The worst thing about this show is that all of the best parts of the story happen later on so season one is mostly just set up for future greatness.

[@jambott5520]

The first season is the set up and the first twist. The set up being showing you the world and all the characters. Spoilers below The twist being, that no one is safe. Anyone can die, to the point that when a devil says that aki will die you believe it. With that first twist and the foundations all being there, the series goes buck fucking wild. It has a similar progression to attack on titan, it starts out simple and you think its just gonna be a silly goofy action series where everyone dies, but nothing serious happens. Then you get half way through and suddenly shit gets fucking real and fast.

Funnily enough, most people wouldn't actually say the main selling point is the action. I'm so happy we did get the god tier action though, just another brilliant part of the show. There's two reasons most people hold the show in high regard. One is the author's storytelling, the way he uses framing, how accurately his panels portray human emotion, his use of irony and symbolism. The other is the plot! It's very Tarantino-esque, not simple at all in my opinion. I'm glad that the first season stuck with people (but imo for different reasons to the manga) because they're in for even more wilder things in the future.

[@thebest3702]

Yeah if I'm being honest I feel like the action wasn't as big a deal in most eps than I had expected.

Agreed as well The actions are actually quite brief, and even tension building isn’t as long with lots of intense build up all the time like most shounens, not that they aren’t intense nor meaningful Instead it’s like a seamless rollercoaster ride that goes from going with your every day life, to deaths suddenly close to you And the subtlety and dimension of most of the characters are just top notch

As a manga reader without saying spoiler I can say the manga just keeps getting more nuanced and engaging lore wise, action wise, and from a character development standpoint. Mappa is very busy so if they are planning to be primary animators for Season 2 it's likely going to be a wait of about a year unless they have backlogged future content (animating further into the manga source material but need to fix up/polish). Half year waits to 1 year are standard for seasonal animes like this unless there are production or logistical issues. It could take longer tbh cause the level of attention they pour into the episodes is very demanding on a studio no matter the size.

The elephant in the room with CSM is that the vast majority of the content that people are super hyped about comes directly AFTER the point at which this 1st season finishes.

The best parts about chainsaw man is not the action, but the emotional beats. We got a taste of that this season, with himeno. But there are so many more to come.

I promise you, as long as the animation doesn't start dipping in quality, CSM will be regarded as one of the best animated shows ever. Every single arc is better than the last. Part one, or the Public Safety Saga, has 4 more arcs to it, with the International Assassins Arc probably being my favorite. The last arc in right up there though it's also peak

The way that Power's and ESPECIALLY Aki's backstories were worked in sequentially without feeling like it was pulling you away from the main story too much was so cool.

[@papasmjordeig]

I think the devil concept in this show is one of the coolest concepts ever, the idea that these devils spawn from human fear and take on a concept which will be their power. Like Makima explained to Aki, every devil is based on a concept, and depending on how much that concept is feared, the stronger that devil is. So as an example, people arent very afraid of coffee, so a coffee devil wouldnt be that strong. But what about the Darkness Devil? The Fire Devil? Space Devil? Hell Devil? Horror Devil? Such a cool concept that i think makes this story super unique

Which they could have just done a movie tbh idk why they didn’t do that. But it seems like they instead chose to do 12/20 season split. Which honestly is better imo. This is a better place to stop.

[@searchingformeaning1328]

Chainsaw man making Charlie laugh is something interesting, i remember watching Totally Not Mark's video about the manga, and he says that he doesn't laugh watching anime at all but with chainsaw man, he laughed tons. I think the "movie-like" approach and natural dialogue helps to give the show a natural humour too, sometimes is over the top but it never feels artificial or done just to make you laugh, is there as part of the story and the development of the characters. For example, Denji's goal to touch boobs is very silly, but it's used as a way to develop his wants, is there for the character to grow and change as consequence of his expectations being subverted. When season 2 comes i think people are gonna be even more surprised and engaged by fujimoto's storytelling, since this is the part where the story really begins to shift. Overall, i agree with the 90% score for the anime, I'm so happy mappa didn't disappoint.

This season really is an appetizer for what's to come but sets up great dynamics especially looking back at it. I really enjoyed that we got a unique ending for every episode, with great styles and music that I loved. They felt like the equivalent of the manga covers of CSM which are so colorful and abstract compared to the grittiness of the rest. It's a story that really grew on me and seeing everyone animated and lively is kinda surreal, which made me appreciate the calm and mellow moments even more. And the sountrack just fits so well and is right up my alley. If anyone is interested in more stories told by the author I cannot recommend Goodbye Eri and Look Back enough, they're short and a wild ride.

The crazy thing is if it keeps adapting the manga so well it only gets better

Gun devil arc is fucking tragic.

[@xavierortiz1294]

The appearance of a certain character at the epilogue of ep. 12 solidifies the fact that we're gonna get a season 2 and if we make it to the international hunters arc hooo boy, Its gonna be insane

feels so good he finally explained the comic on his wall i have been curious about it for years. 🦉

[@gatochick14]

As a manga reader, what the anime has covered thusfar is just the TIP of the iceberg. What's to come is even more balls to the wall insane and emotional.
