The announcement was made on December 29, just one day after the final episode of the anime adaptation was released.
While the cast is still a mystery, we know that the play, titled Chainsaw Man the Stage, will be performed in Kyoto and Tokyo in September and October 2023.
Originally created by Tatsuki Fujimoto, Chainsaw Man follows a young man named Denji who becomes a devil hunter in order to pay off his dead father's debts to the yakuza. After falling victim to a plot by the yakuza, he merges with his demon dog Pochita to become Chainsaw Man.
The manga was originally serialized from 2018 to 2020, with Part 2 also coming out in July 2022. Fujimoto's other recent projects include one-shot manga titles Look Back, Goodbye, Eri and Futsu ni Kiitekure.
Produced by MAPPA, the highly anticipated anime adaptation aired from October to December 2022.
