Tumblr is having bespoke Chainsaw Man takes most of the internet could only dream of

CSM P2 rereading thread, part 1!

Oh god two chapters in and this thread already this long… hooo this is going to be a Project. It’s such a strong opening to the part and already so loaded with set up for the ending to it. Fujimoto never lost his way or gave up earlier getting towards the end. It was always the destination.

Still thinking and loving the idea of it more and more. It feels almost like an intentional rejecting of shonen ideas. Its saying that Denji could never have a normal life because he was the protagonist of a shonen manga.Only by removing the protagonist status is he able to just live a life. Its rad

honestly, i completely disagree. chapter 232 leaves denji seeming far more confident and fulfilled than he ever was during part 2. his yearning is no longer the engine behind an apocalyptic narrative fate. he has been liberated.

The Denji Show #crowart #chainsawman #csm

real love is being able to be near someone without fear, stress or caring about how you are perceived. it’s being able to completely shed ideas of how you should relate to each other designated by the roles put upon you by the world. Yoshida reminded Denji of that kind of love.

Perfect line to show the core difference between Denji and Asa, no matter how hard Asa tries to buy into the “ignorance is bliss” mindset that Denji encouraged her to have she can’t. It’s why she doesn’t hesitate to open the door, why she chases the monster in the alley instead of locking it away

now the men must make war amongst each other to enforce universal male yaoification

the identity of the second chainsaw man has haunted me for years... fujimoto, your labyrinth will NEVER make me forget about this sneaky rat. THEY DONT EVEN HAVE THE SAME HAIR COLOR, FUJIMOTO. I'M STILL ON YOUR DAMN TRAIL.

i forgot to remember to forget

the nail fiend! here's my prediction: the "tokyo's revival" school festival, which takes place on the day of apocalypse, will be an organized religious assembly. nail fiend (stated to work with children) will return, and thus reenact the crucifixion of jesus on a preordained subject. i am SO fr.

i heard the sandwich guy was acquitted. i bet he went up to the judge and said "i'll have an acquittal sandwich with lettuce and tomatoes!" or something like that. i'm just kidding, i doubt he did that. this post is just for fun really

they dont see what you and i see, fujimoto...

absurd proposal: the entirety of part 2's narrative structure has been deliberately written by death, who acts as the co-author in CSM's metafiction. she is *truly* immortal. no matter her efforts, she can't destroy herself or her role in the story. she can't live normally, either. she's stuck.
