| Yeah they're basically the same, the only difference is Fujimoto sensei kill his characters instantly and without an ounce of remorse, Gege sensei torture his characters first before killing them deliberately. |
| Makima and Gojo aren’t similar in the slightest (imo anyways) and just because they have some elements like you said (a trio, main character with a demon inside etc) in common doesn’t mean that CSM is another JJK. I’ve read the whole of CSM and watched JJK and I never really thought they were similar, or that they gave me the same vibes. I guess I get where ure coming from tho. |
DexterDrubo said: This isn't a bait thread. I am an anime only and I have seen JJK (Jujutsu Kaisen) and CsM (Chainsaw Man) seems really similar to JJK. The mc is poor like Itadori and has a demon inside him. Have a fucked up leader, Makima just like Gojo. Have a black haired, doesnt get along with MC but deep down has bro love for the mc like Megumi and has a girl who doesn't get along with mc and uses Hammer just like Nobara. Then has a kind organization to kill those demons just like how JJK has. In the end CSM seems like a dark version of JJK. I am not hating CSM or comparing, just noticed some similarities. Yeah you can say that because fujimoto himself admitted that this work of his inspired by many other Anime and He was/is fan of Monogatari series as you can see the last fight scene of the first part is inspired by kizumonogatari 3... |

you can use your observations to write a recommendation of your own... |
| i’d say this is quite a bit better than jjk and they’re not carbon copies of each other, but there definitely are similarities |
MaesoPie said: i mean you could compare a million anime like this. JJK, CSM, and Naruto are about: Main character has demon inside them Main character can partially use demons power Main party has 3 characters Main character uses demon to fight enemies After you watch a lot of anime there's bound to be similarities. Theres upwards of 6000 anime shows that have ever been made, soo yea. I will admit there are lines that you could draw between the 2, but the atmosphere of the 2 dont really compare to eachother. At least in my prospective. What about you? Do you get the same feeling between the 2 settings? If only there was a name for this phenomenon.... maybe something like Shooo.... Shon.... Shone-e Shoneee-- SHONEN! Yes...I think this one is good. |

| As a manga reader for both of these works, I don't think they are similar at all. CSM is written in a very non shonen way compared to JJK. Their is no magic highschool, no secret societies, no evil villains group or any tournament arcs in Chainsaw Man at all. It is written more like a horror/ action/ comedy movie than a battle shonen anime. Chainsaw Man also has a lot of satirical, parody elements in it as well while JJK does not. JJK on the other hand is written like a classic battle shonen anime with all the shonen tropes present in it. JJK is just battle shonen done right while Chainsaw Man is trying to be more non traditional action manga than other mangas that has influenced it. |
 |
| I've read both and they really aren't that similar, maybe the darkness of them but that's really it. CSM starts to diverge from basic shonen trops early on and never really goes back to them where on the other hand is jjk, that is a battle shonen done right but doesn't diverge that much at all from the shonen norm. I would say even now where the anime currently is, it shows more character than the first 4 eps of jjk. Denji isn't really a pervert, he is just dreaming of living a normal life, you saw it with the toast and how he talked about it also when he was talking to power in ep 3 about having a drink is like a dream come true. He isn't just thinking of girls it's just he has small dreams and the toast came true and having a drink so he wants something else that he thinks is normal. |

I’ve read the whole of CSM and watched JJK and I never really thought they were similar, or that they gave me the same vibes. I guess I get where ure coming from tho. The premises are quite similar - an organization that hunts monsters in a modern-day Tokyo recruits a new member who can control the power of the monsters - but the execution is different. It also depends on what else you're watching. Lately, I've been watching CSM, Gundam, Urusei Yatsura, Odd Taxi, and Yugioh - of those, CSM is clearly the most similar to JJK. But if I were currently watching CSM, JJK, Parasyte, and Tokyo Ghoul, then the differences in each become more obvious. |

| dumb title. I guess Fairy tail is just another One piece or JJK is just another Bleach because they have similar characters and similar themes. |

I tought you said you were an anime only lol.imlucifer said: Makima and Gojo aren’t similar in the slightest (imo anyways) and just because they have some elements like you said (a trio, main character with a demon inside etc) in common doesn’t mean that CSM is another JJK.

I find them similar cuz both are strong af, uses people with weird powers,have a high profile in their profession and both are ready to kill MC if he does something suspicious. |
| Go read 'Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece' If you like webnovel with historical, military and kingdom building genre. |
| makima is not really similar to gojo, gojo is similar to urahara |
 |
| Yeah it's similar at first glance, but is it just another jjk? No, Itadori isn't poor did you watch him struggle to get money? Sold his nut to pay a debt? And Itadori is not the only character with 'Demon inside' trope. Both Dennis and Itadori have a completely different personality. Aki and Megumi is different, Aki shares a lot more similarity to sasuke, Revenge trope and shit. Nobara and Power is not similar at all, Power is dumb as fuck comparing her to Nobara is like an insult to Nobara. Gojo and makima is different, both have a completely different personality. |
| Hey you, yes you! Interested to be a decent human being? Then go outside and get a fucking life. |
| no, imo not. csm is way less typical fightinf shounen stuff. the characters are more in the focus in csm. injjk the fights are the main plot. |
DexterDrubo said: Oh i see."uses people with weird power" I meant to say she manipulates characters with unique powers like Power,Denji and maybe there are others too Anyway for your original post, the answer is a No, Similiar on the surface but both are completely different type of a story. CSM focused more on its characters, JJK focused more on its Action with its great Power system. |
| Go read 'Mediterranean Hegemon of Ancient Greece' If you like webnovel with historical, military and kingdom building genre. |
| Just because it has similar elements doesn't mean they are the same. At least to me, when I was reading CSM I didn't see any similarities between them. Itadori is nothing like Denji. Their goals are completely different. What the hell is with the Makima and Gojo comparison? They both are nothing alike, nor they have any similar elements. If I explain their characters, I'll have to give major spoilers then. Nobara doesn't get along with Itadori? Did we watch the same show?

I don't ever recall Gojo saying he'll kill Itadori. As far as I remember, he literally told he will kill the higher ups when Itadori |

DexterDrubo said: uses people with weird power" I meant to say she manipulates characters with unique powers like Power,Denji and maybe there are others too. And I can feel the intensity from Makima's presence that she is strong. (Not like Gojo though.) She not manipulates characters using her power at all in anime. Denji is just fell in love with Makima voice and what she do to help him. Power just scared of Makima. Gojo is strong but she cannot kill Makima but Makima can easily kill any other character in JJK tho like Nabara. |
| "Makima is just like Gojo" Literally just watching the anime is enough to tell you how BS this is. |
