While Chainsaw Man’s Denji suffers and watches life throw him everything terrible in its arsenal, his best friend, Pochita, is living his best life at the Met Gala.
The Met Gala has seen some rather unusual creatures walk the red carpet this year. Some themes fit the letter T, honoring famous fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld, such as Jared Leto dressed as a giant Choupette and Doja Cat dressed as a cat. Others appear uninvited, such as the cockroach that blew up the Internet when it appeared and unfortunately met a tragic end a few minutes later. Whether the Met Gala invited him or not, Chainsaw Man’s best guy, Pochita, served with the simple yet dandy look of a shiny sky blue bow tie.
Chainsaw Man fans praise Pochita as the best dressed
Although Pochita is not actually a cat and is said to be inappropriate for the Met Gala theme of “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty”, Twitter users have been highly appreciative of Pochita’s look. One outraged user commented: “Finally someone with real taste.” Some Met Gala attendees in previous years have been criticized for needing to understand the topic or dressing rather bland. Another Pochita was awarded with the compliment, “best view of the night!”
Creative Anime Fans Bring Their Favorite Characters to the Met Gala
Pochita is not the only anime character to appear. During the Met Gala and after, many fans showed off their creative edits: Chainsaw Man’s Asa, of course, tripped up the stairs, fell face down. The chic shape of the Trigun Stampede’s Vash debuted at the Met Gala with real-life partner possibly Pedro Pascal. Several characters from Jojo’s Bizarre Adventures also appeared at the gala.
It was heartwarming to see Pochita having such a great time at the Met Gala because Chainsaw Man author Tatsuki Fujimoto, who once ate his childhood pet, didn’t refuse to give him a quality of life. like in his comics. Pochita and his best friend Denji live together in a squalid shack where the two barely make ends meet as the latter has to pay his deceased father’s debt. Despite the difficult circumstances, the two lived quite happily. That is, until the two find themselves killed and dismembered by the Zombie Demon after the yakuza betray them. In his final show of love and loyalty, Pochita sacrifices himself to become Denji’s heart and save him, hoping the boy can fulfill his dream.
Chainsaw Man is available to stream on Crunchyroll. The next chapter, Chapter 129, will be released on May 9.
