Chainsaw Man isn't what it seems. If you haven't read the original series and only watched this season you might be thinking, ''It just follows all the other tropes in anime'' but soon enough it completely flips it on your head. For example Denji might just seem like a horny teenage boy who wants to cop a feel but that is completely incorrect. Denji isn't just a horny boy, he is confused, his whole life he hasn't had any proper human connection and has only been able to imagine what a normal life is, so when he gets that opportunity to eat good grub and even possibly get a girlfriend, he shoots for it. But nothing is what it seems for him. Denji doesn't understand humans, he doesn't understand himself. He lives life to fast as if it's his last day on Earth. The irony of him wanting to escape his past life just to be a pet for another person. I'd explain a lot more on why it is amazing but I can't without spoiling it. Oh and he can turn into a Chainsaw.
It'll bow your mind with insane plot-twists and world-building. I wasn't a fan of the beginning of CSM 'cuz it seemed a bit ludicrous and it took me some time to understand this unique world. After finishing the first vol, it was one of the best piece of manga I've ever got to experience. Top-notch quality.
Now, onto the first episode, I have to point out the wonky CGI fight was quite distractive. I thought they would only use it to an extend, at least for the first episode, but it felt over-used. Then, the OP was fire both visuals and music. And so was the ed. Then, the Cinematography, direction was very cinematic. So was the OSTs. Anyway, I'm looking forward to more CSM content.

This was really good ep, it had amazing animation and amazing storytelling. The voice acting was so good, I have been waiting for so long for this to come out as an anime so when it did, I wasn't disappointed, i was super impressed and so happy that chainsaw man is finally here. If chainsaw man keeps this up it can may be the number one show this year, but there is a lot of competition. Although this episode was amazing it wasn't perfect at any means, the cg wasn't that impressive and I thought they used way to much of CGI and I'm not that big fan of the 3d.im not saying that that it is bad but I'm saying that I was expecting better in the cg, and another think is sometimes in the anime the quality wasn't all that god it was like it was 720 but i had it in 1080 that was strange, I also wished the background was bitterer and cleaner and have better lighting I found that in some shots the lighting was a bit bland but over all I would give the first ep 8,4.

An incredible episode. We waited csm for almost two years and I've got to say that the wait was worth it. Incredible animation, like really really great, almost photorealistic. The soundtracks were incredibly accurate for the precise scenes. There aren't any censored scenes, so you'll see a lot of blood (chainsaw man is a dark manga, it has lots of blood spilling and characters die is really gruesome ways. Even though it was the first episode, it shows how Denji lived. He lived in a dusty and small shack. It shows how some people actually live, where they have to pay enormous debts and get constantly abused and mistreated by criminals. The opening was also really good, it has a lot of film references, like pulp fiction or Texas chainsaw massacre. As I said, I think that this is one of the best first episodes is all of the animes.
Chainsaw is one of my all time favorite mangas and seeing it get a anime made me feel free. The way they composed the episode like a movie is nothing ever done before in anime history. It was daring and it payed off. I've seen some complaints about the cgi and I would agree that in some scenes it did look off. Especially the scenes when he stands still in devil form. Other than that the cgi is the best anime cgi I have ever seen, it made the character feel real and life like. I also love the dark atmosphere the episode brought out and THE GORE there's not many anime where you can see gore in such high quality and detail. I can't wait for more chainsaw and I'm hoping it succeeds in the future.
