be described. Watch the show to get this experience. It is worth your time. 10. Ghost Hound In the world of Ghost Hound, the spirit world collides with our normal world, making a way for many gruesome supernatural creatures to enter our world. The trio of the main characters tries to find links between their childhood trauma and these supernatural events. This anime is far from being about killing demons and spirits, rather than that Ghost hound tries to tell us about how the mind of the spirits work, how they feel about us, and themselves. The anime is great at what it’s trying to achieve and hence makes it into our top 10. 9. Another Misaki, an ordinary high school-going girl, dies in the year 1972, but her classmates and her teacher act as if she was still alive, this leads to a mysterious and spooky plot. The main story starts when a new student, Kouchi, is transferred to the same classroom, but in the year 1992. Soon after his arrival, he notices many of his classmates dying in gruesome ways, so he teams up with a girl to solve this mystery. The mystery starts untangling as Kouichi tries going deeper and deeper into it Koucichi must focus as the secret is just under grasp. Another is a thrilling anime that everyone should watch. 8. Ghost Hunt The name of this anime gives away the plot, it is about hunting ghosts, spirits, and other supernatural beings who threaten the world of the living. The story revolves around a first-year high school student in Japan who goes by the name Mei. She joins the group of psychics in her school and soon finds herself confronting various out-of-this-world spirits. But these spirits aren’t evil, they have their reason for the actions they make, as they were also human once. The story is mysterious and there are a lot of scenes that will make you feel uneasy, which is a good thing in the horror genre. 7. Yami Shibai A strange man with a yellow mask visits a playground every day, where he narrates horror stories to little children. Yami Shibai is a collection of stories narrated by this man in a yellow mask. As the man narrates the story to these children we feel like we’re a part of their group, and the stories seem even more engaging. The stories are some of the best that anime has ever seen! Though the animation may seem a bit odd at first, once you let that slide out of your mind, you’ll truly start enjoying this show. 6. Shiki Shiki is set in a village where a sudden epidemic has derailed the normal life of its citizens. A doctor and our main character team up to bring peace to this wreaked village. There’s a glimpse of horror here but not something that will scare you out of nowhere. Shiki has these unsettling characters that give a spooky vibe, and combine this with intense scenes and you’ll surely get creeped out. 5. Paprika We enter the top ten with this spine-chilling show. In the world of Paprika, scientists have managed to create a device which lets you record your dream, even nightmares! But soon some people realize the downsides of this gadget, as it could also be used to cause psychological harm to people. All hell breaks loose when one of these machines is lost, and coincidently it doesn’t have a new type of barrier that stops outside attacks, inventing a whole new type of terrorism in process. Visually, this anime is breathtaking, to say the least, the art style is great for what it’s trying to achieve. The show takes us into people’s dreams, these dream worlds sometimes are great and happy, but when nightmares plague dreams, get ready because it’s going to get scary. 4. Parasyte Parasyte is a classic anime, most of you weebs might’ve already watched it. The show is known for its crazy animations and intense fight scenes. The anime follows the story of a boy who gets infected by an alien parasite. The main goal of this parasite is to take over a host and control him/her. But he fails to do his task so he starts helping other people. After many loved ones of our MC get slaughtered by this otherworldly parasite, he too becomes a cold-blooded killer. The show isn’t horrifying or scary, but it manages to set an eerie tone which is enough to spook many people. Plus the show manages to pull off some crazy intense fight scenes, so if you’re a shonen fan you will like this one. The different ways in which the parasite is used by our main protagonists are well executed and the fights feel more engaging due to it. 3. The Promised Neverland This anime might look wholesome and nice on the surface, but it gets real dark real fast. The show introduces us to an orphanage where kids live with their mother Isabella, they’re having a great life, but all of this changes when they discover the grim fate that is awaiting them. The main trio tries to get out of this messy situation, but fails many times, the anime follows the struggles of these younglings as they battle to save their lives! Though the anime has started deviating from its original material, season 1 still is one of the best. 2. Monster The monster manages to be in the top tens on various lists. The anime is a classic, many anime fans loved the eerie feeling that this show produced. Dr. Kenzu Tenma is left with this ever-increasing feeling of guilt when he switches from operating on a migrant to a popular celebrity. Due to this, the migrant dies and Dr. Kenzu can’t get his death out of his head. So when a similar situation arises and he has to choose between a poor boy and the Mayor, he lets the mayor die and saves the boy. But after nine long years, the monster comes back to haunt him and his actions of the past. Without spoiling much we leave you here, watch the anime and you won’t be disappointed. 1. Perfect Blue If you’re trying to scare yourself, this show will do it for you, in fact, it will do it so nicely that you’ll think twice before picking up any other horror show. Perfect blue is the perfect mix of horror and psychological thriller, it tackles the story of a widely known member of an idol group who soon realizes her potential and starts acting and modeling. But her life turns upside down when a stalker starts wreaking havoc. The stalker can go to any lengths to make her suffer, the show is frightening with its eerie atmosphere and cold characters. The anime visually is one of the best in the horror genre, it has great character design and backgrounds. And fight scenes are pretty decent too. One thing is sure though, this anime is not for the faint-hearted, think twice before watching this one. Conclusion I bet you're super creeped out by now, right? No? Damn! I'm scared of y'all.
