Aki's little brother. He survived Gun devil in this timeline. Now he joined PS as a part-time devil hunter, attending school in the morning and doing devil hunting at night to avenge for his brother Aki. He'll meet Asa at school and they'll have a date at the aquarium. And you can't even say that this is impossible right?He grew up looking exactly like Aki but with a warmer and friendlier personality btw
>>287509508Asa deserves a bf like this
I don't care about Aki's brotherPost Asa
>>287509544Ok.Yoru or nuWar will find Asa and make a proper contract with her since Yoru loves Asa. Now Asa can use War power to make any weapons any time she wants. And she'll get another California contract too which will make her basically immortal. She'll defeat nuKOT with a chainsaw made from ... someone idk. Then she'll marry Aki's brother or Yoshida and have 3 kids all of whom she'll turn into immortal hybrids with her weapon devils.And you can't say this is impossible either.
>>287509508I liked the idea some anons made that Asa's classmates don't believe Asa claiming that Denji is a devil hunter or that even exists.
BRING ME PART 3/SEASON 2
>>287510207
>>287509508Part 3 SOON.
/csm/ really died after the last chappy, huh?
>>287510937I BELIEVE.
>>2875109604chan as a whole seems really slow right now.
>>287510979>slow right nowThat cope won't fly when I reply to you in under a minute
Truly, verily, dead.
>>287509508So why exactly does Part 2 treat Denji's CSM shenanigans like some kind of unhealthy vice he should let go of for his own sake? He's the best devil hunter on Public Safety's payroll. He defeated Gun and Control. Why do they want him to quit?
Accept my concession. I no longer love Power. It's all Mommykima in my head now. I got a girl and wanted her to be more boisterous and bratty. Didn't happen. Turned out she was just like Makima. So womanly. She tore my heart out. You win.
>>287511108Do you think Fujimoto was self-aware this page would become a meme while drawing it?
>>287511224Yoshida explained it pretty well at the start of the Church arc
>>287511284>hurr we don't need CSM anymoreWhich was bullshit
>>287511277from the recent t*itter autotranslate saga, I have come under the impression that JP memes and western memes have very little crossover, so no he did not expect this
>>287511277yeah
After the dust has settled, What's the verdict on the strongest horseman character?
>>287511224What Pochita meant was that Denji can never feel satisfied with whatever accomplishments being CSM or having sex with a girl will bring to him. So Denji's better return to the time when he still has nothing and thus still has the joys of dreaming.
>>287511438
>>287511438>dust settles>literally nothing standingCan't really discuss much since Fujimoto never fleshed out anything about the 4 horsemen.
>>287511224The problem is that being CSM fucking sucks regardless of the deeds of Pochita and Denji being positive or negative. Because Denji has a target on his back permanently that don't allow him to live happy this due everyone wanting to use him, ruin his life to bring CSM Black or want to kill him. Also Denji is using the identity of CSM as mental armor and way to avoid his issues, Denji being CSM is holding back his growth and preventing to enjoy his dreams when he reaches them, Pochita knew this very well and gave Denji another chance for him to be finally be happy without anyone using him for their plans or wanting to kill him.
Yoru did WHAT to Asa's body?!https://litter.catbox.moe/xmrok3dl1ugxfuz4.png
>>287511438>*shoehorns an Aryan in as a horsewoman so she can get lewds*I respect Fuji's hustle
>>287511438Put part 2 on her back
We need to rest.
>>287511810Mommykima...
>>287511631>Denji being CSM is holding back his growth and preventing to enjoy his dreams when he reaches themWrong. The reason Denji can never enjoy his dreams when he reaches them is that his brain is defective, Pochita says this quite clearly. So unless Pochita's reset gave Denji a new brain, the problem did not disappear and he's better off never reaching any of his dreams.
Do you guys think that Denji will be a future smoker in the new world?
How long will it be before the movie has a physical release?
>>287511912Are- are you T-bagging the Asa?
Nayuta owes me a footjob
>>287511903Is this really the way this page got translated? No wonder you niggers were so confused.
>>287511631>without anyone using himHe is being used by everyone in this new world though.And everyone trying to ruin his life was not the main issue here cause Denji actually loved pains and sufferings as he said in the fight with Miri. Denji is just a guy that can't be satisfied with anything that's all.
>>287512070At the beginning of p2 we already saw him being bored to death with his 'happy' normal life with Nayuta. This was confirmed further by him telling Nayuta to fuck off in the fight with the hybrids.
>>287512099And then he'd rather go to brothels instead of looking for Nayuta. That's his nature, not because of outside force.
The best is yet to come. Makima's anime in 2027!
>>287512030Tiramisu...
>>287512057I can't fucking read that bro
Mappa will IMPROVE Part 2Just consider the manga a rough early draft of the actual final product(anime)
It's impressive that fujimoto wrote an ending the entire world hated.
>>287509600>contract with her since Yoru loves AsaThe contract is MARRIAGE.
>>287512177All he had to say was>Sex won't fix your fuck ups and miserable lifeAnd all the readers never stopped seething since. Like, they blame all of this on Pochita, grow up.
>>287512128that too
>>287512177>the entire world hated.headcanon
>>287512057what's a better translation
I had a dream in which Asa and I were living together on some distant planet raising our little daughter, I remember some moments but I have a exhausting feeling that dream was very long.
>>287512590Asa will have a moment like this with Denji in the Aquarium arc
Nayuta controls Public Safety with an iron but fair fist.
That is so ridiculous. Who would ever want to be a dog?
>>287512057>デンジはね、地獄の中じゃなきゃ天国を見つけられない…最悪だけど最高な脳みそを持っていたんだよ>You see, Denji..... you had a brain that was the worst yet the best... the kind of brain that means you can’t find Heaven unless you are in Hell…Our dear AmandAH translated it as 'crappy' instead of 'worst', but it's not like she mistranslated it or anything. I don't see the problem.
>>287514143
>>287512198>>Sex won't fix your fuck ups and miserable lifeSex with Asaru pussy would
>>287512177What saved Denji's life in the end was him befriending Pochita, taking care of Power, killing Makima, and raising Nayuta. Otherwise he would've just died to Zombie again. It's not the worst message since it rewarded him for the good things he did throughout the story.
>>287511312Chainsaw Man undeniably made things worse
>>287515010The message wasn't important. People are pissed because the ending itself was a lazy universal reset that retconned the prior 231 chapters.
>>287515010it's impossible to think like that with what he's done in part 2 getting on the way. Took care of Power? So what, he didn't keep his promise. Killed Makima? So what, another big and badder guys came up and the world only got worse. Raising Nayuta? His choices killed her.And in the end he didn't even take accountability for any of that. He was just given a free pass into a "perfect" world by Pochita.
>>287515047The message is important. People who didn't understand it are the ones crying that the events of the manga didn't matter when they obviously did.
>>287515047>>287515081There's an interesting message in there, the execution is the problem. If this had been written better and with more lead-up, it would've been more acceptable. The sudden end that intentionally closed all chances to resolve any previous questions is what people hate. Because it just happens and unambiguously says "its over, I'm not explaining ANYTHING" it leaves a terrible feeling that leads people to believe that Fujimoto just gave up and wanted out from Chainsaw Man as a whole. That's probably true as well.
I still think it's unfair to Asaru that she didn't get fingered. Fuji is so selfish
>>287515068Part 2 Denji was a completely broken person from the very beginning, who never even once resembled his earlier self. But that change wasn't introduced in Part 2, but in Part 1 after he went to the Kishibe bunker. His CSM obsession was the cope that kept him going, and even though he did a few good things despite that, it was clearly a self-destructive path. People who saw Denji kill Aki to save a few innocent bystanders, then saw Denji caring only about showing off when fighting Yuko while students were dying left and right, and thought this meant Denji had developed in a positive way somehow.
>>287515081They didn't matter nearly enough.Power has an affinity for dogs now. Nayuta exists now but doesn't care about Denji in the same way. Is that seriously all there is? Asa's experiences and Part 2 as a whole definitely didn't matter though.
>>287515426>Is that seriously all there is?There's a pretty big change that you didn't list.
>>287515508Why does this matter? Also the Blood Devil looking EXACTLY like the body the Blood Fiend took over makes no sense.
>>287515535it matters because it pumps her up in the powerscaling and that's all that matters anyway.
>>287515564I doubt anyone with a functioning brain cares for powerscaling in CSM of all mangas
>>287515595Fights in csm are so short that power tends to be less important than tactics/wit. The only properly long fight that tried showing off powerscaling was by far the biggest slog, and it shows very well why that shit doesn't fly in this manga.
>>287515564What the hell are you even talking about? How does powerscaling relate at all to things carrying over into the nu timeline?
I hate women so much but im not gay. I hate men as equally
Denji, the strongest devil hunter alive, THE Chainsaw man > Kishibe (young) > Nayuta > Kishibe (old) > Aki > Kobeni > Power
>>287515508>>287515535Power has been referred to as just "Blood Devil' before. I don't think it's meant to be taken literally.
>Asa's experiences and Part 2 as a whole definitely didn't matter though.Notice how he cannot refute this
>>287515535>Why does this matter?Because Denji would've died if not for that.>Also the Blood Devil looking EXACTLY like the body the Blood Fiend took over makes no senseIt makes sense, and that outcome was foreshadowed even before Part 2 started, with the info about devil appearances being related to their behavior towards humans.>>287515734If you read her introduction in Part 1 and the one in the last chapter, the difference is pretty clear.
>>287515784
>>287515815>Because Denji would've died if not for that.Fiend Power could already handle the Zombie Devil back in part 1. Unless you're talking about her new ability to revive a human with blood?>It makes senseIt really doesnt. Fiend Power was possessing the corpse of a random dead human. There is no reason the Blood Devil should also be possessing the exact same body.
>>287509508General doesn't need to exist anymore btw
>>287516072Nothing needs to exist.
>>287516072rezes virginity no longer exists after getting gangbanged in russia by her officers while denji is somewhere plowing asa
>>287516072It won't soon. /csm/ went from having multiple bump limit threads a day to single threads taking multiple days. These threads are dying a slow, sad death befitting the dumpster fire that was part 2.
>>287515724New world's power levels Kishibe (old) > Yoshida> Kishibe(young)> Nayuta >>> Power >> Denji=Aki=Sawatari=Kobeni
Chainsaw man more like poopjeet brownman
>>287515815>>287516016Pochita 's erasure power didn't completely retcon everything, so this Power is the old Power, Blood devil possessing a corpse, just with a bit more experience carried on from past timeline. She's not a full form Blood devil.
>>287512198>Sex won't fix your fuck ups and miserable lifeTrue, but anyone above the age of 22 knows that. I guess it is a shounen.
>>287516249Many are saying this
>>287516016It does because that was what the promise she made with Denji was about, turning the Blood Devil into Power.Add to that the info about devil appearances, and the bit about Nyako liking Nayuta as much as he does Power despite never having met her, and Conquest being Nayuta instead of Makima, and the message is pretty clear.
>>287516285Fujimoto had Power namedrop herself as the Blood Devil, but I guess for someone who already failed to understand the last 100 chapters of the manga, being also unable to understand the ending is just to be expected.
>>287516380The PS used to call Asa the War devil.
Two thing can be true.Fujimoto intended this ending all along, and built the whole series towards it.And Fujimoto poorly executed the later parts of Part 2 as well as the ending.
So, what the fuck was the point of part 2?
I genuinely think that Fujimoto regrets making Chainsaw Man.Or at least, Part 2.
>fuji intended this, fuji intended thatNo, he just lost interest and wrote himself into a corner. He doesn't care about CSM.
>>287516448Denji humiliation ritual
>>287516448Unaddressed trauma kills the world, women don't matter, have your dog commit suddoku for your sins, and get a perfect dream world in exchange.
>>287516303So what is something that can fix one's life
>>287516380Remember when a certain schizo thought this panel was supposed to be Pochita asking for the blood devil and not blood to heal himself?
>>287516475>>287516499Fuji said he always intended for Denji to stop being a hero though. I'm sure he planned this from the start. You guys just assumed this is another Naruto story where Denji will become the Hokage, King of Terror or sth.
Reze love bites...
>>287516538you. only you can fix yourself.
>>287516591Why not add the eye patch?
War devil in this nuWorld should be full powered right cause Pochita wasn't there to eat her anymore? So who will be the nuKOT War or Death?
>>287516580Denji no longer being Chainsaw Man isn't the issue.It's the whole later half or so of Part 2 that's the problem.Fujimoto was definitely building towards this ending and the broad plot points.But when it came time to draw and write them, he shit the bed.
>>287516515How is it a perfect dream world? Denji remained a diseased slave and a simp. He's unironically better off dead and body thrown into the dumpster after the reset. Not that the whole universe reset makes any sense in the first place. So much potential wasted RREEEEE!!1!
>>287516666He admitted himself in Look Back that he lost motivation for manga already.
>>287516560I remember those two weeks of spamming about how Makima was about to return, and the OP of the last thread before the final chappy dropping being a Makima one.
>>287516690Look Back was well written and looked great.Early Part 2 looked fantastic, was as well written as Part 1, and was paced very nicely.Fujimoto clearly had plenty of passion at first.It was only around the time of the Church Arc when things went downhill.
>>287516740Makima will return in the epilog.
>>287516751Pochita erasing himself messed up the timelines making them mixed up together and created a world with two Control devils Makima and Nayuta existing at the same time... how'd you like this?Makima won't give a fuck for Denji this time though.
>>287516740Nayuta is just as much Makima as the "Power" from the last chapter is the Power from part 1.
>>287516751>>287516874If Fujimoto insisted on the reset ending, I think a better way to do it would have been to have Makima still be around and in charge of PS.But have her inherit Nayuta's feelings of love for Denji so that she finds herself caring for him without knowing exactly why.
I think Fujimoto transitioning between part 1 and part 2 may have negatively impacted his writing.
>>287516981I think be suffered from burnout.He seemed very ambitious at the beginning of Part 2, but couldn't maintain the quality.
>>287516538Get a hobby.
>>287516981>I think Fujimoto transitioningit's a known fact
>>287516623Because nu-ji isn't my Denji.
>>287517056I'm glad Togata stayed a woman because if she could transition, she'd look all fucked up like Ellen Page.
>>287517075this dead ship will never be canon no matter how many times you spam it here either.same shit is true for asaden whale shippers. lmaoing @ all of you
Fujimoto will fill volume 24 with 20 pages of omake
>>287517374And all of them will be incomprehensible chicken scrawls.
>>287517374oh my god denji I'm the gun fiend
>>287517293In the end, all ships were crackships
>>287517293You're a salty Yoshiden shipper you have no saying here.
>>287517374I have this feeling that he is going to troll everyone with volume 24
I rewatched the Reze movie and it was better than I remembered. They only honestly didn't need to go that hard for this arc but I'm glad they did
Could Angel impregnate a woman without killing her?
>>287517572>didn't need to go that hard for this arcThey absolutely needed to go that hard after the universally reviled first season. If the Reze movie hadn't been a complete critical and commercial slam dunk there likely would've been no salvaging the CSM anime.
>>287517640Artificial insemination, I guess? Unless every bit of him sucks up lifespan, then he'd just kill the egg before it could root in the endometrium.
>>287517662This. It was the perfect arc for a comeback like that too, since it was self-contained enough that it could be a good entry point for people new to the series.
Let's post headcanons that have high chance to happen in this new timeline because of ... butterfly effects or sth..I'll start,Reze is not an orphan but a daughter of a Russian billionaire instead.Quanxi is straight and now she's married to Kishibe and a happy mother of 7 kids.Beam is a woman...Kobeni's mother now prefers daughters and forced Nobana to be a hoe instead.You like?
>>287517782Don't careDon't carePeakDon't care
I have faith the anime will redeem Part 2
>>287517556I hope so.Do something that will fuck with everyone's heads.Like make FC real or some shit.
>>287517782This makes me really want to see their new lives now since all kind of insane whatifs can happen now.
>>287517782Yoru is dating China Devil
>>287517912did she eat a melted kitkat or something? The fuck is wrong with her lips here?
>>287517293Not sure what you're talking about, chapter 97 ended on a hopeful note and Reze's alive and immortal, there's all the hope in the worldIts too bad the story ended there, I would've liked some more chainsaw man, but I understand that it might have been for the best that way

>>287518290I'm fine with waiting if they can keep the quality of the movie. The last few arcs of P1 have a lot of crazy stuff that really deserves to be animated properly.

>>287524576>Want to tell me what part of what I said was wrongThe part where you said Reze arc is better than the rest of Part 1
I hope Asa is wearing lots of cute outfits in the final volume omake.
>>287524591Like powerfags forgave 100+ chapters of slop because their filler character appeared in the ending?
>>287524652Power appeared in more than one arc though
>>287516156>Headcanon
>>287524629I didn't say it was better than the rest of part 1, though personally I like it best. Just IntAss, which is all the next part of the anime is confirmed to adapt so far.
>>287524703Not in any meaningful capacity
>>287511277maybe
>>287521569I'm afraid she'll have to wait her turn.
>>287521697>CSM legacy is telling the reader to keep dreamingMore like: "keep dreaming because your life will always be shit and the only happiness you'll achieve will be in your dreams, not in reality, you faggot"
>>287524779Maybe you should try reading the manga>>287524752Reze arc is not better than IntAss>>287524969>More like [HEADCANON]Try reading the manga
>>287523742>>287523966Even if the fans, Denji, and even Fujimoto forget about her, I never will. As long as I live, she will always be in my mind and in my heart.
>>287524969>keep dreaming because your life will always be shit and the only happiness you'll achieve will be in your dreams, not in reality, you faggotok, let's assume fujimoto meant to convey EXACTLY this... was he wrong, in your case? no? then kneel to his writing, either way.
>>287524996Kill yourself P, you "liked" the ending because your smelly waifu appeared in it.
>>287525145And you hate the ending because your waifu did not
>>287524996>Reze arc is not better than IntAssI uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh disagree
>>287525171Its your right, but it's objectively wrongThe Darkness panel alone was bigger than the Reze arc before the movie
the first couple mini-arcs of csm were actually the best, which is why the anime raping all the character out of them is such a tragedy.
>>287525134I can't believe this is real now, the only difference is that Denji simply forgot about Reze all at once, not "slowly".
>>287524996>Reze arc is not better than IntAssEh, IntAss is good but I wouldn't rank it that high.
>>2875252901 - Gun2 - Control3/4 - IntAss4/3 - Reze5 - P1/P2 intros
>>287525263I will never forgive fujimoto.
>>287525202Yeah, but this whole arc is kind of "generic" to me. It's far from bad, but it's an arc I could see happening in JJK or any other shonen manga, while arcs like Reze's and Aki's are more personal and intimate for the characters, and that's what made Fujimoto stand out from the other mangaka, this before he decided to turn all the characters into plot devices or NPCs without any personality, of course.
>>287525317Tied rank seems fair. Darkness Devil's intro is probably the single most iconic moment in the entire manga (maybe one other scene from the control arc), and Aldo's random side story is probably the most kino single chapter. Reze arc had the best romance and the best fight. So both have strong points.
>>287525317P opinions = completely discarded
>>287525445>and Aki'syou could never see 'protagonist is forced to fight the possessed body of his friend' happening in jjk?
>>287525317Shad > Reze > Gun > IntAss > Control > Eternity > BatYes, it's extremely subjective, I know.
>>287525445Funny you say that when i have been reading other shonen that had a arc very similar to Reze>>287525446In my personal opinion, i think IntAss has a slight edge over Reze because of all the crazy hell and primal stuff that happens, Power being funny, the kino Aldo chapter, the creative panelling, Makima's villain reveal and Denji being a completely mad man to defeat Darkness SantaI didn't care that much about the romance in Reze, but it did had the best fight.
>>287525446intass is a collection of well done moments, but it doesn't have as as solid of a through line as the other arcs imo
>>287525322Yeah, me too. My cope was that no matter how bad Part 2 and the ending were, I'd still have Part 1. I just didn't expect Fujimoto to ruin even Part 1, with Denji basically forgetting everything he went through, including his loved ones like Aki and Reze
>>287525491https://desuarchive.org/a/search/image/UyKl_BPHDZTTZHy7Nyu4zw/>movie newfag>snkekTruly grim
>>287525517I mean, that didn't happen because Gojo never fought Kenjaku.
>>287525532Ehhhh, hell was cool but I didn't really care for what led up to it or what came after in general. Quanxi was dull and Santa is probably the second weakest part 1 arc boss after bat. I would give the edge to Reze because of what this anon said here >>287525543, it's much more cohesive.
>>287525532oh fuck i forgot international assassins is the ''Makima is listening'' arc
what do neets do when they've consumed all media that is good? a neet should have plenty of time to do that before 30 if they're neeting it up between 18-30. what do they do then? do they hitch their wagon to a singular manga and breakdown when it (their life) ends?
>>287525613>PThis is the real grim.
>>287525741>still coping Impressive
>>287525662i would say how santa is handled in the climax of int ass is much worse than bat & leech honestly.
asa really let herself go
>>287509508Why are people assuming that the Gun Devil didn't attack people around the world in this new timeline? Is there a panel explaining why he attacked people that I haven't read? Was the reason he attacked humanity really because of Makima/Pochita, or is that just fan theory and speculation?
>>287525738>what do neets do when they've consumed all media that is goodThat's gonna happen any time soon. You really underestimate how much stuff is out there. True, very little of it is something you'll end up loving, and a lot of it is crap, but if you keep looking you'll always find stuff you can enjoy. You gotta expand your horizons.
I NEED yandere Reze gf.
>>287525993I have several friends that refuse to read shit that is currently being serialized because they "don't want to experience another Berserk".It may be a little harsh but I fully believe people like that are cowards. I read Chainsaw Man since the Bat arc and had an amazing time for 7 years.Was the ending disappointing? Yeah, it was. But that doesn't change what a fun ride the manga was in general.None of my buddies experienced that out of fear of it being "another Berserk" and even now say they're vindicated by the ending being disappointing.Bunch of pussies.>tl;dr expanding your horizions is good
>>287526441Fujimoto is sort of the opposite of Miura.He kept the manga going even when he got burnt out.Although the quality suffered as a result.Miura was such a perfectionist that he was unable to finish Berserk because he wanted it to be as perfect as he could make it.
>>287526441>tl;dr expanding your horizions is good>still sits in a chainsaw man thread when it ended
>>287526441these kind of people were never really appreciating fiction, they can just follow along with what they're 'supposed' to feel at the explicit story beats, like trained animals
>>287526487Chainsaw Man isn't the only manga I've ever read in my life dog. I just like the discussion about the series.Currently reading Tower Dungeon and Kagurabachi.
Part 1- 9/10Part 2- 6/10
Nayuta kinda reminds me of Toph.
>>287525741Not only Power tanked that, but that also never happened
>>287509600cool
>>287526485miura would've finished it if he didnt literally die, althoughbeit
>>287526585>Part 2- 6/10generous
P will kill himself after the volume is released.
>>287526608toph is a whore slut who has many bodies, nayuta is pure.
>>287526608who
>>287527265>fujimoto's art ever being this good
RIZZji
all my friends have left the general...
>>287527363We just have to wait for the volume and anime...
When is the next chappy releasing?
>>287527265>HE has a huge as..ESL or trannypilled
>>287527261https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AEI_ymhgRtA
The extra pages in the last volume will be about Asa/Reze and Denji.
>>287527231Yeah, I mainly rated it that high due to the strength of Part 2's first third.
>>287527202>miura would've finished it if he didnt literally dieWe'll never know for sure.
>>287527791how about this, if togashi ever finishes hunter hunter before croaking well say miura could've/would've, too
>>287527771>extra pages in the last volumeare these confirmed or cope?
>>287527820It's confirmed, there's 16 pages left to complete the volume
>>287527820They have to fill up the volume because they need to meet a quota of pages.
>>287527820There are like 20 pages left for the volume, the logical conclusion is that some of them are going to be used as extras or as an epilogue
Fujimoto puts the infamous ending pages onto your desk; (You) are his editor.What carefully chosen words leave your mouth to avert this disaster before it happened?
>>287527957By that point the damage is already done and there is nothing you can do
>>287527805>if togashi ever finishes hunter hunter before croakingI don't like those fucking odds.
>>287527957Told him to write more chapters in the new world in order for ending feel so rushed and abrupt.
>>287527957I would have slapped his shit in a long time before the ending desu.Probably when he killed off Nayuta.
>>287527957Make him write more chapters in the new comfy timeline
People that think Togashi or Miura would have finished their Manga's are the same as those that think GRRM is ever going to finish ASOIAF.It ain't gonna happen.Not conventionally.
>>287527448
>WATTU BIG PROBREMRU WITTU TIMERINE RESET? MAVEL COMIX DO IT ALL TIME? YOU NO RIKE?
>>287528082>main character's "pet" friend sacrifices himself so the timeline would reset and they would forget about himTakopi did it better last year
>>287528072Perfect
>>287528084
>>287527957Impossible to salvage the manga after 231. The last point from where you could pull off a somewhat decent ending is when Denji invites Asa to his world.
i don't think i understood the big lebowski, because fujiwater clearly saw something different in it, maybe i should rewatch the movie before lambasting the ending of csm anymore...
>>287527957"Just make Part 3 and it'll be ok. Maybe."
>>287527957>What carefully chosen words leave your mouth to avert this disaster before it happened?"I think you should make Power's ass gigantic for no reason, and then dedicate 1/4 of the chapter to showcasing it to the reader".That's what I told him a week before the chappy release.

>>287528377>>287528496anime takes so long to make that by the time part 1 of csm and all of jjk pre-modulo is fully animated my mappa there'll be new series to fill the void. he'll never have to start production on shart poo or modulo if he doesn't feel like it.

Hi anon, can't wait to see in the next Chainsaw Man cha-
threads just dying, it was a fun ride (mostly) brosgoodbye
>>287529563haha silly kima, chappy day isn't until after the weekend!
The lost volume pages can't come fast enough.
>>287510960SnK at least you can still start a thread and people will come out of the woodwork to express their anger. So you can at least say the ending didn't kill peoples desire to talk about the series, even if it's in a negative way. CSM on the other hand just fucking died. The ending absolutely killed any desire to talk about it in the fanbase and erased any cultural catchet it had. I chalk it up to HOW they were bad. SnK's ending may have been bad, but the author was at least trying. He may have written himself into a corner by refusing to commit to either course, but he earnestly tried to write himself out of it, even if the end result was a wet turd. And he tried to stay true to the series themes and follow every narrative thread to its (bad) conclusion even as he put out a stinker. CSM on the other hand? The author just gave up, and had obviously given up for quite some time before hand. He didn't even try to write an actual ending. He just "Rocks fall everyone dies, Ryuki timeloop". No artistic integrity whatsoever. Just said fuck it to every plot thread or setup that had happened in the entire manga, didn't even try to stay thematically consistent. Makes you go "If he didn't care why should I?"
>>287528526New series? Like what? All the new manga I see coming out now are flops
>>287529697No SnK thread even survives 100 posts, retard
>>287529697then go back to your snkuck thread
>>287529684>The lost volume pages can't comeindeed, they won't.
>>287529563Sometimes I just realize that I used to be so happy talking to all these anons, waiting for the next chapter, thinking about how great the CSM girls were. Now I barely think about it and feel old again. I come here out of a learned instinct from seeing the shortcut on my home page on my browser.
there's not going to be any extra content lol

What are instagram accounts you follow? I want to currate my timeline so that it doesnt show self improvement engagement baits anymore. I only follow like 10 artists/gamedev accounts there but when i check on it shitty posts like "gen z bad, gen z is fucked" or "traits of immature and unsuccessful people" or "this is why companies doesn't want you"
>>287526031Read Gokurakugai
>>287528198I'll never get over the cope from Asafags saying Reze couldn't come back because Denji was making a world for him and Asa. My fucking sides.
>>287530392It's so fucking likely and I hate it.
>>287530449we evangelion now
Does Nayuta ever get horny?
I'm going to watch the movie again tonight, I wish we could go back.
>>287530968kind of insane how he ended the manga so soon after the movie being such a smash hit + no anime announcement at all
>>287531118I don't know if it's accidental or intentional in some way, but Fujimoto always makes the worst decisions that affect the hype the movie could generate.He was so consistent about it that I actually kind of suspected it was on purpose
Do we even know if the ending affected the sales, or will we find out in the near future? I mean, part 2 ended and almost nobody gave a damn beyond the Dandadan author, truly the loyal ex-assistant...
>>287531118>no anime announcement at allSeriously, how long are we going to have to wait for season 2? You would think they'd get it out the door as quickly as possible after the movie.
>>287531192The guy is truly a retarded contrarian>>287531227We will find out with volume 24 sales
>>287531227Anon, Jump+ doesn't have authors comments hence they have mentioned nothing and aren't obligated to comment like in WSJ.

Man, there really is nothing like CSM right now. Where do I find my dose of quirky B-movie schlock now?
do you love asa mitaka?
>>287510979turns out dead internet theory wasn't so farfetched and we were talking to bots all this time.now the retarded posts can't be ignored
>>287532103im real anon
>>287532103Makes me wonder how many unique posters 4chan gets these days.
>>287517556>>287517827inb4 there's no extra pages, the volume will the that short
>>287530392It will be panels from the Reze arc redrawn with other characters in her place.
>>287531923Yes <3
>>287532140Kima's neck eroticWhat a gorgeous woman
>>287530968I'll never let her go...
>>287532205It will be 20 extra pages of random omakes, each accompanied by a different girl of the series wearing a cow bikini.
>>287532681Himeno boobs on my cute virgin face.
>>287532648Me neither, my stomach's been churning for the past few days, understanding now it's truly over. I have no hope for a part 3 either..
>>287530747Denji saying he was going to save Asa from Yoru, only to later want to have sex with Yoru and forget about Asa, will never stop being hilarious to me, my comedy manga at its peak.
Reze and Asa should kiss in an epilogue. There we go, salvaged CSM.
>>287532715The worst part is that, besides never knowing Reze's whereabouts after Makima's defeat, we'll also never know her whereabouts after the reset, but she's most likely going through difficult times in Russia.
>>287512099>At the beginning of p2 we already saw him being bored to death with his 'happy' normal life with Nayuta.But his life was neither normal nor happy. It was just another round of everyone dumping their problems on Denji, without providing anything to him.
>>287532756I don't think that fujimoto likes Reze, as much as I hate say say it perhaps it's for the best he never touches her again. I don't want to see how he would ruin her.
>>287511903>The reason Denji can never enjoy his dreams when he reaches them is that his brain is defective,We cannot tell that, because Denji never reached his dreams until the reset. His extremely simple dreams of baseline physical comfort and a woman who cares about him were never satisfied in the main timeline. Not even remotely. >Pochita says this quite clearly. Pochita is shifting blame for his own actions.
>>287532869Honestly, I STILL want a real conclusion for her character, even if it's a terrible one. I'm not satisfied thinking that the most likely scenario is that she's going through hell in Russia.
>>287532951Maybe you're right anon, at least then there would be closure.
>>287532725>Yoru's fucking face.Yoru is so cute.
>>287532913Pochita was standing in for Fujimoto and was basically saying that drawing and writing Chainsaw Man was making him miserable, so it was time to end the manga.
>>287533062Could he not have gone a hiatus?
>>287533114Who knows?Maybe he just didn't want to be tied to Chainsaw Man anymore.
>>287532951Considering this is a sort of idealized world, I'm fairly confident that she's in Japan and either a student, or a part timer at the cafe, or both. Maybe she'll run into a phone booth during one rainy day and meet a clumsy boy with an eyepatch, who knows.
>>287533196This pic makes me want to grope Reze.
>>287533311Everyone is shown to be mostly in the same place they were in their other lives.So I think Reze is still with the Soviet Union and may or may not be a hybrid.
>>287533311I have seen too many female artists drawing fanarts eyepatch Denji with Reze or Asa. Do women like this type of romance setup?
>>287533187Pussy ass bitch nigga
>>287533187A little too late for that
>>287531938Pretty darn cute. Fuji failed her
>>287533480I think at this point fujimoto failed damn near everyone.
>>287509600Yoru is Bucky, anon. She was running around as a headless chicken during the final fight and you couldn't figure it out?
>>287533311in this timeline THE SACRED NORTHERN TERRITORIES were returned to japan so reze is a japanese citizen

>>287535689God save my soul. No matter how much I think I'm over Asa, seeing things like this breaks me down completely.
>>287534492Chang is so lucky, bros....
I want to be held by Reze...
>>287534760The only thing that sustains this general is waifufaggotry. All of us know that Part 2 was garbage and the ending was shit. The only discussion remaining is Rezefags/Powerfags/Makimafags/Asafags discussing what could have been or writing fanfictions about what happens after the ending. Soon even that will fade away.Give it a month or two. Same thing happened with /snk/.
>>287509508Final reminder ever that Yoshida is a gay kekold
>>287538025Jannies should start nuking these threads on sight. Mentally ill waifufags don't realize that the author himself is purposefully shitting on them with this ending but they'll keep the cope and delusions going for as long as possible.
>>287538025Lez be real, it's mostly just Rezekeks at this point
>>287537498What's the difference here?
>>287538497This is also true. It's so funny how most Rezefaggots were acting all smug and cocky just a few months ago during the movie hype and now they're completely mindbroken and buckbroken by the ending. Their irrelevant waifu never came back and her last canonical appearance outside of a flashback is being chopped to pieces by Pochita at a graveyard. KWAB.
Asaden victory
>>287538497I was going to refute this but it's sadly true now. Everyone else already accepted the dogshit ending and left, it's only a matter of time before even the most dedicated babs yield to the complete self-destruction of Chainsaw Man. Maybe they were the real winners in the end, they really did escape the enshittification of shart poo.
>>287538358It's copy pasted from another anime which is 10/10

>>287539059No. Let this shit die.
I wish epilog will show us Asa's new bf...
seeing the huge decline in illustration quality from part 1 to part 2 was a bummer :/
>>287539059Yes but only after this one reaches bump limitKishibe (Prime) > Kishibe (Old) > Denji (Power contract) (not as experienced) > Aki > yoshida (octopus contract)
Power?The best girl.
I HATE fuj*moto. Genuinely.
>>287539100Not this kind of power levels
Fuck Makima.
>>287538906>"D-Don't like it don't talk about it!"Weak.
>>287539233Funny thing is you're dilating because people keep talking about it
New thread new thread >>287539228
>>287539256Nobody's talking about it. The only thing left in the general is waifufag stuff.
>>287539233>>"D-Don't like it don't talk about it!"Why is this such a difficult concept for schizos to grasp?
>>287539252'kima would literally never give a fuck about this. she only cares about pochita, not denji.
>>287539283She’s just annoyed because Reze is touching the chainsaw cord, she probably hasn’t even noticed Denji is in the picture.
>>287538854Which one?
>>287539849Im not saying. All i can say is that it's extremely underrated and you can't find it in the heap of garbage using filters. If you ever watch it by chance you will know at the very end that it's literally the chainsaw man ending all over again but in that anime it actually makes sense, not that in chainsaw man it doesn't make any sense but from a purely technical standpoint it's much more polished and presented, maybe this is why people are assmad at chainsaw man because it's not really well explained not that it really ends like that. If you're a cool person like me and you watch cool anime, sooner or later you'll stumble upon it just like i did.
>>287540748Do you think you are special?
>>287541047Don't hate the player, hate the game.
