The fight with the eternity Devil was intense, and it lasted 3 whole days?!?... That's insane, Denji is really incredible for that. Interesting how the Eternity Devil ended up helping Denji, because of how much blood Denji was able to get from it, making the fight really last for eternity if necessary.
I was not expecting Denji to find the Devil's heart in all of that mess, and that the Devil would just give up, but no, he really was capable of just searching for the heart, and slice it.
With that done, it seems like Himeno started to develop some feelings towards Denji, due to how crazy he is, because she was blushing at the end of the fight. Also, we got to know why Denji will be an amazing Devil hunter, because the Devils will be afraid of him.
This 1st part of the episode was epic I must say.
Then, we got a party with the whole unit, and I got the confirmation I asked before. Some episodes ago, I asked if Denji was really a minor, due to how brutal episode 1 was, and how sexual the characters were being with him, and althought he didn't surprise me, he really is only 16, the magic age for Shounen anime, it's either that or 17. We also got to see more of the other 2 rookies, that are a bit older than Denji.
Although this moments was wholesome, especially with Denji not wanting to kiss Himeno in front of Makima (it was really cute), it got really disgusting fast, when Himeno kissed Denji, and with that kiss came a barf...
THAT WAS SO DISGUSTING, LIKE, OH GOD... Poor little Denji, not knowing he would eat other's vomit... But why did he swallow it though? I didn't understand that, since he ended up vomiting all that after.
This scene was certainly something I wasn't expecting.
It was interesting to see how Makima knows something that others (including Denji) don't about Denji. I wonder how does the contract with Denji and Pochita work, and if there's something we don't know. Although Makima seems like she could really be faking it all, I just end up really liking her character.
On the other hand we have Himeno... I understand why so many people like her, but in this episode I found it disturbing when she seemingly got more excited about Denji when she heard he was a minor... That was really weird for me, since it's clear that the other characters thought he was older. Not only that, she ruined Denji's 1st kiss, that seems like he wanted to be from Makima, and vomiting inside his mouth was just disgusting...
The worst was the end of the episode, when she took him to his house, and he was still not conscious, and she just gave him a kiss (with beer, which she was worried he had drink before, at the dinner), and she just offered him something that we still don't know, but it's heavely implied it's sex. The thing with this is that, besides Denji being a minor, while it's not uncommon for these things to happen, in this specific case, Denji is not like other teenager boys, because all through his life he lived alone, only with Pochita, away from the society, only trying to survive, not having any opportunity to get to meet other people like now, so, in a way, he's more vulnerable in that regard, and it seems like Himeno is taking advantage over that, and I don't like it.
Also, it seems Himeno just wants to show him she's better than Makima, because she's jealous that Denji and Aki have crushes on her...
The end of this episode really left me disturbed, how did they just let Himeno take Denji to wherever she wanted?
Let's see how all of this will turn out in the next episode. I wasn't expecting so much sexual tension in this anime honestly xD
I didn't really like this ending though, the animation was great, but didn't vibe with the song, but it's only the 2nd ending, out of 7, that I didn't like, so...
Also, I'm already more over than half of the anime, and there's still no 2nd season, which means Chainsaw Man is starting to get close to a finish :(
Despite what I said now at the end, I'm still enjoying the anime a lot!
Edit: Forgot to mention 2 things:
1 - Since I haven't watched anime in quite some time (Chainsaw Man is getting me back to watching animes), I think I'm already not use to these sexual jokes in anime. But my point still stands that the scenes with Himone and Denji were disturbing.
2 - I still wonder since episode 1 what's the importance of that "door" that the anime started with, when (probably) Denji was opening it, seemingly in a bad shape. This door also appears in the opening. I though this was the door to the exit of the place Denji was killed in episode 1, but the reality was that he didn't even reach the door in that scene, like they showed in the first seconds of the anime, and the door was also different, so I guess the first seconds were foreshadowing something that will happen much later, maybe in the end of this season? I wonder what though, since it seems like Denji was really in a bad shape, and if I'm not wrong, right after opening that door they cut to a scene with Pochita, so maybe that has something to do with Pochita. |
