Do you guys think Chainsaw Man will reach the level of hype and popularity of Demon Slayer or even AOT?
miles333 said: I’m relatively new to anime but the buzz around CSM is making me wonder if it will be the next biggest anime that becomes so popular and is so good that even some non anime watchers will eventually hear about it? What do you think? Not AOT levels sense AOT made anime truly popular in Western places outside of the big 3 that mostly had anime fans while AOT had GOT and everyone talking about it. It won't be Demon Slayer in manag sales since I would call Demon Slayer a golden tickert that made anitwitter and it can't be replaced there but in terms of disuccsion of the anime I think it could surpass it now but at it's peak then no since Demon Slayer is more kid friendly and shonenen than Chainsaw man. |

| Yes, Chainsaw Man will surpass AoT and rival DS. AOT is dozens of times less popular than Demon Slayer statistically and CSM is going to be the next DS, no doubt. However that doesn't take everything into consideration as Dragon Ball Super for all its flaws reigns supreme over both, with its long-term marketing potential. |
| CSM will prolly go beyond. The manga was something else and that was before the anime adaptation was even announced lol. I really want to see how it all goes down. |
| in Japan probably not but in the West definitely |

| it be popular but not over pass AOT. but if it over pass AOT (I doubt that it will over pass) a lot of fans well start to rating the anime 1. |

What do you think? In terms of popularity this is easily the most popular I have seen a manga get internationally without an anime adaption. Ultimately though while the action and hype moments will bring in the casuals SxF was also pretty big just due to the wide appeal it has. We are getting to a point that anime is becoming more well known internationally. Hit titles like this aren't going to be uncommon. Intentionally I think CSM will be at least on par with the above titles if the adaption is good. In Japan DS is a whole other thing. That is a once in generation title. We aren't going to see sales like that again at least not for awhile (stuff like CoVid I think helped), CSM though already was getting closer to AOT manga sales per volume without an anime adaption so I think it will surpass it there once the anime is out. |

However that doesn't take everything into consideration as Dragon Ball Super for all its flaws reigns supreme over both, with its long-term marketing potential. Which statisticis are you talking about? Aot is thousands of times more popular than ds. You can simply ask any non-anime watcher or just see which is the most popular anime on this site. Sales. Demon Slayer made over 8 billion dollars in one year. AoT's total franchise net worth is less than 1 billion. |
| I think hype and popularity measuring contests are for dumbasses. |

| mmmm... depends on the execution of the show , the animation, the memorability of the characters. |

It took AOT three seasons(with parts) to reach an insane amount of popularity. The story in chainsaw man is not as compelling nor does it have the required depth. There's a reason pretty much everyone in the anime/manga industry has read it, it is relatively short and can be easily consumed.

AoT isn't as popular as you claim it is. The Demon Slayer movie alone was more than likely more profitable than all those three AoT seasons together. It will take less than one season of CSM to surpass AoT's legacy. |

| Numbers (Sales) don't show AoT as popular as DS, because, let's face it, a very big chunk of the western fanbase are probably reading it for free somewhere over the Internet or, if they are actually paying anything for it, it's via a service not made specifically for that series but to access a large catalogue of different titles. Chainsaw Man will be no different. It will probably be discussed and hyped even more than both AoT and DS, but the ones who will actually affect the sales statistics the most will be the Japanese. So, time will tell how much the Japanese will go and purchase the volumes for a manga no longer in publication (Chainsaw Man 2 is, so far, a completely different story) |

FilthyDream said: Okay bro. The most likely scenario is that. like most short series it will reach a peak of popularity and that popularity will only go down with a lack of content. It's simple. No need to throw words like "cope". There is a mammoth of anime that reached an incredible amount of popularity while airing only to be pushed to the side for the new seasonals. That's how the anime industry works. Why should I believe that CSM will be the exception?samsince04 said: AoT is more popular than KnY in the West, and KnY is more popular than AoT in Japan. Also, CSM won't be forgotten after it ends, cope.I don't know what's more stupid, thinking AOT is less popular than KNY or thinking that CSM will be more popular than AOT.

k11chi said: I admit AOT may not be as popular as KNY because I was judging by eye test and the massive amount of hype around AOt since season 3 part 2. But saying CSM will surpass AOT's legacy after less than one season is just outlandish to me. There's recency bias and there's this. Craziest shit I've seen all week. Every time I open a thread relating to CSM(which is a lot lately) it's always people making brain-dead takes. At least wait for your overrated anime to come out before overrating it. That used to be the protocol around here.samsince04 said: I don't know what's more stupid, thinking AOT is less popular than KNY or thinking that CSM will be more popular than AOT.

| It has already reached insane popularity and hype without its anime, so the popularity after anime will be extreme |
