I haven’t read it but for people that have is it good enough to want an adaptation it seems interesting but not a fan of light novels so I’d love to see an ova or something before season 2 airs what do u guys think

Only two chapter have been translated, chapter 1 can be adapted before season 2, but chapter 2 is a story involving quanxi so it will be a spoiler for season 2.

It's not worth adapting. Most of the chapters just rehash jokes and interactions from the manga instead of expanding the characters.

("most" because I haven't read the last chapter yet)

Nah, Chapter 2 was peak character development. But yeah, I agree with this statement regarding chapter 1.

I don't want to open a discussion just for this, so I'll leave my opinion here for anyone who bothers to read.

Chainsaw Man Buddy Stories, at first, seems like just a generic spin off, created to make extra cash with fanatic fans desperate to have everything Chainsaw Man, or Fujimoto related in their collection.

But it isn't.

The first and last story are the most akin to a spin off that you'll get from this piece of work (and they're still fun and interesting in their own way), because the rest is a literal expansion of the CSM universe in the form of a novel. Especially the second and third stories are peak character development and I wholeheartedly want to someday see these two animated somehow.

This volume, next to the manga itself, makes me genuinely believe that the CSM universe literally exists inside fujimoto's head in constant motion and that he can, anytime he writes something related to Chainsaw Man, just take a small part of it and put on the paper for us to appreciate.

This is what I would call a REALLY good writer and that's why he's my favorite manga author. If you're a Chainsaw Man fan and, specially, a Fujimoto fan, I would suggest you to read this one. You won't regret it.
