It honestly undermines Denji's struggles and presents him in a way unfitting of everything he's had to overcome to get to where he is. Disappointing but I anticipated this would happen so I'm not surprised.

Should have used 2D on a big hype shit like this one. I was close to vomit while watching the Denji vs zombies fight... This makes me feel like Ajin and Ex Arm are on the same level as this one. Production go brrr

great adaptation of the manga, while i'll have to get used to the cgi, i loved the way they brought in the cinematic feel fujimoto has in his manga. Only thing really missing is the darkness and blackness if you can call it that from the manga, but i realize this is very hard to do with cgi and in animation in general (and make it look good)

4.8/5 episode

What a phenomenal first episode. The animation and art style is genuinely perfect, the OST is wonderful so far, the pacing is great, I loved the door tease at the beginning. So excited for the rest of this

Stumbled upon chainsaw Man randomly a few years ago, i loved it immediately. The first episode is definitely a great introduction the this series, and i loved the soundtrack and adaptation the anime made. If you're an anime only, please look forward to this anime! It only gets better and better. O futuro é pika!

It's hard to write anything worthwhile since this was so goddamned overhyped and considering this thread already has 17 pages you probably overanalyze the episode from top to bottom. With all that, I kinda feel that the first episode was just ok. There is nothing to complain about. Also, there was nothing that blew me away. Since I didn't read manga I can't compere it to adaptations. I guess I'll go episode from episode and make final judgement at the end. I will say one thing though. I am so fucking glad they didn't shy away from the gore.

I really love Fujimoto's manga Chainsaw Man and this first episode of the anime is just amazing. The Opening "Kick Back" fit so well with the start and the episode is so loyal to manga with some good power up.

This was underwhelming for what I was expecting. People had been hyping the anime for months like Redditors did cyberpunk (but Redditors have too high a standard), but it doesn’t feel too special. The manga was special, this anime has no sparkle.
