    The best episode so far.

    This episode was absolutely amazing. They perfected everything - whole animation, action, voice acting, everything was supported by top tier music and to top if all of, an awesome ED.

    I've watched a good amount of anime and nothing has got me hyped up as much as this show. Tuesday has become my favourite day of the week lowkey. This is one of the first animes that I'm watching as it's airing (also watching some others that are airing currently) so it might push my hype for it and opinion, but it still does it the best.

    Every episode so far was great, especially episode 8 where things went from 0-100 real quick, but this episode still somehow surpasses it. I've rewatched the highlights of it at least 10 times (which is basically the whole episode let's be honest) and I still can't get enough. 3 episodes remain in the first season and I can't wait to find out how things unfold.

    *SPOILER ALERT FOR THIS EPISODE* Also wanted to highlight some things that just happened. From katana man slicing Denji in half, to Makima obviously surviving and then absolutely annihilate everyone while doing it so elegantly lol and then Kobeni going full psycho Super Instinct on katana man and Sawatari (love her character so much). Such an astronomical spike in power and it all lets your wonder how many more crazy things are we gonna see.

    Instant classic, 10/10 :)

    Perfect

    9.5 imo this episode really crazy, Makima power was really terrifying!!!!! The music just make this even more crazy..... wondering what will happen....

    Sometimes I just sit here and let my thoughts wander like little clouds drifting across a lazy summer sky. There isn't always a clear direction, but that's fine, because not everything in life needs to have a strict purpose. I might think about the taste of coffee in the morning, the sound of rain tapping gently on the window, or the random memory of a conversation I had years ago that still makes me smile. Words flow without much effort, almost like water finding its own path. And before I notice, the page is already full.

    Good animation. Beautiful graphic.

    The storyline is interesting which makes it even more interesting when the animation of this anime is very good. The fight scene, the characters and the atmosphere really immersed me in it. For voice actor(Jp). At first, seeing the new voice actors in anime, I thought it wouldn't look okay but they actually approached the characters very well. Story contain violent content. Those who are not comfortable with violent may need to skip this anime. But if not, it's another anime that's worth to watch and follow.

    The characters design is very good. The more I see it as anime, it give me a lot of hype.

    HOLY.... MAKIMA AND KOBENI!!

    Yeah these two characters were the center of two of the most memorable scenes in this episode! This episode was PURE INSANITY! I felt like i popped at times! The adrenaline from the previous episode is carried over in this! I was in the edge the entire time!

    Denji vs Katana man was EPIC! The use of Ending 3 here was great! This episode was for me, the most gory thus far... there is a lot of blood for reasons i could never have anticepated! I was blown!! I will never view Makima the same way again! Kobeni also earned my respect in an instant with that scene! Just wow

    Soundtrack in this episode was also really solid! The fact that the entire ending was animated by one person is amazing!

    Chainsaw man has BEGUN! I cant wait for next tuesday!
