Hey, so anyone ever figure out why Angel had that power or is it just "because it's cool."

Y'all think too hard. Angels got flaming swords and blew up Sodom and Gomorrah. They're always wearing armor and got swords. In Japanese fantasy media they're almost always either symbols of harsh, indiscriminate divine authority or corrupted forms of humanity with no conventional morality. Makea-u-into-a-dope-spear is very comfortable in that. Also, cuz it was dope.

Or at least, it's used cynically a tool for violence like anything else. Makima is Makima and that angel who's come to comfort you is stealing away the last of your time on Earth to turn you into a sword.

Let's be real, he had that power because it made his life awful and no one is allowed to have nice things. At the very least, they are not allowed to hang on to nice things.

Honestly surprised she wasn't more powerful. Feels like she should be on par with Darkness in my absolutely objective, not terrified of spiders, opinion.

I feel like CSMs power system is just very different than the heavy rules based fighting of NEN and Cursed energy and a lot of shonen rn. Its not nearly as strict. Angel drains your life because of the loose association with a peaceful death. He makes swords because of the loose association with flaming swords. It really just always boils down to “what is scary about X, and then how would a devil use that scary thing.” The spider devil is a good one because what’s scary about spiders? Finding one. How did it get there? It can probably teleport.

Also it’s wild reading this manga and then trying to read poo poo like Tokyo Ghoul or JJK. Fujimoto uses dialogue so much less than his contemporaries. I feel the same way about watching the CSM anime and then watching literally anything else airing this season.

Elephant Parade posted:No, that's the most text-dense spread of the chapter; only the next two pages come close to matching it. Most have significantly less text, and a few have hardly any text at all. The last chapter had even less. ok sure but you can't pretend that HxH hasn't had some of the densest pages in shonen. I remember chapters that are wall to wall text with little action outside of it. hell I'm pretty sure that's happened this arc

Scholtz posted:I like JJK but I don't think it has as tight of a ~100 chapter run as CSM part 1 This is the big one for me. Not saying every manga should be a tight <100 chapter story, but I love that part 1 tells a complete story within that chapter limit.

MonsterEnvy posted:While I like Chainsaw, I think I still prefer JJK to it. Oh don’t get me wrong I also love JJK as well. It’s definitely just different. CSM and his one shots rely so much on visual story telling. And I think it makes Fujimoto stand out to me.

Continuing my Fujimoto binge by grabbing a copy of Look Back. Arrived today, plowed through it and it was a cute little read with a really sad turn. It's amazing in how few pages he capurted a really quite complicated relationship. The scene of Kyomoto saying she wants to go to art school and Fujino berrating her is as harsh a break up and Guts and Griffith in the snow. And that "what could have been" sequence! [insert various onomatopias signifying a range of hard to describe feelings]

Lol this manga is wild I don’t even think Chainsaw Man was exposed, at least not in the sense that our new MCs know who he is. Or at least, it seems like it’d be funnier if that’s how it played out so that’s how it’s gonna be.
