part 2 Nayuta
>>282922442>t. brainlet
I heard that movie is censored in a few countires. But what exactly did they censor?
>>282922449Aki looks like shit in Part 2 style
>>282922449Is Fujimoto even physically capable of not drawing school uniforms anymore?
>>282922449i wonder how much fujimoto regrets killing all these characters now
>>282922515>School Arc>Don't draw school uniforms?
>>282922449Fujos paying the bills again
>>282922451Koreans really love chainsaw man huh? https://youtube.com/watch?v=UlCJzngW3xk
>>282922482The pool scene but they kept the "Denji's imagination" scene it's weird.
>>282922517t. retard who wants One Piece where no one dies and nothing matters to anyone
Chadji will live and have a happy ending with all of the Fumikos in the world.
>>282922451DOOMTROONSYOU TOLD ME PRESALES WOULD END CHAINSAW MANWHY DID YOU LIE TO ME????????????????
>>282922468>No dude, you don't get it, I would totally love this character even if he wasn't a twink femboy! It doesn't matter that he barely did anything, bro, he looks cute and probably got a nice femboy cock, okay!? And let's not forget about all the amazing gay porn of him with Aki! He's an amazing character!Total Fujoshi extermination
>>282922442>>282922543This is what he tried to do with Yoshida and failed miserably>>282922565I never in my life read warm piss
>>282922565No one would complain if he developed the new cast well.
>>282922594>Shitshida No one cares lol Aki mogs
>>282922589>Doomtroons>Doing anything but humiliating themselves
>>282922442A character doesn't need to have a big impact on the plot to be likeable
>>282922594>This is what he tried to do with YoshidaHe didn't; that was his editor, Shihei Lin, forcing and persuading Fujimoto to make Yoshida a big part of Part 2. Fujimoto never gave a shit about shitshida.
>>282922559>The pool sceneDid they show her boobs/pubes?
>>282922665And Fujimoto accepted the idea because he wanted to bait Fujobucks with Yoshida, which failed miserably exactly because he never knew what to do with him
What we learned last thread:>Denji will die
>>282922663Kobeni is even less relevant than Angel and is extremely popular.
>>282922683>which failed miserably exactly because he never knew what to do with himThat's because Fujimoto is aggressively heterosexual; a character like homoshida was bound to fail. If fujos never voted him into the top 10 poll, we wouldn't even have to deal with shitshida in Part 2.
>>282922703It would be funny if Kobeni ranked higher than any part 2 character in the poll.
>>282922666>Did they show her boobs/pubes?They show Reze's nipples in a stealthy way, someone might have the frame>>282922702For someone that keeps spamming Lebowski for everything you don't like, you don't seem to realize how that applies here more than anything. Two more weeks though
The chadKima, the Makistacy, the cuteKima, the MakiBest!
>>282922449>>282921911>angel without skirtShan't read.
>>282922703I have barely seen any Kobeni art from Japanese artists since the movie released there. Even the cafe manager has gotten art. This ain't 2024 anymore
>>282922712>Fujimoto is aggressively heterosexualNot post his gay oneshots phase
>>282922723>Two more we-AAACK!

>>282922724I agree

>>282922913The hottest one
>>282922451CSM might become no.1 this weekend at this rate.
>>282922913Atrocious """art""" Fujimoto should have his fingers cut off
>>282922890Nice eye, detective.
>>282922737That makes sense, since she does pretty much nothing in that arc aside from prostrating in front of Reze.But Kobeni has gotten a ton of art over the years, if you just looked at the tags while knowing nothing about the series you'd think she plays a significant role in the story.
>>282922820Honestly I can see some not liking it. it already felt too much reading it weekly, I can only imaging how overwhelming it would be watching it.

>>282923280shitkima killed him
>>282923280On the beach with Makima and Aki
>>282923280Gun Devil>>282923311Makima was controlling him but she would not outright kill one of her puppets without a reason
why is makima the control devilshouldn't she be the conquest
>>282922611>Tfw i only remember the name of like 3 our of thesePart 2 is such a failure.
>>282923429>shadman>kobeni's brother>fire punch
>>282923407Fujimoto confirmed she killed Angel after using his years to make the spear>>282923413She is. Control is a mistranslation>>282923233CUTE
>>282923413Horsefus weren't a thing when Fujimoto was planning part 1Control always fit Makima better, her being conquest is basically a retcon that more or less works
>>282922702Fuck off faggot I fucking hate you Denji will live I hate you makimafags so fucking much holy fuck aaaaggh
>>282923042Kino is near?
>>282923502Pee...
we dont post shartkima ai pics here
>>282923413Makimas name is "Shihai" a word that means both control and conquest.
>>282923437Kima's kimas
>>282923042Part 2 if kino
>>282923496>Horsefus weren't a thing when Fujimoto was planning part 1Yes they were retard, the troonslator simply didn't know so xhe named her Control instead of Conquest. The Japanese name was always Conquest.
>>282922451I'm pretty optimistic and I wasn't expecting this.
The scholar army seems to have arrived
>>282923496That makes sense. "Control" works better as a fear for devil-based thematic purposes than conquest, but control wasn't one of the horsemen.
>>282923496retard
>>282923502>AIEEEE STOP SHOWING ME CANON MANGA PANELS>I HATE YOUUUUWhat incites a human to behave like this?
>>282923502Nice melty P, you always take the bait and prove them right
>>282923559LmaoIf you think part 2 was already planned when part 1 was beginning you are beyond hope
>>282923573Thread's savedIt was beginning to smell like Poopy here
>>282923573
>>282923597Makima was only revealed to be Control/Conquest by the end of part 1 retardbro.
>>282923559Yea, Fujimoto always had in mind the four horsemen.Makima even named them in part 1,twice!
>>282923561COMPLETE GLOBAL SATURATION
>>282923496>>282923574>Horsefus weren't a thing when Fujimoto was planning part 1Actually it was. Makima mentions the horsemen in part1 but she never says she is one of them. But it already was a theory back then, one that got confirmed in part2.
>>282923642Her character behavior since part 1 checks out with that, so it was very clearly plannedHer motivation was always planned because the original draft for the story was just Makima and Denji, Fujimoto confirmed himself that this is the core of what csm wasThen he realized when part 1 was about to finish he could expand on her even further to milk the story out so he dropped the "I want to delete death famine and war" line.
>>282923496>>282923597>the ''scholar'' in question
Fumiko slobbering all over my cock
Final day at the top of Japanese box-office was yesterday. Way less screenings next week too.
>>282923458Katana is one my favorite characters and I was excited for him to be in part 2... I really hope he has more to do
>>282923597Part 2 was planned during Reze arc as confirmed by both Fuji and his editor Lin in several interviews.
>>282923665In Japanese her devil name was the same they use for the Conquest Horseman so it was heavily implied she's one of them.
>>282923646Our heroes.
>>282923646>Makima even named them in part 1,twice!The future devil
>>282923665She never referred to them as "horsemen", only as things humanity would be better without. The horsemen concept absolutely did not exist in part 1.
>>282923732Perfection
>>282923738Speedreader-kun...
>>282923738>Ignore the "who are now here" that was Amanduh fucking it like usual.
>>282923665>>282923738The horsemen as the actual biblical concept of the horsemen were never mentioned in CSM at all. Just the devils that are part of the horsemen, and Makima was always called Conquest.
>>282923738>She never referred to them as "horsemen"She does. Read the manga.
We love speedreading here!
>>282923773>>282923774>English TLYou? Lost.
>>282923646>>282923665Horsemen scholars, you are mindbreaking.
Makima behaves like control>BUT SHE'S CONQUESTYes, she is, and that's retarded because she doesn't behave like conquest, she behaves like control.Fujimoto writing something doesn't make it good, we should agree on this at least after 120 charpters of shart poo
>>282923702Maybe he had the general idea with the horsemen but I doubt he had it all planned with how part 2 is developing.
>>282923819>part 2 hater is a makimafag brainletMany such cases
>>282923773>>282923774>Manga panelsAAAAIIIIEEEEEE save me P
>>282923777>The horsemen as the actual biblical concept of the horsemen were never mentioned in CSMIt was, you have the panel above you.>Makima was always called Conquest.Makima was always called Shihai, which is open to interpretation in terms of translation.
>>282923805Retard-kun...
>>282923834>part 2 hater is... 70% of japanese readers, without even counting those hatereading it
>>282923805Mokushiroku no Yonkishi = Four Knights of the Apocalypse
>>282923805>Doubling downSee >>282923853Dumb fucking Makimutt
>>282923777>The horsemen as the actual biblical concept of the horsemen were never mentioned in CSM at all.P never read Part 1? This literally says 4 horsemen >>282923853
>>282923819"Shihai" means the same damn thing in Japanese as Control AND Conquest.Western brains simply aren't capable of comprehending this.There would be no separate "Control Devil" in a CSM universe. Makima is it.
>>282923853I got ultra fucked by makischolars...
>>282923819Again, being called Shihai kinda implies that she represents both control and conquest, another possible TL is domination. She was about to take control of the whole world and rule it like a god. If that doesn't represent "Conquest" well I dunno what would.>>282923834Everyone with a brain is a part2 hater, retard.
>>282923896I stand corrected, which makes the retarded makimafag even more braindead
>>282923912The same also goes for "Kiga"/Fami who is both Hunger and Famine Devil.The Japanese words simply have more widespread meanings.
>>282923912>>282923935You say this yet anytime someone calls her control a melty occurs
>>282923842Scholar.
>>282923942>I stand correctedHow about you read the manga you defend so much?
>>282923935>Everyone with a brain is a part2 hater, retard.Factually accurate statement without any room for dispute.
>>282923942That's obviously falseflag
>>282923896>P never read Part 1?A bit late to notice but yeah
>>282923934Many such cases right now
>>282923972I'm not the one saying Makima is not Conquest though
>>282923746Our heroes
>>282923935>Everyone with a brain is a part2 hater, retard.
>>282923956Because Westerners are retarded.If you read Fuji's interviews on Makima, you'd quickly notice that the word "Conquest" makes no sense in the context that he's talking about.That doesn't mean she isn't Conquest, she is, but "Shihai" is simply a more flexible word that's can be interpreted in multiple ways depending on the context.
>>282923777>The horsemen as the actual biblical concept of the horsemen were never mentioned in CSM at all.P proving he is an speedreader once again...
>>282923874>Mokushiroku no YonkishiSounds pretty hardcore.
>>282924139Ohayo
>>282923690hollywood broswhere are our movies
Finally watched the movie. Wanted to watch it day 1 but got swamped with life. Absolute kino. Can't wait for the blue-ray release so I can torrent it. The designs and color palette is so much better than the Anime holy shit. They really messed up season 1. It seems, judging from the adaptions of Fujimoto's other works, they seem to finally get the vibe correctly relative to the Manga.If anybody asks, no nipples. Reze was fully naked though albeit a barbie doll.
reze saved fujimoto reputation
>>282924227The Dragon will have his revenge some day
>>282924225>If anybody asks, no nipples. atleast we know how they're shaped
>>282924275...in roblox
Denji's wives.
>>282924312Conquestbros!? WTF is this? Why didn't Fuji put our bitch on the group cover???
>>282924332Nayuta's taking the picture dumbass.And seething while she's taking it.
>>282924332she was the black sheep of the family
>>282924332Controlbros*
>>282924332>Not one of Denjis wivesWe are the winners here.
>>282924391Yes exactly.Makima was only turned into Denji's poop instead.
>>282924362>the black sheep of the familyPretty sure that is Yoru. Is the only one comically evil.
>>282924407Conquest, twice flushed
>>282924407A fate preferable to being Scumji's battered wife
>>282924391Being with Denji is a fate worse than death.
>>282924407Indeed Scatwer bro. Don't forget to mention Powy got turned into Denji's pee too!
>>282924421>Shiga with a mouthful of Denji's cum.
>>282924423>>282924426Irrefutable facts.
>>282924407The kimafags really didn't like this one.
>>282924423Asabros we will turn Scumji into the battered husband instead.
>>282924495
>>282924441Powerfag hated this one, boss.
>>282924516CHAIRji was honestly the most based Denji variant
>>282924516This moment was funny as fuck.
>>282924516>>282924516The motorized dildoJI is inevitable
>>282924415Yet she only wants to erase Death (allegedly) while Makima wanted to erase the whole lot of them.Makima clearly had some type of complex.
>>282924551What if that's a Yoru chainsaw weapon?If Asa accepts Yoru as being a part of herself, than she might be able to weaponize her.
>>282924551>Yoshida is dead>Asa has to satisfy herself with a Denji Dildo insteadGrim
>>282924495That was Yoru's role in the last 3 arcs.
>>282924391You weren't supposed to point that out...
Hmmm
>>282924495She will once she destroys shotaji
>>282924605Denji should have fucked this cute Devil.
>>282924569Makima was right when she said the world would be better without her sisters.Death wants to keep human civilization alive to eat pizzaFamine is a schizo but she wants to save humans.Yoru is LMEOW NUCLEAR ETERNAL WAR LETS GOOOOO
>>282924516denji's breaking of the chair was symbolic and a way of telling asa to stop being a cuck in her own bodyasa fell down in tears, moved by this display of deep empathy
>hurr durr I forgot my medsWe know. This is why you need help.
>>282924569Yoru wants to erase death to makes things worseMakima wants to erase devils to make things betterBoth are wrong but only one is comically evil
>>282924635this pic is more accuratemakima however is a fool who has no idea that there are worse things than death for humans
>>282924580>What if that's a Yoru chainsaw weapon?While I don't discard that it would be another weapon she would make after the CSM weapon. I believe that Death will get erased and that can only happen if CSM gets weaponized.
>>282924651
>the worst case scenario for MakimaShe was under control/influence of Death in the Part 1>the best case scenario for MakimaShe genuinely loved humanity and was ready to die for it but couldn't say it directly.
>>282924677>makima however is a foolShe is the smartest sister tho.
>>282924695>She was under control/influence of Death in the Part 1That would be a cheap plot twist that adds nothing to the story but shock for a week or two, and retroactively makes a cool antagonist worseFujimoto has his hack moments, but I hope he's not that far gone
>>282924606>DestroysOh, Asa will "destroy" shotaji alright.
>>282924695>loved humanity and was ready to die for itMakima is no cuck with hero delusions, she is a selfish anti-hero. She genuinely loved humanity but they were never above her pursuit of happiness.
>>282924680I'm not sure if any of the Horsemen can actually control Pochita.
Bucky=Denji
>>282924771>with hero delusionsThe oppositeHer selfish search of happiness was covered up by her delusions abolut saving humansShe thought she was doing all of that because it was a necessary sacrifice and whatnot when she was really coping about not being hugged enough
>>282924712that's not saying much honestly based on what we know about the rest.
>>282924788They can, the only reason Pochita killed Makima is because he considered she was going to use his powers in the wrong way.
>>282924807Asa will squash Shotaji with her big fat ass.
>>282924730This is why I said this is the worst case scenario.>>282924771She said that she wanted to be eaten by Pochita. So it's possible that 4 sisters together could cause some kimd of cataclysm. So she wanted to prevent it. Didn't matter if it by the cost of her life or lives of her sisters
>>282924391Based Conquestgod
>>282924836Makima couldn't control him though.Yoru has failed to weaponize him several times.Death and Famine so far haven't tried, but if Death could turn him into a pawn, I think she would.
>>282924857
>>282924876She cute
>>282924827>she was really coping about not being hugged enoughThat is true but I wouldn't say she was delusional about wanting to make humans happier, she followed a "necessary evil" mentality. She was right about that.
>>282924870The Horsefu's will all awaken together and summon their father, the King of Terror, Satan,
>>282924857I will only accept Denji dying if that's how it happens.
>>282922994>>282923167NTA but the vol. 22 got a massive boost as well.
>>282924892>Makima couldn't control him though.Because Denji saved Pochita just in time.>Yoru has failed to weaponize him several times.Plotconvenience, is not her role as a character.>if Death could turn him into a pawn, I think she would.Death said that she doesn't believe CSM can stop the apocalypse, but Yoru can. I belive her with that one. And that explains why she never tried to kill Pochita but keeps making him fight with Yoru.
>>282921911>Fujimoto folding the knee to fujosGood, now revive them
>>282924928Denji will suffocate under Asa's big butt.
>>282924923>That is true but I wouldn't say she was delusional about wanting to make humansYeah it was her hobby but like, a coping mechanism hobbyShe was basically doing picrelIf she had normal relationships with humans she wouldn't have gone trough the ideological deep end
>>282925010so be it
>>282924876Precious little flower who can do no wrong.
>>282924988But Death is trying to empower Pochita/Chainsaw Man as well as the War Devil.Otherwise, what is the fucking point of all those Chainsaw Man zombies and copies running around?
>>282925030>If she had normal relationships with humans she wouldn't have gone trough the ideological deep endNayuta basically confirms that, one you give this devil her daily dosis of hugs she doesn't give a shit about humans anymore. Based
>>282924985lol
>>282925057>But Death is trying to empower Pochita/Chainsaw Man as well Wasn't that just Nayutas interpretation?>what is the fucking point of all those Chainsaw Man zombies and copies running around?It ruins Denjis reputation, what makes him unhappy, necessary to summon CSM Black.
Makima's entire drama gets heavily undermined by Death existing and having a bunch of human friends with no issues whatsoever.
Asa has an ugly hairstyle
>>282925143SpeedreaderkunDeath is not the control devil, she doesn't have an issue forming equal relationships. If anything, death is the great equalizer that unites everyone, literally the oppositeMakima's issue is that she is a control freak, not a devil
>>282925150
>>282925057Death apparently already regards Denji as a "precious pawn". Clearly she believes she can manipulate him without needing to turn him into an actual pawn.Killing someone is probably more of a last resort because the pawn power is a budget store ability with restrictions.
>>282924605
>>282924391Based
>>282925143>>282924407the schizo hated these ones; the melty has gotten intensified
>>282925192Death pawnifying Fami immediately was kind of a shitty move of her, what a terrible big sis.
>>282925150Yoru...
Before kissing my ring introduce yourself. Let's see if you deserved it.
Never forget.Maki > Reze
>>282924876Ugly troon and irrelevant
>>282925172Death should've just slapped Makima around until she stopped acting retarded. Same thing for Yoru.
>>282925230Death was just trying to protect her friends at the school from her schizo sister.
>>282925150I think it suits her ugly face and body and personality.
>>282925298I only see Fami taking a selfie with someone she SAVED from a terrible fate
Ok now STOP THAT
>>282925172He hated this lesson, scholar.
>>282924876Her powers are really cool
>>282925344Yeah it's a really ugly hairstyleYoru's better but Yoru's face is ugly as well with all the scars

Maybe this is a dumb question, but if the manga artwork and the writing went downhill because Fujimoto lost his assistants, why didn't he just get new assistants? You'd think Shonen Jump could get him assistants, right?Or is he currently working with new assistants, and the manga just sucks regardless?
The last time Asa smiled was in Aging Devil arc, when she was having a mental breakdown over being trapped again.

>>282926193Asa killing Denji
>>282926066it's not because of assistants, but deadlines. he drew his best art with his current assistants.everyone pretty much agrees his art peaked with early p2 and the one shots he did during hiatus.there's just a difference working at your own pace instead of trying to draw a manga weekly/biweekly.the assistants have only ever drawn backgrounds for him, and the backgrounds still look fine. characters were always drawn by fuji.
>>282926316>on-modelJust screenshot the manga pages duh

>>282926316>Its difficult to chose a pic in my 12000 kimas folderSuffering from success...
>>282926327Oh ok. That makes sense.
Since Fujimoto confirmed he always planned for Asa to be a bait-and-switch protagonist, I think he fucked up by giving her too much protagonism early on.A decoy protagonist can definitely work, but you can't keep it ambiguous for too long who the actual protagonist is. If you spend too long with the decoy protagonist or give them too much agency, the audience might get more attached to that character than with your actual MC and you don't want that.Tsumi to Batsu no Spica (pic rel) is a great example of how to do it right.>Set up as a romance story about a normal teacher getting roped up with his cute but crazy student>The teacher turns out to be a piece of shit who killed a child and his own pet cat to protect his image. Spica, the main girl, tricks him into killing himself by drinking poison. It turns out Spica is the actual main character, and the manga is really an episodic crime thriller about a telepathic high school girl murdering serial killers a la Dexter. The teacher was just the first antagonist Spica takes out.It's made very clear who the story is actually about only a few chapters in. No ambiguity on what the reader is in for.If Fujimoto kept the POV on Denji after chapter 102, this wouldn't be a problem. But instead he brought the POV back to Asa and made her the focus for the next 20-ish chapters. It also seemed like they were setting up some kind of future growth for her with the chicken dream and the guilt-based powers. So people got the impression that she was the ACTUAL new protagonist, which made it confusing when she got sidelined so hard. This was obviously not a misconception exclusive to the Western fanbase considering that Fujimoto was directly asked about this in the interview.Asa should have just been a supporting character who comes in and out of Denji's story while dealing with her own shit. At least that way her lack of screentime wouldn't feel out of place.
>>282926460Stories can work with multiple protagonistsThat was not the issue
>>282926460What's your point?
>>282926327>there's just a difference working at your own pace instead of trying to draw a manga weekly/biweekly.He has much more time now than in Part 1 , he can take breaks whenever he wants on J+

>>282926524>Stories can work with multiple protagonistsPart2 doesn't have multiple protagonists tho. Its just Denji.
>>282926593
>>282926528its just microdick schizo babble
>>282926588Same homie
>>282926588We know, Asabro.
>>282926390when he drew stuff like fire punch and csm p1, he didn't give a shit about his health and pushed himself to meet deadlines without sleep.nowadays he keeps the drawing to 6 hours a day while taking breaks and exercising.he has admitted that due to his lack of traditional training to be a manga artist (he took lessons to be an oil painter instead), he simply lacks the technique to draw fast.what we see now is the technique he has learned, to draw fast. it looked really ugly when he first started using it mid-way through p2, but it's gotten a bit better since.
>>282926593>>282926618ThroupleDenji is so lucky
>>282926645
>>282926460The problem Asa wasn't a decoy protagonist and in fact that was simply following the story from her POV during early Part 2 also Fujimoto told to people multiple times that Denji will still be the protagonist of Part 2 before he came out. He never did a MGS2 with Asa at all, he did something more akin to Ultimate Spider-Man game where Spider-Man and Venom have their own focus, the majority of the confusion came from people using the character profiles of the volumes as some sort of "who is a main character and who is a supporting character" when character profiles aren't meant to be that.

>>282926528Too much time was spent with Asa and she was given too much agency early on.If she was always meant to be a side character (and that's undeniably what she became; let's not kid ourselves), she shouldn't have been written as a main character in the first few arcs.
>>282926901Right, let me ship Asa with the girl whose fans despise Asa and make fun of her constantly.
>>282926858this dude is like one of those japanese holdouts fighting ww2 decades after it was already over

>Right, let me s-ZzZzZzZzzZzzz
I couldn't date someone like Reze. I don't know what to talk about with her. Asa suits me better but I'm afraid she can be quite clingy.
>>282927034>the main antagonistis Denji
>>282926858>Who gives a shit about Korea?I mean, at this rate, it's most likely going to gross 20+ million in Korea alone. That's probably slightly more than the entire budget of the movie itself. It's not like Mappa gets more than 20-30% of the cut, but that's still more than decent and definitely much more than they expected. CSM will probably end its run in the top 5 most popular anime movies of all time in Korea. Some are expecting it to reach 3 million sold tickets over there.
I know the roads down which your life will driveI find the key that lets you slip insideKiss the girl, she’s not behind the doorBut you know I think I recognize your faceBut I’ve never seen you before
>>282926987I disagree, Asa never had too much agency. It's not about being side character, a label like that doesn't explain how poorly Fujimoto wrote her. She has too little control, Yoru hardly ever lets Asa be, so those early arcs are good for showing who's being abused and assaulted, if Asa was a flat secondary character, Yoru's villainy wouldn't be as impactful.

>>282926681>was simply following the story from her POV during early Part 2If this was his intent, then he failed at that.In Sherlock Holmes, Watson is literally Holmes' assistant who is helping Holmes do his job. Watson is the deuteragonist while Holmes is the protagonist.In Dark Gathering, Keitaro is mainly trying to support Yayoi in her ghost-hunting missions. The story is mainly from Keitaro's POV, but Yayoi is the protagonist because she is the one who drives the plot. He's the Watson to her Holmes.Majin Tantei Nogami Neuro? Same thing. Neuro is the detective who actually solves mysteries and Yako is the assistant who supports him. The story is from Yako's POV, but Neuro is the main character.Asa meanwhile was doing her OWN shit for the first 3 arcs. Denji was involved, sure, but the Justice, Aquarium, and Falling arcs focused way more on Asa's problems than they did Denji's. Hell, Asa was the one who straight-up saved the day during the Aquarium arc. HER problems were the main focus, not Denji's. She obviously was not intended to be a protagonist, but Fujimoto fucked up by accidentally giving her too much agency/focus.>also Fujimoto told to people multiple times that Denji will still be the protagonist of Part 2 before he came outHis pre-serialization statements clearly do not matter here. If they did, people would not have asked him "Hey was this character meant to be the new protagonist?"

Look at this fucking BEAST! HEROji represents the absolute peak of human resilience. You can take EVERYTHING from him; his home, his family, even his purpose in life; but he will still find a way to survive and cling to life while others would just give up! That's why Denji is the motherfucking GOAT!

>>282927740>Real Denjibros love Yoru...Of course we do
>>282927424Because people can be fucking retarded, the japanese side didn't had this confusion on who the main character was due knowing that Denji was still the protagonist before and after Part 2 came out. Like for example there are people to this day who think Aragorn was supposed to be the main character of the Lord of the Rings despite not being the case. Alongside i saw people pushing this idea of Asa being the protagonist due the character profiles and Asa doing her own stuff doesn't change the fact that Denji was still the protagonist because he is the reason Asa and Yoru entered the plot.

It's very easy to hate her for what she does to Denji/Aki/Power, but she has enough humanity and depth that you can read into moments like her crying at the movie and maybe find some degree of tragedy in her story, even if you don't forgive her.What does Yoru have?
