Now, I don't like putting anime in races they never wanted to participate in, but do you think that this anime is the best battle-shounen there is so far?

Many people are hyped for this, it might crash the internet again, it might cause other huge deals. Hell, this was even hyped af before the anime.

What do you think?

If you've read the author's other works you'd know he's far better writer than other shounen writers. They're not even on the same tier as him.

Goodbye Eri is his best work and if that gets adapted as a movie after CSM, goodness gracious...

i personally think jjk is better, but as of right now jjk is also much further along in its story than csm. i do think the shibuya arc and the jjk0 movie are better than what csm has put out so far. that said, i've been enjoying part 2 of csm so far and i like the structure of this that fujimoto has set up. i think it has a lot of potential and obviously the csm anime trailers are killing it. also, i think fujimoto's one shot stories have been unreal so i definitely believe csm has yet to hit its peak.

tldr: jjk is best right now but csm could easily surpass as part 2 progresses.

Pretty much yea, the only battle shounen that I know can match CSM is probably JJK with it's fight choreography, it might even surpass CSM if only JJK is brave enough to put on some gore aspect to the art. Other than that idk, I haven't read that much battle shounen manga

Yeah, I’m not used to people adding on to OG threads/titles. Cause I’m 100% sure I just saw shounen, but who knows, I could have just read it wrong.

I would say that it is barely catching up to jjk, very close. Both stories are amazing, nothing can be predicted, and the story just goes without giving any absolute fuck who dies for the betterment of the story. Though why I'd say JJK is better is because it has already many chapters in it and there isn't really a moment where it is bad, while that also goes the same for csm without the many chapters in it. But I would say that csm could potentially surpass that in the near future since even with only 100 chapters, it's fanbase is already that huge. The only downside I find for JJK is that it has too many characters in it since we're constantly hopping back and forth to each character every fight, though probably that's just me personally. While for csm, it being very much experimental shounen is both an upside and a downside since there may be some parts that may not be to the liking, but all I've seen from that is just the upside.

No it’s not, even now that Spy Fam has an anime it’s still less popular than Chainsaw Man and it sold a lot less before the anime. As a matter of fact, Chainsaw Man is the most popular manga globally right now cause it currently has more readers than even One Piece on Manga Plus

"Battle-shounen" bro (ik he edited), still "one of the" best battle shounen. Although, it's subjective about which one is better, so i won't say anything about that part. The one you enjoy more is better, personally. (CSM for me).

Didn’t see the need if I didn’t like the few chapters. If you looked at my manga list you have seen that I have dropped no manga because usually I don’t put things that I’m not interested in.

I never said Chainsaw man was bad, I said I prefer Spy Family, that’s consistent and accurate with what I said, no?

That makes no sense, you don’t need 100% knowledge of something to not enjoy and like something over it. I don’t really care, but the argument is bad because you can have preference of one thing over another without reading the whole medium.

All I said was preference, which is what OP wanted, not what you want.

jjk is far better with battles,power system and the plot in general,i would say,

Power system? Not when it's a derivative of nen, so HxH comes on top spot (especially, in power system). The ranking system from Grade 4-1 & followed by Special Grade is kinda meh (even Akutami himself told us to ignore the ranking at one point), then there’s Special Grade 1 which is exactly the same as Grade 1 power-wise but sounds like it could be above it. There is more to when it comes to "power system", although that said, JJK is indeed great and one of my favs too.

Well,disregarding the ranking stuff,the powers are really cool and intricate.
