I hope he sticks to the project all the way through and doesn't give into the harassment, he's doing a fantastic job so far.

Even if you think that, in what way is harassment ok my dude? Or are you just an edgy teen with too much free time?

If he doesn't do the shit he is supposed to do as the fans want it he fully deserves all the hate

What kind of retarded mentality is that😭

Chainsaw Man fanatics acting in toxic and immature way? How unexpected.

Sarcasm aside, I saw CSM fans thrashing even Tatsuki Fujimoto, because they didn't like how the plot in few latest chapters had been going like.

his own fault for bastardizing many people's beloved manga

Also I'm willing to bet my testicles that the "harrassment" isn't actually harrassment, just people shitting and criticizing on the adaptation. typical MAPPA VERY QUICK at playing victim at slightest criticism.

I finished watching the first episode not that long ago, but if "specific direction" means something seen in the first half of it, then I'm in! You don't see such approach in many animes nowadays, plus I like to see something I didn't expect before starting watching a show. Especially if it's done right.

Death threat fans and harassers are the reason why gatekeeping is necessary sometimes. These manchildren really need a good spanking.

But Chainsaw Man fanbase is quite full of gatekeepers already, which is weird considering huge popularity of its manga. Just tell them a different opinion than the one from essays written by overthinking edgelords (that kind of mindset was roasted by Fujimoto-sensei himself in one manga, by the way), or suggest a different ship. You will most likely see many reactions to your message that would be of similar to quality if you interacted with stereotypical community of MHA fans, lol. The fact that many former toxic Attack on Titan fans apparently moved from one fanbase to another and one of the latter was CSM fanbase don't help in making the whole fandom less radical.

I always defer to these two universal truths:

1. Whatever your view on an adaptation is, you should respectfully voice your criticisms of it so it's not misconstrued as feral raging.
2. Companies often use "harassment" and "hatred" as euphemisms for damage control when they get unexpected pushback for doing something wrong.

where are the threats and "harassment"?
studio pierrot received death threats weekly from fans because of urusei yatsura and they laughed about it, this drama is just bad
come back when there's a real threat but I guess you can't because the idiot director closed his twitter
people exaggerate in both sides, if there was an actual threat he would have filed a complain to the police, also people should make fun of something whenever they want

Yeah the director is a thin skinned idiot for having to helm a public work and deal with abuse from man/womanchildren unlike me who is totally anonymous lol. He has no obligation to keep it open and that honestly probably is the best way to deal with it. It just sucks because it is unique to talk to industry members but if they are going to receive abuse from people who don't like how a certain production went I don't blame them for not bothering. A personal social media isn't a job it's free time why the hell would I want to listen to random schizos on an already stressful job?

Plus you will get tons of people saying you should die or a horrible human being and none of those will likely a constitute a "real threat". You just need one douchebag who doesn't have to even comment and you get the Kyoto Animation fires all over again. Way too many people in general feel entitled regarding certain jobs in stuff like the service or entertainment industry.

There isn't any exaggeration once you make it personal you lose on criticism. There is a difference between making personal insults and saying their approach to the work is bad. This isn't simply I like what he has done for CSM and the production so far bias coming through. I hated the sequel trilogy for SW but still felt a decent amount of the criticism was petty and childish. It's one of the big reasons I don't interact with the fandom anymore. It's a media work and people need to stop taking it so seriously. There isn't a two side story here people shouldn't feel so entitled to make comments such as that over simply being unhappy with the product. Anything else you leave your bad review and move on. There isn't much to laugh about.

The anime looks like garbage

The colour palette is equal to that of Ex-Arm. There sound and OST lacks a lot as well

Ex-Arm director also said he wanted to do something "original", "different from all the other anime". We already know how that ended.

What a terrible post
If garbage means high level sakuga then i would take garbage
