Denji lives in a world that is cohabited by devils who can take the tangible form of fears and phobias. Denji is a devil hunter, who later is killed fighting a horde of demons. But the 16-year-old doesn’t perish, rather his soul fuses with the powerful Chainsaw Devil, giving him the power to transform into Chainsaw Man at will.

His character, which is among the Misfit Class Demons, is ranked Daleth (Rank 4) and his familiar is a Split Wolf.

#4: Rody Soul from My Hero Academia: World Heroes’ Mission

Rody’s Quirk Soul, or superpower, is the ability to manifest as a small, bird-like animal named Pino (ピノ), who changes facial expressions based on his feelings, which is due to a link to his soul. Rody is also a resident of Otheon.
