Just like Fire Punch, Chainsaw Man becomes meaningless absurdist garbage. There is no actual story after Part 1, there is no lesson, there are no ideals, just abstract, complete boringness that only entertains plebians of the lowest decorum. Truly a dog shit manga to the end.

Fire Punch was ALWAYS meaningless, absurdist garage. It never pretended to be otherwise. The villain's motivation was literally filming a Star Wars movie.

Denji preferred being a city mouse and it turns out he was unhappy living a peaceful life because he liked overcoming problems and feeling like he earned his survival. Country mice like Kobeni are the opposite

Heroes are people that have to prefer causing themselves problems over having peace for themselves. Because Denji could not choose between being Chainsaw Man and being a human, Denji could not have peace for himself because he wanted to be loved as a hero

Being a hero sucks is the moral

The only way any of it makes sense if you take the view that it's essentially a 'Bad End'. Denji's actions led to this outcome, him continuously fucking up every single decision is what produced his own demise. Him being a scumfucking sex-obsessed piece of shit is not an accident, the entire storyline of Part 2 was about his refusal to ever grow up and be an adult. He refuses to actually stick to being Nayuta's guardian, he breaches his contract with Power, he can't even be fucked to listen to Fami's explanation of his plan because he's a hedonistic child. Fujimoto's grand design is that you can't "choose both choices" and get away with it. Even at the end, all he can think about is a threesome with Yoru/Asa, and so he gets what's coming to him.

It's a dogshit storyline but it was consistent and it was leading up to this. There was no kino twist waiting around the corner to redeem it all, we were watching a train crash in real time and here's the conclusion. That's all.
>>
>>286632404
If it's ending here without Part 3 then I'd consider it the worst anime/manga sequel I've ever seen. Even worse than E7 Ao.

Part 3 hopers..
Answer me this? Why the fuck would there be a part 3? What’s the conflict? All horseman sisters have been introduced. Death was eaten, War was the shitty poor Makima big bad that jobbed, Famine is a spaz, Conquest got ack’ed and kicked out of the story. Hell? Who cares. Primal like aging and falling jobbed. Darkness can’t carry that. World ending prophecy? The world did end and seems to be reset due to Pochita suiciding for some unknown fucking reason that doesn’t even matter. For the last chapter You’ll get all the past characters like power in some shitty cameo panel form Nolan inception style and maybe a hint of Denji and Asa having an undeserved happy resolution as a couple if Fuji is feeling generous for happy ending fags, but not that it matters. The ending would be underserved and all the potential has been squandered. Nothing else is left? Pochita’s actual identity? Maybe answered, but sure as hell not gonna be used as a reason for a whole third run of this run down crap. Face it Part 3 fags. It’s over. Fuji is probably just burnt and tossing in the towel. This chapter alone is kinda hinting towards that in some faggy meta way

Is this a prank? Fujimoto will reveal next chappy "haha actually Pochita was wrong and caused a big problem, tune in for part 3 to see how /ourhero/ will get out of this one!" right?
It can't end like this, right? There is no way. Died offscreen to a fucking bug? Made all his trials and tribulations canonically pointless?

It's people like you who deserve a violent kick in the balls.
People don't love stories to experience the same shit they've been living through, they love stories because they provide a window into another person's experience in another world. They don't look at heroes and go "wow, so unrealistic! Nobody would ever be able to overcome those burdens so easily!", They get motivated by their struggles and find inspiration to tackle their own problems, even if they may not be as extreme as the characters they love. There is nothing novel about believing it's impossible to make connections achieve your dreams because there are plenty of fuckers like you that already exist. True courage is recognizing how the odds are stacked against you and pushing through regardless, where even if you don't fulfill every last goal you have you'll find yourself living a much better life than you ever were as a cynical little BITCH of a human being.
FUCK you, and FUCK your cynicism you try to smuggle off as realism.

Oh, no, I don't have a problem with the ending. Watching Denji refusing to change at every opportunity and things ultimately getting so bad Pochita has to erase himself in a final gambit to give him a life he can enjoy almost makes all the slog to get to here worth it.
I just can't stand people praising Fujimoto for making a "realistic" protagonist and missing the point completely of why we root for characters in fiction (especially shonen). Being a cynic doesn't make you smart.

Ideally they'd fire him, get a new writer, and make a reader's poll asking from which chapter the story should get rewritten, retconning out all the garbage. It should be illegal for any writer to sell something this bad.
>>
>>286637013
Fuji threatened to publish the ending to P1 on Twitter if the magazine didn't allow him to publish it in the way he wanted. He can probably do whatever he wants at this point.
It's not like it's the only clusterfuck of an ending we've had.

I can see him just getting burned out. Making a manga is hard already, having a fanbase hailing you as a revolutionary for it just makes things worse.

Everything is forgiven if for some reason Reze and denji are living together next chapter.

Ill reserve final judgement for the last chapter but I actually enjoyed it and the ending makes sense, also having a good laugh at dumdums that thought a series thata main trait is "kill everyone but the mc" would have a happy ending. Shit at this point I wouldnt be surprised if big Denden dies of his heart condition just to fuck them even more. Forcing a part 3 would be lame.

Nah. In the new world, Denji's still a hungry child who chainsaws devils to pay his dad's debt.
Final chapter may have the only slight off the tangent. Yakuzas realize the following devils are too much for someone like him and assign him a female companion that happens her dad was killed and didn't pay a debt for a loan that mysteryously disappeared.
Cycle repeats, a deja vu is felt and they are at each others' throats again and are always clashing over who has the most miserable life. Unlike their previous lives, they utterly hate each other, but are lowkey happy about having a rival in unhappiness. End.

Not to this level.

Asa was a mistake. I liked her, but the story should've focused on Denji and Nayuta instead of her. That's my opinion.
Reze could've played Asas role as a damaged girl now free from control.
Plot should've focused on Denji balancing devil fighting life, school and relationships, not as a side plot. Devil hunter agency and Hybrids should've been main antagonists and Barem as the main rival because he was the most entertaining one in part 2 and served as a mirror to Denji who's still obsessed with Makima.

Instead Denji just stagnated and stayed sex obsessed retard, we got Quasimodo prophecy as main plot, Hybrids that dissappeared, horsemen that were boring except Yoru, CSM church and fire devil bullshit that still nobody understands or cares about, and Asa that was dropped as a character in middle of part 2.
Wtf was even the point? Seriously
There was this mystery about Kiga and the church, fakesaw man teasing, Barem working with or seperate from Kiga, Famine was half-assed as a Kobeni wannabe, etc. All didn't go nowhere.
The only shit I liked about the plot was Devil Hunter descent into corruption after Makima, that's the highlight of part 2 for me.
The main plot that was pushing through Part 2 was the apocalypse prophecy, and it all amounted to Pochita reset.
It's all shit and I'm disappointed , part 2 was a mess

Part 1 is still a masterpiece and part 2 never happened.
Denji still kicking ass, raising Nayuta into his perfect femdom waifu.
Eating good grub and eventually opened a dog breeding company.
Nayuta rebuilds Makima's organization in the secret and keeps her family protected.
It's all kino and obvious development, no need to even make part 2.

Wrong. It's insane how much in common CSM fans and JJK fans have in common, specially when it comes to reading comprehension.
Denji was never just sex-obsessed. We knew that since he refused to have sex with Himeno. He's actually in need of intimacy. He projects that as being horny, but intimacy is what he's truly after.
>He refuses to actually stick to being Nayuta's guardian
No, he actually liked being Nayuta's guardian and what happened was out of his control.
>he breaches his contract with Power
No, that's just Fujimoto leaving loose ends. That contract doesn't even come up in all CSM 2, we have only Fujimoto to blame.
>Fujimoto's grand design is that you can't "choose both choices" and get away with it.
That's what you got it from reading it? I mean, at least you got something from this mess. Because I didn't think CMS was about this at all, there was no indication, no themes, no nothing as far as I remember. It's also pretty weird to place CSM 2 message on Denji when we followed Yoru/Asa for most of CSM 2.
Let's face it: Fujimoto is just tired of writing/drawing CSM 2 and he's just axing it. Never in a billion years you'd read the first part of CSM and think "man, I think Denji actually doesn't like steak, doesn't like jelly, doesn't like a roof under his head, doesn't like women... I think he deep down likes being alone in that small old shed eating cigarettes and dangerous odd jobs for a living."
It's almost like he spent the entire first part trying to get the bare minimal and ends the first part actually wanting MORE than the bare minimal.

Aside from getting money from him, he was free to do what he wanted. He had nothing and was happy with what he had because he didn't know any better.
He wasn't going to ever have any better without Makima meddling. He'd have never met anyone from public safety. With Makima in his life, he was never going to find happiness. What he had was always going to be temporary. I'm starting to think you two never read the manga, yourselves. It's spelled out in plain English.

The story focused too much on Denji, mainly the latter half where things went to shit. The actual good stuff in part 2 is the first few volumes which are mainly from Asa/Youru's perspective.

Denji's limited development is more reasonable when he was a side character, his horniness is much more charming in the school and falling devil arcs where it is counterbalanced by agency from Asa. A powerful chaotic cockblocker like Nayuta is also best used sparingly.

Should that even matter.
As far as we are concerned, Denji's end will be his death. And he'll die happy dreaming about the things he could never attain in life.
Either he dies from his congenital illness or suffers the same fate as Timeranger's Naoto (a character who also was a cog that wanted the highest heaven and when he reached it, the system stripped him away from it, and only could ever find his freedom and happiness in his death): being killed by a cog or a random. But in both cases, he'll feel the happiest while seeing his life fade away. Probably hallucinate with the dreams he clinged onto as a final dream. Because in the end, those dreams will also fade away when he stops existing.

I hope Fujimoto gets some rest and comes back with something new. It's clear CSM, and likely the semi-biweekly schedule, were burning him out hard. It was also getting way too long already.

Fujimoto should be the kind of mangaka to churn out dozens of shorter stories, not keep doing the same franchise for a decade.

Part 2 overall was terrible executed as a manga but I can't really find fault with the ending in a general thematic sense. It's perfectly congruent with everything that went on with Denji's character, and the story in general. Shit, last chapter even the original iconic CHAPTER ONE line was denied from him. It can't be clearer that this is supposed to show Denji crumbled under the pressures of adulthood, without a Makima to grant him the path to character growth on a silver platter.

Whether this is a setup for a part 3 "redemption arc" or just a bad ending in general, I'm fine with either (I'd rather Fuji leave CSM for good and do something else though). But this doesn't excuse the 100 chapters of mediocre plotting, paneling, lack of tone, lack of stakes, etc. that we had to endure.

>>286635508
Basically this.
Denji is only alive because he made it his Heaven to dream.
The problem is that dreaming is now the only thing that keeps him going. Keeps him looking forward to tomorrow.
When he doesn't have anything to dream about, he falls rapidly into anhedonia and depression where he has zero interest in anything.
Just getting a daughter or girlfriend wouldn't be enough to change that, because fundamentally Denji is someone that needs to struggle to be fulfilled because it is only in the middle of winning a difficult battle for something or in progress towards a major, that he's happy.

A thing people forgot.
Pochita has the ability to erase concepts, but not to reset the universe.
Maybe the concept of Chainsaw Man will be forgotten, but Denji will remember other things.
And probably the ending will be more about not getting gfs or sex or shit, but a partner you can chase the same light/dreams with. Someone you can be miserable with and still find a common happiness amidst that misery.

That would be accurate if the tone matched, but Pochita is being pretty positive about it all.

There's no real evidence either way. Some people will cherrypick years-old quotes as if that proves anything. Part 2's reveal was a fakeout, which has led some to believe that part 3 will be announced in the same way, but there's no actual evidence of that happening either. It's anyone's guess. I wouldn't anticipate an actual answer before the end unless chinks leak the next chapter AND it has a part 3 announcement written into it.

Epilogue chapter shows the sniper was actually manipulated by someone who knew Denji better than anyone.

Riku's kept "alive" by the 2 kouhais and his mental state is in a very fragile situation.
Karami Zakari was also bitter.
Shigatsu... oooh godfucking Shigatsu, Kousei is now forced to put up with Tsubaki while slowly bleeding bc muh Kaori isn't there anymore.
AKB49 had the MC giving up on his oneitis, being resigned to be a konbini clerk after also rejecting a position in tbe showbiz and resigned to settle with the bitch who was stalking him.
Oyasumi Punpun... the king of bitter and spiteful ends. A reminder Punpun's a corpse without purpose forced to interact with the shit people who abused him and having to take care of a child who isn't his.
I'd say we have had plenty of bitter and spiteful cynical endings.

"Need" is a strong word, but I'd say the world is a better place thanks to the introduction of Yoru, Fami and Lil' D.

>I think it's western postmodern nihilism rubbing off on Japan
Japan's nihilistic by nature, they don't need to be influenced by westoids when they embraced their extinction and would prefer to disappear over preserve themselves thru race-mixing. Their nihilism is actually in a terminal stage IV cancer level.

Fujimoto needs a tard wrangler.
He's suffering from his own success because editors see how successful CSM part 1 was and assume he knows what he's doing.

Japs actually have better birthrates than most western and Asian countries once you remove migration from the equation, so natalist jokes actually have the opposite effect.
>>
>>286644477
Fujimoto specifically is just a massive westaboo.

Japanese readers are wondering.
If in this Pochita/Chainsaw-less world there's still that chopped tree, then who did cut it?
Maybe someone is watching Denji, or even making sure he doesn't suffer more than he already did.

2025 birthrates in Japan were the lowest of the whole east asian territory, and they had the biggest populatoon shrink that year.

Afawk, Worst korea birthrates improved this same year by comparison.

>"you wanted bad times and suffering"
Inb4 part 2 end is Denji realizing bad times and suffering wasn't what made him happy, but it's too late to turn time back. Fujimbo makes some merciful move by bringing Asa back and making the end as open as possible, but hinting at 2 people who thought they were the happiest when miserable realizing misery can be more bearable if there's people who aim for a same unreachable light.

Its common in every fandom. People love the content so any criticism they view as an attack on them. What they dont understand is that criticism is good to keep the writers from phoning it in and keeping the quality in check.
Seen it so many times, fanbase obnoxiously defends and labels any criticism as hate and then they are surprised when the whole thing turns into shit.
Thats why i respect the japs for the S1 boycott, they didnt like it and showed it. As a result they got a better product for it. While most times people just bend reality to defend obvious flaws

All of you overreacting to this chapter exactly in the way Fujimoto wants to ragebait you makes me believe nearly all people in this world are subhuman non-thinking actual cattle. Any of you currently malding over this chapter should be embarrassed by your reaction. Here's a thing ChatGPT wrote to me a while ago about a different manga which completely applies here:

>Before declaring this the worst ending ever written:
>wait for the final chapter.
>Penultimate chapters are often deliberately shocking cliffhangers.
>If the final chapter still leaves every thread unresolved and confirms the narrative erasure, then yes — criticism will be fair.
>But right now the structure looks suspiciously like a setup for a twist resolution.

It's unreal how you faggots are more interested in posting your gay emotional overreactions instead of fucking waiting for the last chapter.
None of you are fucking human beings.
You are all unthinking subhuman cattle with perpetual L takes.

Japan has been nihilistic since the end of WWII. They had a brief stint of hopeful optimism in the 70s and the 80s but their economy bursting stopped that.

imagine keeping up with this shit for the entirety of part 2. actually raped kek

>>286640302
Part 2 was actually good when it focused on Asa
It almost immediately stopped being good and gradually got worse and worse in every aspect when it started focusing on Denji

If you think the next chapter will announce Part 3, that's one thing. If you think the next chapter will address every single plot thread, you are unfathomably retarded.

I'm saying none of those things.
What I wrote was:
>It looks like a twist ending.
>If the last chapter doesn't announce part 3 or wrap up anything in part 2, then criticism WILL be valid then.
>Either way, emotionally overreacting to a twist chapter before the final chapter is exactly how the author wants to ragebait you, and is gay.

I could have rewritten that quote and called it my own and none of you would know the difference. The argument would be exactly the same.

If the only thing you can respond to is that it came from ChatGPT instead of whether the point is true, then you got baited and you are doing the exact NPC behavior I was accusing you of via appeal to authority.

Doesn't need to. I am a sinner and do not deserve anything. God will have the glory. But temporally while we try to create the best we can, without hope nothing good can happen. All those working against you constantly hope you don't notice or rebel. If they didn't have hope they wouldn't even try. They realize that hope is what gave them victory over the masses, and that because the masses can't even hope for a better future, they've already won without firing a single shot.

>>286644477
Bingo. Fujimoto wasn't even a trailblazer here, Madoka, Devilman, Evangelion, and many other works in the past already were doing stuff like this. Most of the people aren't able to identify this spiritual malady, but this is one of the reasons why Japanese writing typically sucks so much ass. Pointless misery with no clear moral goal always produces inferior art.
