Preface: Phenomenal Anime Leaps to the Big Screen, Hong Kong Fans Eagerly Await
Since the phenomenal anime "Chainsaw Man" Season 1 swept the globe with its violent aesthetics and insane worldview, fans' anticipation for the subsequent story has never ceased. Now, the official announcement has been made that the highly popular and emotionally intense "Reze Arc" from the original work will make a stunning return in the form of a theatrical film. And Hong Kong fans have even better news - the Hong Kong release date for "Chainsaw Man the Movie: Reze Arc" has been confirmed, and a cruel poem about pure love and betrayal is about to unfold in cinemas.
Hong Kong Release Information: Officially Premieres on September 25
For Hong Kong anime fans, the most concerning matter is undoubtedly the confirmed release date. According to official announcements and information from major local cinema chains, "Chainsaw Man the Movie: Reze Arc" is scheduled to officially premiere in Hong Kong on Thursday, September 25, 2025. Hong Kong has also become one of the first regions globally to screen the film after Japan, allowing local fans to experience this annual blockbuster almost simultaneously. The global distribution for this theatrical film is handled by Sony Pictures, ensuring a wide release scale. As the release date approaches, major cinemas are expected to gradually announce screening times and pre-sale details, so fans should stay closely tuned.
Core Plot: Why is the "Reze Arc" So Gripping?
The story of "Chainsaw Man the Movie: Reze Arc" will directly follow the ending of the first season of the TV anime. The plot follows the protagonist Denji, who has become a Public Safety Devil Hunter, as he coincidentally meets the mysterious girl Reze working at a coffee shop while taking shelter from rain. This encounter gives Denji, who has always yearned for an ordinary life, his first taste of sweet teenage romance.
However, this seemingly innocent relationship hides deadly intentions. Reze's true identity is the "Bomb Devil" allied with the Soviet Union, and her approach from the beginning had a clear mission objective - to seize the Chainsaw Devil heart within Denji. When the truth is revealed, Denji faces a brutal battle intertwined with love, betrayal, killing, and heartbreak. It is precisely this intense contrast between ultimate romance and ultimate cruelty that makes the "Reze Arc" what many original readers consider the "god-tier arc," and its emotional impact and tragic elements are also what fans most look forward to seeing presented on the big screen.
Luxury Voice Cast and Top-Tier Production Team
To perfectly present this unforgettable story, the theatrical film brings together the original voice cast from the TV anime along with powerful new additions.
- Denji (CV: Kikunosuke Toya): Continues to voice our protagonist who is sometimes simple, sometimes crazy.
- Reze (CV: Reina Ueda): The versatile and clear-voiced Reina Ueda gives soul to this "Bomb Devil" who combines gentleness with danger.
- Public Safety Original Cast: Including core character voice actors such as Tomori Kusunoki (as Makima), Shogo Sakata (as Aki Hayakawa), and Fairouz Ai (as Power) will all return.
For production, the animation continues to be handled by the industry-leading MAPPA studio. Notably, the director has been changed to Tatsuya Yoshihara, who previously served as action director for the TV anime, indicating that the theatrical film's battle scenes will be even more spectacular and intense, with violent aesthetics expected to reach new heights.
Conclusion: One of the Most Anticipated Anime Films of the Year
"Chainsaw Man the Movie: Reze Arc" is not only the first work in the "Chainsaw Man" series to hit the big screen, but it also adapts the most popular and emotionally deep arc from the original work. With the Hong Kong release date set for September 25, fans' anticipation has reached its peak. Whether to experience the tragic "pure love" story between Denji and Reze, or to look forward to MAPPA delivering a visual feast that surpasses the TV anime, this theatrical film is definitely a cinematic event that Hong Kong anime fans should not miss in 2025.
