Can you guys recommend some similar mangas? I don't mean in terms of genre or fantasy element but in the feeling Chainsaw Man gives off. I especially like the sense of the grim unknown and the predication that it all makes from within the shadowy system yet unknown to the reader. I have read Fire Punch.

I got a similar feeling when I read Ragna Crimson.

If you like gore and goofball comedy (and sudden switches between them), you should give Dorohedoro a try.

And you should definitely check out Dorohedoro.

Devil powers are very heavily reliant on strong emotions, mainly fear, so I guess we'll see how other emotions will play into it.

Thinking about other things that could be made into weapons, how about food? If a lot of time and feeling is put into making something, that should make a strong weapon, right?

By this logic couldn't she turn her home into a super powerful weapon? Downside is she'd be homeless.


V : I would say it's more emotional investment than owning something, otherwise how would she turn people into weapons?

I've been thinking about the anime and how it could adapt the rest of part 1. Assuming season 2 covers everything from Reze to the Gun Devil, that still leaves the final arc that's too short to do a full season. What if they did the entirety of the final arc as a movie though?

I only suggested a movie because of how much Fujimoto loves movies and the idea of making one might really appeal to him.

I don't know how anime studios handle guest directors, but when they get to the Gun Devil part my dream guest director for it is Hideaki Anno.

We need to come up with a term for how Fujimoto raises suspense with a threat, deflates it or distracts us with something else, then surprises us with a threat after all

well okay now I'm thinking about how Denji the Dog Guy had an arc about learning to be independent, and now Asa the Cat Lady is learning about trying to bond with and rely on others.

Now I'm thinking about what we might get for part 3 (if there is one). Maybe a fish person?

Denji is the most good person Asa knows. However, a chunk of that is being kept hidden from her due to situations, so she literally doesn't know that.
Yoru is not a good person, she is still the nicest person Asa knows.

Asa's life's pretty hosed!

Denji and Yoru are the most honest and trustworthy people Asa knows, which is kinda sad.
