Chainsaw Man discussion thread

If Reze fans weren't so annoying this would hit different, now all I can think is Power probably screamed and through popcorn everywhere in the theater and that's why they're leaving.

If fans ruin your enjoyment of something, did you ever enjoy it in the first place?

I enjoyed when it was hip and underground because it made me feel special

 

[Anonymous_Learner]

Like, it's so funny to me when people say, "the fans ruined insert show or character and now i can't watch it or enjoy it"
Just don't interact with them. I dealt with annoying Asa fans and dislike some of them a lot. Despite that, i still like Asa and thinks she's one of the good things to come out of part 2 and the best things in csm in general. hell, CSM fans in general on twt being so snobbish and acting so above the shonen genre that their favorite manga is apart of really ticked me off before going into chainsaw man but i still went in and thoughly enjoyed the chaotic ride

Anonymous is right, don't be afraid to block/ignore people who's sole purpose is to ruin your experience in a medium.

Judge the medium for what it is, not the various people who interpret it from their own lense.

Curious, when did you guys read CSM for the first time, and what was your initial opinion on it?

For me it was in my 2022, right on the Nayuta reveal.

 

[Anonymous_Learner]

I read after the 167 drama so, wondering what the hell was going on and bored since JJK was on break, jumped on.
Initially, i didn't think it was for me since i was JJK centered at the time (Besides from MHA, of course) and didn't think it'd stack up since i only knew about chainsaw man cuz pretty everyone got spoiled on power's death and the repeated drama about Denji. then, after watching the anime, loving the adaptation, getting to know what i can based off chainsaw man powerscaling on this site, and getting a jist of what everyone was talking about by reading the chapters on twitter and people bringing up previous chapters i was unable to get to, i actually kinda liked it. Then, my hype really got up when Pochita reappeared, though, at the time since i was unable to read previous chapters, i had zero connection to Nayuta and genuinely was like this when it was revealed she died

 

[Epiccheev]

I read it randomly in a manga site because the weird name pulled my attention.
The story was right at the point where they came back from hell and Power was left with trauma.

 

[Anonymous_Learner]

Like, i felt bad for denji since she seemed important to him and everyone kept talking about on twt, "Whens nayuta coming back, Fujimoto" but i basically felt shock but otherwords...nothing.
Guess that makes me similar to denji, in a way.

I started reading it around 2019. I found it weird initially but I basically enjoyed everything about it at the time. My favourite character for most of part 1 was Kobeni

 

[GunshyFever]

For me, my first read was in 2022. I was one of those guys who just could not get into anime and was mostly only interested in TV series, but I caught a glimpse of the iconic "I wanna touch a chest" panel. At the time I only watched mainstream stuff like Demon Slayer or odd anime that would crush me emotionally like Happy Sugar Life. I do not fully remember the story, but I remember it making me feel depressed. So seeing Denji ramble on about that goal made me kind of interested. I was also intrigued by Makima.

I read it over the span of a few days because I could only find time to read it at night, and it really hooked me. But it was kind of confusing by the time I finished Part 1 because so much stuff had happened so fast that it felt like my soul was broken and I could not even interpret what had happened. But after catching up to Part 2 shortly after and rereading it when the anime released, I developed a much better understanding of it and fell in love with it all over again.

Funny enough, regarding Nayuta in Chapter 167 or 168, I remember Zab mentioning that Nayuta was alive because Yoru had somehow regained the memories Nayuta had erased. But I was skeptical because at the time we also knew that when a devil dies, their power becomes undone. Then a few weeks later, when I saw that severed head on my phone screen, I got up and walked around for about 7 minutes. That was one of the greatest shockers of Part 2 behind the Death Devil reveal.

"Himeno ex partner's girlfriend" bro you be putting ANYONE there, if you genueily wanted me to scale her then she's a featless bum who got speed blitzed by kid Aki putting gum on her hair

She's clearly Outerversal bro /jk.

Your right, Reze was never a cool character

 

[Anonymous_Learner]

Your right, Reze was never a cool character

When Arkenis is, once again, blantly incorrect but i'm an agenda pusher and lover of slander

 

[GodEarh206]

Reze has never been a character that left much of an impression on me, except for her powers. Everything else about her before the anime didn't interest me at all when I read about her. After the anime, thanks to other aspects, I found her somewhat decent, though not yet great.

AURA FARMING LEAGUE ! MATCH 16: DARKNESS DEVIL VS CHRIS REDFIELD (WEEK 2)

`Chainsaw Man vs Resident Evil From a place where fear doesn’t exist… it is existence… emerges something that was never meant to be seen. Silence. Void. Every presence… erased before it’s understood. Not evil… not alive… just there. The embodiment of primal fear… Darkness Devil. And across...

[TartaChocholate]

While I knew about the manga for a good while, I started reading it after the anime aired to check it out after hearing so many positive things about it. And became a fan as well. Mostly, the characters were what sold it for me.

 

[VoidGoji]

Knowing how likely CSM is to get some sort of sequel or continuation, especially regarding the Devil Devil and the full bodied Gun Devil that Fujimoto teased, it is likely that we might get taken into a blast from the past regarding Pochita's prime, which is my best guess. I would honestly love if Murata helped him keep the power levels a buck.

When did he tease that?

 

[Arkenis]

When did he tease that?

In the manga

 

[GunshyFever]

When did he tease that?

In interviews, just use search terms on Google and you will find them with ease.

None of these are essential, but a short story with around 60 to 80 chapters focused on lore and explanations would be very enjoyable. I hope Fujimoto takes the opportunity to explore concepts he could not fully develop in Part 2 due to the direction of the story. One interesting idea is the Devil Devil, which he mentioned in an interview as a possible future concept. So it is definitely possible that a sequel like the one I am imagining could happen.

 

[VoidGoji]

Oh, meant the full body gun devil xd

 

[AnimesFreak2]

Ngl it gonna be he never does as he is burn out with Chainsaw Man period or even simply cause he likes keeping lots of shit vague ( narratively or even just power scaling wise lol )

Or if he ever DOES do it not gonna be for at least for a few years for sure

 

[Breadbear83]

yall think this Calc gets invalidated by Evading Punches Rule? i did a CGM Thread where im arguing about how it could still be used as Yuko is indicated to have been holding Back during the feat by 2 statements said by herself, her tentacle having bluriness around it implies high speeds, which logically should be above average human level, up to Super Human speed assumption because even weaker Fiend has superhuman Physical characteristics in their profiles

the feat is not inconsistent with the verse as its still below Long Blocking Bullets Feat which Yuko upscale to

(Yuko holding Back argument its to say that the feat shows Seigi to be faster than a holding back Yuko, it being consistent than a now serious Yuko would blitz him, inconsistencies is why evading punches rule exist)

 

[Arkenis]

How would yall react if War devil took over your body?

 

[Breadbear83]

How would yall react if War devil took over your body?

If I were in chainsawman world with the knowledge of a normal human, I may have died by some devil while being scared, not allowing Yoru to take it down by possessing me

If I had knowledge of chainsawman, id snitch on denji being Chainsaw Man, tell her that Denji's a gooner so she should posses a girl to seduce Denji instead, so I get freed from having Hitler possessing me, I'm not dealing with all the shit that Asa dealt with

 

[Arkenis]

Someone should calc the Roach devil's LS/AP for pushing himself and then stopping his own force with a punch. Not sure how good it is but could help support more scaling.

 

[GunshyFever]

How would yall react if War devil took over your body?

Having the War Devil take over your body means she possesses half of your brain and can kill you at any moment, on top of taking over your body. That would also mean Chainsaw Man would be tied to your place of residence. I would probably freak out for a bit, then blackmail her into making a contract that if we do find Chainsaw Man, she also has to die when we kill him.

The blackmail would likely work because she needs my personality to blend in and without it she would probably get killed within a few days.

Likely class 100 or class K

 

[Breadbear83]

Someone should calc the Roach devil's LS/AP for pushing himself and then stopping his own force with a punch. Not sure how good it is but could help support more scaling.

It has been calculated, and a CGM approved it (thought was never included in verse page) that cockroach devil has a weight of 62 Tons: https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/User_blog:ElJoaki5/Chainsaw_Man:_Multiple_Devils_Weight

So a feat of him lifting His own body can scale to his body weight as lifting strength

To have an idea, cockroach devil is also said in that calc to be 17 meter tall (10 times taller than a human) he jumps from one building to another, as he would need to jump across a 2 sidewalks and the streets, perhaps there were 30 meters between the buildings, so this is like if a human jumped 3 meter before visibly going down (cockroach devil made a straight path to the other building)

Perhaps an actual calc would get it higher to over 100 Tons at Class K, cuz a human making a jump like that would be considerably higher than their body weight

Im more interested in calcing him throwing Denji hard enough to destroy concrete like that, could give some LS

Hello. The Famine Devil page seems to need to be updated.

https://vsbattles.fandom.com/wiki/Talk:Kiga

 

[GunshyFever]

An update is planned. However, I am pretty busy and will likely remain so for a while due to real life concerns, which limits the time I have to work on these profile projects.

Feel free to leave an outdated spoiler in the meantime. That should give viewers of the page an idea of the page's current status.

 

[Breadbear83]

Hey does anyone know about some other sources like from shounen jump that talks about Chainsaw Man, with maybe some statement about Powerscaling? I wanted to see some stuff about Bat Devils "supersonic attack"

For example in the volumes extras they have aome statements, like in volume 3 they talk about gun devil being "the strongest devil" even thought that's disproven later, it's a statement related to Powerscaling, that's what I'm searching for

 

[Arkenis]

You could check Fujimoto's sister's twitter, she sometimes talks about devils

 

[Anonymous_Learner]

How would yall react if War devil took over your body?

I'd question her taste.
Realsitically, i get too scared of a devil and die.
Altneratively, i do what Breadbear83 did and tell her that she should posses a girl since denji's sex obsessed (though i might try pull a sukuna and try making a contract with her for this information in exchange for my safety. this might not work)

 

[Epiccheev]

THe world after Pochita ate the "not being Denji" Devil

 

[Epiccheev]

Being honest, i miss waiting for the next chapter. At least we have still have the anime.

 

[Breadbear83]

Did Bat Devil actually made a Sonic Boom here?, the anime shows it in more detail

his profile says that it did in the speed section of it first incarnation, besides the attack probably looking like a supersonic boom, as its the Bat Devil, the attack may be related to Echolocation, an ability that real bats can do by emmiting ultrasounds, which, logically, would go at Sound speed of 343 m/s

unsure if just the fact that Bat Devil being a fodder Devil both by Feats and Fear scaling, means that Character can upscale from he using sound, as Hybrid Denji didnt dodge the attack, couldnt find any statements describing the attack that makes it reliable for assumed baseline SuperSonic speed for slower characters

 

[GunshyFever]

The Bat Devil would only upscale via using that ability specifically and would not scale himself. Yet again, that's a rather bold claim to make. Just because he's fodder doesn't mean he can't be SOS. He isn't speed capped like some human devil hunters and what you are saying is that statement would plausibly place them on similar levels.

And you mention that Hybrid Denji didn't dodge the attack. It's more so that he couldn't. In the manga, Denji rushes toward the Bat Devil and as he is about to strike him mid-air, he is then hit by the pressure of the sound wave which sends him flying back. That is a scenario where he wasn't capable of dodging, not proof that he can't.
