Stop reading Octopus Man during break weeks. It's not doing any good for your brain.
Denji is, and always will be, the hero and protagonist of the manga "Chainsaw Man".
You've simply never read a story where the hero has a darker side yet still remains the protagonist.
"Fujimoto: If you ask me, don't they basically all have something wrong with them? That's why I prefer the superheroes from DC Comics over Marvel Comics, there's a little more realism to them that I like. Many of them are bearing some kind of sadness and are even depicted as criminals. It's abnormal to have enough power to save someone in the first place, so they can't live ordinary lives. The protagonist of the movie "American Sniper" is a real sniper who was deployed in the Iraq War and honored as a legend, but the enemies called him a devil, and put a bounty on his head. He also felt mentally unwell afterwards but nevertheless went to the front a total of four times, and in the end... When I watch that, I think about how a hero gets back up and keeps fighting no matter what, and I wonder if that's actually such a great thing."
