Why did e-celebs and normies get so attached to this garbage and overhype it? The fact that it basically failed as soon as the first episode was out shows that it was just FOTM. Everyone that was “fans” where basically a bunch of larpers cause literally nobody knew anything about the story except how attractive or quirky the characters was but normies and cosplay sluts knew absolutely nothing about those characters involvement in the story.
Being a bitter contrarian doesn't make you smart or profound.
>everyone that was “fans” whereem entshuldigung maar ni de Engels niet tai gut le
>>290789944It was hyped to be the next big thing after SnK was another "it’s not like other battle/adventure shonen" series. Makima got tons of fan art as well. Part 1 was good but overall I wouldn’t say the series lived up to the hype it got.
>>290789944>>290790057Makima is still kinda popular and CSM has a good design, but this is what happens when you over sell and over hype something. Kimetsu and JJK success appeared out of nowhere, the threads were 4 fags talking about them and barely reaching bump limit
>>290789944As for the normies; I think it was their actual first Manga and they got to be along for the ride since it was ongoing. The ending really soured the soup but don't act like CSM didn't hit a sweet spot for the early 2020s.It's the anime-onlys and the Indians I feel sorry for. Every day there's a new "do yu think Reze and Denji get married??" thread and they have no idea. No clue. None. Sad.
>>290789976How a my a contrarian? After the shit ending of part 2 everyone are agreeing that it is not as good as what it was hyped up to be. If anything you are the contrarian for still sucking fujimotos dick.
>>290790785Something about chainsaw man was really popular with the jeets and South American. Was it the constant main focus on sex and the overly fetishized female archetypes?
>>290790930I think the internet just became a smaller world around the same time. I had no idea Mexico loved dragonball like they do until 10 years ago.
>>290789944Because of Firepunch and good early pacing CSM was loved here? Despite what some think /a/ still sets taste because here is still the only place that actually reads/watches new stuff. You really can't find another mainstream English forum that reads the dregs of Jump even if it is just for axe watch.
>>290789944Baby's first manga, appeals to anime haters
>>290789944didn't read or watch this, why didn't she just do this from the start?
>>290789944The fags liked how his previous work was trans inclusive, that's all it takes. For that same reason you should have known he would never make anything good.

>>290791187Umm uhh well you see...
>The fact that it basically failed as soon as the first episode was out shows that it was just FOTMDoes OP know how much Reze movie made?
>>290790860Well have you considered that Part 1 =/= Part 2?Don't answer, I know you're retarded
>>290789944>nobody knew anything about the story except how attractive or quirky the characters wasThat's anime fandoms in a nutshell. From the creator's pov only character design matters. Fans will latch onto a design they like and do the rest of the work for you with headcanon.
>this thread
>>290789944>Everyone that was “fans” where basically a bunch of larpers cause literally nobody knew anything about the story except how attractive or quirky the characters was but normies and cosplay sluts knew absolutely nothing about those characters involvement in the story.That's every single FOTM slop, at least it gives you the excuse to call Onlyfans thots that cosplay Makima a bunch of pedos
>>290790930>>290790966Everybody knows English nowadays and everybody has internet access nowadays so we basically have a monoculture, it's how you get stuff like third worlders putting pronouns in their bios and whining about homophobia and misogyny in anime

Look Back live action highly praised at Venice Film Festival…New oneshots when?
>>290791776Impressive for being the followup of a 12 episode season 3 years ago
>>290791939>Look Back live action
>>290790930Third worlders mainly care about "hype moments" and "aura". It's the first worlders obsessed with sex and fan service due not getting any themselves
>>290791795Actually I think OP makes very similar shitposting threads for JJK as well, along with perhaps dozens of other series total. The formatting of the OP is a dead giveaway for one of these template bait threads, only way it gets more obvious is the title-greentext-provocative question format.
>>290791986>terribly ESL>IMG_ filename formatIt does look like him. Is your shitposter obsessed with the word ''goy'' too?
>>290791973Look Back live action, the latest entry in GODjimoto's (the most influential mangaka since Go Nagai btw) multimedia legacy
>>290792070Not particularly but he's always going on about fans and fanbases to bait people and will semi-commonly use a phrasing relating to a fanbase "defending" whatever nitpick he's using to troll.
>>290789944You're clearly weren't there for the weekly dump threads, but csm was almost universally praised on /a/ once upon a time>inb4 some fag tries to rewrite historyArchives exist. Go check them out yourselfThen anime came out and normalfags with it. The "hype beasts" retardation happened after the anime was announced, which on itself turned out to be a disappointment.Then the manga also went to down the gutter with part II.And since then everyone on this board's been shitting on csm nonstop.This means, that the only way you could have gotten hyped for this series is if you were a filthy tourist.
>>290792247>but csm was almost universally praised on /a/ once upon a timeAlso Fire Punch
Part 2 was a massive step down from Part 1 but I have faith Mappa will improve on it, making the manga look like a basic storyboard for the final product
>>290792247>And since then everyone on this board's been shitting on csm nonstop.It's more that most of the people who read the manga in threads on /a/ has left and the new crowd consists of child tourists who hate CSM because it's popular and they have to pretend to be elitist.
>>290789944the first 97 chapters were pretty goodasatroons, makima fart fetishists, and fujimoto himself set the series back about 30 years. Now it's legacy is just the porn and people debating whether the ending was good or not.
>>290792295Nah, Part 2 was just straight up dogshit
>>290792292Everyone is secretly hoping for this
>>290792247>compelled by autism to randomly change post's wording>forget to edit rest of the sentence so it doesn't look like ESL babbleThis dishonor cannot be undone.
>>290792292>>290792525I doubt they will put much effort into it or even make it at all, considering the massive decline in sales
>>290792340Powerfag why do you always have to make everything about yourself. We already have a thread here. Just talk about chainsaw man. You don’t need to answer to OP
>>290789944Because people love garbage these days. Just look how much they love to consoom slop. Netflix slop, tiktok slop, korean slop, marvel slop, woke slop, etc.csm and jjk were two pieces of garbage literally chosen by this garbage loving zeitgeist.
>>290792748>marvel slop, woke slopOh look another tourist from /pol/ (or the same one replying to himself for the 20th time in this thread)
>>290792748If people loved garbage they would absolutely love you remember that always thankfully that's 100% not true
Sweat justice.
Part 1 was good. Hating on it because part 2 was shit only helps you expose yourself as a tourist bandwagonner
>>290792292You can't in good faith excuse the shit Denji and Yoru did to Asa. No matter how you present the facts of the story. This is not up for debate. You're missing the reason why people are disappointed by part 2. I won't waste more time explaining it.
>>290789944COVID era. People just needed a hype bandwagon to latch onto
>>290793074Denji literally saved Asa
>>290793103*chainsaw man saved AsaDenjiman doomed Asa to be a slave to her trauma. You simply fail to understand the story.
btw final fight is Pochita and Yoru having gore devil sex so that means Denji's dog cucked him.
>>290793210Try reading the manga
>>290793259Sorry fag, I don't have time to keep bumping your garbage general. Rot away.
>>290793278I accept your concession
POWER GOT DESTROYED!
>>290791847>but she's actually a man In a woman's bodyWhy bother lying, that's a direct quote, trannypunch was always made for fags.
>>290793378She's complaining about inconsequential shit to a guy that lives on fire 24/7Fujimoto also called her a crazy woman, also a direct quote
>>290793259How did Denji go from this to cucking Asa with her own body...
>>290793409All the trannies are literally praising the quote representation on the fag site. You are just coping because you are objectively wrong.
>>290793449That never happened>>290793465>All the trannies are literally praising the quote representation on the fag siteThat's their media iliteracy + your retardation for going to a fag site and caring what trannies say instead of reading the manga and the author comments>You are just coping because you are objectively wrongSays the low iq retard taking tranny headcanon over the author
>>290793487I'm obviously not going to read something this gay, it's the first result that shows up in the search after the paragraph explaining how the character is literally trans. The author is the one who put in all the gay lines anon.
Part 1 was honestly a really nice little novelty Shonen that mixed things up and did what it was meant to do. Part 2 was the antithesis of part 1.
>>290793549>Part 2 was the antithesis of part 1.Poop from a butt?
>>290793537And since they think he is "on their side" they are going to overhype it no matter how shit it is, a textbook case of a vocal minority.That's obviously the only explanation, no one with any taste is going to like this trash.
>>290793537>>290793746>i'm not going to read it because i went out of my way to look trannies talking about it on twitter>>>/v/
>>290793737yeah the butt is nice to look at until it shits out a turd
>>290789944Part1 has Makima so its great. Part2 doesn't, so it flopped and sank. That simple.
>>290789944For the exact same reason why Naruto and Bleach were overhyped 20 years ago. It was literal children who don't know any better reading this crap and acting like it's a masterpiece.
>>290794029I bet you read something really gay like yurislop
>>290793780>yeah the butt is nice to look at until it shits out a turd

>>290793776Most people don't like the gay shit that you like since they are not gay like you, faggot.
>>290794366Then why are you going out of your way to see what trannies talk about on twitter? You sound closeted
>>290794125>t. Shartpoo schizo.
>>290794456>he never read the mangamakima is literally shit
>>290789944People kept glazing Fuji for being insane and kept going on and on about how unhinged CSM is. It’s this mentality that resulted in so many readers defending the shitty cliffhangers and lack of payoffs in part 2>brooo, Fujimoto is such a subversive insane genius. >it’s shit on purpose blah blah blah
>>290794474>he never read the mangaI knew shartpoo was doomed while schizos like you were praising this slop.
>>290794393>Why are you finding proof that I'm wrong?Cope and seethe.

>>290795099You're the one that look for, talk with, and live amongst trannies, not me
>>290794863Genuinely SAD but also funny af.
>>290794863what is he trying
>>290789944In the simplest terms possible, because it's dirty. All the main characters are pathetic and/or jaded. There's no concept of honor or dignity anywhere in the story and the morality is completely flexible. It's the post-modern slop normalfags(especially leftists) love. It's the same reason Yani Neko is popular, it's dirty and serves as a medium to desecrate the cultural perception of cat girls. Something to that effect. Very freudian.
>>290795692>It's the post-modern slop normalfags(especially leftists) love. It's the same reason Yani Neko is popularHoly election tourist
>>290795692Based kurapintellectual
>>290795533To pass as a woman
>>290795692Kinda. It makes sense for devils to be amoral and evil but you need at least the MC to be a contrast with said devils. (Early part2 works because Asa is that MC)That is why Shitji was the perfect MC to destroy this manga, because he is a gigantic piece of amoral and pathetic trash. A lead so boring that it bore the very author of this story.
>>290795727Shoe fit didn't it faggot
>>290789976fpbpPart 1 was great and a breath of fresh air
>>290796051...with its legacy ruined by Part 2
>>290796175No way. Part 2 was so boring that everyone will forget about it and Fujimoto's legacy will be preserved.
>>290789944This mostly only applies to part 1 but>Cool visuals like the darkness devil reveal>Over the top violence that often isn't included in most modern manga>A grimdark setting that was fresh and interesting>The dynamic of Aki, Denji, and Power being probably the best version of low energy, high energy, high energy character in modern anime (Think of Sasuke, Naruto, and Sakura dynamic or Megumi, Itadori, Nobura but actually fleshed out)>Actual witchcraft and devil magic that, not just gay ass magic circles found in other manga>An actual story (This was dropped in Part 2)Basically, Part 1 was pretty cool. I was a Denji defender for the longest time until about midway through Part 2 where the whole manga became an absolute mess. I, for one, actually liked him as the main character because he was probably the WORST vehicle for following along the actual plot of the manga and I found that funny. He never sought out information, answers to the world around him, or tried to progress any goal beyond sex. When we were being drip fed lore, that was funny as fuck to me. But then we stopped getting any more insights into anything about the world and it all went to shit. There are so many abandoned plotlines that it's insane.
>>290795692Go back
>>290796863Not to defend the shitty writing, but this is a clear case of the readers and author seeing Denji in completely different lights. I wanted Denji to grow and change too but Fujimoto didn’t but he didn’t become some sort of cautionary tale. Denji is just a gag character for Fuji to mess with. The guy has a femdom fetish and the MC is just his vehicle to express it. Everyone kept reading too much into CSM and thought it was deeper than it was. Fuji never cared about the cycle of trauma shit and there was nothing deeper to Denji’s sex obsession. When he wanted to have a harem, he meant it. He’s a horny teenager that wanted 10 girlfriends. People thought he had some plan to stop yoru but in actuality he just wanted to have sex not caring about Asa
>>290796927I already have the hunterchad thread open, I'm just here to laugh at the coping chainsaworms.
>>290796046Not really, no
>>290795911Part 1 success disproves your notion>>290789976FPBP
>>290796863I mainly agree aside from >or tried to progress any goal beyond sex.This is not completely true
>>290795692Trvclear armageddon >>290795727
>>290797056And you know what? That's fine with me. He's not Luffy or Naruto, he doesn't give a fuck about some grand goal beyond living comfortably. But the problem stemmed from the fact that we could only ever see the world from his POV. And that was fine, when we actually got some exposition via other characters, but in Part 2 answers, lore, and worldbuilding just dropped altogether. What actually are devils and why do they exist? What made chainsaws so special and how did they once remove entire concepts from existence? How long has humanity been at war with Devils? Was there any sort of final solution or was the plan to forever fight them? Was there a "Devil Devil"? Where the FUCK was Kishibe? Basically, shit just became directionless and having an already directionless main character didn't help.
>the same schizophrenics>the exact same posts>months/years apartLate stage alcoholism type syndrome , it's not funny anymore, you need help
>>290796175Part 2? Pochita deleted it
Chainsaw man?
>>290797487He deleted Part 1 too so this whole manga became meaningless
>>290792292And I would prefer If they completely drop this shit and put the extra resources, time, and manpower into adapting the rest of Dorohedoro, but I'm aware that I never get what I want.
>>290797113>>290635628 >hunter''chad'' is mexican
>>290798387Why would Mappa drop their most profitable IP for Dorohedoro that almost flopped?
I thought the Nostradamus thing would lead up to something big but it didn't. I think he just got bored and wanted to finish the manga already. Fire Punch is better desu.
>>290798439>I thought the Nostradamus thing would lead up to something big but it didn'tthe world literally ended
>>290798422I'm not saying that's ever going to happen. I only said that this is what I want.
>>290789944Chainsaw Man would never make it onto a list of my favorite manga, let alone my favorite shonen. Its popularity is deserved almost exclusively because of Part 1, which was genuinely one of the best modern shonen. The problem is that Part 2 completely screws everything up, and on top of that, it makes up the majority of the story. So yeah, Chainsaw Man is pretty mediocre, to say the least.
>>290798989You like slop like Kagurabachi so Chainsaw Man not making into your favorite manga list means its actually good
>>290792292Part 2 is a disaster even at the conceptual level. MAPPA would have to do a Bleach TYBW-style adaptation just to make Part 2 decent. Hell, thinking about it, no — they’d have to completely rewrite the story and make some extremely drastic changes.
>>290793259>>290793286At least try reading the manga you’re defending. Denji wanted to have sex with Asa’s body while it was possessed by a genocidal Devil who had ruined her life. Yes, he wanted to save her before, but he simply changed his mind when he remembered that Yoru had promised him sex.Yes, he stopped Asa from killing Bucky, but that only happened because he literally lost his memories. The Denji we knew would have wanted to have sex with Yoru regardless of whose body she was in, without caring that it was Asa’s body.Denji deserves just as much credit for being a “good guy” by saving Asa from her trauma as Light deserves credit for helping the police after losing his memories of being Kira.
>>290799299Asa consented, try reading the manga
>>290791011>/a/ still sets taste because here is still the only place that actually reads/watches new stuff.Shounen Jump is nothing new
>>290795692I genuinely don’t understand why zoomers are so obsessed with “HURR DURR, SUBVERTING EXPECTATIONS” when that alone doesn’t make a good story. I’m afraid Chainsaw Man is going to end up like The Boys: a passing fad that got popular for going against “clichés” and will eventually be forgotten.
>>290799628chainsaw man doesnt subvert expectations
>>290799332No, Yoru SAID that Asa consented, but honestly, I also prefer the idea that she’s a cuck who actually wants her crush to have sex with the Devil who ruined her life, it's funny as fuck
>>290799888>I also prefer the idea that she’s a cuckyea microdick we know you love cuckoldry you let everyone know that when you spammed interracial cuck porn in these threads
>>290799114>You like slop like Kagurabachi Is that a panel from Kagurabachi? I had no idea. I just grabbed this meme to make fun of Chainsawfags like you.
