@@HaydrogenBomb Spoilers The last few chapters have been dealing with Denji's hypersexuality and how it's basically ruining his life.

But if you don't know Asa and Yoru's whole situation this explanation might be even more confusing.
(No Spoiler) Idk why they cut this part of the manga but it explains where the Gun Devil hit and the death toll. It just shows the sheer power of some devils in the series. As well as showing how fast and strong the gun devil AT BIRTH is Japan: 26 seconds, 57,912 deaths United States: 124 seconds, 548,012 deaths Canada: 7 seconds, 8481 deaths Hawaii: 0.4 seconds, 780 deaths China: 37 seconds, 316,932 deaths Soviet Union: 210 seconds, 155,302 deaths Mexico: 2 seconds, 6,088 deaths India: 15 seconds, 29,950 deaths
One thing I love about Chainsaw Man is how comfortable it is with being uncomfortable. It's easy to imagine a version of the story with all the edges smoothed out - Denji's big horny mitigated via implication, Makima's abuse left more for imagination, Himeno's coping mechanisms played only for laughs, Power doesn't reek etc. It's equally easy to imagine everything being so exaggerated and stylized it doesn't read as "real" any more, like a cut to chibi Denji nose-bleeding all over the place when he sees Makima or her manipulation being super over the top villainous. But Fujimoto isn't interested in any of that, instead he's digging for some kind of raw humanity that is both familiar and repulsive, admirable and pathetic
I was always fascinated at the fact that Makima gave Denji a glimpse of what he wanted and set a goal for him, and then as soon as she has Denji interested, she immediately takes what she has given him and starts talking about what she wants from Denji, which is for him to defeat the Gun Devil. It says so much about Makima without explicitly saying anything.
It's how you train dogs to be entirely complicit. She doesn't punish him, only dangle the next reward. It isn't loyalty, it's blind devotion to a superior
I really like how Power and Denji revert to their sibling dynamic without ever bringing up their awkward moments in the beginning. I was beginning to think that this show was just gonna be another harem-situation, but thank god that's not the case. Usually, the world is bending over backwards for the male MC, but here it's almost like he has to constantly face reality when it seems like his "dreams" are becoming true (-> "The Taste of a Kiss").
The idea that one day, the Nuclear Weapons Devil will be born terrifies me to my core and that’s probably why it’ll be born. Every Devil in this world is Roko’s Basilisk.
I had the same feeling when I visited New York City for a highschool trip. We got to a meeting point and they said “welcome to Time Square! See you back here in 6 hours” and didn’t even notice I was in time square until I looked up. Just seemed like an irregular street area before looking up at the famous signage
Chainsaw man is partly inspired by FLCL and its seen very clear in the the relationships between the male protagonists and older/ more experienced females
This was the episode where I kinda fell off the series. I've seen clips and read some of the manga, so I know most of what happens next (in part I), but I realized this wasn't gonna be for me.
@@HaydrogenBomb the most mature response to a series not vibing with you. I just waited fir the anime to see if different a medium could make me see why people love this instead of forcing it
@oyamampendu9467 You get it. Some things just aren't for everyone, and it's important to recognize that just because something doesn't jive with YOU doesn't make it bad. I may not love this series like most of everyone else does, but I see the appeal and can recognize the production quality on display here.
Some people have different experiences and mindsets on things like that. I don't know her's but not everyone is comfortable with things for their own reasons.
I understand Montana because perverse situations and objectification is very much a tired trope in anime. I get the eyerolling exasperation. This show is good enough that it can be over looked though
15:49-16:39 I every time I see this part, I can't help but think of that old Simpson's episode; Where Bart caused a huge explosion of beer, as an April Fools prank. Lou: That sounded like an explosion at the old Simpson's place! Wiggum: Forget it! That's two blocks away. Lou: Looks like there's beer coming out of the chimney! Wiggum: I'm proceeding on foot, call in a Code 8. Lou: We need pretzels! Repeat pretzels!
I know its not everyone's piece of cake and im not really into overt thirst in shows either but its a shame the show seems to be... too much in that area for Montana.
No hate on you guys of course but you two always kinda “check out” when sexual stuff is shown and I get it with other shows where there’s no point but that’s the opposite of chainsaw man, I just hope you two sinking it in and feeling the emotions of the show
What? The Grand Canyon is actually amazing in person. There are many other places that don’t necessarily live up to the hype, but that’s not one of them. Truly astonishing to see in person no matter how many photos you’ve seen. (Still enjoy your reactions though. 😜👍)
@@LettsReact I saw it the first time at about eight years old, along with a bunch of other great places (cliff dwellings and more)… when I saw them again at eighteen, some of the places seemed much smaller to me than when I was eight… but The Grand Canyon felt like it was even vaster than I remembered.
The Wife is not feeling this one, its a shame because its so good but if you can't get past the lewd stuff it can mess with your experience of this masterpiece lol
hi, I love your reaction 🥰 one thing I know is that this is an American thing, but Kubeni's voice actress may be good in English but in her original voice she is anxiety personified. I don't think the voices in English are bad, but there are things you miss without being the original, like ALL migth's mannerisms and ALL-for-one's overwhelming voice...
I'll be honest. If you're this upset over Denji being a teenage boy who acts like a teenage boy...you're gonna have a bad time. Chainsaw Man is raw and unapologetic. It's not for the easily offended.
While Men are more likely to be accepting of Denjis desires(because cmon most of us all remember having a phase like that, and despite their adult side trying to tell them theyre too mature for that 😂), women are the ones who tend to be the most fun to watch react to this side of the anime because of how off putting it can be for them. For women who are more uncomfortable about pervy stuff if they can make it to at least episode 7 that's what tends to hook them.
@@DingoEnderZOE2 It's not like after episode 7 Denji becomes some virtuous, pure-hearted protagonist. The manga is at chapter 167 and there's still "pervy" things happening. It's fine to not be a fan, but it's a bit annoying to constantly moan and groan every time a character touches a woman's chest. It's gonna happen. Accept it and move forward or watch something less offensive lol
@@DingoEnderZOE2 The anime follows the manga. My point is that the story overall isn't going to suddenly become politically correct to the easily offended. People who genuinely get upset about it (like Montana clearly is) shouldn't watch it. Nobody enjoys watching someone whine and moan over every little thing. CSM isn't for everyone, and that's okay.
@@Tyhar93 the ANIME shifts gears dramatically from the pervy stuff at a certain point that was MY point. Why bring up the Manga when we are literally ADDRESSING the anime on its own?

Imma be honest: this was where the series lost me. I've seen clips from the rest of the season and further in the manga, but I could tell from the Makima and Denji scene that this wasn't for me.
I mean it's good to figure it out early. That is one of the least 'scene' there is, so if that dissuades you, good. Everything only gets darker, more violent, and is "torture porn" (not literally) made by a an author who i can only describe as a madman lol. But that's what makes it unique.
