@sambistew Nah i been hating since they left the school and was right once again

im giving it 3ish months before you all turn around and go “i actually loved the chainsaw man ending!”

@CofyStudios @sambistew The ending of bleach is still horrible Aot in the anime was much better

@sambistew It’s gonna be Bleach and AoT all over again.

@helpmepls200 @GoodTasteJayce @sambistew I feel a lot of CSM defenders are gaslighting very hard cause besides Denji finding power again and Nayuta been a pseudo daugther to Denji everything in part 1 wraps up

@GoodTasteJayce @sambistew Yes part 1 was fast paced but at least it actually finished the fucking character arcs. There was nothing else to resolve. People wanted part 2 to see Denji's future and him finally going to school. There wasn't really that much from part 1 that needed to be resolved in part 2.

Now that people have had time to read it, and I've had a bit of time to chew on it, my opinion on CSM's ending is that it's REALLY good. As worthy a spiritual successor to Devilman as the TV Ending of EVA, and sure to be just as divisive in its profundity. It does come out of left field, but that's how Fujimoto's written the story from the beginning. All the best arcs throw Denji into it without warning as a natural result of the chaotic forces in play, so pulling him out of it the same way just makes sense. And it lets the series say exactly what it wants to say without getting bogged down in extraneous details or overlong goodbyes. The only thing I think could have really improved it is a little bit more of Asa's perspective in the last few chapters - "season 2" mostly treats her as a deutoragonist so not getting her input in the final few moments feels weird. Though at the same time, the story was mostly about her total lack of agency so it's fitting in that sense. Pochita taking Denji's agency away at the end is also thematically fitting, and I think handled perfctly - he's watched Denji pursue what he wants this whole time alongside us, so it makes sense that he'd understand better than anyone that what Denji really NEEDS is to not be Chainsaw Man anymore. In the end, we're left with the sense that Denji could and probably will be killed by a devil at any moment, but that was always the case. And until then, he's got his other brain cell back, his little sister and the woman he loved are happy, and he's eating a lot better than toast every day... even if he can't afford it. Perhaps he will even touch another boob one day, but regardless, he is content for now, and that's all he could really ask for. Might expand on my thoughts on this and the rest of the season in an off-the-cuff vlog. Probably I'll talk a bit there about my theory on what primal fear Pochita actually represents. I know some were hoping for a full honest review, but I just don't have time to give it a full scripted video right now, and honestly I don't know if enough of my audience keeps up with the manga to make it worthwhile.

@psycogenicFugue Bro is human so eventually he has to take some L's sad it had to be CSM tho and not some random one shot

The worst part of this is that Fujimoto isn't some hack. You don't write Part 1, Goodbye Eri, Look Back, or Fire Punch if you're a bad author. Any claims that he is are in bad faith. So the manga turning out like this even in spite of that is what makes it so damn disappointing.

@kelele77 @PlazmaBolt @bpdasa Shows picture of a crab on the beach Peopl: "Look is a crab" Miserable twt people:" no you moron is about how the crab doesn't appreciate freedom, cause he had to drag its own kind down to achieve his escape of the evil capitalist fisherman just off screen""

@PlazmaBolt @bpdasa oh yes the manga where a child gets groomed constantly and it warps his view of reality isn't actually about that it's just about hot women, you guys are so smart

what is fujimoto even trying to say about victimhood and sexual trauma? i don’t even know what perspective i’m supposed to gain from a manga where those topics were so deeply prevalent

@PaulTassi Witcher gets carried by writting CD gets carried by sandbox and gameplay variety

Obviously The Witcher has 40x the story and characterization, but I genuinely think Crimson Desert has one of the all-time best video game world sandboxes ever

@VishalSid_1 Holy Gantz is a deep cut

Even the Japanese can see it bruh😭

@StarkyTheSald The walking dead fooled the publishers

Has a big series ever actually had a fake ending that fooled the fans?

@ThunderTheDevil Things can always get worst

starting to have 2nd thoughts

@Morningbird_Asa @NazyGramer All stories end what is real from them is what you get out of them even the bad ones can teach tou to appreciate the good ones. We will always remember part 1 and the good parts of part 2 and that will be it We now wait for the next great story

@NazyGramer I'm just emotional rn

Ngl I am not sure if I'm even in the mood to reread Part 2 (or even Part 1) now that...nothing really matters.

@NazyGramer @Morningbird_Asa What a terrible comparison specially considering the context of the situation Erwin used that speech to manipulate people into dying in battle with him This also doesnt even make sense with how stories apply to real life bro just read other Fujimoto works.

@Morningbird_Asa Here's the relevant parts of the speech in case you haven't seen it, it also has basically no spoilers for whats happening up to that point.

@9Eg9kwhj1AyAxV9 @the_stle1 Is not even the correct time frame 😂

@the_stle1 She wasn't even anywhere near when it happened so it just doesn't make any sense whatsoever

Thissss. This is what is PISSING ME THE FUCK OFF. HOW ARE YOU USING POWER AS A SUBTITUE FOR POCHITA WHEN NO SINGLE FUCKING WRITING HINTS AT THE FACT THAT POWER WOULD HAVE BEEN THERE IF POCHITA DIDN'T EXIST

@MechaG11 @lukaglazer777 @AwestruckVox Pochita didnt know shit either he says in the text he doesnt know what will happen So in his POV he really is just sending Denji to die in the shack unless Power somehow just gets to him before he dies Its a mess

@lukaglazer777 @AwestruckVox This is the one fair criticism I've seen. It's sad that he doesn't come to that conclusion. At the same time though, I think Pochita was right in that maybe Denji wouldn't be happy with him around. Denji needed to be separated from him.

Part 2’s message is blatantly “Don’t mask your selfish desires under noble intent” if you ask me Denji’s motivation to continuing being a hero was fueled by lust and a need for adoration. It was a hollow endeavor. Asa’s motivation to save Denji was fueled by a desire to prove she’s a good person, that she’s worthy of living. Yoru ultimately vindicates her, but dedicating your life to save/fix someone you barely know is a hollow endeavor. They both were so focused on chasing these selfish, empty goals that they neglected the world ending around them and got nothing out of it. Public Safety also does this in the story. Barem and the weapons less so, but still do. Shit even Tanaka in the first chapter sums this up - acts as if he has Asa’s best interest at heart, really just wants to sleep her.

@Weekday_gaming @PalacKul @bbl_jizzy Is still unresolved lmao That Power is not the same fucking power

@PalacKul @bbl_jizzy It’s still unresolved 💀

Is it crazy to say csm would be better if it just actually ended here? 🤔

@wstgoat7 @HubPointless The ending is not good

@HubPointless Attack on titan (I’m surprised no one is saying this)

When was the last time a mainstream big manga had a good ending

@Geo_AW @HubPointless Naruto had a good ending is the parts before the ending that are a bit messy

@HubPointless I feel like it’s impossible because we live in such a hater ass culture

@zannisontwt @Theworldwuw Then he is a dumb fuck now isnt he

@Theworldwuw It’s also his story though and he wanted to write that the world was literally about to end

Genuine question to those who say that this was meaningless. Where would the series have gone from the point they were at? MULTIPLE states are gone from the US, HUNDREDS of cali citizens are dead, not to mention thousands if not millions of Japanese citizens

@Rey_Sword @MahiruPlankton Is not in the same league honestly AoT is like a a dissapointing conclusions to a great journey Part 2 is like a scientist experimenting how much sbit you can eat

@MahiruPlankton the question now is - what had the worst ending? - chainsaw man or - attack on titan

If you plan on reading Chainsaw Man at any point just stop after Chapter 97 It's not worth it

@Haurmeya Just go read American comics guy

anyways all in all death to weekly shonen jump and their ability to sap the passion out of mangaka
