A lot of things looked quite nice. The action sequences had many shots that looked weird or uncanny to me which was disappointing.

CHAINSAW MAN!!
The first chapter was very good. The animation was great. Let's see how MAPPA will do the next ones.
The soundtrack is promising, the opening is very good.
The first ending was made by Vaundy - "CHAINSAW BLOOD"
It was cool.

I was a little worried about the new animation style, but it seems like they've nailed it! Definitely one of the best looking animes i've seen.

having not read the manga, i must say i really like what i saw here. i think the artistic direction and storytelling are doing a good job at showing (what seems to be) the tale of a man and his best friend winning in life after hardship and sacrifice.

Pretty awesome. It adapted the first chapter really well. It was mad that a year and a half ago I read the manga but now I'm watching it animated.

Was a bit worried about the cg when I first saw it but my worries quickly vanished. Was incredible when Denji transformed for the first time. The opening is interesting, it's really chaotic. Looking forward to seeing how the rest of the anime turns out.

I've been looking so forward to this anime, and I wasn't disappointed one bit by this great first episode!!

The OST is quite good and really fitting too! Absolutely loved it!
Voiced Pochita was adorable! 💖 I found Denji and Makima's voice very fitting too!

I'm really looking forward to next week now! 😍

10/10!

Some gripes about framing and shot comp aside (particularly during the big fight) I really felt like they captured the things I love about this series.

Episode was more than I had hoped for!

Didn't dislike the CGI at all! Some of the scenes looked rotoscoped, no clue if it was but overall they looked really cool.

The OP and ED were both vibes as well, loved the episode!

So this is the new big thing, huh? Aside from a lot of money being thrown at it, it kind of failed to impress me. Yes, the surroundings and backgrounds looked gorgeous and the OST and voice acting was great. But aside from that? The CGI was wonky at points, the animation makes no logical sense (just saying, but chainsaws are no lightsabers) and the premise is pretty much as shonen as it gets. It works. Its there. But thats it. At least the main character is likeable, a plus in contrast to Jujutsu Kaisen for example. But overall? If this edgy gorefest is the future of anime, I'd rather go back to the past. Because this is at best mildly enjoyable.

The attention to detail in this animation is insane. Also, the atmosphere that the sound design and the tracks bring. And the opening, my god, I must have listened to it at least 3 times now.

Very very strong start here.

It feels like a faithful adaption to the manga thus far, and the color pallet matched the mood of the manga well. It's good overall, but I do have two complaints. First is that Chainsaw Man's head and saws are CG. It's not bad CG, but I'd prefer real animation. Second is the lack of a proper ending sequence. It is as of now just text scrolling over black. Some shows do wait a few episodes to establish the proper themes, but that does not appear to be the case here.

honestly it feels like MAPPA is too spread thin to properly dedicate the time and resources that shows like this need.

Lets goooo its finally here!!!! First of all, I love the opening. I've seen a lot of people complain about the CGI but I think it's alright. I don't think it's the best but I think it's good. I also like Makima's va actually despite many disliking her. I hope people don't harass the va or anything. Anyways great first ep and am looking forward to more of this being animated

Also I really want some bread with jam right now but I don't got any jam 😢 .
