the anime tone wasn't much different. maybe it was a bit more uhhh idk serious? subdued? but i think that works in its favor wrt the director's vision to make it more movie-like than anime

Mazerunner posted:Kishibe had a ton of resources at his disposal in his attempt to take out Makima, like a whole platoon of SWAT and a couple devil hunters who sacrificed themselves to contract with the Hell devil. I feel like Makima drawing in/subduing the Gun Devil for Japan and then immediately destroying it to crank up the angst factor on her pet himbo might have soured her position.

It was always unclear to me whether the giant Gun Devil monster Makima fought was the whole devil or just the 30% America had. Cause it seems weird that you could contract the entire gun devil with just a handful of shell casings. Otherwise it wouldn’t matter which country had which amount.

 Makima is dead. Her fiends are dead. You have no one left to fight for.

I sorta assumed that was a lie, the percentages and where they were, but maybe it's just that America had the bit that had a head.

Maybe there was like a breaking point where there's enough of the Devil's body that if you awaken their consciousness with a contract they'll be capable enough to zoop around the world and reclaim the others pieces. Plus some Mutually Assured Destruction to keep it boxed with the concept that the Gun Devil is so powerful you're unlikely to create a long-lasting contract with it, and it'll probably destroy you and everyone else after the first target you gave it is down.

Does the manga explicitly state that the Devil that appeared above gun Devil is punishment Devil? It seems to be accepted by fandom but I couldn’t find a primary source I buy it though, it makes me laugh that people are at least as scared of punishment as they are of guns

Going by its appearance, I assume that the Punishment Devil is on a scale perhaps similar to the Darkness Devil in being a very primal fear. The Gun Devil probably really shook things up in Hell by becoming such an overwhelming fear in only a couple centuries.

I always interpreted it as an amalgamation of the contracts. The thing that appears is kind of a little bit of all of those things

I figured the pieces they had were of an older, dead gun devil and Murika contracted with a different, newer, resurrected gun devil. Since devils just resurrect over and over.

I mean, Gun would have been around since 1250 at the latest, so he had some time to get established. If you've been to the Met, you could have seen some medieval armor with holsters set up for ride by shooting. Heck, the origin of the phrase "Bullet proof" came from knightly armor, according to the museum descriptions there. The armorer took a shot at it with a gun at close range, and then the dent in the armor served as proof that a bullet wouldn't get through. Chainsaw is the real upstart, since he's only be around since 1783 at the earliest, and 1883 if you only count the tree cutting kind. And yet, in that little time, even the Primals are scared of him.

Pochita dropped off the script for Chainsaw Massacre and slipped the director a 20.

Tinfoil hat theory: Fake chainsaw man is the real chainsaw devil and pochita was something much worse. Tinfoil hat theory I’ve seen going around that I don’t think works but was so batshit I have to repeat it: Asa is the war devil and Yoru is just her Tyler Durden of her wish to live “more selfishly”. She was found and raised by her mom as a baby similar to how Denji is raising Nayuta or Makima may have been raised by the government. It’s why despite not being a hybrid she can use War powers even when Yoru isn’t there. And Fami called her, not Yoru sister.

I prefer my manga to be digital as it's easier to store and take with me. Already bought all of part 1 and enjoy every re-read.

I wonder how many devils had their pelvis's savaged when chainsaws were just for assisting in child birth. Tbf that is an absolutely horrific thought if you are an expecting mother to face, so pretty good fear. Question on Aki. When he is tied up to Makima for his antemortem contract how did he die? One minute alive then he was dead and tied to Makima. Did she kill him and tie him up? Or did the gun devil kill him in the initial barrage and then Aki immediately got joined with Makima? I always took the death toll with Aki at the end of it meaning he died fighting the gun devil with Makima, but now I realize he could have just been one of the initial victims.

I always figured it was the latter, that after his big determined build-up to revenge against the Gun Devil, he dies pointlessly in 0.1 seconds along with 1,000 other schmucks. And then goes on to his second and final death trying to kill his friend while retreating into the only other thing that meant anything to him, the childhood that was taken from him. Both, in their own way, the "worst possible death" for him, and he gets to experience them both. The Future Devil, pervert voyeur that he is, is over the moon.

I pictured it as Makima pointing towards the horizon on the beach and suddenly a bullet whizzes through Aki's head before he realizes what's happening. Then Makima takes control of his corpse (and Angel) without missing a beat
