Yoru's entire objective from the beginning was to get Chainsaw Man to vomit up nuclear weapons, but somehow forgot along the way and only became interested in turning Denji/Chainsaw Man into a weapon. Since nuclear weapons have somehow made a return, and looking at Denji now, does this mean everything Chainsaw Man has eaten has now been freed?

War weeping at the (re)birth of nuclear weapons is some strong imagery, I'm terrified to see what Yoru will do with that back in her arsenal

incredible that it's something humanity just, naturally recreated out of desperation to take on devils and its first use is still to destroy other humans. We're Really in it now

I think it's more that humanity can repeat what it did earlier. By eating nuclear devil mankind forgot nukes, but they can still discover them again. Plutonium and uranium still exist, just the knowledge of how to make them a bomb is gone.

I’m confused. Did denji un erase nuclear bombs after being killed or did Americans discover nuclear bombs for the second time? The fact that they say it’s the very first time being used and it’s against the Soviets makes me think it’s the second
Its both I believe. You can sort of imagine humanity unknowingly slowly moving towards the recreation up until the point the concept of nuclear weapons was freed from the stomach zone back into causality.
Reminiscent of cosmic horror themes.

We're still not completely sure how Chainsaw Man's eating/erasure power works, particularly in this case where he ate (?) the Nuclear Bomb Devil (????) in the past because humans can just rediscover nuclear bombs. I don't think he changed nuclear physics at all when he did that, even though he has eaten bigger, more supernatural threats that didn't come back.

My guess is that Pochi didn't actually eat the Nuke Devil. Instead, someone or something altered either time/reality to temporarily undo their invention, or altered humanity's perception, causing them (and by extension, Yoru) to forget nukes still existed.
