Himeno was a great complex character who made full use of her short screen time in the grander scheme of the story. Meti's video explains it better than I could ever without just repeating what he has said. A truly beautiful character.
@@aSSGoblin1488 True but I just recommend the video for those who might want to check it out. I watch Meti because his videos are hella entertaining rather than to understand the story I'm reading. Plus he even lists the origins of characters designs and names. So it's not just story stuff but writing and designing as well, and the references that make up the character as well from other popular media. Which is extra helpful for Fujimoto becuase he is NOTHING but movie references which could put people onto other types of media as well. Videos have other uses than just being expository recaps. So it was pretty dumb to establish that when it is pretty obvious.
Aah, finally Fujimoto shows what is best at. Introducing character, giving them characterization for a couple of chapters and then off them. I have a love-hate relationship with this kind of writing method of his. Because while on one side you keep the overall stakes high for the characters, since anyone of them could die at any moment, but on the other hand it becomes harder to make me genuinely care for the characters, because they get taken out of the plot too quickly or suddendly before or just as I was starting to establish a connection with them, making me just see their death as "Really? Just like that?". It's something that I felt happening a few times when I read another famous work of Fujimoto, Fire Punch. And I probably know I'll feel it in Chainsaw Man as well for some.
Thinking about it, it's the reverse One Piece for me. In One Piece, the deaths in the manga don't often hit me, because I know that often the characters will not die. While in Fujimoto's works, the deaths often don't really hit me because I know the characters will just die the moment I start to even think of feeling for them or even before I do so.
i agree too, but I feel like (manga spoiler ahead just in case) Aki and powers death don't have this problem at all, because we've been with both of them for most of the manga and because of that both of their deaths are a lot more effective because of that
It’s a bit unfortunate how he can’t actually immerse himself in the episode (first watch) because he has to pause for “reactions”. I know the Himeno scene would hit harder (or any other scene) if he would watch it on his own time. A job is a job, I suppose.
People fall over themselves just to give the appearance of having the moral high ground. I've watched so many reactors go full limp, "Himeno is a no no" but Makima is on the other hand, the shadiest fucking character I might add, is oh so conveniently ok.
*I just can’t understand Himeno’s devil. So you’re the “Ghost Devil” and this intangible being that nobody could touch but when asked to use your full power you reveal yourself now a physical creature able to get attacked? You was better off being a hand with a mouth attached…that was the most backwards ass moment ever lol*
For someone who’s been in the anime community a long time, and has been spoiled himself on occasions, you had to know that video title would be massive spoilers to anyone who hasn’t seen it yet lol 🙃
I love that KOL and his editor have conflicting opinions there's a narrative going on here
I agree with the editor more
Editor-san is one of us!!
Nah KOL knows what’s up, y’all are degenerates that need to find our lord and savior 😤 also makima has no ass
Love it when he roasts him too. It always make them so damn funny
Perfect chemistry
Us: Wow. This is a pretty nice cast of characters. We're gonna get to see them for a long time, right?
Fujimoto:
Us: *Right?*
Hit us with the 😐
*Himeno tries to sleep with Denji*
KOL: Nahh bro
KOL's editor: "SMASH HER DENJI, GET SOME MY BOY!"
😭😭😭
She a woman he is a boy
I was 24 last csm reaction and now I'm 64 with 2 grandkids, time flies
11:20 is just hilarious the editing is so dope
really sad its all over. aki didnt get to see himeno's sizable balcony or get to experience any of her sturdy railing
He didn't get to see her apartment either :(
@@phothewin6019 did the carpet match the drapes, though?! So many questions that’ll never get answered. :(

Yeah, a lot of detractors think the characterization of the cast is paper thin, but that's an extremely surface level take.
cool! but you don't need Meti i don't know him, to appreciate the absolute fatless writing of Himeno or her duality.

Even tho if her death didn't make you cry (which is understandable), but you can't deny that her character is well written
@@Soybean13 it's not supposed too
Author said so through Denjii

@@gybgbakass3216 They got to be the exception, since they were very main characters. But as for the other side characters...
4:32 Didn't notice how strong Himeno must have been to carry an unconscious Denji up all those stairs
Elevator

yoooo gotta love the editor man lmaooo if we can get asap because im sure KOL lost his mind for the next ep
Himeno will be missed! W character!
11:20 Ahahahahahaha! That editing! xD
Godly
i forget about this channel sometimes lol.
at least there's more chainsaw man and bleach reactions to look forward to
KOL's editor outing himself as having no standards
Lmao Goated af editing
Kol editor goated
Another banger of a reaction this time as well the begin with himeno and and kols reactions to katana man were the highlight of this episode
01:12 was heavy, Careful for reports!
definitely wasn’t expecting to see someone get their head cut off with a chainsaw in this video KOL
love it
That part with Himeno makes me so sad every time...
That cyberpunk show had me more traumatized then I thought damn that reference hit
14:06 best OST in the show hands down
I lost it @ 2:34 🤣🤣 brooo
“Jesus came”
Was it his second coming, because it definitely was mine.
yea, boi.
katana and chainsaw man are my favorite design so far because just *LOOK AT THEM!*

The Bernie Mac VO at 6:56 OMFG! LMFAO!
Beevis and Butthead caught me off guard bro that's a good meme
Why KOL in his thumbnail look like a White Woman clutching her pearls?
🤮
4:52 this wasnt even cgi bruh 😂 bro
That Skylar White and Walter White are Top Tier Brilliant Shout Outs, right there to Bleach
Hey KOL, thumbnail and title are MAJOR spoilers for anyone that hadn’t seen the episode!!!!
Love the video and keep up the great work KOL
Editor-san you are the 🐐 of all editors a visionary
Chainsaw man was like: "oh? You think we're like the other anime? Well okay then, here's a dead himeno"
Looper (2012)
If you know...well...you know.
Nightmare Fuel
that sonic reference! 😂😂😂
man KIngu videos put transformative in TRANS content!! lmao edits are off the charts! sonic!!!!!
In Chainsaw Man ... there is only one main character. Everyone else in this world is free to die ...
KOL is the only one who got the flicking sword😂
Katana devil said "Omae wa mou shindeiru"
This one had best ending song too
Katana man looks like a nightmare version of jotaro
What movie was that chainsaw chopping lady heads off from? I feel I've seen it before but cannot place it. 1:11
Texas Chainsaw Massacre, the newest one..
2:28 Why are you Gey! 😂🤣
We in here
I was expecting some reaper death seal talk.
himeno got that haRIZZment
i watched 4 reactions to this and the anime but this the only anime i noticed the finger flicking aki…
Love this content
More csm greatness.
Your editor is down bad, but has great comedic timing.
Where the isekai ojisan vids at man
Haven't busted my lungs laughing in a while
KOL put the 🏳️⚧️ in transformative content
Nah the bald head guy is not cgi. It's just the character design is too strong and you will think it's cgi
I’m glad I finished it before the title of this vid spoiled it for me
Why didn’t the curse work on the katana fiend
god I love KOL
Kingggggg we need ojisan from another world epsidoes 8,9,and 10 reactions
W editor
16:38
My brother in law just got me chainsaw man manga for me to read this past Christmas. Does this person really die? If so, thanks for the spoil KOL. 🙄😂
KoL. You REALLY shouldn't have put that spoiler. I was waiting till the show was over to binge it.
18k 1mo 23.6k subs
I nearly dropped csm cause denji was such a simp.
NEXT EPISODE FAST ⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩⏩ PLIZ KING 👑

yessirr
Where is the cyberpunk reaction ?

Probably because you can only touch the ghost devil if you aren't afraid of ghosts, since devil's get their power through fear.
Bro 😧
wheres bleach?

Take this L for this spoiler title
Can you not put spoilers in the title?
One piece reaction kingu oni chan
early gang
For someone who’s been in the anime community a long time, and has been spoiled himself on occasions, you had to know that video title would be massive spoilers to anyone who hasn’t seen it yet lol 🙃
Well that was a huge spoiler and an unsub lol
