- remember when they leaked that zutomayo would be doing the opening theme and everyone got pissy lmaooooo
- they cut the muscle devil fight, but whatever I guess. If I were a mappa Animator, i would be happy to see my family that week.
- kinda makes for some plotholes. Why is the udon soggy if they just got it? Why would Denji think Makima is a bad person? Also the muscle devil fight makes Denji feel like he has sunk costs in the public safety division already.
- Makima is very mommy in this episode ๐Ÿ˜
- nice CBT torture in this episode. Bike bell sound effects lmaooooo
- introduction to Aki and Power, babey!!!!
- are they animating every ending theme or not?????? Who knows.

1. Udon is soggy because he fell asleep and woke up later, rewatch that moment
2. Denji would think Makima is bad because she would treat him literally like a dog in the first minute
3. Yes, every ending will have different songs and animations

Makina scares me a little (looks good but also very bad) I honestly don't like the MC very much (not bad but nothing exceptional)

I noticed there was a scene missing. I'm pretty sure while Denji is eating with Makima, Makima tells him to kill a devil. Weird that that scene didn't make it to the anime.

Aki and Power are introduced and once again, I am impressed with the VAs. Denji's ultimate goal is to touch boobs, the perfect self insert character since he's clearly lacking a few brain cells. I can't wait for the multitude of CSM fans to say that Denji's shallow goal makes the series better and unique...

Unpopular opinion incoming: I hate this part of Denji personality. This is the part of Chainsaw Man that really turned me away when I was looking into it a while ago. Denji sole motivation being just to feel some boobs. No its not relatable. No its not funny. No its not cool or interesting in anyway. Its lame and really dumb and shallow. I don't know why the author would make Denji character completely flip around like this. We saw in the premiere that Denji had plenty of motivation revolving around breaking out of that bad situation and living a happy life. So I was always confused as to why the author dumped Denji down so much to just being a guy who wants boobs and nothing else.

I'm absolutely with Aki on this, Denji should get out of there if his motivations are that dumb. He's not built for this if that's his reasoning. Aki is spitting only truth but I'd bet money that people here and around the internet are gonna hate Aki for saying that and call him a hater.

Maybe its just cause I know what happens with Makima later, no spoilers of course, that I don't relish this situation a single bit. It makes my skin crawl seeing Denji grovel to her and him kick Aki balls over and over again for Makima. The highlight of the episode was definitely though meeting Aki and Power. Two absolutely amazing characters with actual depth whom don't resort to shallow motivations. Power showing how much of a badass she is thumping that sea cucumber devil with one swing.

I totally agree with that, it's disappointed how flat his personality is I really hope he changes in the future or have a decent character development.. I understand his motives tho if you look at the environment he used to live in..ppl treats him like garbage no education no social life.. what do you think is the result of all this? Ppl dreams usually are above their current situation, after all the sh!t he went through ..sadly this is like heaven for him..

Lmao aki is far from the best character he's one of the lamest.

Makima is the best and hottest character.

Have you even read the manga?I don't see it on your list. no need to agure with who's the best, that's subjective. I would say how I feel on Makima but then I'd spoil the whole series.


I don't keep my list updated don't have the time for it.

This was a pretty damn good episode. Better than the first, in my opinion. Now I'm defo going to stay and watch the rest. Now, I was hoping for Chainsaw Man to rip some stuff up, but this was more of a plot episode. If I were to watch episodes 1 and 2 together, it would feel right. There was enough that happened that made it worth the watch. I'm upping my rating from 7/10 to 8/10.

Power's blood ability reminded me of Kyoukai no Kanata.

Based on the "songs" section of the AniDB entry, it seems like we're going to get a different ED each episode, Katanamonogatari-style.

I will be surprised if someone still complains about the CGI after this. Damn, the shadows are so pleasing to see for some reason. Made me laugh a fair bit too.

I'm delighted to see proper ending visuals. Hope they keep pumping them out.



You can say that again. I felt similar about JJK in the beginning, but the anime totally sold me the unspectacular first couple of chapters and CSM is underway to follow suit. That said, rewatching or reexperiencing content usually allows me to appreciate it more.


In the long run, considering how well Fujimoto develops him, I can totally forgive all that in an overview. To me it's kinda like a similar feel I have for the first 3 tankobons for Berserk (much like the first 3 tankobons for CSM). It's only by the end of the third one that you actually start thinking "you know what, this character actually can go a lot of places and have some nice depth to him after all".

Berserk became a masterpiece eventually, and Chainsaw Man is at the very least amazing so far in, imo.

Imo that's part of the development, you know, going from only horny to friendship, paternal love, etc.

Denji's thought process was something that kept on amusing me in this episode. Having Makina simply offering him her coat and to pay breakfast for him was enough to have him fall in love with her.

He and Hayakawa got off to a rough start, with Hayakawa throttling him in the alleyway as a warning, but I'm glad that Denji got back at him with the almighty nutcracker, which he unleashed 3 times total to knock out Hayakawa. Deserved... XD

The introduction of Power was also entertaining, too. Considering who she is, her personality is very chaotic, but you can't deny how strong she was went she jumped off from the top of the building and killed the enemy in one go with her blood hammer. I think I like her more than Makima already!

This follow-up episode as a whole was great and MAPPA's production quality is still as consistent as ever, which is excellent. =)

Damn, it got by like a wind. Good episode, I don't like simps but considering how awful denji's past is I understand of his actions as he never had any experience with any women. In fact, he never even met his mom. But, damn denji is a savage, he literally destroyed the senpai's future kids before them even getting borned. Tbh, I don't like makima much but damn she has some huge melons. Lastly, power's ability to make weapons out of her bare hands is so cool. I hope the next episode doesn't disappoints.
