Kishibe The Gigachad
Never underestimate an old man in a profession where people die young
Example: Yoda
@@lightsab4675 tbf there's plenty of old jedi and they weren't supposed to be full-time fighters
fire
Maybe an old man that always runaway in a live and death situation
Cohen the Barbarian from Discworld can attest.
“Fuck thoughts that make me depressed” Man i love Denji’s mindset. That’s how he can still find happiness in the most shitty situations.
It's sad that he wasn't given the tools to understand his own feelings
That kind of mindset actually won't lead to happiness in the long run. It's good not to dwell in sadness but he just pushes it aside and never processes those feelings. It can lead to a pretty bad emotional crash at some point in your life.
What you are explaining is kind of a "toxic positivity", where ignoring unpleasant thoughts or feelings is treated like a good thing, but it can actually keep you from being introspective and dealing with stuff in a healthy way. It can cause you to dismiss true emotional expression. Denji's flaw is wanting someone to tell him what he should do in difficult situations, so that he never has to feel responsible for the consequences of his actions. It's why he has so much trouble setting bigger goals, and why he'd rather set very small goals that aren't that important or consequential, because failing at those goals wouldn't matter very much. Kobeni is very similar to Denji in a way, in that she does what she is told instead of doing things for herself, but she seems to absolutely understand that she is being used and put into very bad situations because of her "cowardice" or "passive" nature, and she blames herself for letting others use her.
@YoungBoyBetter11 I think what he means is spoilery so
@@Moon-wy2co it very much is
Kishibe's Introduction and the fight was so amazing!!
I love the deeper topics in this series. Denji really has no one who would cry for him right now. As long as he can eat and live he is pretty happy.
Aki crying hit so hard... it didn't even hit him instantly, he lit up the cigarette, and then everything just came flooding in..
These characters go through so much suffering and this is only the beginning of the series T_T
"Two years" ...really recontextualizes Himeno not wanting Aki to use the sword in the hotel - she truly wanted to spend as much time with him as he had left and she didn't want to lose any of it ;_;
Kishibe is 50+ and drunk like 150% of the time
Denji and Powy duo looking smart with the glasses is the best thing!!
power is a fiend but she has more of a sense of style than the other humans in this show 😎
operation - super smart
@@arielazaria4680 im so sad they didnt animate that panel
i know i’m late but it’s so funny bc i swear they put on the glasses because they thought it would make them smarter lol
Ok, so Kishibe said he was a part of Special Division 1, right? So he too got under attack during the gun assassination scheme. He is also always drinking. The implication here is that the man dodged a literal bullet while drunk off his ass, yeah I won't be denying his claim as the strongest devil hunter.
Whats even more impressive, my mans like 50yo, imagine what he could do in his 20s?
@@gerkadas you can look up how he looked like when he was young and spoiler alert: He's hot af 🥵🥵🥵
@@bulegele2128 ik man, i've read the manga. I've heard that young Kishibe was as strong as that eyepatch girl, forgot her name
Power's decision to say "Screw you guys,I'm going home" during the attack,only to cover her own ass by saying she was hungry is maybe her most Eric Cartman moment in the series,it's so funny. I like to imagine she was like Mac in that one Always Sunny episode about the storm,just sitting on the couch,eating ice cream and laughing about the massacre on the news LMAO (also around this part of the manga, Fujimoto explains in an extra chapter that although she's a huge coward,she WILL step on ants while screaming "BATTLE!" just to feel superior. The perfect woman.)
I really love the obvious parallel with the previous hospital scene of Episode 4. Whereas Aki pretended to be a hardass,but let his real intentions known by peeling the apples for Denji,him and Power don't even try to pretend they give a shit.
But on his way out Denji,for the first time,manages to empathize with him. And his inability to connect with the people around him breaks him. In a somber moment of realization,he even understands that he'd be able to walk off Makima's death. I love that scene of introspection so much,it's like despite being satisfied with the life he's been given,something in the back of his head is telling him that he deserves none of it,he's less than human.
...and then he just waves it off,because living in ignorance is so much easier than having to deal with your feelings. And that's exactly why he makes such a good hunter. And why Kishibe,with his alcohol-filled brain,is the best in the business,even when the graves of his fellow workers are in front of him.
But can we talk about Aki's breakdown? Fujimoto is just a master at these moments where no dialogue is used. If it wasn't clear by now,smoking in Chainsaw Man is a death sentence. It happened with the Yakuza in episode 1,then with Himeno,and now even Curse is telling Aki that his days are numbered. Fujimoto has the balls to say to the audience that there's no happy ending for this guy,but you'll still be crying when the inevitable happens. Damn.
One more parallel in the hospital scene is that,in the same way Aki told Denji to "speak in a more dignified way", Kurose here (the guy with the scar) speaks to him in a formal manner at some points,and at others he drops the facade and talks to him face-to-face to show how ticked off his self-destructive behavior makes him.
Another understated moment that I love is Denji and Power looking at the road in the night. It really shows that they're free spirits in nature,but the system has already made them believe,in one way or the other,that there's simply no life out there for them outside of the city. A town mouse should stay that,and never hope for something dfferent.
P.S.: Fujimoto tweeted out today that Himeno comes from the Aomori prefecture,the northernmost part of Japan's mainland...and it's a place well known for its apples. Ouch.
You know she wont read this comment right?
@Ratyuta It's fine don't worry,I know it's a long comment,not everyone has the patience for it! I just like talking about Chainsaw Man!
Don't worry I read it. Not all of us have short attention spans on the internet.🤣
Those first two comments are from literal children. Can’t think of any other reason a thirty second read would be so upsetting to them.
Genuinely loved your comment. It was thoughtful and rather insightful, especially considering the crazy amount of copy and paste “deep” comments going around on CSM reactions that offer nothing actually new or revealing to anyone with two brain cells. I’m a manga reader myself and I love how Fujimoto writes and sets things up, but even I wasn’t drawing comparisons to the previous hospital scene. All in all, it solidifies my long standing theory that Aki truly is the real heart of CSM Part One.
That apples bit hurts.
are u that same guy on reddit that made this comment?
God Denji and Power’s dynamic is so cute I love that he calls her Powy.
Mads Mickelson is a popular fancasting for Kishibe. Honestly uncanny. He is almost certainly inspiration for Kishibe's appearance.
Rohan kishibe?
@@yamete_kudasai6969 as much as I like a good jojo reference, no. The old man training Denji and Power is Kishibe, put some respect on his name
Not too fond of whitewashing but if the setting of the series were changed I guess I’d be okay with it.
@@lalalarose8197 If the setting was changed to America, half the cast would be changed to black trans-lesbians.
@@lalalarose8197 the author mostly made this for japanese audience, okay? they dont give a fuck about what the western audience says. At least, he was able to reference early pop culture and cinema.
Let's appreciate the added thought of Denji and Powy that "Smart = Wearing glasses" 😄
This episode shows how well-written CSW is :
- We usually hear that vengeance consumes the avenger and that is a path with no turning point.
- Aki is only motivated by a deep desire of vengeance and wants to kill the Gundevil at all costs.
- In his seek for revenge, Aki contracted with a powerful devil that litterally consumes the major part of his future trying to kill a powerful Gundevil follower...for nothing.
- Guided by his goal, Aki was not listening Himeno who just wanted to leave Public Safety with him to save him and to be with him.
- Himeno was trying to save Aki from this path without peace but died saving him from an imminent death...from a Gundevil follower.
- Now, Aki is now logically more engaged in vengeance than before.
- Denji, who is an opposite character to Aki that, says that vengeance is depressing...not a philosophical antithesis of vengeance but a very simple and true statement as a very little child would say it (in a less rude manner)...and that shows how vengeance consumes people.
Most of stories (mangas, movies,...) fatally depicts vengeance as a positive goal...or save the avenger and provide a satistying alternative goal to the avenger (that is still vengeance but a bit less violent).
Aki is a cool dark-haired and fake cold-hearted guy with cool powers motivated by vengeance because of a violent loss like in several well-known mangas...but his life is litterally consumed (2 years left) by his thirst for revenge.
This episode was really entertaining, loved Denji and Powy interactions lmao
The way you look at the "teacher" is exactly how I was when "smart" Power showed up. Power in glasses and a ponytail, hooooo boy.
6:27 This anime got Kenjiro Tsuda to say "daisuki da." 10/10, no notes.
Comments last episode: omg Denji has died 4 times already!
Me: Wait for it..
he's gonna rival Subaru soon
Denji: so how many times do i die?
Author-san: yes
diavolo:
My absolute favorite va. I get chills every time this man speaks.
My heart aches for Aki so much, my god. The animation was so stunning in this episode too. I think you're right about Denji, he's had nobody that was really important to him for a long time apart from Pochita. I don't think he's lost his humanity, I think he's just not got any attachments to anyone at the moment so of course he doesn't really feel much when they die. Kishibe and his voice actor are amazing I'm simping right there with you girl. I also can't believe we only have two more episodes to go now, every episode leaves me wanting more, what am I going to do with my life when it's over??? 😣
> I don't think he's lost his humanity, I think he's just not got any attachments to anyone at the moment so of course he doesn't really feel much when they die.
I'll miss Himeno for him 😭
Dude and then that inner monologue denji has after hearing aki cry. This is when he slowly learns the correlation between grieving and true love. The more you love someone, the deeper you grieve their loss.
Read the manga after the anime. There is an official colorized version, which is very rare for manga to get.
LOL the animation of aki walking in the end is ridiculous
5:51 is exactly the reaction I was probably most excited for with his proper arrival this episode, since you were so amped by his brief appearances earlier.
I read a comment on reddit about the apple which I agree on. The apple and the cigarette were shown side by side, indicating the choices Aki has: Either a healthy life (apple) when quitting the Devil Hunter Job or continuing to risk his life (cigarette) and potentially die even sooner. When he reaches for the cigarette, he made his choice clear. He was wavering when the cigarette fell out his mouth remembering Himeno but ultimately he didn't touch the apple. A healthy life with only two more years left to live isn't much to go for in his mind anyway I guess.
Denji and Power went 🤓 this episode
i love hearing your thoughts at the end of the episodes especially this one with the whole introspective thoughts denji has, these themes do progress through the story and i’m so excited to see your thoughts in the future
Chainsaw man just said we believe in gender equality, gave male viewers Makima and female viewers now have this fabulous specimen of a man.
milf/dilfsaw man in full swing
People somehow are being more down bad for kishibe than makima lmao
You mean the girls are being down bad for Kishibe while the men are still mostly down bad for Makima.
@@ayzalyohan lmao same
The women in this show so far have too many red flags. I'd sooner simp for Kishibe and Aki than them. (Although I don't think I'm at that point yet.)
@@Zeik56 they're the most grounded women depicted in anime. Compared to those harem women lmao.
@GraffitiTurtle I guess it's more that I find them more trustworthy.
Makima is red flag incarnate. Nobody else even comes close to being as sketchy as her. I wouldn't trust her to get me a glass of water.
Power is just a wildcard that you can only barely rely on until the situation no longer benefits her, then she'll ditch your ass. Any kind of relationship with her outside of being buddies in a harmless situation is highly likely to fall apart.
Kobeni is just a walking disaster.
Kishibe on the other hand, while messed up in his own ways, seems to channel that toward something worthwhile and ultimately beneficial. His tactic here is kinda fucked up, but he's not just doing it for shits and giggles. He's training them to be capable fighters that can survive what would otherwise almost certainly lead to their demise.
Aki is basically just a big tsundere. (Light on the -dere.) He pretends to only care about revenge, but he has the most genuinely good heart of anyone there.
Kon isn’t the name of the fox devil. Kon is the sound a fox makes, according to the Japanese language.
Those Aki scenes were heart wrenching (almost had me in tears). And it's sad that Denji, as you've mentioned, haven't formed strong enough bonds to feel empathy for anyone yet, maybe except for Pochita. But, at least, he is aware enough that something might be wrong or missing in his life. And considering the life he had, it makes sense. Can you imagine how heartbreaking it would be once he has formed those bonds with another person, experience that person's loss, and watch him start to cry for the first time without him realizing it?
It's a good subtle detail for Denji to be so deflective of his feelings, it tells so much about how he dealt with his past and how he does in the future ahead
*when kishibe deserves more fangirls than levi*
And will increasing.
watching anime and reading manga is always so exhilarating.
Denji has gone through tons of trauma his entire life, on top of not being close, people who experience that much essentially learn not to cry. Not by choice but if they didn't, they wouldn't get very far
I love Mads Kishibe Mikkelsen
The teacher (Kishibe) really told Makima to shut it
Ya gotta love Denji and Power combining their single brain cell together and coming up with a half decent plan xD
About the denji not crying situation, I think they're trying to tell that when pochita took over his heart, he lost his own heart in the process including his human emotions, that's why he was in that dilemma.
I dont knoe what to say but i came to saw your smile which give me a relief so thanks for making my heart flusterred so keep posting 💗
i think the apple represents 1 of his 2 choices, with the cig on the bed being the other. Apple: the healthy choice, cutting his loses and living for himself in his remaining time. The Cig: the unhealthy choice, wrapping himself in his past and thoughts of revenge, your literary guaranteed path of self destruction.
Denji death count: 1, 2, 3, 35, 49, 858.. I think we could forget about that after this episode LOL
denji seems to not feel sad or cry because his heart was replaced by pochita i guess
I believe the apple is symbolizing the fruit that gives the knowledge of good and evil from the Bible. Denji and Power have eaten from it but are in a state of being where they aren't really bothered about ethics. Aki has not partaken, which I think is indicating that his quest for revenge is overriding his sense or morality, like he's choosing revenge despite the ethical implications. Some vague support for that would be him ignoring Himeno's requests to go private and not being overly bothered by the letters. This interpretation is tepid, but I think fits a little. The loneliness idea is pretty good too.
Yeah probably, there is alot of really deep symbolism in chainsaw man from really stupid scenes. Like the denji eating cake.
fastest i've ever clicked on a video lol i know you love this man
Funny, I read the apple thing a bit differently. Denji chastizing Powy for running away, therefore no apple for her, but then leaving one apple for Aki, it sounds like he (Denji) unconsciously's sending a warning message : you only get one last chance for letting Himeno die. Which is enforced by the curse telling him he only has 2 years to live.
I like this guy’s style.
A lot of people don't mention this but it was quite possible that Himeno knew that Aki had very few years to live. That's also why she tried to get with him. To make him happy during his remaining lifetime
Kaiba being the king of Demon Hunters is perfect.
Well, never underestimate an old man in a job where almost everyone dies young
The ending used a technique called "rotoscoping," I think. In the past, actual film footage of something real was taken and, frame by frame, the images were drawn by hand. These days I'd imagine that a similar technique can be achieved through an AI using CGI over actual footage, though I'm just guessing here.
11:33 this is not the anime for you if you're expecting that.
Beware of an old man in a profession where men die young
those dogs in the ending are definitely real dogs
Denji was making those weird ass sounds because he got stabbed in the brain and was brain dead so he was trying to speak but nothing but noise was coming out lol 9:30
The fight with the Eternity Devil and Katana Man "surviving" the Curse Devil informed us that Hybrids are essentially immortal. As long as they have access to blood to consume or is able to rev their engine or have it revved, they can revive. It was why Himeno kept watch over Denji while he was fighting the Eternity Devil for three days straight instead of resting like the others. If Denji dies, she has to use the Ghost Devil's arm to rev Denji's chainsaw heart back to life.
TsudaKen is just too much, love him
9:24 man that's suck to see denji try to cry but he can't anymore cause he emotionless now 😅
My guess is the apple represent the normal life and moving on that Himeno really hoped for Aki, but instead he chooses Cigarettes that reminds him of the guilty from Himeno's death and all his trauma.
this episode was actually pretty slow - I read the manga but I actually forgot what happened next, lol - although once it started I remembered all the scenes.
Future devil contract : took smell and taste sense.
Me : Oh covid devil
Denjis mental and emotional growth is stunted at a child level of understanding. Thats why hes very basic with wants, almost like a child. He was never let to have a normal childhood, so his brain tries to be a child on its own to enjoy itself.
Denji and Aki are really polar opposites. Denji copes with detachment while Aki can't ever let go (which is why he couldn't give up on revenge even with the chance to live a normal life with Himeno). Then there's Power...she doesn't need coping mechanisms because she's the best.
The image of you falling in love with Kishibe is so cute. Honestly, as a guy, I didn't know that Kishibe would be so popular with women. However, seeing many female reactors admiring similar parts, I fully understand why they were fascinated by it. Thank you for your honest reaction.
Chainsaw Man Tuesday lets gooooooo!
I didn’t think about it till u said sumn. But I think if the apple represents something it may be him standing out from the rest of the devil hunters. Like “bad apple” but in this case “good apple”. Because we see that aki isn’t necessarily normal but out of everyone he seems to be the most empathetic yet is still willing to be a devil hunter. He cried for everyone who’s died around him. So I see it as he’s the apple that doesn’t belong at least in the same way everyone else does. And denji and power took the remaining of the apples while we know that they are where they belong as devil hunters.
Regarding the camera focus on the apple and its potential symbolism, I do like your take on it representing Aki's loneliness. Personally, I interpreted it as a symbol of his last remaining connection(s) in Public Safety - Denji and Power, because it's something that Denji specifically left behind for him. Kurose even asks "are you gonna eat that apple?" which could be taken by the viewer as "are you going to stay in this miserable existence to look after Denji and Power or will you live your last two years quietly in peace?" The camera also pans to the apple when Kurose says "you should take a closer objective look at yourself" and when Himeno's sisters walks in. It may suggest that Aki's true intention for staying is to preserve the bonds he has made with the people around him (the apple), and not his stated goal of revenge. This is probably something that not even he himself realizes.
i hecking looooove Kishibe
kishibe being the sigma and the main daddy of the anime
I think the apples are representing what Aki has left to give. He had a full basket, now he only has one.
Aki's situation is a pretty nasty sunk cost dilemma, in that while he knows Himeno sacrificed her life so he could live his - he only has two years remaining and the thing that spurred him to get into devil hunting was seeking vengeance for his family by taking down the Gun Devil.
Regardless of which choice he makes he will be disappointing someone.
Denji and Power truly share one braincell
*Ahh the welcoming hug, so iconic by Kishibe*
the future devil is literally me.
It’s a small thing but I’m really glad they didn’t just have Aki’s VA break out into an annoying, childish crying fit like almost all voice actors do. The subtle whimpering and the slow welling up of tears just make it hit so much harder.
Kishibe is "drunken master", never thought you will get this collab did you🤣❤️
Fun fact: One youtuber I'm subscribed to calls the scarface guy Mads Nickleson.
I love your reaction✨
From Japan
@@Garibald-i ？？？
His human heart is gone.. so he ain't feelin the sympathy and empathy for anyone, so he's all good for emotional pain.
Curse devil: *two years left*
Me: *ILL GIVE YOU ALL MY YEARS AKIIIIIIIIIIII LIVE FOR HIMENOO*
You may want to change that happy chainsaw man Tuesday intro,,, it’s nothing but painsaw man 🥲
Kishibe looks good because I believe he was modeled after mads mikkelsen
When your two remaining brain cell working together 🤣
Poor Aki :(((
That man is very powerful 0-0
Power and Denji are soo cute ^^
FUTURE DEVIL :0
SOOO CUTE ALANA-SAN :3 ❤️❤️❤️
As a manga reader i only reqlized that power really loves vending machines
"NO REFERENCES TO FUTURE EVENTS"
Hehehehe
only 2 more episodes :(
For now 😉
This blond devil hunter and Nanami from JJK need to be drinking buddies. And not just because they have the same voice actor. 😁
All Hail Chainsaw Man, love this show so much x
Huh, this might be the wildest Training Arc ever, except it’s more of a Mini-Arc.
Hm, the Future Devil, huh? I guess we’ll see what’s that going to be about?
kishibe look like mads mikkelsen so much¡¡¡
iirc, a few episodes back sensei encouraged Himeno to drink? Or she said he got her into drinking?
I might be wrong.
Who would win?
-Two semi-immortal beings with devil powers
OR
-An old man who likes women and booze
Kishibe gives off lethal amounts of dilf energy. 🤤
That dude is such a beast
I was watching this reaction at work and my boss sent me a message thru teams, I think I’m fired lol, we’ll see..
Man needs to stop giving Denji brain damage.
I feel you Aki 😭
Looking forward to girls down bad reaction to Yoshida in the future
DENJI POWY AKI ❤️❤️❤️
Man... I loveeeeeeeeeee Kishibe ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Did we hear anything about Kobeni?
Have you ever watched the anime "86"? I think you will like it.
hehe, told you
