Now you listen to me, and you listen to me well.
The chainsaw man erases NAMES.
It's the names that disappear from the past, present, and memories.
So it's just understanding that has been altered.
Makima wants humanity to be ignorant. That's why it's called the worst possible peace.

You're wrong, it erases the concepts. Read the official translation.
Angel Anderson
it's gonna be the worst possible peace since the threat is that even death is erased.
then everyone is stuck with whatever Makima makes, forever.

This proves, speedreader-kun, that the concept of something gets erased along with its physical existence. If the hunger devil was eaten then people would stop going hungry, and would forget about the concept of hunger, etc.

And just because I need to walk through what she's saying
>Makima says the names of seven things
>The things were feared just as much as the Devils that bore their names
>But only Makima remembers their names now, because Chainsaw Man ate them (their Devils)
>Makima describes three things without applying names
>She says "they've" ceased to exist and she can't recall "them"
Now let's look at that last part with "they" and "them". She remembers the concepts, but not the names, because it is the NAMES that have ceased to exist. She says she remembers what she remembers because she can control nearly anything and witnessed Chainsaw Man fighting their Devils.
Devils = Physical manifestation of fear = Names = Concepts
Concepts =/= Reality
Eating the Devil removes the concept from the human consciousness, and we lose the ability to perceive it. Things don't exist just because we perceive them, but our fear does. By removing our fear, it takes away our perception of the concept.

Ethan Morgan
You make it sound like humanity CAN relearn it. If we lost the ability to perceive numbers Numbers Devil, as in the ability to count and quantify things, that does not mean that reality ceases to exist because everything is in numbers. It means we no longer have the capability to perceive things as amounts, quantities, or numbers. There are things, and the idea of having [x amount of] thing becomes impossible for us to perceive. It's not just "learn it again", it's like we're becoming koalas, having our brains smoothed over so that we're literally incapable of thinking of certain concepts.

god this plot point is so fucking retarded
is it ever foreshadowed?

I guess the Communism Devil wasn't killed by CSM
Since the USSR and China are still around

>all of these once existed and were feared every bit as much as the devils with their names
what is "these" referring to if not the literal entities?
Landon Foster
This. Exactly.
Sebastian Thompson
The history was changed - USSR still exists in the late 90s, the bomb devil hybrid wasn't that strong, cold war situation with no nukes ever mentioned.
The whole thing was just...off. Not explicitly.
Jason Brooks
How is it retarded? It explains why there aren't any nuclear bombs in the CSM universe.

The official translation explicedly says " names".
You just got stuck on your initial interpretation and are trying to read it into a text that doesn't support it.
Benjamin Russell
Do you remember last year when we all tired to tried to understand the fucked timelime? Well, thats your foreshadowing
William Rogers
I waited for the oficial transltion before assuming shit like you two faggots, the difference is that you got proven wrong is still trying to force it, the other faggot is probably just laughing at this point.
Gabriel Gomez
Their names. She was able to describe their concepts, so it's clearly not those she can't recall, but she describes them rather than using names like the other things she mentions at the beginning. Notice she's talking about names in the lines leading up to where she says they've ceased to exist.
Isaiah Bell
I actually don't remember
maybe he also deleted my memory
spooky
what the fuck are you talking about
Evan Russell
I dropped this 40 chapters so how does being chainsaw devil give such an ability?
