Based on the events of the Chainsaw Man anime, it does not appear that Makima is an evil character at this point. She is introduced as the highest-ranked Devil Hunter who meets Denji. Makima provides Denji with a prestigious job in Public Safety, as well as food, shelter, and an improved life. Despite referring to him as her pet dog, Denji instantly falls in love with her for various reasons.

However, it is eventually revealed that Makima is truly evil and serves as the main antagonist of the Public Safety Arc. Her kindness is merely a facade to blend in with humans and devils, particularly with Denji, the Chainsaw Man. While we won’t delve into the details to avoid spoiling the entire arc, one might wonder whether she is a devil or a human.

Thus far, it has not been revealed whether Makima is a devil or a human in the Chainsaw Man anime. However, chapter 75 of the manga unveils the truth that Makima is a Control Devil. As one of the four Horsemen, she embodies the fear of control and conquest. Remember, appearances can be deceiving. What makes her even more terrifying are her array of abilities and her Devil contract.

While she is virtually indestructible and cannot be fatally wounded, any fatal damage she receives is transferred to Japanese citizens due to her contract with the Prime Minister of Japan. It is safe to say that Makima might be the most powerful devil in Chainsaw Man.

Here are the abilities and powers she possesses:

Regeneration and Healing
Controlling Alive and Dead People
Mind Manipulation
Invisible Power Projectiles
Can Attack Remotely
