| THIS IS A MANGA ONLY DISCUSSION POST. DO NOT DISCUSS ANYTHING BEYOND THIS CHAPTER. ---------------------------------------- Awesome first start, I loved Fire punch for the most part, ignoring the ending. Holy shit though I'm surprised this is even allowed in a shounen magazine let alone shounen jump. Going to be following this until it ends, and I hope this gets an anime one day. |
| Denji is a dreamy boy, sentimental a bit, with a sad childhood. And the doggy that sacrificed himself for the sake of D. - that was so cute /// |

| Great start i'll stick with it for a while |
| huh, this look interesting. a complete meal everyday maybe and with no debts now, mc's life not counting his job for now seems a bit better. |
 |
| Art looks nice, same for the story even if it's quite shounen cliché |
 |
| really really great art. I'm liking denji. |
 |
| Good guy Denji just wants his toasts with jam considering his pretty miserable situation. He's already likeable in my eyes. Toasts with jam rock. Oh, and there's also the girl. Looks sus. |

| Alright, I'm hooked. I love the gore and the art is interesting. Is that woman the infamous that everyone wants to get stepped on by? XD |
| --AbiSa-- |
| This is some good shit!! |
 |
| Thought I would re read this because for some reason, I keep getting intrigued by this. Looking back to this chapter and I have to say, this has insanely good art. Denji really cutting it rough too, too much people treating him like shit bruh. |
| I was just gonna read the first chapter the. Wait for the anime but dammm that was a incredible first chapter. Wow I already hooked. I guess I’m gonna read the rest now |
| If there's a hole there's a goal-Master Oogway |
| The grunge art really is a spectacle and a bit gore driven but not too much so. I wanted more just Denji and Pochita adventures *sob* |
 |
| The art style is just amazing *imitates chef's kiss* Also shit got from 0-100 real fast lol. There's so much gore in the first chapter, I wonder how the anime will be. Well MAPPA is the production house so I am not worried. They'll do it in a splendid manner. |
 |
| Outside of maybe the Shibuya arc from JJK, I can't think of any Shonen Jump series that has gotten as much hype than Chainsaw Man. So many people I've seen on social media singing this series praises that I just had to give it a shot at some point. With the anime on the horizon, this seems like the best time. And already I can see what they're saying, this is a pretty strong start. Denji is pretty quickly established as quite a likable main character, largely through his relationship with Pochita which is super adorable. The art is really strong, far more visceral than most Shonen Jump series already. The chapter's also pretty well-written with all the callbacks, the double contracts one between Denji & Pochita, and all the ways Denji's dreams come true at the end, from the hug to the bread with jam. |
| I tried to be as patient as possible. But, this is it. I can't wait any longer. The first chapter was really good. The art style is really good as well. Pochita so adorable... |
 |
| Finally starting this. It's interesting so far. Denji seems like an interesting character. There was a lot of gore and the artstyle is decent. I'm confused is Pochita dead or has it become a part of Denji? I'm guessing it's the latter. Guess I'm gonna read a bit more. Overall this chapter was a 3/5. |

| Finally got round to reading this, this is a great first chapter. Definitely made the right choice starting this manga today |
| Pochita's design really reminded me of this tool from Junko Mizuno's "Pure Trance" manga https://imgur.com/a/gEzvgV2 I wonder if it's just a coincidence or not |
| A refreshingly brutal, quite compelling start. I've heard many good things about Chainsaw Man so I finally picked it up. I need to confess that this is the first (complete) manga chapter I've ever read; so while I've watched ~4,000 anime episodes (+ some movies) in terms of manga I'm a complete noob. I've read western comics / graphic novels since I was a little kid, but not manga for some reason. The reading from right to left took some getting used to but I read the first 3 chapters in one sitting. Pochita is a very kawaii little demon and Denji is quite an unlucky guy. Or is luck irrelevant and he's been suffering because he just cannot say 'No'? Denji's father owed to the yakuza, he committed suicide and Denji got saddled with his ridiculously high debt. At the end, as was to be expected, Denji died and merged with Pochita. Thankfully the yakuza goons he owed to also died, along with their repulsive oyabun :) |

| A very interesting start. The way his character is portrayed is very interesting. It went straight to the point. This is gonna be an interesting read |
 |
| I read first volume and so far i enjoy it but those nowadays MC's getting wierder and wierder |
  |
| Reading the coloured version. A pretty gore-filled start. I wonder if it will reach R:Z levels of gore. Lets see if where it goes. |

| Decent enough premise, if a bit rushed. The artist really loves screen tone. The lack of depth and detail in the background of some panels makes the art feel a bit empty, but I'm hoping that'll improve. |
| Wow, what an amazing first chapter- the art, story, world, and characters just seem so interesting. |
| This is so bizarre but right up my alley. |
| So that's how Chainsaw Man starts...DAMN. Out of curiosity I wanted to see how it started because I'm waiting for the anime and...WOW. I liked it quite a bit. |
| Well the Chainsaw Man anime's gonna be airing this fall, so I figured why not read the manga? Denji's a character with so much potential and I've already taken a liking to him. The art's awesome too!!! I can't wait to read the rest of this manga!!!! |
| Same reason as many recent readers, I'll read Chainsaw Man before the anime airs. From the first chapter alone, we're introduced to our protagonist, Denji, a guy with an outrageous level of debt, all from his now-dead father. No parents, relatives, material wealth and only his body long with his devil friend, Pochita. The only thing he could do is sell his organs along with the labour to pay off his debts. Even still, despite having nothing besides his dreams, he is killed right off the bat, all diced up. From here the Chainsawman is born... A human-devil hybrid with a purpose, and now, a proper occupation. Wonderful first chapter, it's a powerful introduction to Denji and his hardships are clearly displayed to us, we'll see how he journey through his life starting from rock bottom. |

| The anime is just around the corner, why read the manga now?? Well simply put, I'm not really a manga reader so I've never had the experience of reading a manga beforehand and seeing it come to life in an anime; and now's my chance to do that- no real reason to of course, other than I just want to feel what it's like. And to do that I'm going to do it with one of the most hyped up manga of all time, with an adaption that looks as though Mappa is going to knock it out of the park. And I know I'm speaking way too early... but judging from this first chapter alone, this could be my favourite piece of fiction ever. It's getting late so I'll just pause for now, I'll probably read the 100+ or so chapters in a day when I have my day off. Again it's too early to tell, but come on it's one of the most popular manga ever, I think it's safe to say that I am at least able to get the hype now. And I do; I fully get the hype. |
