Already seeing people complain about this chapter on Twitter. Do they not realise that this is a fast paced series?

Animated, this whole chapter could be less than a minute or 2.

Part 2 is a slow burn, which is more Fujimoto’s recent stale. I do think the dialogue has been a little repetitive lately though.

As for the chapter, amazing double panel spread. Seems like Yoru may be beginning to like Denji too.

I though that the horsemen were stronger then primordial, but seeing what falling said, I guess not. Falling is just such a cool devil, probably my favourite primordial so far.

Poor guy though that Denji and Asa ran into, he gonna die next chapter

Woah.

Yoru finally realizes her feelings for Denji and DOESN'T want to turn him into a weapon anymore. Character development!!!! This is what I've been waiting for this whole time!!!!!!!! She can find a new meaning to her life instead of hunting down Pochita!!!

But now. She's stabbed in the head. And Yoru/Asa is not a Hybrid like Denji, she can't heal from a wound like that so easily... Something horrible is about to happen.

One of the two girls is going to die and I'm certain that it's going to be Yoru. I've also been predicting this the entire time. She's going to sacrifice herself to save Asa OR something fucked up is going to happen with Death possibly reviving Yoru after the fact, but Yoru is transformed into a beast that will attack the two of them, sort of like how Yuko transformed after she was first revived by Death. That's the other thing I've been predicting this entire time is the fight with Chainsaw Man vs. Yoru's more powerful form...

I'm horrified to find out what happens next and I think I can wager as to where it is gonna go.

Oh shit Yoru took a direct hit to the head. I doubt this is where she’ll die but that next chapter is gonna be interesting.
People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime.

Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait.

Take me back to the days before MAL became infested with Twitter's favorite buzzwords.

Well dang it, Yoru got a headshot with her own weapon. This Falling Devil is just way too damn OP, how do you even beat that thing? the only way is having Denji eating the crap out of her I belive so they have to stop her movement, probably the Octopus guy can use his tentacles to stop her, then have Denji start munching away at her.

I don't think Yoru is dead. Fujimoto doesn't kill Asa and Yoru just when things are going well with Denji (If Yoru dies, technically Asa would die too).

It’s not a slow burn. It’s literally trash writing… Why? You would have no defence for what feels like 100 chapters of nothing until finally something happens but contradicts Denji’s whole character arc every sub arc within this part.

Let people complain because this series fell off a cliff after part 1.

@Confused_100 it’s okay young man. You are still to young to understand emotions and depression. You keep playing with your Lego in the corner, okay?

Part 2 has had arcs that are S tier, on par with the last 3 arcs of part 1, being Falling Devil and most recently the Aging Devil arc.

Part 2 does have its problems, for example I believe we have way too many characters that still haven’t been properly fleshed out and we still have no idea what’s happening with them, such as Yoshida, Katana Man and Quanxi and we have forgotten characters that we haven’t seen return with no mention of them, being Reze and Kishibe. However it has also given us some of the best characters in CSM, being Asa/ Yoru and Nayuta.

Part 1 is about the Chainsaw while Part 2 is about the Man. Seeing Denji’s constant state of unease, self-deprivation and depression, and trying to overcome it is great to see. Fujimoto is a writer who cooks over a long period. Goodbye Eri and Look Back are “one-shots” but are basically a whole volume. We are very much at the beginning of something new here in this arc so let the man cook.

If you don’t like Part 2, sure that’s fine. But there is no need to comment and reply to my post to be an attention seeking brat. Just keep it to yourself or post your opinions in a review or on Twitter.

Let’s play a game. You technically said nothing of value for part 2, except Asa which is the only saving grace of this part. There are no and I repeat no S rank writing in any way in part 2 or any writing quality as part 1. And I dare you to say one that is even comparable to Bomb devil arc is part 1. Yeah that low of a bar even.

Part 1 was both about chainsaw and the man. Except if you believe him winning against Makima and what he felt towards his friends and his depression are all chainsaw related not man related…

Part 2 Denji has been all over the place and not in a good writing but retreading what he went through already in part 1. Him not wanting to be chainsaw man anymore, done that already and faster in part 1. Him losing a loved one, again part 1, even the literal arc of him just remembering his lost friends shows how bad Fujimoto couldn’t achieve what he did before. He is just retreading old ground. Btw now Denji grows a conscious with no previous indication that he felt anything bad or even hints is plain trash writing. Fujimoto knew Denji was assassinated character writing wise in part 2 and thus tried to make him empathetic which ironically ruins his character more in the process. Fujimoto doesn’t know his own characters anymore or what story he wants to tell.

And you said the thing: one shot mangas. That’s his strength. When a series he writes for too long, it becomes TRASH.

Btw bro, I read Full metal alchemist, Berserk, and reading vinland saga, omniscient reader and even one piece right now. All of which are actual peak and S tier writing. CSM part 2 is just JJK final arc kinds of writing, where things come from nowhere for shock value with very hidden sometimes good writing sprinkled in.

Also Fujimoto is more trash because he ends most of his chapters now with shock valued cliffhangers. And trash writers do that when they know the interest is low and readers are becoming more aware of how bad it is becoming.

Now your turn, will you actually say something of value other than “this is good” without specifying a good logical reason behind it backed with proof?

@Yuki_Niji Don't push it bro, the Aging Devil arc was a joke. Part 2 was good only until the Falling Devil arc; the rest is a dragged and uninteresting set of loose plot points that either don't pay off or are forgotten, with some good scenes scattered here and there.

It's also weak character-wise, with the only decent new character being Asa. Yoru is awfully undeveloped, adds no substance to the story, and gets in the way of Denji and Asa's relationship with those shitty ecchi scenes. Nayuta is a huge downgrade from Makima and died before getting any meaningful development, not to mention she was extremely spoiled and annoying.

Also, it's a fallacy to say that "Part 1 is about the chainsaw and Part 2 is about the man." Denji had plenty of personal development in Part 1. He does have a lot of introspection in pt. 2, but very little in the way of progress and is still making the exact same mistakes as in pt. 1, and now Fujimoto seems to be retconning him to care about strangers.

"and now Fujimoto seems to be retconning him to care about strangers."

probably one of the silliest manga takes in history. 'damn i can't believe fujimoto made denji feel bad when directly confronted with the life that he took, what an awful retcon! this surely has never happened before!' MAKIMA JUMPSCARE!!!!!

hrmmm i wonder why this specific death would impact denji so heavily... i certainly dont remember there being any overarching themes of familial guilt in part 2... surely..........

- war devil : on 2nd thought , i would rather not . denji is my pillow / my dild0 . if i turn you into a sharp weapon , then i can not use you as a pillow / a dild0 anymore .

Yoru changed her mind not to turn Denji into a weapon? That's so sick. She is listening to Asa, but moreover she is blushing. Denji making sacrificial demands, "Please then me into a weapon to lighten my sins." Readers would have loved to see a motorcycle. But, the author does not have energy.
