Chainsaw Man chapter 166 will show Denji and his companions reaching the sushi restaurant that Fami had suggested in the previous chapter. However, given that Katana Man suggested taking Denji to a brothel, the author might show others following his recommendation.
Supposedly, Asa will oppose Katana Man’s suggestion and remain adamant about taking Denji to a sushi restaurant. In any case, an argument between Asa and Katana Man can be expected, while Denji continues to feel hopeless and worried.

Chainsaw Man chapter 165 recap: Denji loses hope
Chainsaw Man chapter 165, titled “Everyday Scenery,” shows the aftermath of Denji’s request to eat sushi. Asa and others board a train with the protagonist to take him to the best sushi restaurant after Denji finds himself saddened by the body of a Pseudo Chainsaw Man.
While Fami and Nobana discuss the best sushi restaurant they could visit, Denji hopelessly sits in his seat. He asks Asa why she wants to fight him, and Asa tells him that fighting him and winning will help save Denji’s life. This prompts Denji to ask if Asa is being brainwashed, which flusters the latter. She asks Fami to explain the situation to him.
Fami explains that their motive is to break Denji’s contract with Pochita and replace his heart with another one. This will let him live an ordinary life. However, Denji seems suspicious of Fami and turns to Asa for reassurance. Asa affirms that Fami’s heart is in the right place, which is confirmed by the fact that she helped her rescue Denji.
The protagonist goes on to ask Asa what she means by a “normal life.” Asa replies that an ordinary life will encompass returning to school and having a home to live in. She adds that he might also find Nayuta back and cheers him up by telling him that Nayuta must be safe under the police’s protection.
However, Denji seems hopeless and tells her how he used to eat toilet paper whenever he got hungry. According to him, returning to a normal life seemed like a distant dream, but Asa replies that she will help him restore his previous life and vows to save him from his misery. The chapter ends with Katana Man mocking Asa and Denji for whining about their situation. He suggests they take Denji to a brothel to help cheer him up.
