| Edit to simplify what I want to say: "Stop underestimating the Chainsaw Man manga and let people enjoy the anime and try the manga for themselves and don't criticize it just because it's popular" As a big fan of Fujimoto Tatsuki and His way of writing and his unique style of narration Since the publication of Fire Punch I've been looking forward to watching Chainsaw Man's trailer since the end of part 1 of the manga and the announcement of the anime But after the trailer was shown, it seems that as a result of the manga's popularity, a lot of people suddenly appear who don't know who Fujimoto Tatsuki is and what Chainsaw Man really is, and they start to underestimate the manga just because of its fame or because they are a bunch of stupid people. Well someone like Fujimoto Tatsuki doesn't really need me to testify to his brilliance or his unique style It is well known among almost all mangaka in Japan and among all manga lovers and many of them have testified brilliantly His style has also influenced many other manga It really saddens me that so many people don't really know Fujimoto Tatsuki and don't understand his style They underestimate Chainsaw Man which is one of the best Shounen Jump works in the last 20 years, and this is not just my personal opinion, but the opinion of the Japanese fans themselves. I recommend to many new people who don't know who Fujimoto Tatsuki is to read his previous works, read Chainsaw Man and try to understand his style. It's really sad that a manga like Chainsaw Man is treated this way by people who don't understand it or don't know what it is and some of them haven't even read it. And I don't mean that "people don't know as much as I do about this thing and therefore can't enjoy it as much as me" I actually said that because many new people underestimate Chainsaw Man and look at work superficially Also, I didn't mean to be elitist in fact I just wanted to clarify my personal opinion Edit: Well I'm so sorry for the people who misunderstood my words this is my mistake in fact I couldn't explain what I mean correctly but I really wanted to give this manga a chance or at least a chance for the anime before they start belittling this story |

AkkunIchinose said: Well since this is an anime I doubt most people will care because majority of people who watch anime will never really touch the original manga because they already know what going to happen. Even when the anime has not fully adapted they will probably just wait for another season. And it makes me sadder as someone who loves absurdity and philosophical themes of self-discovery. I'm really sad about what happens to this story. |

| With respect you giving too much credit to authors/studio Any work can claim to have something much more but it’s the creator jobs to be able to deliver it. If you need a prerequisite before going in a series probably should have make a prequel. If a series is much more about it with time people will come to realize it. Nobody doubting Oda for his world building, or Togashi characters. Before getting so defensive about it just let it run it’s course. |
| Sorry, but... who? |
 |
| We trying to gatekeep people's enjoyment of anime? Whether or not they know the original creator of chainsaw man or their previous works shouldn't detract from people's enjoyment, the fact that you do should enhance your own. I'm not sure what there is to be sad about here. |
| Is this a trolling copy pasta lol? Well fellow elitist you might want to back up that Japan thinks this is the best work in Shonen Jump in the last twenty years since the only actual data sales don't support that. Like I love CSM but I hope for your sake you aren't being serious. |

| Sorry man but this is a really pretentious take. It reads like "people don't know as much as I do about this thing and therefore can't enjoy it as much as me." |
| I’m sorry but it’s not really that deep. |

No, I didn't actually mean that Unfortunately to me and many others it seems, it's coming across that way. You've even said people will be superficial because of this. It's up to you if you want to or not but maybe clarify what you mean then. |

Well that's not copy pasta I actually follow a lot of Japanese Manga fan and reviewer Yeah that's anecdotal evidence sales wise it did good at that mid point mark and 11 million on 11 volumes is impressive but for global sales it has a ways to go. As for individual reviews that's hard to collect and there is a lot of anime/manga out there. Plus you are acting like the most sterotypical elitist trying to put yourself out there as being cooler than all these disgusting mainstream fans because you have read his other works or discovered it before it became big. I am just confused why? |
| who is tatsumi fujimoto? And I'm sorry but when I read a manga or watch an anime I only think about what I read / see, I don't think about who did it, what study I encourage, what year it is or the popularity. I will always enjoy or criticize whatever it is for what it is, not for who made it or where it came from |
 a wise user of MAL said: Just to clarify, adaptations should absolutely stand on their own |
if you really think Chainsaw Man is one of the best, then you should read Fire Punch, which is in my opinion, Fujimoto's best work to date. It's way more unhinged and artistically creative |

AMAN2410 said: Ahh... Cool. Like I recently started reading manga. Was planning to read Chainsaw Man but they announced the anime. If the adaptation is bad I'll read the manga. So I liked a bunch of chainsaw Man trailer stuff on instagram and now my feed is full of manga spoilers. Like which character dies how they die which character will betray who. And this got me really annoying. I know manga readers are hyped for the anime but they didn't even put a spoiler alert warning at the start. I highly recommend you to start reading or always see the original work because it translates more the author's way and believe me it will make you love the work more when you watch the anime. But it is your personal choice in the end |

Once I finish my current title.sI highly recommend you to start reading or always see the original work because it translates more the author's way and believe me it will make you love the work more when you watch the anime. But it is your personal choice in the end Enjoy reading Don't forget to check out some other really good work Have a nice time |
