The story is not as good as I hope(pretty straight forward not a single moment where I feel emotionally connected with the character as it is so fast paced for me to connect) but I’d be lying if is say that I didn’t enjoy this one still I don’t think the story is worth the hype but sure the actiontards are going to love this and anime community is filled with those action ehnthusiastics(as we can already see the ratings of demon slayer and jjk)

So what is your point?

We should not hype something we are excited about?

Considering jjk’s success after its adaptation I think chainsaw man may be a pop culture phenomenon with the right animation,voice acting,soundtrack …. For likes there are the colors but some people want to be cool and say it’s overrated, in fact, that happens a lot with mainstream media like aot.

What's the point of this post? Genuinely curious.

The anime hasn't even released yet, so how can one say if the hype is justified or not? Just cause you don't like something doesn't mean people can't be excited about it. Calling them "actiontards" is the same as someone calling you an "elitist" and writing off your opinion as useless as a result...

I didn’t say this is overrated I get the appeal of this anime but for me story is much more important than action and I think story is the weak point for me of this anime thats why I said not worth the hype in terms of story but if you looking for some crazy action it’s worth the hype

"The story is not good"
Bro you know that's a subjective opinion, not an actual fact. Just cuz you didn't like the story doesn't make you the absolute truth. Also idk why you wrote you're not invested in the characters right after saying the story ain't good. Story and characters are 2 different aspects of storytelling, not enjoying one does not mean you won't enjoy the other.

The pacing is fast due to the movie like nature of CSM, the author specifically writes all his manga in a film like style, like Tarantino movies for example.

I loved the story. And you're mistaken on one part, people don't like CSM for the action. They like it for the characters, art, world building, and crazy lore. Action isn't even the main focus of the series.

its like anything else. Theres more there if ya wanna find it, but if ya don't dig it then there's nothing for ya really. Honestly I loved chainsaw man more before all these dog barking weirdo's got a hold of it. Its a great manga, but I also hope the hype dies for it.

Cause honestly, OP has a point. When everyone's hyping the manga to be a 20/10, when really its anywhere between a 5-10 depending how it hits ya. Really screws with how any new person can engage with it. Bottom line, stop acting like a bunch of cringetards giving chainsaw man a bad rep.

Cause I think Csm is a 10/10 but I can also see how it could be a 5/10, if you all actually like the series, don't be buthurt that someone aint into it.

the story is great, no filler, and very off-beat as far as modern shounen goes. sorry mans, i think you've just got an unfortunate case of bad taste disorder. the hype is totally justified if they adapt the manga well, and this is coming from someone who usually doesn't care for shounen or action-oriented anime. it genuinely has the potential to be THE shounen to beat going forward, it's just going to be a matter of MAPPA doing everything they can to make it a better adaptation than Dorohedoro was.

Thats what the majority thinks and I don’t have problem with that I just share my opinion and stop getting triggered with it by saying bad taste when it’s clearly a subjective thing.

The most recent anime expo, it was said that CSM will have added anime only scenes to flesh out the characters a little better with the emotional scenes. I’m sure they will add this content without interrupting the flow and feel of CSM.

I wouldn’t even say the action is the best part of CSM. The characters for me are the driving force of it. The story is simple but effective and it’s got some underlying messages that can be interpreted in a few different ways which people love to discuss. The action is just icing on top of that

Don't act surprised that people are turning on you in this thread OP. You made a clickbait title to bait CSM fans into reading your post, only to then criticize it and question its popularity, obviously, this would have never worked in your favor.

agree with u. I'm reading the manga and I think characterization is weak. I didn't connect to them or felt sad when they died. It's too fast. I like it cause it's interesting and have so much potential, but from building up the emotions and being fast, no.

ha guess what I expect from the people who watch anime.

This has to be bait, but I'll bite. You shat on other people's taste by calling them "actiontards" when you're guilty of the same thing with AoT. You criticized CSM and berate others for not being able to digest your opinion, but can't handle criticism of the series you like.

If you think calling actiontard is an insult than what can I say to you I myself is an actiontard and when did calling ‘you have AOT in fav or jojo in fav’ or it’s better than AOT and jojo or you rate AOT 10 become criticism
Ha criticism my ass.

And just for info this is all my opinion i did not criticise it that’s why I used ‘I think’ in opening post.
Now fck you all weebs who don’t even know the difference between opinion and criticism

I’m not going to reply anymore I’m done with this.
