problematic/possibly irredeemable characters they could never make me hate you because me liking you is not a reflection of my real life morals + isn't synonymous with me excusing your actions

I think we can all agree that Pochita isnt actually the chainsaw devil and he is the fear of something bigger

So:

Pochita is a primal fear, but not an obvious one like pain or mutilation.

Pochita is the fear of being forgotten. The overwhelming thought that your existence, your entire being, doesn’t matter.

Now yes, I agree that doesn’t seem like something every human would be afraid of on instinct. and you’re right, it isn’t something you’re born being afraid of.

But Devils are different from humans. Their entire being is dependent upon being remembered and feared, making the thought of being forgotten something they fear more than anything. The thought of being powerless would drive any Devil mad. Which is where Pochita comes in.

While humans would instinctively fear the dark or falling or fire or loads of other things, demons would instinctively fear the only thing that would be permanent to them, being forgotten and without power.

This would also explain his willingness to save anyone who asks for it, he’s protecting the people who’ve been forgotten about like denji. It also goes without saying why this ties into his ability to erase the name and existence of anything he consumes since he’s making the world forget them.

Overall I think this is a really good reason why Pochita is so powerful when chainsaw’s aren’t a universal fear. Every Devil knows and remembers the rev of his chainsaw as he’s a primal fear for devils, while humans don’t recognize him and misname him, as he’s not a fear ingrained into their subconscious like to devils.

The other Theorie besides this that I like its that he is the love devil, the fear of love, because devils are born from fear and hate and he erases them with love but I cant really think of other reasons so I think I will go with fear of being lonely/forgotten.
