A Playful Moment on Stage: The "Reze Dance" and "Smug Face"

During the event, various past theater gifts were displayed on stage. Seeing the popular Reze acrylic stand, Ueda remarked on how cute it was and how much she wanted one. In response, Toya placed the stand on his palm and struck a "smug face" (doya-gao), drawing waves of laughter from the crowd. Ueda then playfully teased him by asking, "Toya-san, weren't you doing the Reze Dance earlier?" Toya shyly confirmed, "I was indeed allowed to perform the Reze Dance," causing even more smiles among the fans.

Chainsaw Man follows the story of Denji, a young boy living as a Devil Hunter with the Chainsaw Devil, Pochita. After dying while trying to pay off his parents' massive debts, Denji makes a contract with Pochita and is reborn as Chainsaw Man, a dark hero with a devil's heart. The movie Reze Arc picks up immediately after the final episode of the TV anime, following Denji as he is captivated by a mysterious girl named Reze and swept into an unpredictable fate.
