The Ultimate Good of Chainsaw Man, so far.
Chainsaw Man is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Tatsuki Fujimoto. The franchise of now has The Ultimate Good, Pochita.
Potential Candidates for The Ultimate Good[]
Denji[]
He is the main protagonist of Chainsaw Man, and despite being an anti-hero, it never crossed his mind on harming innocents instead protecting the world from demons, as of now he cannot qualify as Ultimate Good for now due to having several corrupting factors like willingness to let civilians die, and his heroism are driven more by a desire to live a normal life than genuine altruism. However, he does grow to deeply care for multiple people, such as Nayuta, Power, Aki, Asa, and Pochita, feeling massive guilt for Aki and Power dying even if it was due to Makima's manipulations, is usually courteous to women, and almost always does the right thing in the very end, making him one of the most admirable characters in the story. He might also shed some or all of his corrupting factors by the end of the story.
In addition, even though he may appear dumb due to his brash demeanor and being manipulated by various beautiful women in Part 1, he is actually quite intelligent battle-wise as he and Power nearly defeated Kishibe during their training, and he was able to outsmart Makima by taking advantage of how her powers worked and inadvertently finding a loophole in her Devil contract with the Prime Minister. Lastly, he is one of the most powerful characters in Chainsaw Man as he has a contract with the titular Chainsaw Devil. As such, he still has a chance of qualifying as The Ultimate Good by the end of the story.
Asa Mitaka[]
She is the main protagonist of Chainsaw Man Part 2, performing various admirable acts such as saving Yuko from the Bat Devil, protecting and doing right by her cat Crambon to give him a better life, pushing away Denji to protect him from Yoru the War Devil, and chose not to kill Yuko or Chainsaw Man when it would have heavily benefited her to do so out of care for their lives. She also cares for animals (cats especially) in general and feels guilt for things Yoru did as they share a body, and has a genuine desire to not inflict violence, in spite of her wishing death on others. While she does have corrupting qualities such as jerkishness, lack of social skills, she is autistic and her outward apathy does not mitigate her actions which are done out of a genuine desire to do the right thing as she always considers the consequences of her actions. Also, she is prone to believing others' lies, such as with Yuko's warped sense of justice, or Fami's lies on killing all devils for a better world, if these lies are under a facade of good intentions. This can also be linked to her desire to do the right thing. In fact, because of her selfless actions and heroic intentions she is arguably considered the most noble character in the manga, closely followed by Aki. As such, her arc is still ongoing so she has a good chance of qualifying for The Ultimate Good by the end of the story.
Close Contenders for The Ultimate Good[]
Kishibe[]
He is responsible for training Denji and Power to become better Devil Hunters, and was of a higher authority than Makima, making him resistant to her control techniques. While he can be brash and has staunch views on devils as monsters, he is noble as he genuinely wants to protect Japan from Devils. Since he is considered the best devil hunter in the world, he has a great deal of influence and admirability even if it is offscreen from spending decades protecting Japan and presumably training new recruits. However, he fails in admirability to Denji, Pochita and even Asa due to their onscreen heroism and fails in influence to Pochita due to his status as "Hero of Hell" being known across the world.
